In Navajo mythology, a chindi is the ghost of a deceased person that's supposed to leave the body with the person's last breath. According to the tradition, this is because the person was unable to bring about universal harmony during his or her lifetime. The belief that contact with a chindi can induce ghost sickness is also indicated by the tribe's traditional practices.

According to the beliefs of the Navajo, chindi are known to remain around the deceased's possessions, so they are often destroyed after death and the deceased's name is never said after death, as they fear that that will make one ill. The practice of allowing death to occur outdoors is carried out to allow the chindi to disperse.
