Detailed Solution

Dharma-Thakur, is an Indian folk deity who is also known as high god and has no shape. He is regarded as the "high god" of numerous villages in the Rahr Plains, which includes most of the modern West Bengal states, and goes by the name Dharma-Ray. Dharma-Thakur is worshipped as a stone, a wooden votive slab, or a pair of wooden sandals because he has no permanent form. Among other things, he is a fertility god and a healer of diseases. The annual Dharma-Thakur devotion, known as Dharma-puja, has been considered a sort of sympathetic magic to bring the monsoon rains because of its connection to sun worship. Other tribal groups in the area have a range of traditions and deities that resemble Dharma-Thakur in certain ways. Dharma-magnificence Dharma-mangal, a subgenre of Bengali literature, describes Thakur's achievements.
