Translations of story in English, Chinese and Tibetan   神山 在康定孔玉有一个村子叫嘎柏夷，这个村子在山上。那边有一个关于两位山神的民间故事，一位叫吉古帕格，一位叫柔衲。很久以前他们开始了一个战争，他们都认为对方侵犯了自己的领域。他们战斗了几天，这个地区的山全部有灵气，终于吉古帕格的眼睛被射中了，柔衲丢失了一只肩膀。 老人们都说如果你梦见一个人没有眼睛，但是你不认识他，那他一定是吉古帕格；如果你做梦是关于一个人有一只受伤的肩膀，那他肯定是柔衲。在村民的心里这两位山神是神圣的，我们经常去朝拜这两座神山。     Sacred Mountains    In KongYu, Kangding, one village is named Ga BoYi. This village is located in the mountains. There is a folk tale about two mountain gods. One is named Ji Gu Pa Ge. One is named Rou Na. They started a war a long time ago. They each thought the other was occupying their mountain. They were fighting for several days. All of the mountains in this area showed a lot of spirit. In the end, Ji Gu Pa Ge was shot in an eye. Rou Na lost one shoulder.    The older people say that if you dream about a man that just has one eye, but you don’t know him, he is certainly Ji Gu Pa Ge. If you dream about a man with a wounded shoulder, it must be Rou Na. The two mountain gods are holy in the villagers’ hearts. We often go worship the two mountains.     3.
