Wow wow this is turning to a ghost stories telling competition and I LIKE IT! I love ghost stories, they are scary but full of interesting twists!
On a more serious note, the dharma-talk-at-wake story reminded me of a weird furneral wake that I had attended.
The deceased's family invited a chanting group to help chant sutra for the deceased, this is very common in my part of the world, what was weird was before the chanting, one of the seniors (from the chanting group) started to talk to the deceased very loudly, almost shouting, he told her not to worry as her children will be fine, she has done her duty as a mother, wife n grandmother, etc etc... So now she can go to heaven in peace.. I mean the content of the talk was fine, but the way he delivered was extremely weird, he shouted every word out and almost like he was scolding her and the rest of the group repeated every single sentence he said... Absolutely crazy and weird..
The talk lasted almost 30 minutes and I set there feeling really sorry for the deceased, her didn't deserve to be harressed this way, and the talk would definitely gave her a lot of stress!! As we all know the newly dead could still see and hear what happens surrounding them...
Anyway, I didn't see any moth or butterfly that night...
