I want to tell you all about one strange, funny and cute thing happen to my house “Hio Low”. You know what, yesterday night when I wanted to burn joss stick to pray my Kuan Yin, suddenly I noticed that my “Hio Low” is growing plants! Look carefully at the above pictures. I counted the plants and total are 9 plants grown.
The plants are actually comes from the “4-type-beans” that put inside the “Hio Low” and cover up by the joss stick ashes. The strange is that how can the plants grow in the “Hio Low” where no water, no soils and the environment in “Hio Low” is hot! It is ridiculous!
I did not know what to do with the plants and what is the meaning of the plants that Kuan Yin address to both of us (my wife and I)? The next day which is today, I called up one of the Sifu that I know well. I consult his advice and opinion regarding the plants. Well, he is asking us to bring my “Hio Low” to his temple and he will do a little prayer and steps on how to settle this matter.
When we both reached his temple, we hand over our “Hio Low” to Sifu and he smile at us and said this is a very cute and funny thing happens. And it is the first time he sees plants grow in the “Hio Low”! Later, Sifu starts his prayers. He is asking my wife whether we want to grow the plants or not. My wife said “Yes, of course as these plants are so special to both of us”. Then Sifu separated out the plants to flower pot and give it to my wife. He then continues with his prayers and steps. He then put in the new “4-type-beans” and replaces the joss stick ashes for us. We drive back home our “Hio Low” with 3-burnt joss sticks until we reach our house. We did a few steps that teach by Sifu that we must follow before and after entering to our house until we placing back the “Hio Low” at the alter.
According to Sifu, we should feel happy as this is a good sign and nothing to worry about. He also jokes with us that we must call the media to come and snap photos and published the story out in the newspaper…hahahaha!
Well, a few more photos to share with you all...
