Further it discusses the Ahom royalty—their powers, prerogatives and heaven born tradition. It also deals with gods and goddesses, mode of worship, rites and rituals, and the role played by the traditional Ahom priestly class. A discussion on the system of burial of Ahom royalty and the concept of death makes part of the book as well.
