Question
Explain the following concept with example.
Kambad Dance
Solution
Kambad dance is dedicated to the goddess of food grains (Kansari Devi) by Warlis. This dance is only performed by Warli men at the start of the rainy season. As the legend goes, the goddess was angry with people for wasting food grains and hence disappeared. The people appealed to the Rain God, who then performed the rain dance and wooed the goddess out of her hiding place. She then came on to the earth where she could germinate and the people would then get food.
Example: Dance dedicated to Kansari Devi by Warlis found in parts of Maharashtra like Thane, Raigad and Palghar.
