Translation (Htoi San)
I am telling a story about how Kachin people were driven from worshiping spirit. A long time ago, people did not believe in any religions and did not know about God. People did not know the spirits, and they lived their lives like animals who had no belief. In this world, some people who lived in the village at that time had palm-sized legs but not loosened feet. People called 'Lahpan' were alive. The 'Lahpan' people lived, and they did not know anything. They did not have any beliefs, like animals; they did not wear clothes and lived their lives. At the same time, people called 'Jum' and 'Lahpan' stayed in a place called 'Palayang'. 'Jum' people came down from a mountain. When the Jum people arrived at Palayang, they did not make friends with the Lahpan people. They were terrible at fellowship. Jum people asked the Lahpan tribe, "What kind of religion do you believe in?" When the Lahpan people heard this, they were amazed. "What belief do we have? We don't have any religion. We don't have anything," answered Lahpan people. Thus, the Jum people introduced their belief, "We worship the true living spirits." "When we talk about worshiping spirits, how do we respect the spirits? The spirits are excellent. We worship like this and like that. When we do what they ask us to do, we can get success," Jum people explained like this continuously. However, the Lahpan people know the spirits and how to worship them; they did not realize all the deep meaning of honoring the spirits. That year, all the Laphan people died altogether. There was no history of the Lahpan people left in this world as they all passed away. The Lahpan people of lineage came to an end from the earth. People got to know about the worshiping spirits starting from the Jum people. Jum people understood about the spirits first, and it was driven from age by age sharing and teaching how to adore the spirits, then the words spread from generation to generation. Although the Lahpan people sacrificed ancestral spirits, they did not include meat then. The ancestral spirits did not like meat when people worshiped them. However, the spirits which the Jum people worshiped were the same as today. People who sacrificed to the spirits and the spirit priests were the same as the Jum people's time. During the Jum's age, the spirits liked to get meat. After that, the Jum people transferred their region to their children and grandchildren. However, Jum people did not have siblings. The brother and sister got married to each other and had babies. Then, they spread and spread. The grandmothers, the grandfathers, and the great-grandmother of Jim's siblings introduced the worshiping spirits, and it spread to the Kachin people. Although there are Kachin people, the Jum tribe was the pioneer, and the Kachin people began from them. Furthermore, the sacrificing spirits were also driven by the Jum people. Some people have worshiped spirits since that time until now.
