The spirit of ‘the skull’ was initially a common soul. From the time she was recruited to join the Shaman’s gang of demons, she would be trained to carry out evil acts under the supervision of the senior demons. Demons were originally troops of a certain organized lawful body in the government of the invisible world, but had violated the law when they secretly ganged up to commit crimes. The higher authority in the invisible government has not yet noticed the wrong doings of this evil gang because they are very good at concealing their true identities. As they start to break the law by committing more serious crimes, they will be investigated, charged and convicted.

When a common person starts to practice “Magical skull” under a shaman, he is said to have joined a criminal organization. The beheaded female ghost (mentioned in the previous story) is a new recruit, therefore she only has very limited and negligible skills. The gang of senior demons led by the shaman are the real commanders behind all of their criminal activities. Only them could commit crimes and not the newbie female ghost. The belief that the female ghost (her skull) has real magical power is false and that is why I had said, ‘Female ghost is incapable of anything but scaring people’.

When charged in the invisible court of law, the shaman is the main culprit. The person who practices the ghost’s skull is his accomplice. The female ghost herself is, at best, a spirit and victim of exploitation. The punishment given by heaven’s court varies depending on the severity of the crimes committed. If it involves murder, the shaman will be sentenced to death. If robbery was committed, the sentence will be an intermediate one. If it is theft, the sentence will be lighter.
By seeing how the gang member, the shaman, and his family are punished, one can have some idea as to what degree the shaman had broken celestial laws.

Old_Guru knows of 3 specific examples of 3 people who have worked for Deities. They are the following:

• An adept guru had 2 books on magic arts: 1 for dark (bad) magic and 1 for white (good) magic. He once had a dispute with a neighbor and so cast a spell on him, but it caused the death of the neighbors son instead. Soon after, his own son died of a sudden death. Thereafter, he understood that this was a result of his bad karma and burned the dark magic arts book, leaving only the white magic arts book. He lived to over 90 years of age.

• There was a very well known fortune-teller from Saigon who was rumored to have practiced the Magical Skull. At the end of his life, an intruder came into his house at night and killed him by cutting his throat.

• There is another fortune teller who was said to have practiced dark magic because of his accurate readings. Later on, his wife also practiced fortune-telling and advertising widely such services as physiognomy reading, feng shui, and mending broken marriages.
Whether the man had practiced the Sacred Skull magic or not, his wife and daughter eventually died with their throats slit.

Until next time…
