We have no written records of our past, yes true. However we should record it now whatever little left that can be obtained orally by elderly people. Like prenba, mdai huba, patri gaba....

Thanks for your elaborating informative videos

You said the first six ones to come out became the Gods and evil spirit came out from the 7th egg. But from the 7th egg came the God hamyadao. When any genna happens, which is called as madai huba in dimasa language hamyadao is worshipped alongside other Gods so that he doesn't cause any mischief during the genna ritual. The eldest son is alu raja, nowadays people call him shibrai but try to interpret him as shiv which is wrong. This shibrai of dimasa religion is a cat, bangla raja a serpent creature, Arikidima a winged creature.

You have missed a point here by not covering at least 500 years of historical facts. A section of the Cacharis who later came to be known as the Dimasas moved to Sadiya from Kamrup before another section left Sadiya and settled in Kachomari in Golaghat, Dimapur and then Maibang . After arrival of the Ahoms in 1228 AD , they were gradually pushed from Sadiya towards Tinsukia, Sibsagar, Golaghat. Many rivers in Upper Assam still bear Dimasa names.

[@milkytoo]

The truth is dimasas never lived in kamrup. It's a misconception. The first dimasa spotted in Arunachal Pradesh ,near china and a fact there are Chinese seals and mentions of dimasa king in ming shilu. The place dilao-bra tsangibra is also in Arunachal. Dilao river is called tilao in buranji, this is how we can locate dilao which is Lohit river today in Arunachal. The tsang river is called siang too, which is in Arunachal today. The deori call the river as hungi, in deori folk Lores they also came from hungibra. Dimasas separated from deori tribe, the kamrup area was under Koch and Koch related tribes like mech(Boro) and achik(garo)

[@milkytoo]

In ahom buranji, they first met a dimasa in tirap, Arunachal. There is also a record of dimasas staying back and the ahom king requested them for three generations to move away

Ptolemy geography mentions Dimasas around 500 Bc

Well this video is only about dimasa tribe. Kinda misleading title, this video is solely about dimasa tribe and no other kachari tribe.

Fun fact how we became hindus, after bhima married hidimba.

[@jemyungsenyung3152]

This isn't true. This is just dumb myth.

[@melodiousquack4353]

We were never Hindus, just stop mentioning this hidimba myth. Hidimba has no connection with dimasa, only the son of koch princess and dimasa prince iragdao hasnu was converted into Hinduism and gave a gotra for him that he is the son of Hidimba and gatotkach, and he changed his name to Govinda chandra. These people are today called as hawarsa, ask any old dimasa elderly. The truth is dimasa people think that hawarsa and hadisarao are superior and civilized and starting imposing hawarsa tradition into themselves, even don't know the fact that Govinda chandra was not king, he ruled only kashpur and the dima hasao(and karbi anglong) region was ruled by sambodon and tularam with whom govinda had war

[@melodiousquack4353]

@@arinsarmah6951 do you even know about us? We don't have Gotra or brahmin or caste, we are not vedic, we are a tribe belonging to sino-tibetan ethnicity, who have our own Gods. We are not Buddhist, jain, sikh or hindu. We don't follow any sect, nor even in history no brahmin preached Hinduism to us, we don't follow vedas or any sanata dharma related thingy. We have our folk religion we worship our own God they are ariki, gunyung, zemyung, braiyung, waa, naiku etc. We are a tribe belonging to sino-tibetan ethnicity, we are not vedic and there is however a small percentage of people who converted to Hinduism, there are 2 lakh population of our tribe out of which 26 thousand came under the influence of brahmins and the brahmins converted them to Hinduism, they are called "barmans in cachar" there is also a small Buddhist percentage and a small Christian percentage. But the majority remains non-hindu and non-christian following the ancestral religion. I don't know how much percentage is 26 thousand out from 2 lakhs but these regarding this 26 thousand from our people who converted to Hinduism, you can research about them in Wikipedia, they are called "barmans in cachar", they follow Hinduism but at the same they continue to worship the original religion and eat beef, pork and other food which are taboo in Hinduism, despite efforts from other people who are trying to convert us to Hinduism, Christianity and Buddhism, the majority remains strong and the small percentage who converted still follow their culture and food habits.

[@melodiousquack4353]

@@arinsarmah6951 google about "barmans in cachar". They are only 26 thousand in number, don't speak without knowledge you must be in your imaginary thoughts thinking that the whole world was vedic which is false, " you asked back what was I back then?" For your kind information Hinduism came from vedic people and in 19th century a bengali brahmin converted some of our people to hinduism, these so called "barmans in cachar", they are only 26 thousand in number. And then some British missionary spread Christianity to our people that's why like 2% of our population is Christian. Majority is still unaffected by these influences and follow their traditional religion and worship our own God.
