Another cult that has been mentioned in the thread (if I remember by me) are the thuggee. Ever wondered where the word thug comes from? It's from the thuggee. They were Kali worshippers who "worshipped" her by murdering people or being highwaymen, robbers, thieves etc.It has remained in disparate local cults for ages. No central pope considering they have tons of different sects. Sure, you average Jeet may pray to various different Gods (Ganesha, Hanuman for example), but there are Jeets who are super-dedicated to a single God. To the point they make their separate sects... families and all.
One in particular is something you're probably familiar with. The sect that got the CNN reporter to partake in Cannibalism. The Aghori.
People often say that Hindoodooism is like European paganism (what an insult to it, fucking Bacchus worshippers were civilized compared to the average jeet) or like the Marvel extended universe but it really feels like when you're playing Morrowind and you're dropped into this weird word with a legalized mafia full of professional mafia heavies, a professional contract killer cult, weird Brahminesque wizards who stay locked up in their magic towers and who owns dozens of slaves and create daughters from their own life essence etc. Anyone who has played the game knows exactly what I'm talking about, though comparing Poos to Morrowind is an insult to the Dunmer.
