Another question. If a ghost harmed me and I die, can I take revenge?

For example, the ghost in Ju-On movie is a very unreasonable one. If I were to encounter a ghost like that, and she killed me. When I die and become a ghost, can I exert revenge against her ?
For example rape and kill her and hang her ghost head for all other evil ghost to see so that they will know what comes to them if they fuck wit mortal beings?

Then I become like Punisher, lawful neutral. Ghost bounty hunter vigilante and kill all evil ghost but at the same time, avoiding hell official from catching me.

Is this possible?
I am not joking, I entertain these kind of thought when I read about Chinese religion. I cannot find someone else to answer my question seriously.

hi nachsider,

Informative and it helps that you articulate the concepts well. I'm not a believer in this but the thread (and the whole folk religion) is interesting.

I'd like to know what the view is among sintua's adherent regarding the universality of the deities/ghost when it comes to the dead from other parts of the world. 

I've read a few pages back regarding the medium who channeled and spoke in some ancient form of Chinese and did trigger this question that I have.

Pleasant evening.

Wow! All the while i thought he exist in the movie only...

You meant Hanuman? Can you do a write up on Sun Wukong and Piggy? Can help clear up our misunderstanding of them all this time due to TVB Drama.

Only Sandy the 3rd brother & the dragon turn to horse is not real but who knows.

How about Shangdi, 上帝. ?

What do you know about 上帝?

What more can you say about this entity?

As recent as the Qing Dynasty, Shangdi was worshipped by the emperor at the Temple of Heaven.....and the Qing Dynasty lasted for about 300 years with the Mandate of Heaven so.....the departure shouldn't be to far back. no?

Can a kedai sembahyang cina make a 神位 for shangdi?

Where does Sakyamuni(Buddha) comes into play in Sintua? What is Buddha's position? Are there any Sakyamuni mediums?

Since 天篷元帥 is one of the 9 emperor, where does piggy come from if he is not 天篷元帥?

When you had a chat with Tua Li Ya Pek, did you ask him what Sun Wukong did in hell? Did he mess up hell during his wild days?

Hi guys,

I hope this is the correct channel for me to ask my question here.

I just invited guan yin to my new place and initiated a new home ritual. My wife and I are only staying through the weekends. Cabinets, Internet and TV are not in yet, so there's isn't much of a incentive staying at our new place. We do, however drop by every alternate day to burn incense for guan yin.

This has been going on for a while. Fast forward next year, I'm relocating to Singapore for work. I foresee I won't come back so often here. My wife will stay back, but I foresee she will be joining me over in Singapore. So, what we do with guan yin.

Coming back and burn incense every weekend, would that suffice to keep guan yin happy? Any frequency that I can be absent from my home without invoking ill-feelings with guan yin?

Additinal info, I'm atheist. I'm doing this so that my wife and her family will be at ease.

Nachtsider,

I just saw another thread talk about third eye. They saw ghost roaming around. Those are the one that hell police are trying to catch?

Also, do you have a starter pack for ghost hunter vigilantism/bounty hunter?

For example, third eye(to see ghost), the cobra whip, the wooden sword, bagua, talisman and amulet?

I know I sound really sohai asking all this question but I am serious, these are the questions I have been asking myself since I was child.

Not all roaming spirit can be catch. Spirit have a lot levels and they may reside in different plane or different dimension. Some wandering spirit can be even more powerful than ghost police. So having sacred weapon doesn't mean you can win any fight.

Do they catch non human dead soul?

Which mean accident, being killed or suicide they dint come?

Finally finished reading phew! Good thread, thanks for sharing the library of good info here. Definitely an eye opener and should serve those whom are interested well.

I just have some questions, out of curiosity and some questions are based on my own faith and its interpretation of things, just wanna see your opinion on this.
1) After a person dies, they will all go to hell to serve their punishment and then reincarnate or somewhat get ascended to heaven right ? My question is, are all newborns , result of reincarnation ? If so, the rising number of population today, would it mean that some newborns are from "New" souls? Thank you.

2) I am a shamanist and in our belief, there are several realms after death. Those who subscribed to other faiths will end up on "The other side of the river" and will be subjected to their faith's law, whereas we, will return to this world as a spirit guarding the nature, or reborn as a tree. This is why Shamanist takes great care and pride about nature and its creation. My question is, do the hell deities also collect souls outside their devotee's territory ? Lets say a Caucasian passed away in USA right now, will the black and white brothers be there ? Will they be communicating with the soul in English or will the soul remember its roots in Hokkien ? Thanks.

3) TS, with your vast experience in witnessing trances, can you share with us a few memorable questions asked by devotees and the deity's answer to them ? (I am really curious about this, I am sure some of you are too) . Thanks.

4) Some temples in Thailand, supposedly buddhist temples, has urns containing young unborn souls. I have heard they remain in the temple so that the monk's prayers can help them attain peace. Do the hell authorities actually allow this ? Thanks.

In a nutshell, sintua states that everybody goes to the same afterlife, regardless of country, creed and colour, and that people of different cultures may perceive the same gods slightly differently.

Let me give you a fr'instance.

Where death gods are concerned, Chinese folk religion has the Black and White Brothers (me in the picture, by the way ).



Haitian Vodou has Baron Samedi.



Celtic mythology has Ankou.



Korean mythology has the Jeosung Saja.



Why is it that these death gods, each of whom come from very disparate cultures seperated by thousands of miles, are all grim dudes who wear dark clothing and hats? 

Can share more details about King Yama of hell?

The Chinese Hell is divided into Ten Courts/地狱十殿. The First Court is where souls are judged for their wrongdoings, the Second to Ninth Courts are where souls undergo penance or punishment for their misdeeds, and the Tenth Court is where souls are sent to be reincarnated after they serve their sentences.

Courts 1-9 each have two levels, totalling 18 - the Eighteen Levels of Hell/地狱十八层. Each level is very vast, akin to a huge complex of correction facilities, prison cells and torture chambers. The lower numbered Courts/Levels are like low-security facilities, for minor offenders, and the higher numbered Courts/Levels are like maximum-security facilities, for the worst offenders. Court Nine/Level 17-18 would therefore be a much worse place to be in than Court Two/Level 3-4.

Take note, however, that not all penance involves blood, gore and violence. Minor misdeeds may be addressed with tasks such as studying/reproducing holy texts, or terms of servitude under a deity or deities. Also, punishments always take into consideration the context/circumstances of a misdeed. Judgement is eminently fair.

Each Court is presided over by a Judge with a kingly rank - a King of Hell/阎罗王. The leader of the Ten Judges/Ten Kings holds the title of Imperial Magistrate/阎罗天子 - he is none other than the legendary Justice Bao/包公大人.

There is taoist talisman that can use for activation when carry it. So far they use it to locate the entity or for fight. They also advice normal human don't do it or ask for it.

how is the sintua, buddhism, taoism, and even the japanese shinto mingling with each other? i mean not the believers themselves, but rather at the belief's level

as they have tremendous area of overlapping in these few faiths, albeit with slightly different interpretations regarding certain areas

Didnt know Justice Bao serves hell..

But then you got a big problem. In buddhism, to achieve enlightenment, you need to cultivate yourself and one of the effects are to achieve that said feats. So, in other words sintua does not encourage its believer to seek enlightenment? if they do, then why tell ppl not to activate the second sight when its one of required and preferred effects? This is where i start to think "feel" funny. That is what i think la.
