Buddhism

edit

Ochurdyap studied medicine with Mongolian lamas, and he also studied Buddhist ethics.[6] In 1885, Ochurdyap created a yurt-shrine, where a prayer service was held on June 12 in the concelebration of six lamas. After the prayer service, horse races with prizes were held.[6] Buddhist lamas were preparing Ochurdyap to accept the title of "Kelin Lama" and for the position of abbot of the Chui shrine.[7]

Kara-Kebeks

edit

During the "Uprising of 60 Heroes" many Tuvan families were ruined. Some of the families fled to Altai, namely to the limits of the Second Chui Volost. The Tuvan families were accepted by Ochurdyap and separated them into a separate clan of Kara-Kebeks.[4]
