QUOTE(putra23 @ Feb 22 2022, 11:00 AM) Nice article. In my area, I didnt see any Datok Gong shrine....so 1 day I looked out of my balcony, and said: is there a datok Gong here? After a few seconds, I heard a voice...a very old voice saying ' Yes, ada'.  So I bought a Datok Gong 'Papan' to pray to that Datok Gong.This post has been edited by empire: Feb 24 2022, 01:49 PM |

QUOTE(nihility @ Feb 25 2022, 11:01 AM) You are gifted with the "3rd eye" & selected by the guardian ? certain people can see ghosts and talk to ghosts/spirits/gods. Some cant see ghosts...but can 'feel' them. People like me can communicate with them but I cant see them or 'feel' them. When these spirits/ghosts/gods speak to me, they dont speak into my ear...but directly into my head....so no one can hear them but me. |

QUOTE(nihility @ Feb 25 2022, 12:05 PM) It is a heavy responsibility, better don't see. I know neighbor of the same generation, she got picked by the "guardian" to serve around 40+. Cannot decline one. I am not chosen by them to be a Tangki LOL!. I have helped people who are facing problems in life asked me to ask the gods for direction in their life. If they pray to Lord Ganesh (aka Hindu Elephant God), I will ask Lord Ganesh for them. If they pray to Guan Gong, I will ask Guan Gong for them. After they get the answers from these deities via me, they will know what they need to do. Yes they gave me ang pao for my help though I didnt ask for any. Most of them directly bank into my bank account as a gesture of appreciation for my time and effort. |

QUOTE(nihility @ Feb 25 2022, 03:23 PM) Sound like a telepathy in the movie. Its something like that. I hear their voice...and each DEITY has his/her own distinct voice. |

QUOTE(hotNcool @ Oct 3 2022, 04:48 PM) but now, burning joss paper and incense seems like this tradition would disappear year by year, i not sure will this tradition keep going for coming ages? Naw...there are many young people in their 20's who have taken over this role from their parents. |

QUOTE(hotNcool @ Oct 4 2022, 08:16 AM) im not really got the chance to see these practice, even 7th month of lunar calendar, i mostly saw just aunties burning it, my 4 nephews all in their 20's took over the role of burrning joss papers for more than 5 years. They said they will continue to honour this tradition and pass on to their kids later.and during the Nine Emperor Gods Festival, it felt so different when all ages practice and show their belief, thats so impressive.. |

QUOTE(hotNcool @ Oct 4 2022, 03:04 PM) thats nice to know, im lazy , and i only visit to temple when got god celebration, but i think it helps to conserve it even a small effort, right? There are many reasons why the Deities want burnt offerings. I can tell you more via PMoh yeah btw, a youtuber called ah jie did a great job in promoting our tradition in belief! |
