🎋Echoes of the Forest🎋

“I am proud to be a junglee. That is what you call us. But it is we who have preserved the environment, our culture, and values while the so-called civilised people have destroyed them.”
– Dr. Jaipalsinh Munda (the real Adivasi leader)


VOICE OF THE TRIBES
“My grandfather says, Adivasis follow every law of nature. We worship what we see — trees, rivers, earth. What is visible is what we believe. So why should we believe in something like a soul, if it cannot be seen?”
— My Grandfather’s Wisdom
“They want our forests. They want our land. But we Adivasis will never surrender what belongs to nature — and to us.”
— Tilka Manjhi (1784)
“I am a son of the forest. The land, the water, and the woods — they belong to Adivasis.”
— Tantya Bhil (Tantya Mama)
