'''Talom Rukbo''' was the father of [[Donyi-Polo]], a revivalist religious movement based in [[Arunachal Pradesh]] which attempts to reconstruct [[Tani languages|Tani]] ([[Adi people|Adi]]) animist spirituality.

He has criticized Christian missionaries for fraudulent [[Religious conversion|conversion]] practices in the Northeast of India.<ref>[http://www.stephen-knapp.com/preaching_in_indias_northeast_for_cultural_preservation.htm Preaching in India's Northeast for Cultural Preservation] - Stephen Knapp.
{{cquote|The church?Christian missionaries ? quickly capitalized on the innocence of our forefathers. They fraudulently convinced our people that we were barbarians and converted some into Christianity. ? They declared that the converted persons must discard (1) the `animist` practices, (2) our festivals and that our Gods and Goddesses were Saitan (evil spirits? Satan).}} [http://www.indicstudies.org/comments_reply.php?discussion_id=1&topic_id=12 Subject: Re-imagining Religious Freedom] Indic Studies Project</ref>

Because of his contribution to the [[Adivasi]] way of life, Rukbo has been named one of the inspirations for the [[Vanavasi Kalyan Ashram]] project run by the [[Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh]].<ref>[http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/872507.cms RSS-backed Vanvasi NGO comes out of woods] The Economic Times - September 04, 2004</ref>
