suck out some thick black mucus like substance from the body without making any cut or harming the body. Once done they will spit it in a bowl or even show that black mucus or tar like pieces to the patient before discarding it.    Such feats of sucking out a diseases from a patient's body using a straw or a tube may sound like some mumbo jumbo or even ridiculous to most of the western rational thinking individuals who find such feats logically and scientifically impossible, yet there are hundreds and thousands of people all across the whole of the Buddhist Himalayan region who will testify & vouch for the healing that they have witnessed and have been part of such scientifically irrational & logically non explainable feats of healing and miracles.            Thus these 'Healer Oracles' render great service to the masses in the desolate remote corners of the Himalayan kingdom were the amenities of the modem world are still few & sparse. Irrespective of the actual physical healing, the most important help they provide to the masses is of hope and guidance to handle the harshness of day-to-day life in the barren cold stretches of this rugged hilly terrain.        The most inspiring part of this tradition is that all this healing, guidance and help is provided by the Oracle without the anticipation of any monetary or material gain. Any offering that an individual makes out of free will and reverence is purely optional and its quantum or value in no way effects the way the Oracle treats and addresses ones issues. This one thing makes this institution so revered by the common masses, as it aims to serve one and all without any distinction of caste, creed, religion, status etc. That's the reason the Oracles, who are part of the Buddhist tradition are not just sought by the local Buddhist population but also by the followers of other religions like the Hindus & Muslims
