Taoist 7 Steps Exorcism Method (七步驱鬼法)

She gave us a creepy smile through the mirror reflection at us when we entered the

room...

The Taoist 7 steps exorcism method is one of the most powerful exorcism methods

available out there to exorcise any spirit out from a place. It is not easy to perform this

ritual as the magician must be powerful enough to control the spirit he or she wishes

to cast out. Furthermore, this 7-step method is a very rude way of saying to the spirit

to go to hell with one-way ticket.

I have only performed this ritual once and that was about 20 years ago when I dared

to try anything without due consideration to the risks. This true incident happened to

my school mate Ah Beng and the scene is set in Taiping.

Treat me a cup of tea!

For those folks who know Taiping quite well, they must know that there is a market

place where people congregated to bet on rain falls (赌雨). On both sides of the

market there were and there still are rows of double story pre-war buildings. Ah Beng

was staying in the second floor of one of the buildings.

Ah Beng got married fairly early, that is after his ‘O’ Level exam he married his wife Ah

Mei and they were only 18 years old when they got married. Both of the couple was

managing a small hawker stall selling roast pork and chicken. I was then a frequent

customer of Ah Beng’s stall because I would pass by the stall daily on route to work.

Things got pretty smoothly for Ah Beng for first few years or so. I can’t remember

since when it was Ah Beng who managed his stall alone. I held my curiosity to myself

until one day that I just busybody enough to open my big mouth.

Me: “Where’s your ‘cha boh’ (wife)? I haven’t seen her for quite some time.”

Beng: “Oh, she wasn’t feeling too well… I asked her to rest at home.”

Me: “Listen, your face looks very dim and your eyes look tired… there must be

something troubling you…”

On hearing that, Beng invited me to sit on a chair and he pulled another chair and sat

beside me. So happened that there weren’t any customers, we started to talk.

Beng: “Well, to tell you the truth, my ‘cha boh’ acted pretty weird lately… she would

comb her hair repeatedly alone in front of her makeup table in the dark. At time she

would sing and smile at the mirror. When I asked the ‘cha boh’, she would ignored my

queries and only reply me with a cold smile that sent the coldness down under to my

spine!”

I looked at my watch and it was around 2pm, so I figured that it will be better to visit

Ah Beng’s place after night. I will need to make some preparations before I go for my

safety considerations…

Me: “I’ll go to your place at 8pm tonight but I’ll need to get some stuff…”

Ah Beng agreed and we parted after chatting on other things for few more minutes.

How time flies, it was already 8pm. Ah Beng and I was at the doorstep of Ah Beng’s

place. Though the temperature was pretty warm, there was a sense of chillness came

out from the apartment.

Ah Beng opened the main door and let me step in first…

As what had been described, Mei was sitting in front of her mirror combing her hair.

She looked skinnier and instead of greeting us, she continued to do what she like best

while her eyes veered at us from the reflection with a very strange smile that

somehow showed her hostility.

I quietly told Ah Beng that it looked like Mei was possessed and in order to proof my

doubt. I drew seven small circles on the floor with the final circle facing the main door.

After that I burnt a piece of joss stick and started to chant while stepping on the first

circle…

As I chanted, the atmospheric pressure in the place suddenly increased. For every

step forward, the pressure increased still until I stepped onto the last circle where the

room was pressurized to the max. At this point, Ah Beng collapsed onto the floor and I

felt difficulties to breathe…

Finally I stormed my right foot, broke the joss stick, pointed to the main door and

shouted: “Get out!”

At this point, the door suddenly slammed opened, a gust of wind rushed out of the

house and I was thrown about 10 feet back with my back slammed heavily onto a wall

as if a kite that has lost its string.

Within seconds, the pressure inside the room was gone. Ah Beng gathered himself

and managed to pull me up too.

We went to the bedroom and found laid fainted face down on the makeup table.

Ah Beng propped his wife up and after sprinkling some cold water, Mei finally woke up

and she has no recollection of what so ever of her experience.

After the incident, Ah Beng finally decided to move house. As for me, I won’t want to

engage in anything similar anymore. That was the most horrible experience I had ever

experiences as the power and the danger were so real and powerful!

Cured By A Cup Of Tea (一杯水之债)

This is a personal story told by one of my late medium acquaintance from Guangdong,

China some time ago. I just recall it and recorded it in this posting for sharing

purposes before it is wiped out from my memory.

There are many types of spirit mediums in Chinese culture, the medium I refer to here

is also known as “asking rice” (问米婆). Her name is Aunty Ann and she was quite

famous in her profession as a medium who acted as a bridge between the life and the

dead.

One day, a gentleman known as Mr. Wong from Hong Kong came to Aunty Ann to ask

for help. Apparently Mrs. Wong was suffered from final stage of lung cancer and was

sent home by the good doctors for the family to make final preparations.

Aunty Ann was just like you and me when not going into trance. So, she asked Mr.

Wong to be seated and she will ‘go down to underworld’ to fetch Mr. Wong’s late

father to ask if there is any hope for his Mrs.

After some mumbo jumbo, Aunty Ann’s head begun to shake and her body begun to

tremble as if being possessed. A few minutes lapses and finally a seemingly familiar

voice came out from Aunty Ann’s throat:

“… Son, if you wanted to cure your wife, then quickly go to a village in Shanxi (山西)

and look for a farmer call Wenxi and ask for him to give you a cup of tea to bring back

to Hong Kong for your wife… Once your wife consumed the tea, then she will

recover… Wenxi owed a favor to your wife in the past years so now is the time to ask

him to repay his karmic debt. Remember, you must bring back the tea within 7 day’s

time…”

Before Mr. Wong can ask further, Aunty Ann shivered for a while and regained her

consciousness. Apparently the spirit of Mr. Wong’s father is gone back to the

underworld.

So Mr. Wong thought it wasn’t too difficult to try as he loved his wife a lot. In order to

find out the truth, Mr. Wong travelled to Shanxi the next day. After some searching, he

finally arrived in front the door of Wenxi.

Mr. Wong started to knock on the wooden door for a while and finally a gentleman

opened the door and asked: “Who are looking for?”

Mr. Wong said: “I am looking for Wenxi.”

The gentleman: “Do you know Wenxi?”

Mr. Wong: “No. Where can I find Wenxi?”

The gentleman: “I am Wenxi. Do I know you?”

Mr. Wong: “No. You don’t know me but I have a favor to ask…”

So good old Mr. Wong told Wenxi the whole story and naturally Wenxi brushed aside

the story and treated Mr. Wong as a psycho. But Mr. Wong kept bagging and under

the promise of a handsome payment, Wenxi finally agreed and poured a cup of tea for

Mr. Wong to bring back to Hong Kong…

Once home, Mr. Wong immediately gave his wife the ‘special’ tea to drink.

After three weeks, since Mrs. Wong was still well and healthy, she went back to the

hospital for a follow up check up.

It was to the doctor’s surprised that Mrs. Wong’s cancer was gone!

No one can explain the above incident until today.

The above story was quite a sensation for quite a while in Hong Kong.

There were and perhaps still are many people use Aunty Ann’s name to attract

unwary customers in China and Hong Kong now days.

The FS Minor Life Foundation Method(风水小生基法)

Minor life foundation for Immortal Liew

Basically there are two types of life force methods; the major and the minor.

Naturally, the major life foundation is more powerful than the minor, but it is more

difficult to do it good. So, the alternative is to use the minor foundation method which

is much simpler and easy to perform.


6 of 15 10/06/2014 09:52 AM


There are many methods in performing the minor life foundation; the actual

implementation would depend on individual school. As the saying goes:

"各师各法各神通。"

“Different master, different method, different power.”

One method made popular by a Hong Kong occultist is just to put a person’s personal

belongings (finger nails and hairs) into an incense burner and the incense burner is

worshipped in his altar.

The more powerful minor life foundation is as shown in the above illustration.

Say that Mr. Liew wanted to do the minor life found for himself, first he must construct

a statue of a deity with the face look similar to himself. Then he must find or construct

a temple for people to worship this statue. Mr. Liew must also give this statue a name

such as “Immortal Liew” (刘大仙) for example.

Now as before, Mr. Liew must also put his personal stuffs into a large incense burner

for visitors to burn their incense. The more visitors; then more power will be bestowed

to Mr. Liew.

When Mr. Liew dies, he will be worshipped as a local god.

Perhaps that too, explains why the Chinese have got so many gods and goddesses.

So far, I have seen a Taiwanese Taoist practise the second method.

When I visited a temple in Kaoshong, I thought the face of the deity looks somehow

similar to the temple caretaker. So I ventured to ask him concerning my doubt and he

pulled me aside and told me this secret. I am not sure if anyone beyond Taiwan knows

such a method however.

It Takes More Than Voodoo To Win

The lost of Brazilian football team in World Cup 2014 to Germany has really stunted

the world and that too has also broken my pal’s heart. Despite powerful warlords and

witches with countless sessions of publicized voodoo ceremonies and fanfares; Brazil

still lost to Germany 7 to 1.

I am no fan of football as to look at a bunch of men chasing a ball around the field for

90 minutes can’t be boring enough. Indeed to many folks, they aren’t really interest in

football but the betting. It is said that if you don’t bet, then it is no fun to watch a life

football match.

Likewise, the same situation happens to civil suit cases in Singapore and Malaysia.

Before 2014, I seldom being consulted on civil suits; but just this year I already had 4

cases at least…

Amongst the cases are the cases of:

Building committee Vs former treasurer

· “Who has taken our money?!”

House owner Vs fund contributor

· Formerly lovers but now parted and wanted the investment back

Business proprietor Vs investors

· Investors wanted out but owner refused to pay back

Between business owners

· “I want him out from my business!”

So, how to go about these civil cases incorporating magic rituals?

I am no lawyer and not at liberty to discuss openly all of the above cases, just some

experience to share though. Most of the above cases normally fall into ‘grey area’; it is

up to one’s wit to wriggle one’s way out through mediations. I supposed the

government doesn’t care of the outcome as they are not criminal cases:

· Get the facts right: who has the advantage? I think there is a tendency of “You

are guilty unless proven innocent” happening in recent cases: At least I was

being consulted 3 cases out of 4 from Singapore this year alone…

· If you receive summonses from court, then get yourself a good lawyer and do

an assessment of your case.

· Most of the civil suit cases will go into mediations as no one wanted the case

to be prolonged: very expensive!

· It is during the mediations that magic can perhaps to be used on the outcome

of settlements; which also depends on your opponent’s ability to pay as well.

Personally, I don’t like to be consulted on civil suit cases as there are many hidden

areas and people don’t normally tell the truth. Anyway, it is indeed a new exposure to

an occultist to work on such cases and thus enhancing one’s practical magic

experiences.

Empowering Massage Healing Hands

We have at times wondered on how a healer can alleviate a patient’s pain by simply

placing his/her hands on the patient’s discomfort part. There are many ways to go

about and below are just some of the tricks anyone can pick up:

The Chinese Qigong (气功)

A Qigong master can channel chi into his/her hands until this hands felt warm. After

that, the hands are placed on patient’s discomfort part for about 5~10 minutes.

The Taoist Mulberry Hands (摸桑手)

On the 5th day of the 5th lunar month, one must go to a mulberry tree and plug some

mulberry leaves. Chew up the leaves and then spit the mashed leaves together with

saliva onto one’s palms. Rub both hands until dry and avoid washing hands for 3

days. After the empowerment period, the hands are said to be very effective in curing

fracture, tumors, pains etc.

The Japanese Reiki (灵气)

The Reiki need not be introduced further. There are many variants of Reiki and

amongst these variants; there are many levels too. Once empowered, a practitioner’s

hands can be used to cure various sicknesses.

The Since Of Longevitology (长生学)

As with Japanese Reiki, this is the Taiwanese variant. This practice is pretty popular in

Singapore and Malaysia.

The Javanese nectar of gods

One must first collect some morning dew from the roof of a chicken bun. The dew is

then poured onto one’s palms and rubbed until dry. It is said that this will empower the

hands to be a pair of healing hands.

The Hikmah Massage Healing

One must chant the verse “Allahumma syaffi mariidhana” repeatedly while placing the

hands on painful part.

I am sure there are many more methods out there, if you know any variants; then

please let me know.

The Deity Of Old Dynasties: Guan


10 of 15 10/06/2014 09:52 AM

Gong (亦把关公比天公)

There was such a story told by a local cult religion (一贯道) that the Jade Emperor (玉皇大帝) will resign and his position will be taken over by Guan Gong (关公). For

Chinese, Guan Gong is the most worshiped and respected Taoist deity today. We see

this deity pretty often in Hong Kong detective and ghost movies: it is always a scene

in a police station that Guan Gong is worshiped in an altar.

The main reason Guan Gong is so popular because he was said to be extremely

generous (豪气如云) and the beholder of brotherhood (义薄云天). There are many

stories told about the heroic behavior of Guan Gong such as: defeating of six generals

(过五关斩六将), in search of brother and sister-in-law (寻兄送嫂), the brother hood in

palm orchid (桃园三结义), the rider of a thousand miles (千里走单骑) and etc.

Well, that was what described by epics such as ‘The Romance Of The Three

Kingdoms” (三国演义) now let us see what the actual history has to say about Guan

Gong:

Why is Guan Gong being honored as 'the saint of warfare' (武圣)? Why the three

brothers (刘备，关公，张飞) failed to defeat Lubu (吕布) and yet worthy of being

bestowed as the saint? It should be other way round.

The history has it that Guan Gong was a hardheaded self centered (刚愎自用), braved

but not so tactful militant (有勇无谋的武夫). During the Three Kingdoms (三国),

Caocao (曹操) of Kingdom Wei (魏国) was the strongest and it was possible for

Kingdom Shu (蜀国) and Kingdom Wu (吴国) to defend against Wei, but due to Guan

Gong's ruthlessness in offending the King Shunquan (孙权) from Wu; the cooperation

was ruined.

According to the story, Guan Gong has a pretty daughter while King Shunquan has a

not so handsome son. Shunquan's prince wanted to marry Guan Gong's daughter but

the proposal was refused by Guan Gong. That was no big deal if Guan Gong had not

agreed with the marriage, but the disagreement should be declined politely as

Shunquan was still the king of Wu. Guan Gong was so rude in hurting Shunquan by

saying:

“The daughter of a tiger cannot marry the son of a dog.”

“虎女岂可配犬子.”

Needless to say, the plan for Shu and Wu to join force failed.

Prior to Qing Dynasty, the title “saint of warfare” referred to Yuefei (岳飞) as he has

practically won all wars he has participated and the reason was also Yuefei also very

loyal and ready to serve his emperor.

When the Manchurian took control of China, they used authoritative yet soft approach

to control the Chinese of that time and made use of the slogan:

“The world (China) is one family.”

“天下本一家.”

In order to emphasize the approach, the Manchurian made use of the story of ‘brother

hood in palm orchid’ (桃园三结义) and bestow Guan Gong as the ‘Saint of Warfare” to

unite the Chinese folks and that worked pretty well and proven in history too until

today…

There is probably one or two temple worshipping Yuefei, but there are countless of

temples worshipping Guan Gong. I would attribute this to the wit of the Manchurian

emperor of that time.

Wonders why that a reckless militant that has no special contribution to history in

particular can be worshipped as a saint and that person who has really contributed a

lot to his race and country is being neglected so?

That, my friend; is history.

That is also something we need to think about…

Conjuring The Spirit Of A Basket (菜篮仙)


12 of 15 10/06/2014 09:52 AM

Conjuring spirits of baskets is a folk game inherited in many Southeast Asian cultures.

While the Chinese call it “the immortal of baskets” (菜篮仙), the Malaysian and

Indonesian call it “Jailangkung”. Such game was once popular in villages and before

the advent of electronic gadgets. We can occasionally come across people make use

of this folk game to perform divination and also to ask for lucky numbers.

It is not difficult to conjure spirit of a basket but we will first need to make the effigy of

the spirit and dress it first as shown above. When the effigy is assembled, the game

can be started after dark normally after dinner. We will need 3 players. In old days, we

will need two young girls holding the hands of the effigy and a third person as the

conjuror.

The conjuror will stand in front of the effigy holding 3 pieces of burning incense sticks.

While swinging the incenses to and fro, the person must chant the below mantra

repeatedly until the effigy moves by a mystical force:

“菜篮仙，菜篮神，菜篮请你来上身。一呼请，二呼请，三呼请，呼请菜篮神仙来上身。上身坐乩真灵应，诚心请神降来临，急急如律令。”

“Immortal of basket, god of basket, I invoke the basket to possess. I call once, twice

and thrice, calling the god to possess me. Possess me and do wonders. I invoke you

sincerely. As my will, so mote it be!”

Now that the spirit has arrived, interested parties can start asking what they want to

know including lucky number picks of course. When the service of basket spirit is no

Labels: Folk Cult, Malay Magic, Taoist Magic

longer desired, then it should be sent off by simply saying:

“祈请菜篮神仙退神归位！”

“I request the basket god to return to where you belonged.”

After the basket spirit is dismissed, the effigy should be stored in a quiet corner to be

used later. Only when the service of basket spirit is no longer needed and the effigy is

to be dismantled, then it is appropriate to prepare some food offerings and burn some

incense to thank the spirit.

Taoist Borrowing Life Ritual (借寿法术)

When a person is in his/her terminal stage, it is a norm still for some of Chinese folks

to go to temples or visit spirit mediums to perform rituals in the hope to prolong the

love one’s life. But if the person is determined by the gods or goddesses that his/her

life is coming to an end; there is nothing one can do but to prepare for the funeral

services and the wake.

However, if the person is the sole income earner and that he/she is still young in such

a way that if he/she dies; then the whole family wouldn’t be able to live. Then there is

a Taoist ritual known as “borrowing life”.

Basically, this ritual can only be done amongst the parents and children and it is not

workable amongst brothers, sisters or amongst relatives. The life can only be

borrowed for two seasons max; with 5 years as one season and no more than that.

Anyone who wanted the ritual to be performed must first write a written statement

Labels: Taoist Magic

indicating both parties’ personal particulars including date of birth, the duration of life

to be borrowed. This chore is best to be done by the Taoist who will later carry out

further rituals as he should be familiar on how the statement should be written. In

normal circumstances one should prepare three copies of borrowing life statements.

After that, an auspicious date is selected and the Taoist will bring the requestors to the

temple of Lord of Death, in this case it is the “Emperor of the Eastern Mountain” (东岳大帝) and the “Three Judges of Northern Yin” (北阴三司) where two copies of the

statements are burnt in front of the statues of the deities and the final copy must be

burnt in front of the house deities.

While burning the statements for borrowing life, the person must make a wish such as

to donate to the poor or to employ monks and Taoists to perform deliverance rituals

for the wandering spirits. If the ritual is fruitful, then the dying person will recover within

three days’ time.

However, if the person dies after the ritual, then the person who had ‘borrowed’ life to

the deceased must visit the temple of the Lord of Death to revoke the agreement or

his/her life span will be shortened too.

My personal take is: while performing the above “borrowing life” ritual, one must also

seek the help of modern medicine too so as not to miss the patient’s critical moment

that would make the love ones regret for whole of their lives.
