COSMOS
Religion- Hinduism and some non traditional beliefs.

"According to the Todas, the goddess Teikirshy and her brother first created the sacred buffalo and then the first Toda man. The first Toda woman was created from the right rib of the first Toda man." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toda_people). 

This is why they do not eat the buffalo.

Some of their non traditional beliefs are that they do not where shoes. Also that they may not travel over bridges they walk through bodies of water.
