Sarna Samaj

Sarna Samaj is a religious and social organization rooted in the indigenous beliefs of certain tribal communities in India, particularly among the Oraon, Munda, and Ho tribes. It emphasizes reverence for nature, especially forests, trees, and natural elements, and promotes cultural heritage, social unity, and spiritual practices aligned with their ancestral traditions. Sarna Samaj strives to preserve their identity, oppose religious conversions, and advocate for tribal rights. It functions both as a religious body and a social movement, encouraging community participation and the honoring of their unique customs and reverence for nature-based spirituality.
