Misconceptions about Demons & Witchcraft in Sri Lanka | An Explainer

Sri Lanka is strange. For one, three persistent sub-religions are practiced by most Sri Lankans, although they may not be aware of it. These are Demonism, Capuism, and Grahaism. Anthropologists have widely documented all three. Europeans recorded these religions under the terms of Witchcraft and Demonology. I don't blame them. How could they possibly understand? Even modern Sri Lankans are unaware of why or how these three sub-religions have become so deeply embedded in the culture.

Chapters:

  • An overview of historical relations between Sinhala and Tamil people, contributing to the growth of these sub-religions.
  • Colonial misinterpretations & how sub-religions persist alongside Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism.
  • Demonology as a means of maintaining wellness.
  • Capuism to broker a relationship with vengeful deities.
  • Grahaism, to neutralize planetary influence.
