my brother told me before that got one temple in pulau tikus offer 开光 to normal folks....regardless of ur item is car, motorbike, necklace or whatever...
so i wana ask here, where is that place? is it really 开光 or just another faker?
can suggest me a temple/monk that really 开光?


another question, i want to buy 佛珠 that made of wood in bayan lepas area, but i didnt see any shop that sells stuff for praying...perhaps i missed out...can penang kia point me?

note: not sure 开光 is the correct term or not, pls correct me if do. not for those who are not superstitious..

开光 what is this??

and this 佛珠 ???

i assume u can read mandarin words...

开光(not sure about the term) is some sort of simple ceremony done by chinese bomoh, or some sort, normally to azimat to help protect u from "dirty" things and protect u from physical harm, like accident...

佛珠 is the necklace with big round beds that monks holding it while chatting..

Why must you buy from Bayan Lepas?
One of the streets adjoining Penang Road has a lot of such praying materials shops. Try there.

hahahaha...simple enough, cause i live in bayan lepas...
of course u want to buy things that is convenient to you, right?

Okay... then try Sungai Ara.... should have 1 or 2 of those shops.

Actually, I can't read mandarin. Have no idea what you wanted to buy except it's praying material.

Guanyin temple near Penang road.
Thang Siang temple near Snake Temple.

guess i still need to waste some fuel to round2 to check the shops...

what about the indian temple (i think) in pulau tikus there, on the way to botanical garden, there is a junction, exactly at the junction there is an indian temple...my colleagues suggest me there...

Not near pulau tikus at all lar..... it's at http://goo.gl/maps/VYrTL

Everytime passby also got people ask the indian temple people to do praying for new car / bikes .

The beads thing I don't know sorry

my bro and colleagues said near pulau tikus (probably i'm not familiar with that area)
yes, i got passby there twice, but didnt see anyone do praying on car or bikes...

here come the questions i really want to know, compare this temple with other two suggestions suggested by Blackwoods, this indian temple more "powerful"?

erm those 2 are Chinese temple , that one is indian temple , they only do the ritual around 3-6pm .

I don't think the chinese temple got do the ritual , never do it before

u urself ady go do it?
everyday 3-6pm also available?

wa tarak do it before still virgin.
I guess so , later I passby I take pic for you

dunid la, i know how to go to there....just that not sure which one (few suggestions) to go nia...
need to give angpau bo? or he do it for free?

of cos need to give ang pao , how much I not sure , but i assume rm 50 gua....

if not mistaken maybe is give donation to the temple instead of ang pao

Free? You think got free meh?

i go Bukit Mertajam ask for azimat, free....or azimat and this ritual/ceremony is different thing?

you done this before?

No.... never done such things before.

But the indian temple is really famous

If such things works, we dont need insurance anymore. And our traffic accident rate will not keep increasing. Hello, now is 2012 my dear SJKC friend. Wake up and start using some brain cell to think

Did anyone mention the word "insurance"?

pandai pun.... lu athiest ar?

u considered me superstitious...
as chinese saying, after seeing "dirty" thing, scared of dark places...

ts. ur problem solved now? either you go ask at the place you buy the beads or go to the temple straight away. there's always someone at the temple you can ask.

So after ritual confirm no accident? So why not the whole world perform it, then you will not see any accident related death.

Yes, now is already 2012 and i am amazed Chinese, especially those SJKC still stuck in this mindset. I can understand if you were born in early 1900, but 2012? You gotta be kidding me.

I have one colleague who use to go to temple to get amulet everytime he travels. The medium told him that the amulet will let him have smooth passage, especially on the ustom chekpoint. So the medium told him to go ahead and buy anything he wants, without fear of getting tax. The first trip to US works fine for him, so he goes to the temple for the amulet again for second trip. And lo and behold, second trip he kena stop and fine. So right now he curse everytime others talk to him on such thing. And as for me, i can only say " I told you so, idiot", to him.

okay, thanks for your sharing story.
but u're not helping...
btw, i wasnt the type that hope wont kena accident or wont kena roadblock....i am more to protect myself from those dirty things...
i appreciate your sharing, but please understand my actual need, dun be keyboard warrior...

i suggest u go thailand

i duno any about these type of thing in thailand and certainly duno anyone in thailand, my frens and colleagues also duno things about these in thailand...

dun superstitious lah car oso need to kai kuang!?

wait until ur luck extremely at any point of ur time, and those things have the chance to kacau, then u tell me, dun superstitious lah....

So confirm no accident after those prayers?

ts if u are buddhist. i recommend you go do dana(offering) for monks. offer food, offer robes, etc to monks. for the merits.

if you need blessings or some protection item. you can go to mahindarama temple penang and let monks bless. they will give you blessing string. just go to the temple and ask around where to get blessing from the monks.

i used to be armed to the teeth with thai amulets and 佛珠s. i always carried like 20++ such items with me. all because i'm paranoid of losing my "luck" .

but then later on i realized doing charity, doing dana , helping people and really studying your own religion/belief(in my case buddhism) has much better effect than armed to the teeth with amulets.

but that don't mean totally not carrying any, i still carry a few with me. as precaution or to keep my mind at ease at least.

do good and good will come to you eventually.

Bodoh, who mentioned here after ritual confirm no accident? It's just for peace of mind. Maybe becoz of this peace of mind, ppl drive more relax and indirectly make him drive better and more alert and this avoid certain accident?

Follow law no confirm no accident then no need follow? Biarlah apa ppl believe. More money no guarantee bettef life so no need earn money? Logic terencat akal, Bodoh sial, Bukannya TS so into it until he's obsessed with it.

thank you.
i'm not so obsessed with the superstitious thing.....
but he keep on pressing on "so 100% confirm no accident la" thing...i gave up, he wins all...i cannot explain to ppl with hard skull...

Added on August 27, 2012, 9:03 amyeah, agree with u...doing good also one of the things that helps ourselves...
mahindarama temple is at where? perhaps gonna visit when free...

but i'm not paranoid on losing luck thing, just that i want to keep those "dirty" things off me...
been experienced with those thing when i first enter politeknik...seriously dun wan to experience it again...
perhaps pgkia8 need to meet and have a chat with them...

Ok, no wonder all those kena scam always same people. Because they want peace of mind thats why they believe those scammers. LMAO.

For example, they buy lampe berger because its says that it would prevent certain disease, and they get conned good and proper by the MLM people.

So you do ritual on the car just to have peace of mind, and dont necessary believe it helps anything.

Its like you buy insurance, but you dont believe insurance will actually covers you incase you met with an accident. What a joke.

it's like u bought insurance, then u tot it gives u license to drive rashly and dangerously, coz u r covered. what a joke.

Any sane person knows insurance is to cover your medical or assets in case of emergency or accident. Only some fools think that their ritual , will help them prevent accidents. Then why the need to buy insurance?

seriously pgkia8, i do not sure why u in this thread in the first place...
come here to flame ppl?
its others' freedom on what they believe on, not only u're not helping but create fuss here, just to show urself a keyboard warrior...

my title is to ask for help where to get 佛珠and where to 开光...
not discussing on how ridiculous about these ritual...u know there is a "New Topic" button right?
go ahead, create a new thread, make fuss there, i believe atheism folks would gladly reply there...

i also certainly know its ur freedom to comment here, and i cannot do anything about it..
MODS, please take note on this forumer...

Mahindarama temple is near Han Chiang college. Or you can go to other temples like temple of lifting Buddha or Burmese Buddha temple both near pulau tikus. Sri Lanka, Burmese and Thai monks usually give you blessing strings as protection. Not too sure if Chinese Buddhist and tibetan buddhist temples got give strings or not.

Best thing bout all these Buddhist (regardless of Chinese, Tibetan, Sri langkan, burmese, Thai)temples are they don't want your money(well all of the legit ones at least). They only accept when you offer it. Unlike some mediums which...you know....say you have to pay so and so. But not all mediums are bad. I have seen some mediums that don't want your money instead ask you do more charity.

Ts I hope you resolve whatever you are facing without problem.

thank you Knightingale..you have been very helpful...

So freedom of speech, or difference of opinion is not allowed?
If someone open a thread asking where and how to buy drugs, cant i exercise my freedom of speech to advice that member to avoid drugs at all cost?

money making geniuses
