In the funeral ceremony,both the Pumi and the Yi people have an important ritual that they are presided over by the priests,who chant the Guide Sutra,which aims to guide the way and guide the souls of the dead to return to their homeland.However,due to the differences in time,space,generating environment,national history and culture,customs and habits,narrative tradition,and migration route of ancestors,the two ethnic groups have their own characteristics in the form and content,funeral ceremony,narrative mode,religious culture,etc.This paper makes a comparative analysis of“guiding the way”in the funerals of the Pumi and Yi nationality,explores its different characteristics,and hopes to excavate the traces of ethnic development and evolution,the generation of ethnic cultural characteristics and other rich connotations reflected behind it.
