It is a religion with a strong cultural foundation in the area that honors spirits and nature. The name "Donyi-Polo," which means "Sun-Moon," and the creator of the cosmos, Sedi, is referred to as the Godhead. This idea holds that Sedi connects all objects and beings. Sedi's hair, for instance, transforms into vegetation, his tears into rain, his bones into rocks, and his two eyes, respectively, become the Sun (Donyi) and the Moon (Polo) that looks over the world.
