Note 47:

Rāmā I have discussed with many shamans on numerous occasions whether this should be "rammā" or "Rāma." The former makes more sense, since rammā is Kham for shaman [Watters 1975]. Gumān, however, was emphatic that it was "Rāmā" (as he pronounced Rāma). Karṇa Vīr was less sure, but also tended to agree that it should be Rāmā, not rammā. Nevertheless, since other shamans agreed on rammā, and in many cases it is clearly a title, even in Gumān's own phrase "Rammā Purācam Jhā–ṅgrī Jhiṅ–grātam" (see note š103), I have translated it as such here, while leaving it as Gumān wanted in the original.
