In the chapel, 12 major Pshava tribes prayed to common deities - the Deity of war Lashari and the goddess of healing and fertility Tamara - "Akimdedopali". Besides Pshavi, the cult of Lashari was also widespread in Tusheti, Khevsureti, among neighboring tribes and mountaineers of the North Caucasus. Lasharis-Jvari was considered one of the richest deities, who owned many treasures brought to him as donations (including by kings), territories, vineyards in Kakheti. According to Vakhushti Bagrationi, Lasharis-Jvari was founded by King George-Lasha (1210-1223). Although according to its functions, according to the results of linguistic and ethnographic studies, Lashari was the name of a pagan deity, which seemed to merge with the cult of Tsar George, as the "sword of the Messiah", the liberator, the leader of the army.

The ritual of Lasharob (Lashari service) begins with the sacrifice of calves (sacrificial animals were cut directly by the elder and the main minister of the cult in the Heavisbury gorge), followed by a blessing. Mferhavi (people who bring good luck) dance "Dandruff". In the evening, the worshippers descend to the bank of the Aragvi, where they spend the night in fun. And the next morning they climb the Tamargele (to the icon of Queen Tamara).

Opposite Lasharis-Jvari, on the top of a forest mountain, there is a walled Tamaris-Khati chapel. Inside the chapel there is a Divine floodplain, the desecration of which means condemning oneself to a curse. The slope of the eastern fence is lined with rubble stone. Benches for worshippers protrude from the wall. To the south of the wall there is a house for the banners of the priest of the chapel, there are also qvevri (vessels for storing wine) with a cahor. There is a separate house for brewing. Two bell towers are built into the wall: one is domed, built of stone, plastered with lime, with two large bells; the second is made of wood. Icons rest at the entrance to the walls, and there is also an altar.
