Tribal people live in the Nilgiri Blue Mountain, as seen from the Nilgiri Blue Mountain narrow-gauge railroad. About 7,000 Todas live in the Nilgiri Blue Mountain as a small pastoral community. Todas worship nature and have their own language, rich arts, and crafts and a unique way of community living. Animal raising is their primary profession. They believe in 1600 or 1800 superior godlike beings, the two superior ones being: On and Teikirzi. On is the male god of Amnodr, the realm of the dead, and he created the Todas and their water buffaloes. He was himself a dairyman. Teikirzi is a female deity and more important with the people, whom she once ruled when she lived in the Nilgiris and established Toda social and ceremonial laws. Most other deities are hill-gods, each associated with a particular hill. There are also two river-gods belonging to the two main rivers. Today, they grow vegetables, such as carrots, on terraces. They wear distinctive black and red cloth. The Todas religion is based on the water buffaloes and their milk, butter, and ghee. Traditionally, they lived in distinctive curved-wooden houses, but today many live in rectangular white-washed stone houses. They drink a lot of hot tea-buffalo milk, which is being cooled by pouring it from one metal cup to another. Their temples are their dairies.
