What is a horse mud stone? It is said to be used in Buddhism to ward off evil spirits.

The original name of Manishi is "Ma Zhishi". This is based on the eight-character motto "Om. Ma Zhimou is the "yes" of Tathagata Heart Mantra III, and the word "Ma Zhi" is added in front of it. "Ma Zhishi" is a traditional custom handed down from the ancient elephant era. Many customs and lifestyles of modern Tibetan compatriots, such as weddings, funerals, astronomical calendars, medical literature, song and dance paintings, choosing houses for tourism, choosing auspicious dates, exorcising evil spirits, and divination, etc. To some extent, it still follows the ancient tradition of Yongzhong Benjiao. There are many unique ways for Tibetan compatriots to pray for blessings, such as turning to the sacred mountain, worshiping the sacred lake, laying the wind horse flag, hanging colorful flags, carving stone scriptures, putting mani piles, playing divination, offering sacrifices to horses, butter sculptures and even using prayer wheels. These are also the religious heritages of the ancient elephant Xiong Yong [1].

Yongzhong believes that the world is made up of five elements: earth, water, fire, wind and air. Everything in the world, whether it is mountains and rivers, stones, rivers, lakes, land, trees or even every small stone, has natural spirituality, and spirituality is a unique force of nature. In order to make all living beings understand the world outlook, outlook on life and truth, since Dunba Xin Rao Mi Wo Buddha, the ancestors of Yongzhong Benjue have applied many convenient methods to save all living beings. For example, use the power of nature (earth, water, wind, fire, etc.) to cultivate the wisdom and strength of all beings. Such as prayer wheel, wind horse flag, Ma Zhishi (the earliest Mani stone) and so on. These ways of benefiting all beings were later accepted and imitated by other inheritors of Tibetan Buddhism, and have been passed down to this day, becoming a unique cultural phenomenon in Tibet.
