Brahmarakshasa

In countries like ThailandCambodia and also Java whose culture has large influence of Hindu heritage and Sanskrit language, we can find little shrines elevated on poles. These are erected in neighborhood of every house in veneration of nature spirit. These spirits were identified in early times with Hindu deities or Sanskrit names like Brahmarakshsa, Sri Shikeshwara (Shiva), Sri Champeshwara (Krishna) and others.
