Polynesian Religion

Polynesian religion is a spiritual system practiced by the indigenous peoples of the Polynesian Islands, emphasizing a close connection with nature, ancestors, and gods. It involves worshiping deities responsible for natural elements like land, sea, and sky, and includes rituals, chants, and offerings to honor spirits and seek their favor. Ancestors play a central role, and myths often explain the origins of the world and cultural practices. While varied across islands such as Hawaii, Tahiti, and Samoa, common themes include respect for nature, ancestral reverence, and spiritual protection, reflecting Polynesians' deep relationship with their environment and heritage.
