Tigers! Tigers! And snakes!
My master Ah Kong (not Deva Yakong please!!) has two pets:
one is a giant python, the other is a tiger. He has told me much secret
knowledge of snakes, tigers and the weretigers in South East Asia. I tried to
remember as far as possible before all information gone down the drain as my
memory are not as before J.
Below was what he told me (not scientifically proven, your
discretion is advised):
Tigers &
weretigers
1. The
tigers and weretigers will not attack human face on, so avoid letting the tiger
or weretiger route to your back.
2. If
you heard loud roar of a tiger, that means it is still quite far away from you;
but if the roar is as if very far away, then start running because the tiger is
around 4 meter away from you. Similarly if the voice of the weretiger is loud,
then no need to feel afraid because this is only a weak weretiger, but if the
voice of a weretiger is calm, soft and always silent, then you must be careful
because this weretiger already aiming you as a pray.
3. Dry foliage is feared by a tiger or a
weretiger. This is because once a tiger or a weretiger stepped onto dry foliage
and making a cracking noise, it will be cursed by its king of not suitable of
being a tiger; or likewise a weretiger.
4. Sure
sign of a weretiger:
a. If
the head of a person has 5 hair vortexes
b. The
notch below nose is flat
c. There
are signs at ears, ears small and rounded
d. Eyes
do not blink as long as 30 minutes
5. If
you meet a tiger in the wilderness, do not panic and run; but lies still like a
log. The tiger will just circle you and then when it has had enough, it will
leave by itself.
6. The
raw Benzoic gum is very feared by a weretiger.
7. Rattan
is also feared by a tiger and a weretiger.
8. A
tiger and a weretiger will never drink counter current from a river. It is said
that a tiger’s whiskers are poisonous and the tiger will poison itself if it
drinks from counter current.
Snakes/Naga
1. Serpent
spirits, especially the pythons are the predominant spirits in Tropics jungle
of South East Asia. They can be found inside caves, tree roots, lakes, rivers
and sea. This is by far the most easy to summon entities and will give you many
magical mustika (stones) and magical powers of all sort. The said Deva Yakong and
family are supposed to be new age Balinese sea serpent spirits.
2. Snake
spirits can also be found in towns, especially in large trees, toilets, drains and
damp corners.
3. When
there are many snakes congregate in a house, they are likely to cause fire
incidents.
4. Snakes
are afraid of sulphur; a way to get rid of snakes is to burn sulphur.
5. Snakes
are afraid of bamboo. Some people believe that bamboo is the father of snakes,
so a long bamboo is the best weapon against a snake.
6. Very
important, when you are walking in a tropic jungle, hold your machete in front
of your chest with blade facing outwards. This is to prevent the attack of a
large python. The python will loosen its grips on you once its body touches the
steel blade of your machete. If unfortunate that you did not carry any machete,
try biting the snake with your mouth and spit into its mouth.
7. Once
you have injured a snake, it will seek its revenge whenever possible. So, it is
still best to kill the snake before it seeks revenge.
8. A
centipede is the natural enemy of snakes. They will kill each other if two are
ever bought close together.
9. A
snake spirit attacks a person’s brain and central nerve system causing
hallucinations and speech difficulties.
10. The
skin of a python is very good at warding off ghosts.
