3.1.1 Supreme Deity

From ancient time Chutiyas have been worshiping the Keshaikhati Mai or Tamreswari Mal as their supreme deity through the process of sacrificing human beings and animals. Worshiping Mother Goddess with sacrifices is their main religious practice. Earlier they used to sacrifice young energetic boys as "Eloli" to Keshaikhati Mal evidently each year The Ahom king Gourinath Sigha put a ban on this practice of sacrificing human beings. Now they sacrifice animals, birds, and bottle gourds etc.
