During the lunar 7th month,
I was in Bangkok with temple members doing coffin donation charity
for ourselves and also on behalf of temple members and their family.
Penny (one of our close friend and temple member) have casually
mentioned to us that she dreamt of her late grandma. I have casually
told her that maybe her grandma needed some provision on the other
side.
When we got back to Penang, it was
close to end of the lunar 7th Month, at that time suddenly
I've also got some hints and decided to ask Penny whether she had
bought provision to burn for her grandma.
Within the day, she went to the joss
sticks shop and bought all the necessary provisions including new
paper clothes, gold papers, powders, rebirth mantra papers etc in
preparation to offer for her grandma.
Penny asked me whether anything she
should recite or say when burning those offerings for her grandma
because the ancestral tablet was not with her in Penang. I have just
told her that to think about her grandma when she burn those
offerings, and added that why don't you ask Peter to help you out.
Her husband, Peter is a disciple of our Kam Dong San Temple.
Therefore the next morning after our
conversation, Peter helped her burn those offerings by requesting our
Temple Deities to help in the confirmed delivery to her grandma.
Peter posted on my Taoist Disciple page the same day after burning the offering. |
After the offering, Penny did wonder
whether her grandma did receive it. She told me that she didnt dreamt
of her grandma anymore.
Anyhow, about 2 months after, Penny's
dad dreamt of her grandma wearing a beautiful floral blouse. Penny's
dad is also a Taoist cultivator. Her parent asked around the family
on whether anyone burn any offering to their grandma. But nobody have
burn anything matching the description of what his dad saw in the
dream.
Then Penny realized that the blouse
description matches exactly one of the blouse which she offered to her
grandma, of course her dad have no idea what she burned for her grandma
as the offering was done in her own home.
Peter relayed to me last week, that when he burn the offering and request the help of our deities, he did it with 100% trust and faith that they will help him. Faith and trust in Kam Dong San deities
have again show the efficacy of all the deities in helping members
and disciple.
Is there another world after we move on? I will leave
that for you to decide.....
