Indigenous religion of the Kirati people
Kiratism
Kiratism is an Indigenous religion that is the traditional ethnic religion of the Kirati ethnic groups of Nepal, Darjeeling and Sikkim, highly practiced by Limbu, Yakkha, Sunuwar, Rai, Dhimal and Hayu peoples in the north-eastern Indian subcontinent. The practice is also known as Kirat Veda, Kirat-Ko Veda. The primary religious scripture of Kiratism is the Mundhum. According to some scholars, such as Tom Woodhatch, it is a blend of shamanism, animism (e.g., ancestor worship of Yuma Sammang/Tagera Ningwaphumang and Paruhang/Sumnima), and Shaivism. It is practiced by about 3.17% of the Nepali population as of 2021.
