Changi was a burial ground in World War II cos the Japanese said to execute some 600,000 men there, and so was Tekong. Anyone who attended BMT training there will testify to that. -

How does a ghost look like? heard from a monk that it looks just like humans in their everyday lives isnt it?
-
for me i don't know what i saw considered ghost? "they" look like shadows one pitch black of shadows that can swift pass a wall like normal or appear at the corner of my eyes and standing very very tall and big size. no features hands nothing just black solid shadow n form....
sometimes can be white. sometimes can't see but can sense their presence.
hehee

didnt you go ask monks or nuns for advise or clarification? -
when 1st time i saw the black thing about 2meters away beside me from the corner of my eyes, yes i was terrified cos never in my life i seen felt something like that. i was trembling with fear and u know what? i was standing in front of buddha image when that happened. i was so afraid that i couldn't stand straight line!Originally posted by marcteng:really. are you scared when you saw these?
didnt you go ask monks or nuns for advise or clarification? i was very afraid but thats not the solution. i bowed to buddha and kept silent & walked away not wanting to look at the black form face to face. i locked myself in my bedroom still trembling. then felt my hair rising on one hand for 2times. surely not the feeling of cold and no goose bumps just hair standing. i know i have to go through it & not avoiding by jumping into bed cover with blanket that only makes matter worst. so i just keep on reminding myself to be calm and seek out to bodhisattvas and buddha to guide me. -
i'm in one encounter before- in Pulau Ubin.. that island is extremely UNCLEAN!

I saw a hand reaching out to me that was not mine. Not a human.

That was a long long time ago.. at that time I didn't have the habit of chanting. When I was younger. My dharma teacher says it's easier for young people to see them because their 'yang qi' not enough.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:I saw a hand reaching out to me that was not mine.

I think your teacher is influenced by chinese yin and yang philosophy lar.Originally posted by An Eternal Now:That was a long long time ago.. at that time I didn't have the habit of chanting.

Buddha didnt say yin & yang rite, did he? -
It is completely true. Maybe 'qi' is not really the correct word - Sinweiy says Buddhism talks about 'brightness', which I agree. My Shi fu usually says 'brightness', but my dharma teacher also sometimes say 'yin/yang qi'. When you chant, naturally there will be brightness.Originally posted by marcteng:I think your teacher is influenced by chinese yin and yang philosophy lar.

My dharma teacher could point out who got 'yin qi'. She knows when I brought someone to her before with a few others. That person could see spirits and used to be involved with spirit medium practises. She pointed out the person...

fear for the unknown, supernatural, maybe fear for death and fear of the imagination.
humans like to imagine things, like imagine how ghosts would look like. like maybe got blood or long hair or eyeless form. -
