Chulla Ka Ped and Tota: A Sacred Connection in Baiga Culture
Santoshi Bai
Description
Chulla Ka Ped and Tota: A Sacred Connection in Baiga Culture is an important symbol in Baiga culture, representing their deep connection with their ancestors and nature. The roots of the tree stand for the past, the trunk symbolizes the present, and the branches and leaves represent the future. The tota, or parrot, is often shown on the Chulla Ka Ped. It is believed to act as a messenger between the living and the dead, carrying prayers and offerings to the ancestors. The parrot is also seen as a sign of rebirth and renewal, symbolizing the soul's journey. Together, the Chulla Ka Ped and the tota play a key role in Baiga spirituality and are used in rituals to connect with the spiritual world.
