Länchag Torma is a Buddhist charity ritual for the offering of ritual cakes and water to Nagas, Pretas, Yakshas and other classes of non-humans. The ritual is intended to help purify the negative actions we have committed against these beings through polluting of air, space, forest and water bodies. These actions are held to cause unwanted effects such as skin-related diseases, bankruptcy, chronic ailments, and many others. This ritual, in its more condensed version, involves meditative visualisation, recitation of mantras and incantations, extending of offerings to enlightened beings, and giving of blessed medicinal pills or dough-balls and water to lesser beings such as Nagas and hungry spirits.
