प्रश्न
How does 'A Kondh Song' substantiate the tribal urge to gain domination over time by conversing with their dead ancestors?
उत्तर
The tribals do not have possession over land but they have an urge to gain domination over time. In 'A Kondh Song' this urge is beautifully substantiated by referring to the conversation with their dead ancestors. They request the spirits of their ancestors to accept the offerings of a baby fowl they make. They state that they are offering because they are alive. They request the spirits not to inflict pain on them after the spirits depart.
