• Bhima Bhoi (ca. 1855-94), a Kondh tribal poet of
  Orissa, has been hailed as a seer and visionary.
  Exponent of the Mahima or Alekha cult, he has
  woven philosophical and metaphysical ideas in
  simple, lyrical Oriya poetry. His bhgiansand
  bolisare on the lips of millions and are sung to
  the accompaniment of castanets and tambourine in
  the villages of Orissa. Though the contrast of
  conflicting concepts and situations, hi images
  and metaphors build an eerie and poignant poetic
  landscape trees flower but have no shade flowers
  not only have colour but also poison in them
  rivers swell and surge and meteors shoot down to
  the arth there is sea without water dance to
  inaudible music exotic bees of the spirit seek
  the nectar of realisation, reaching a stage of
  the language where ornamentation is inappropriate
  and rhetoric out of place.
• Folk idiom and colloquial speech make his
  language earthy, vibrating with intense emotion,
  ranging from insistent supplication to righteous
  anger, and from abject surrender to indignant
  moral assertion. Bhima Bhois contribution to the
  making of Oriya literature is unparalleled,
