Party members who are Moslems are urged to attend “special seminars” emphasizing “political learning.” Recently in Kansu and Tsinghai provinces, the typical theme of such seminars is “learning more from Marx and less from Muhammad.”

A fantastic legend was told about the first Gyalwai Odzer. This legend, believed to be authentic, had no fixed origin in time because the nomads of the region, the Tibetan province Tsinghai, could not, not even vaguely, indicate a date. The legend, however, was clear enough, so well known that it was no longer discussed, for everybody had been told the tale during childhood. It had become a dogma, to be believed passively without even trying to ascertain its probability or validity.
