Until they were recorded, folk beliefs were handed down from one generation to the next. </p><p>Village shamans are known as <i><span title="Thai-language romanization"><i lang="th-Latn">phram</i></span></i>, a word that has its origin in Brahmana. The <i><span title="Thai-language romanization"><i lang="th-Latn">phram</i></span></i> conducts exorcisms and performs marriages, among other ceremonies. </p><p>Another important figure in Thai folk religion is the <i>mo phi</i> (หมอผี) or shaman who would also conduct rituals. To invoke spirits of the dead, four sticks are planted at equal distance from each other on the ground near the burial or cremation place. A thread is tied around the sticks forming a protective square and a mat is spread in the middle, where the mo phi sits down. In front of him, outside of the square there is a <i>mo khao</i> terracotta jar with a <a href="/wiki/Yantra" title="Yantra">yantra</a> painted on the outside containing the ashes or bones of the dead person. Beside the jar there is also a plate of rice as an offering and a stick or switch to keep the spirits at bay. </p><p>In order to be protected against bad luck, charms and <a href="/wiki/Amulet" title="Amulet">amulets</a> for bringing luck or for protection are popular in Thailand. Some of these are tied around the body or worn as a <a href="/wiki/Necklace" title="Necklace">necklace</a>, while others come in the form of <a href="/wiki/Yantra_tattooing" title="Yantra tattooing">yantra tattooing</a>.
