Not daring to reply? Aw, man. I don't bite, you know. And neither do the gods - unless you're a bad person, of course. tongue.gif

Maybe I should've created this thread in the regular /k section, lol. All the other threads on ghosts, gods and devils seem to be located over there.
I might swing by, thanks. I'm not a PJ resident, but enjoy listening to ghost stories of all kinds.
You and me both, haha. I've had several encounters myself, most of which were nothing serious. In fact, I can say that only ONE of my encounters was truly extreme/nasty, and it was this encounter, which took place during the Hungry Ghost Festival many, many years ago, that started me on my current religious path, because one the gods whom I pray to probably saved my life then.
i'm not pj resident also...but hearing from them...it keeps getting more and more ridiculous...
same with me...i also kena at the same time...14th of hungry ghost festival..some more zhun2 12am sharp...
but for me, 心要正 then okay ady...this is what i keep mentioning in my heart back in botanical garden just now...
i keep saying, 一横,一竖,一横,一竖,一横...心要正....that walk by it...
some might say, u should go over there and check it out..but the timing also zhun2 during sunset time, when ghost starting to lurk around....i prefer let it be...

Most ghostly beings are usually quite content to keep themselves to themselves. I believe we generally have more to fear from other humans than ghosts.

Hi Energy, there is nothing wrong at all about stopping by wayside shrines or temples and paying your respects there. If said places are isolated or rarely visited, the gods enshrined within might even see this as a nice gesture on your part, and smile upon you. But of course, to pray merely in the hope of obtaining blessings from the gods is not a good attitude to adopt.

Bald-facedly asking the gods for favours, particularly selfish favours born of greed, is very poor form. You can expect such requests to be ignored outright. If you are deemed to be particularly undeserving, some sort of admonishment might very well take place.

A virtuous person in genuine/dire need of help who approaches them, however, is another story entirely.
