Haathi Ki Pooja
The elephant represents connection between the human and animal world in Baiga belief systems by embodying both physical strength and spiritual significance. The pooja (ritual worship) highlights the tribe for the elephant as a symbol of power, wisdom, and protection, reflecting their belief in the interconnected of all life forms. The idea that animals, like humans, possess spiritual qualities and are integral to maintaining balance and harmony in the natural and spiritual world.
