Man from the Ramnami community reading the Ram Charit Manas, the holy book of the Ramnamis (Chhattisgarh, India), As a sign of devotion, Ramnami people used to tattoo their body and face with the name of Rama, one of the main hindu god. Nowadays, this tradition is disappearing. Indeed, few of them are still tattooed, the younger generation fearing discrimination. The community (or sect) is born in the end of the 19th century as a way to protest against the supremacy of the higher classes in the hindu hierarchical system
