Loksutr is pronounced as Low-k,Soot-r. The word "loksutr" is a compound word of "Lok" meaning folk, people, and in some contexts even the world, and the word "sutr" literally means a thread. Sutr in Indian literary traditions refers to an aphorism or a collection of aphorisms in the form of a manual or, more broadly, a condensed manual or text. Loksutr hence is a thread, an extraction out of the rich socio-cultural tapestry of indigenous communities.
Loksutr is a social enterprise that enables indigenous communities to transform their intangible cultural heritage and traditional knowledge systems into contemporary collectibles by fostering community-based inventorying and capacity building along with value-addition innovations, and new media collaborations. All our Products and Services are rooted in the following innate aspects of the community:
1. Oral traditions and expressions: This includes proverbs, riddles, tales, legends, myths, epic songs and poems, charms, chants, songs, and more.
2. Performing arts: This includes music, dance and theatre, pantomime, songs, and other forms of artistic expression that are passed down from generation to generation.
3. Social practices, rituals, and festive events: These are the activities that structure the lives of communities and are shared by members—for example, initiation rites, burial ceremonies, seasonal carnivals, and harvest celebrations.
4. Knowledge and practices concerning nature and the universe: These refer to know-how and skills that communities have developed by interacting with their natural environments and may be expressed through language, memories, spirituality, or worldviews. Traditional methods of architecture, agriculture, cattle breeding, and cuisine are among the related elements.
5. Traditional craftsmanship: This refers to the skills and knowledge involved in craftsmanship than the products themselves. Examples include tribal painting, pottery, woodwork, jewelry and precious stones etc.
