Beyond Belief (1999): Despite Chinese Communism's strict atheist principles, a new wave of superstitious practice is sweeping the country.

Housewife and medium Lin Yujin flails as she’s possessed by the spirit of an ancient Daoist god. She’s just one of the thousands of new mediums cashing in on the renewed Chinese passion for everything spiritual. For these people age-old superstition is indistinguishable from approved religion. It’s what families, even Party families have done for generations. Without the iron rice bowl of communist times past, it seems insecure Chinese are desperate for the luck of the gods.

Have some respect, the Chinese never got rid of the God and Goddess system even under Communism that is obvious The Religion Daoism has been known for millennia.

She's obviously full of criticism as they have always been in their attempt to discourage viewers. They still think Chinese are stupid.
When she puffed that cigarette and spoke in the most pimping lines I ever heard. I'm not sure she's a God, but she is a straight gangster.

bunch of scams, they will tell you bad luck and you need to pay tribute ($$$$$) , if your luck turned good, they will ask for comission ($$$$$). if you still have bad luck, that means you haven't paid off your previous karma, so yeah.... more and more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ required.

Any medium that charges a lot of money is most likely a scam (a few in Taiwan), legit ones give free consultations

Same with evangelical political christians!! If their predictions fail, they suddenly change their minds and curse their own nation!! It's ridiculous. The Creator isn't even political!!
Tenía una vidente que se le metía una joven de China una gran amiga y hablaba varios idiomas, ya falleció pero jamás eh vuelto a encontrar alguien como ella.
This is not Taoism, just the lost and desperate wanting riches.
So the spirt smokes cigarettes?
who is this lord zhao , never heard of him
why is it so different from western exorcism ?

Interesting. The use of such terms magic and superstition are loaded words. See my book Madness and Transcendence: A psychoanalytic Account of Chinese Tang-ki Spirit Medium Healing for another view.

@@linnzeyaaung8846 its not the stance, rather the voice changes. A manly voice turns into the voice of a child. The medium I met was not really fluent in mandarin, but when the spirit took over he spoke perfect mandarin in a northern china accent. They cut themselves, normally the tongue, for blood to write on stuff, but at the end of the event when the medium leaves, there was not even a single cut mark or drop of blood on the tongue. Its different from kung fu, where they are trained in animal stances.

@@chrisjackson8151 and yet the irony must pass you by of just how much you've managed to fail to apply your very point to yourself before writing and posting your comment to me 😂 If people like me don't offer critical insight, or at least spur on discussions, then those people out there who actually believe in such madness will forever remain in an echo chamber like the one you are suggesting be created. That will retard them, keep them ignorant, under illusion and fanciful thinking. That may be nice for you, but if you care for education, learning, scepticism, and for the minds and the vulnerabilities of others, you would be advocating for the very same as me. And if your implication, suggestion, or thinking that this egregious and manipulative behaviour is just for fun, then you demonstrate nothing less than your ignorance. This kind of fanciful thinking damages real people, in real and many ways. Unlike you however, I welcome your arguments and criticisms, and believe you me I will be here waiting I'd you wish to continue this discussion, and I will never make any attempt to shut you down 😏👍🏻
