Animism is a belief that believes that everything has a soul/spirit. Animism is a primitive religion that for thousands of years has deified animals, stars & several idols. They also practice spirit summoning, witchcraft, divination & astrology.

They use magic, spells, superstitions, amulets/anything they believe can help protect them from evil spirits & appease good spirits. Elements of animism are present in many false religions including Hinduism, Mormonism & all New Age sects. This false religion teaches that the spirit within humans is God.

This is the same lie that Satan has been telling since the events in the Garden of Eden. In addition, the Bible also strictly forbids the practices carried out by animists. Like all other false religions, animism is just another form of deception by Satan, the father of all lies.

Putri Petong is believed to adhere to animism / a belief that worships spirits & Gods. It is believed that spirits/gods can help when needed. To summon these spirits, a building in the form of a house called a pantry is needed. In the pantry, offerings of cakes are made in the form of statues made from rice flour resembling the spirit to be summoned.
