Tengrism is an ancient belief system that originated among the nomadic peoples of Central Asia, particularly the Turkic and Mongolic tribes. It centers around the worship of the sky god, Tengri, who is seen as the creator and ruler of the universe. Tengrism emphasizes a deep connection to nature, ancestor worship, and the importance of harmony between humans and the environment. The practice includes rituals, shamanism, and the veneration of spirits associated with natural elements. Tengrism has influenced various cultures and religions in the region, and its principles can still be observed in the traditions of some modern Turkic and Mongolian communities today.
