Nat with money offering


Before Buddhism, people in Burma worshiped Nats. This practice was originally an Animist belief with spirits associated with the sky, hills, trees, lakes, and other natural features. Nats are still widely worshipped today. People present them offerings asking for protection in their daily life.
