Q. Who do the Santhal tribe consider the World-Creator?
Answer: Thakur ji
Notes: The Santhal tribe uses the term "Thakur ji" to denote their World-Creator. Santhals traditionally worship Divine spirits called bongas, with Marang Buru as the chief deity. Thakur ji is a sanskritized name representing the Supreme God and creator in Santhal beliefs. This belief is separate from the Hindu trinity of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva. It reflects the unique spiritual traditions of the Santhal community.
