Do you think Voodoo exists?  email this discussion to a friend?

I don't mean just voodoo from new orleans where they create zombies and make dolls to torture you and things like that. This includes things like the Thais and their curses. A lot of people go to Thailand to wash away whatever curses because they believe that they've been hexed. In Asian society, black magic is an integral part of life..especially with the Taoists. We have something here called "loktang". Usually takes place in a house that's filled with altars and deities' statues and such. I've seen this and the guy started talking in a girl's voice, supposedly one of the deities. Of course, maybe he just changed his voice.

My question is, do you believe that people can be hexed or cursed? Or if voodoo dolls really work? You know, things like that.

to a certain point, yes i believe that such things really work.

the reason such things like curses etc. seem to work, is the minds ability to fool itself.

if you really believe that someone cursed you, then everything that goes bad you will automatically blame on the "curse". it is logical to you because you believe you've been cursed.

however if you dont believe in it at all, then it wont affect you. you will attribute anything bad that might happen to coincidence instead.

the power of the mind is incredible when you consider things like medical miracles. ppl honestly believe that someone/thing can heal them...and many really have been "healed" of their affliction...even cancer patients!

I've never seen it from that point of view. I know! my friend's dead was diagnosed with cirhossis and it was terminal. The doctor gave him 3 months max but now he's all healed. They're roman catholics but went to some temple instead to ask for blessing and a cure I guess. Our church community condemned him for going to the temple but u know what, can you blame him? Noone wants to die. I know I'd be willing to try anything too if I were diagnosed with a terminal disease.

I believe there is Good and evil; and evil manifests itself in various forms, at home and abroad.

I don't know, for sure, what is out there so i try to avoid all wierdish things/people ... as prevention is better that cure.

It's all in your mind.

I like that phrase. "speaking what isn't as though it were until it is" I don't know what I believe in. I'm just asking what others are thinking; with reference to the topic.

OOhh definitely.. I've seen pple who are actually possessed.. Once they are cured.. they have no memory of what had happened at all... Not sure if you know what "Bomoh" are.. but basically there are bad and good "Bomohs".. These pple can be hired to do bad things to satisfy their clients desire.. for eg.. to caste a black magic to a nearby food stall so that their own might prosper.. I know coz my aunt had the same experience, her business suddenly went downhill after she discovered "soil" in front of her stall. After consulting a good "Bomoh" she was told it was soil from the cemetary..her business never recovered..

So, YES, i do believe in hexes and curses.. call me old fashioned but saw it too many times NOT to believe.


myLot reputation of 94/100. hopefoo (701)   ranked 424 out of 2,146 in life  6 years ago

AHA! Now I know what to do to my competitors!! YESSS *mwahhahahahah mwahahahahah* lol :) Nah, I've heard that before, putting cemetary soil infront of people's houses/shops/stalls. Didn't think that it actually works. And yeah! I definitely know what a Bomoh is, though I've never met one.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ladyjava (600)  6 years ago

You ah....heheh.. any cementary soil would not do.. you have to get the "Bomoh' to do something to it... to put a curse to it.. it's like a medium...an interface.. ok..


myLot reputation of 94/100. hopefoo (701)   ranked 424 out of 2,146 in life  6 years ago

haha thanks for the info. Now, got a Bomoh to refer to me? hahahah

I personally very much believe that the unbelievable is real and very much shouldn't played with. Black magic, white magic, voodoo, psychics, esp, visions etc., you should be very careful when practicing with these, if you're not experienced with them. Do not bother trying... even for fun! Hexes and curses are as real as they come.


myLot reputation of 94/100. hopefoo (701)   ranked 424 out of 2,146 in life  6 years ago

Okay. Goddit. I've always wondered about that. We played with an ouija board once when I was younger. It did move but I suspected that my friend was moving it then. Thinking back, maybe she wasn't. Who's to know now eh? I'm not gonna try it again lol

The first and last time I've ever used a Oiuja board was in a monastery. It was very freaky, lights when out and everything that would scare people happened, the only thing I got out of that was a warning and guardian angel named Marcus, who lived in the year of 1816 he was only 10 years. Since then I've always been fortunate to see my own future. Basically, anything that was to cross my path, I've been lucky to see it happen before it really happen. Before Marcus left, he gave me the gift and yes I could see Marcus in ghost form. For all I knew, he could have been the devil in disguise.


myLot reputation of 94/100. jazzafrazz (558)   ranked 543 out of 2,146 in life  6 years ago

In the monastery there were 10 of us, from catholic high school, yeah, I know... we're not non-believers now. That's why we tried it. "Curiosity killed the cat", At first nothing did happen... as far as most of us saw... then the light went out, it was raining.. as it was raining I was mesmerized by the ghostly sight I saw outside.. it was a little kid about 10 yrs., and I knew we were on the second floor, so seeing hime there was freakish enough. Unfortunately I was the only one that could see him. My friends told me that when I was talking to him, it had seemed like I was in a trance of kind. He even picked me up... that was freaky for them. Since then we vowed not to use anything like ever again.

yes i do think that voodoo exists.and not the new orleans type.i mean the african type.and i see that you are from Thailand?but to answer your question first of all,yes i think that voodoo works,and that hexes are real.i once put a hex on a ex-friend of mine and he lost everything.i mean he lost his job,his wife,his car got torn up.and now do you know where he is?he is living back with his mother.lol.so yes it is real as real as it can get.and now to talk to you about Thailand,i am half Thai,which makes my mother full blood.i have been to Thailand b4 and never seen the facts of this voodoo being cursed on a family.maybe it is down south near Phuket.b/c i think that they have always had problems with muslims and watnot.but i been there too.my cousin lives there in Phuket and i wonder if she ever had this pr;oblem b4.but thanks for the question.i never did know that my ppl dealt with this kind of stuff b4.
dark blessings,

Yes, hexes and curses exist, but I'm more concerned with the situations you have just brought up in Asia regarding magic. Is it really that prevalent and is it an inspiration to the popular music of the day? And exactly what is Thailand like? I would love to know more.
