"Doying: A Compilation of Adis' Myths and Folktales" unfolds a captivating narrative imbued with pulsating sagas and enigmatic mysteries. It weaves a tapestry of romance, valor, intriguing encounters with the unknown, and fantastical elements such as spirit possession and haunting.
Before delving into these folktales, it's essential to grasp the unique worldview of the Adis, a prominent tribe hailing from Arunachal Pradesh. They perceive all things—living or non-living—as possessing an existential life, undergoing the cycles of creation, procreation, and regeneration even after their demise.
The folktales predominantly feature a regenerative essence, where a lifeless body or a severed body part can spring back to life, transforming into an entirely distinct entity with a life of its own.
