Nature worship

The Smurfs engage in rituals and practices that fall under the category of nature worship, which is a spiritual focus on the individual's connection to the natural world and reverence towards it. Since Mother Nature usually serves as a constant provider of all forms of material blessings in the Smurf Forest in the cartoon show, the Smurfs show their appreciation for her generosity and benevolence in various ways. They are also very protective of everything that exists in their forest since it is their home and that they value all forms of life that live in it, even if it is humans like their constant adversary Gargamel who also lives in the same forest.
