Vol. - 11, No.-1, January 99, 49-54 ARHAT VACANA CULTURAL IDENTITY OF THE JAINA Kundakunda unanapstha, Indore A INFLUENCE ON THE TRIBAL RITUALS OF KORAPUTA A. P. Jain * Introduction The concept of culture has been defined and employed in different ways and there is a general acceptance that culture is a system of leamed behaviour acquired by a person as a member of society. Culture is shared when a group of people accept and organize their lives according to it. Cultural systems usually pass from generation to generation through a process of leaming Thus culturos vary from group to group and make members of the same group similar to each other & members of different groups different. As Benderly (1977) nightly pointed out that every person spends a substantial portion of his lite, leaming a share of his culture, Cultural identity refers to the identification of a person or a group of people with a specilio social or cultural tradition. The sense of the self conception, leamed in common, by a group of people is called cultural identity. The process of cultural Identification varies when a group of people adopt themselves to their new natural and social environment. Forde (1934 . 463) adds that culture intervenes as a middle term between the physical environment and human activity Koraputa forms the southern part of Orissa. The southern boundary of this area is demarcated by river Patal, known down stream as Macakunda and later as Silfru. The western boundary with Madhya Pradesh is roughly demarcated by river Jannara for some time and by river Kolaba which takes the name Savari during its southward course. River Kolaba is the main river of Koraputa. Alongwith the river basin, at different places, habitations and kingdoms have been established. These areas have been inhabitated by different tribes viz - Khonda, Gadva, Paraja, Bonda, Didayi, Bhumiya, Amanatya, Gaunda and Koya. The Godvas and the Parajas seem to have migrated to these areas in the beginning of the second century A.D. An image of Jaina Yakshini of the Kusana period found at Anandapur in Keonjhar District of Orissa depicts * N-14, Chetakpuri, Gwalior -474009 (M.P.)

a woman with the hairdo, neck ornaments and ear ornaments as being used today by the Bonda or Gadava women. This would indicate the littoral tribal habitation from which the model was selected by sculptor. The tribals of Orissa can be divided into two groups - the proto - Australoid and the Proto Dravidian. Most of the tribes living in Koraputa area are Proto - Dravidian.Totemism is prevalent among the tribals. In Proto - Dravidian worship, father and mother goddess play important roles. The names vary from tribe to tribe. Sometimes these gods are called Dhavnipenu,Jhankara Devta, Dhartimata, Bara Deo, Badliyapen Danger Devi etc. The tribal pantheon mostly consists of the supreme sun god, mother earth, presiding deities, nature spirits, ancestral spirits and the village tutelary. Each tribe living in Koraputa has its own peculiar religious customs, dress, social organisation and language, either inherited or acquired through cultural cross-currents. . Inspites of these cultural cross-currents, the predominant tribes never believe in heaven' and'heil' reward of punishment during the life-time for moral or immoral acts. They believe in re-incarnation and transmigration of soul which is very naive in character. In this background, the Koraputa tribal religion consists of life crises rites, cyclic group rites, ancestral and totemic rites and occult practices. The whole of Koraputa and part of Kalahandi was formerly known as Mahakantara and was subjugated by the Gupta Kings. Later, the Matsyas ruled over a portion of the area followed by the Shilas. Shilas were part of the Eastern Ganges and they ruled over this area for about 4 to 5 hundred years. The Shilas were Saivites. The Shila Kingdom with its capital at Nandapur was conquered by the Chindaka Nagas of Cakrakuta some time in the 12th Century A.D.. Cakrakata is the modern Bastar whose capital was at Barsur and later shifted to Bastar. The Chindaka Nagas were of Naga origin and of unknown identity. In order to strengthen their eastward expansion, the Chindaka Nagas negotiated a matrimonial alliance with the Kakatiyas of Warangal. The Kakatiyas were sudras and patronized Jainism. With this alliance, Jainism came to Bastar. Bastar is mostly inhabited by the Marias, Murias, Abujhamarias, Gonds and Koyas. With expansion of the Chindaka Naga Kingdom towards the east, the influence of Jainism came to Koraputa area. Jaina idols were enshrined at Deorli which is on the bank of river Jannara, at Jamunda on the bank of a tributary of river kolava and Jaypur on the bank of river Kolava, Mali Mountains are in the middle of Koraputa District. One river named Molan starts from the western side of Mali mountains and meets Indravatt river after a forty 50 Arhat Vacana, January 99

kilometre downward course. At different places of the river bank and at the confluence with Indravatt, a large number of Jaina temples were built. Jainism is an atheistic religion. It is devoid of rituals and gives prime place to non-violence. It must have become very difficult for the Chindak Naga Kings to establish Jaina shrines and persuade the tribals to take to the path of non-violence and non-ritualism. They seem to have decided to select the places where tribal worship was being performed either for the manuli (the indistinct wooden God) Bhima, the Gangama or the ancestral deity (Gotara). The tribals mostly propitiated their wood gods, stick gods, stone gods or tree gods by different types of sacrifices. With a view to attract the tribals to Jaina worship, the kings, traders and generals constructed temples at the places of worship of tribal deities. An interesting Bhima worship (wooden god), prevalent even today, indicates the path taken by the torch-bearers of the Gondas for coming from Bastar to Kotpada (15 km. inside Orissa border from M.P.), who took about seven days and then lighted a fire for the festival. Along this route, many Jaina temples were constructed. Even today, broken Jaina temples exist at the places of Gotara (ancestor worship), at places of Meria (Human sacrifice) and tribal Landi. Landi is a type of dance mostly popular among the Paraja and Gadbas at Koraputa, being held a place of buffalo sacrifice. A synthesis was brought about between the somewhat obsolete and brutal ways of sacrifice and the Jaina way of belief. By the time Jaina religion came to Koraputa, Jaina Tantricism had quite a sway. Parasvanatha, the twentythird Tirthankara, was designated as Bhairava and Padmavatt, the attendant Sasana Devi of Parasvanatha, as Bhairavi. In some Jaina Tantrika treatises Ambika, the attendent Sasana Devt of Neminatha, the twenty second Tirthankara, is also termed as Bhairavi. Ambika is the prototype of the Buddhist Heruka. She is supposed to protect young childern. She is of yellow colour and holds a fruit or flower in one hand, one child on the waist and another child standing below. Devi Ambika suited the psyche of the tribals most. The serpent hood of Parasvanatha also atracted the imagination of the tribals. The Jaina Parasvanatha Tirthankara and Ambika were inducted into the life-crises rites and cyclic group rites of the tribals. However, ancestral and totemic rites were left untouched by Jaina religious influence. A large number of Ambika idols sprang up in Koraputa area. The most beautiful Tribhanga Ambika is available at Deorli. The second most beautiful and quite important Ambika is at Kecla on the bank of Kolava. The third one is at Ampabali, on the border of Orissa and Andhra Pradesh. Other Ambikas are scattered in different places. Most of the Ambikas are propitiated by sacrifices. White Arhat Vacana, January 99 51

pigeon, doves, swan or duck and hen are sacrificed for Ambika. At Digapur, which is twenty kilometers down stream of river Kolava from Jaypur, a three-tier idol depicts Neminatha Ambika and Banjaruni. In the middle is Ambika, down below is Banjaruni riding on a lion, with a bough in hand. Banjaruni is the forest goddess of the tribals. On the top is Neminatha. Duck, Sheep & hens are offered to the Banjaruni every Tuesday and Friday by either a Paraja or a Bhumiyana. However, it is very interesting to find that Ambika is a vegeterian goddess, where as Banjaruni is a non-vegetarian goddess. Sacrificial blood kept in a leaf-mug is offered by priest to Banjaruni and not to Ambika. Mug containing blood is not poured on the idol. This is a typical cultural cross current of tribal worship and Jaina belief. Infant mortallity is a base of the tribal society. The tribals attach much importance of the birth of a baby and elaborate rituals, including the incantations of a witch doctor (Gunia) undertaken. At Kecla, the tribals bring the new born to the Ambika idol for warding off the influence of evil spirits. As a part of Jaina ritual and tribal rites a Gurumayi (Priestess) performs the rites and black goat is sacrificed. Influence of Jainism had brought the Gurumayi ritual to the tribals. She also propitiates Ambika or any spirit at the time of sickness of a child. In life crisis rites, the Koraputa tribal goes to the Jaina idols at the time of birth and sickness and not at the time of marriage or death. In cyclic group rites, the most important are the Balijatra (Fertility rites). the Pusa Parva, Magha Parva or Mandei and the Caita Parva. Food gathering and shifting cultivation being most important aspects of the routine life of the tribals, they undertake elaborate rituals. In fertility rites, be that sowing of the seed or clearing a dense forest for shifting cultivation, the tribal goddess is invoked by sacrifices. At the same time, the Jaina Mahapurusa is invoked, be that Rsabhanatha, Parasvanatha or Mahavira, Ambika or Cakresvart, Mahapuru or Mahapurusa is an influence of Jaina beliefs on the tribals. In five places of Koraputa, such rituals are held followed by Landi or Dhemsa (Dance forms). The most important place where such a festival is held is at Kumar Ganjana, about 40 kms. north of Koraputa. The place is called Devata Hanjar (Abode of Gods). The place is by the side of a tributary of Kolava. In a single block of stone, three figures of Mahavira, Parasvanatha and Ambika have been sculpted. In the middle stands Ambika, and on both sides are Mahavira & Parasvanatha in Padmasana. At the time of Badabheta (Mass hunting) of Caitra, the Gadaba priest paints the figures in blue stripes. He draws an intricate diagram in front of the idols and invokes their help in getting identity 52 Arhat Vacana, January 99

Page #55
of wild animals. These three figures and the yantra drawn in front of them are reminiscent of the Jagannatha Trinity and the painting of those idols. The second place where the fertility rites are held in an elaborate manner is at the confluence of river Indravatt & Moran. At this place there is a beautiful image of Jaina Sasana Devt. She is Cakresvart of the first Tirthankara, Rsabhanatha. The sculpture depicts a two handed goddess with a nubile body. She is locally known as Dhangdi Devi (young lady). The ornaments on the figure clearly indicate the influence of Paraja tribal women. A Paraja is the priest. He sacrifices pigs for the indistinct shapeless wooden deity called Mauli (earth goddess) across the fence. For the Dhangdi Devi, he sacrifices only hens and ducks, and pigs are taboo. After an elaborate ritual, the seeds are taken from the deity by young Paraja women for sowing in the fields. The third place where the cyclic rites are held is at Dundhari on the Mali mountains. No Paraja, Gadava or a Khond would eat Kandula (Redgram) without first offering the same to the Kandulabhaji Devi sitting atop a hillock. After offering Kandula the tribals come down to the bank of river Kerandi (tributary of Kolab) and pray to Siva. Sva is none other than Mahavira Tirthankara in Vyakhyana Mudra (Rare Mudra for, a Jaina idol). Dharanendra, Padmavatt idols also are worshipped alongwith Siva. Across the rivulet, the Parajas & Gadbas perform the buffalo sacrifice and embed pieces of flesh in the field for good crop. The fourth place of fertility rites in Kechla. Here the Paraja Jaani invokes Jogi Mashapru (risvanath) in the following manner: Tash kale tash habu bet kale bet habu salre ga habu katare pa habu (Give me best crop after cultivation, best wild animals during hunting, good cows in the cowshed and healthy baby in the house). After incantation he draws a yantra of rectangles & circles. Invacations are followed by sacrifice and feast. The fifth place of these rites is Chatuaon the bank of river Patal (Machkunda). At this place both Rsabhanatha and Dharanedra Padmavati are propitiated during the Badabhet. Yantra is drawn with Ragi powder. The yantra is a rectangle with semi-circles all around. Buffalo sacrifice is made in the name of Bhairava. Here Bhairava is Dharanendra, the Sasana Devata of Parasvanatha. Mandei is another food gathering rite of the trilbals. It is mostly held in the month of Magh. During this period the Lathi, representing the tribal Arhat Vacana, January 99 53

Page #56
deity, is taken from place to place. Alongwith the Lathi, tribal women carry flower from one Jaina idol to the other. By this way a cementing bond has been forged among the Jaina idols and tribal places of worship. With the decline of the Chindaka Nagas, the Gajapati king controlled Koraputa in the 15th centruy A.D. Militia men of the Gajapatis called Khandayats had settled in the area. Some of them took over the priestly functions from the Jaanis of the tribals. Jaanis is a derivative of the Jaina. Ranas (warriors), Paikas (warrior), Kumbhar (Potter), Mall (Gardner) became priest of some of the Jaina idols. Inspite of this, the tribal has been coming to those idols for the propitiation. Although Jaina influence is quite predominant is case of Paraja, Gadha, Khond, and Amanatyas, it is minimal in case of Bhumiyas and Gonds. It has no influence on the Bondas and Didayis, though they live on the Siliru basin. After the decline of the Chindaka Nagas, a branch of the ruling family settled at Sarhati a top the Kutnimala mountains, overlooking the old fort of Nandapur. This group is called Benaagparaja. Till date the headman of this group presides over the fertility rite of 130 villages in and around Nandapur. The Headman also receives a portion of the first fruit or crop. By tradition, the headman is a vegetarian. However, the tribals have not included the Jaina Tirthankars and Sasana Devis in their Pantheon. They look upon the idols with awe and suspicion. It can be summed up by a Gadba incantation to the Trinity of Deta Hasnjar Aume - dara bidika na karu kala katha sedha deme. goda ke kantha raken. mund ke latha raken 54 (OM. do not scare me. Ensure that your promises are fulfilled let there be no prick on my feet. let no one accuse me of any misdeed.)

JAINISM JAINISM - A Pictorial Guide to the religion of Non-Violence Jainism - A pictorial Guide to the Religion of Non - Violence by Kurt Titze with contributions by Klaus Bruhn, Jyoti Prasad Jain, Noel K. King, Vilas A. Sangve and others. Published by Motilal Banarsidas Put. Limited, Delhi, First Edition, 1998, XII + 268, Rs. 2500 = 00 The book under review is an outcome of the decision taken by author in 1968-69 after his visit to Mount Abu and Sravanbelgola to make Jainism a better known religion in the west. He feels that the pictorial supplementation to the classical Jaina Texts is essential for the better understanding. For the same he visited many remote centre, who are not usually available on any guide map. He also attended an annual conference of Kundakunda Jnanapitha, known as Jaina Vidya Sangosthi held at Indore during 12-13 January 1992. According to author, who is of German origin but citizen of Australia, it is a first guide to undeservedly over looked religion with open eyes and loving heart. I can say firmly that he is succesful in his aim. Content and presentation of the photographs in the book is of high standard and it should be kept in every library.
