Crime and the paranormal

The man of the house would usually reverse his sarong just before he went to sleep i.e. the border of the sarong that he wore that was closest to the floor would be used to tie round his waist, while the border that was tied to his waist would then hang close to the floor. Another precaution they could take was to reverse any broom in the house just before they went to sleep; i.e. the brush of the broom was turned up, while the end of its handle rested on the floor. A third and favourite method employed by most households was to keep a pet fish. A fish does not close its eyes when it sleeps and therefore the spell will not work in a house that has a pet fish. Not all fish however could dispel all spells. While most could resist the normal spells cast by the robbers, many fish species would succumb to stronger spells. There is one fish however that can resist all spells. This is called ikan puyuh in Malaysia. It is a sort of stickleback which normally does not grow more than six inches. It is a very common fish found in all waterways in South East Asia. This fish has a silver body with three equally spaced black spots on both sides of the body. The spell will also not work if the occupants of a home are pious, and regularly engage in prayer and meditation and live without committing any vices.

My home was once attacked by a robber or group of robbers who practised this craft, but I awoke as soon as one of them entered the house, and prevented my home from being robbed. This is what happened.

I used to meditate twice everyday- in the morning and evening, during that period (I still do, but am sometimes irregular these days). I also led a clean life. I had then a large German Shepherd as a pet which was an excellent guard dog. He was extremely vigilant, and would be up at the slightest sound.
