Is there a concept of abstention from sex and other forms that would be considered into the category of adultery before marriage in this field/belief? Or is this kind of thing more focused only on Abrahamic religions?

Tried searching in this thread but didn't come up with any results. smile.gif

Good evening.

I'm sure many of us here are bananas, is there such a thing whereby once one is deceased, language still isn't going to be a problem? What do you think?

From my observations, sintua is quite active among the Teowchew community. Any reasons for that?

That's odd, I'm a Teochew, most if not all of us in the family and its extensions practice Theravada Buddhism. hmm.gif

Hi Nacht, would like to ask, why is caishen considered as one of the five commissioners of pestilence (wenshen)? to my understanding those deities are associated with illnesses, but caishen is often associated with wealth instead, quite confused... hmm.gif

The God of Wealth has nothing to do with the Five Lords of Pestilence.

They are totally separate entities.

isn't one of the Five Lords of Pestilence Zhao Gongming?
