The Mandate of Heaven: Bodpas (Tibetans) and Jurchens is a concept that emphasizes the need for a divinely appointed ruler to maintain order and justice.It states that if the ruler is not fulfilling their obligations, then they will be replaced by someone who is more suited to the task.
This idea is rooted in the belief that the gods have chosen a specific individual to lead and protect the people.
The Bodpas and Jurchens are two distinct ethnic groups who both acknowledge this concept and accept the duty of the divinely appointed ruler.
