Despite his young age, Birsa Munda influenced his people to stand against the British and fight for their rights to their land, finally leading to an act being passed that turned into a major chink in the armour for the reigning British Raj.

From a Vaishnav monk, Birsa learned about Hindu religious teachings and studied the old scriptures along with the Ramayana and Mahabharata. He wore the sacred thread, worshipped the tulsi plant and gave up meat.

Birsa wanted to reform the tribal society and so, he urged them to let go of beliefs in witchcraft and instead, stressed on the importance of prayer, staying away from alcohol, having faith in God and observing a code of conduct.

Based on these, he started the faith of 'Birsait'. This was a threat to Christian missionaries who were converting the tribals left and right. Soon, the Mundas and Oraons became devoted Birsaities.
