Black Crow Sect of Ancient Khmer



Lately I have a chance to be acquainted to a disciple of the Black Crow Sect. 


What is the Black Crow Sect all about? It is a lineage of black sorcery order that stems from an ancient line of family lineage from the Ancient Khmer era.

This line of sorcery lineage only specialised in the dark arts of sorcery and witchcraft. Their main Deity that they pay homage to is the Black Crow Deity. 

In the ancient Khmer, the royal palace would have a Black Crow Lineage Sorcerer as advisor on all occult matters. The advisor would also serve as protector of the royal family from any spiritual harm.

Each generation of Black Crow Sect practitioner have strict dark precepts to adhere to such as living the life as loner and are not allow to marry and take on a family life.

In terms of executing their sorcery or involved in spiritual engagement with others, if they use the Black Crow Deity method then they will need to capture the soul of their opponent as gift to their Deity. Meaning they have to fight till either the opponent lose their life or they will have to pay with their life.

This is a very dark and ruthless form of requirement which means each practitioner will not have any hold back when engaging their enemy or opponent. Although certain Mao Shan lineage have 绝教 Ruthless requirements, it is only limit to not having family. This is also for their disciples of the lineage to go all out without any worry for possible backlash on their descendants.

But for the Black Crow Sect is to end the life of each enemy or opponent in each engagement or one would need to end one’s life if fail to do so. Therefore making them a very fearful group of sorcerer to have as an enemy or opponent.

Although all these may sound like some background story for movie storyline, the last surviving Black Crow Sect Master is still alive and well in Cambodia today. 

He has take on some disciples, and I have manage to be acquainted to one of his disciple to get to know about their lineage. The uniqueness of Black Crow Sect when they engage their magic/sorcery/force they grounds whether they do their magic will definitely have presence of crows even though you cannot spot any crow before they begin the ceremony.
