Eight classes of gods and demons

The eight classes of gods and demons (Tibetan: ལྷ་སྲིན་སྡེ་བརྒྱད་, lha srin sde brgyad) are a traditional classification of supernatural beings in Tibetan Buddhism and Bön. These entities—sometimes gods, sometimes demons—are believed to inhabit the natural and spiritual world and can have both benevolent and malevolent influence over human life.
