The pre-Buddhistic folk religion of Sri Lanka consisted of a belief in various deities and demons capable of bestowing benefits and blessings or causing afflictions and diseases. These entities were either propitiated or exorcised through offerings and the performance of rituals and ceremonies. This rich tradition has been preserved and continues to be a vital part of Sri Lankan culture.
