Tengrism is an ancient religion of the Eurasian Steppes that was developed among the Turkic population. It is based primarily on folk shamanism (animism) and revolves around Tengri the titular sky God. Tengri is considered the personification or the universe by despite not being a true deity.
Symbols
The Tengrism symbol system is based on a three-dimensional world where everything is connected to everything else. Tengrism says that everything is bound in a circle, and everything is connected to all other things. For instance, the seasons and sun are both part of a 3-dimensional Earth. The soul of every creature is also part of this Earth.
Tengriism appeared for the first time in Chinese chronicles at the end of the fourth century BC. It was also known by the name Cheng Li and the sky god. A Mongolian khan, Guyug Khan, referred to Tengri in a letter to Pope Innocent IV in 1246. He wrote "Tengri-yin Kucundur," which translates to "under the eternal Heaven."
Origin
Tengrism, an old Chinese culture is based around Geser. This hero was a reincarnation or the sky spirit who arrived on earth to serve his purpose as a Shaman. His life story is told through an epic text called the Epic Of King Gesar. The original intention was to have performers play a horsehead fiddle to tell the tale.
While it isn't certain where Tengrism came from, it is believed to have been developed during the early stages human civilizations. As societies developed, the idea of loss-developed proexistence was more popular. This led to society becoming more stratified and tribal elites being formed.
Pratiques
Tengrism, a spiritual tradition, is founded on intimate relationships between the gods. It is a religion without any holy text, prophets, or places of worship. It also doesn't have any dogma and rites. It differs therefore from orthodox Islam. This is based on Quran and Koran.
The practice of Tengrism has been practiced in the Central Asian region for centuries. It includes elements of animism, shamanism, and polytheism. Some parts of the practice are still being followed today, including Mongolia, Buryatia and the Turkic languages. While many of its practices have been abandoned, some are still being used, mainly because of their spiritual value. Modern Tengrism practices come from a movement that wants to revive the religion and encourage living in harmony and caring for nature.
