Notes of Thai Mommy: "In the new building I had to take care of the spirits"

Anonim

Having moved to a new home, we faced a pressing problem: how to properly care for the perfume houses. After all, in addition to the large garden (for whom, according to a contract, a specially hired gardener should observe, we were inherited and a separate house for perfume.

It was possible, of course, to laugh at the Thais-Animists, however, as long as we did not make the spirits every day, something strange was happening in our house. Well, for example, from the upper shelf in the living room unexpectedly fell a carved wooden bas-relief with the image of the Buddha. Moreover, he landed before the doors of our bedroom, although in all the laws of physics could not be like this.

Here is such a house of the spirits to go from the owners. I had to take local spirits under the custody.

Getting from Thais, as it is necessary to care for the houses for the spirits, it turned out not so simple. All familiar and neighbors, to which we treated this question, smiled politely and did indefinite signs with their hands, something like: "Yes, who knows him! Do as the heart tells you. "

A daughter came to the rescue, which at school stared classmate-secretly literally on points to paint algorithm for the house of the house. The girl came across a diligent, however, and this was not having failed. Just because, as it turned out: everyone cares for the houses really as he tells him the heart.

In order to be wetting the spirits, in the store you need to buy flowers, water and food.

Someone decorates these little temples with bouquets, someone - garlands, some obscure beautiful air scarfs. Mandatory put sticks for incense. Someone installs elephant figures (so that the spirits are on what to ride), someone - even toy cars of cars (there are also huge vans and fashionable sports cars).

A separate item of the program is a treat for perfume. Thaisy somehow believes that spirits love sweet red river. Special small bottles with such liquid are sold in almost all shops. In the same shops, by the way, you can buy almost everything that it is necessary to the spirits - from bananas and pineapples (people of these fruits selected specifically for spirits do not eat), to sticks, colors and other little things.

You can change food, drinks and flowers every day, and you can once every three days. The main thing is not to forget about the existence of these invisible creatures, which, as Thais sure, is followed by every step.

It is believed that the thoroughly you care for the spirits, the more attentive to the owners, fulfilling all their most soothing desires.

Of course, it is possible to name this by self-impact, but the oddities that took place in the house were somehow ended at one moment. Glory to the spirits?
