What is aThai Spirit House?
When
Buddhism first arrived in Thailand (Siam) over 2500 years ago, spirit worship, or
animism, was already widely practiced throughout Asia. Today, many of these animistic beliefs are
intertwined with Buddhism and it is here that the Spirit House makes its entrance.
These unique houses can be seen in every prominent spot outside private homes,temples, and Thai business establishments. They provide an appealing shelter for the spirits, or celestial beings, who would otherwise reside in the heavens. These are benevolent spirits, they protect the home, gardens, and business of the owner.
Our Spirit Houses are made of Teak Wood hand crafted and styled after tradional Thai homes. They are made in Northern Thailand by expert builders who are familiar with all the necessary rituals involved in transforming a wooden house into an acceptable earthly abode for a spirit.
With every house we include a descriptive information explaining the history of these unusual structures, how best to display them, inside or outside, and how to provide "offerings" to the spirits, and how you can enjoy the tranquility from owning one.
These New Age spirits will enhance your life, calm your stress, and bring you good luck, and above all let you experience part of an age-old culture. Call us at (831) 622-9950 or e-mail today to order one of these very unique Thai houses. If not used for the culture aspect they make very attractive conversational items inside or outside where used.
We have many Collectibles and Artifacts from Thailand and various parts of Asia. If you have a special item you are looking for, let us know, and we may be able to obtain it for you.
