Norsang crawled on the ground and prostrated herself as she moved through the crowds on the Potala Palace square in Lhasa.
With two spiral sea shells, or conches, in hand, Norsang had made hundreds of bows on Friday morning as the month-long Sagadawa festival started.
A Tibetan woman in her 30s, she said she prayed for her family to lead safe and happy lives.
