Goddess Of Mercy –
Unusual Tale
Hi
folks! I have not been writing to this blog for over a year. Instead I have
been writing to a blog titled “Unnatural Tales and Ghosts” that was set up my
sister. So I really hope you will join me at my ‘new’ blog.
I
have an unusual tale about Goddess of Mercy also known as Guanyim of Kuan Yin
according to followers from the Buddist or Taoist faith. She was a person went
through great love and sacrifices during her lifetime. Eventually she achieve immortality
in the hearts of the suffering and she was also known as “She who sees and
hears the cry from the human world”.
As
I have mentioned in my previous blog, I believe that similarities to the Christian
Virgin Mary and the Goddess of Mercy are truly uncanny. Even taking the
differences of the historic timeframes, racial and cultural aspects the
similarities in the resemblance and the remarkable lives that they led. It seems
to be the same woman! Anyway it just a thought.
Goddess
of Mercy (Guanyim or Kuan Yin)
Rosie’s
son was having terrible nightmares and was hysterical after they had taken him
to a park. The family had taken a day trip to a public park where little Timmy,
5 years old, suddenly was stricken and was wailing and crying uncontrollably.
Unable to pacify the little boy, they drove back to their house but Timmy even
try to run out of the car to their neighbourhood. When they finally managed to
force him to the house, Timmy would grab his legs in a foetal position and just
scream and cry. All he managed to say was that a ‘bad’ black figure floating
and hovering around him.
His
parents’ quickly summoned for a medical doctor to their house but he could not
find anything wrong with Timmy. Rosie used to go to a Goddess of Mercy temple
on Chinese festivals and they desperately brought a son to the temple.
After
consulting with the medium, he chanted mantras (incantations used in prayers) and
took a “fu” which is paper talisman to keep Timmy’s body from harm. Then the
medium took a red ink from the temple’s altar and dotted on Timmy’s forehead.
There
was a surge of relieve after the religiously procedures were perform, Timmy was
back to his normal and cheerful self. The medium told the parents it was spirit
annoyed about something Timmy unconsciously did.
