Some people think they're immune from consequences. Then they are surprised when the consequences appear. I think it is ironic that Liu begged Buddha for relief, when Buddha taught the Eightfold Path plainly to tell people how to end their suffering and dissipate consequences. Liu could have been happy by his own actions instead of relying on prayer. I think even Amitabha Buddha doesn't take murderers to the Pure Land.

It is hilariously tragic that this man was apparently enough of a believer in the Buddha's teachings to beg for help, yet completely glossed over the first 5 precepts. Then later in Ghatva Sutta, it was explicitly warned against as well, word for word: Having killed what do you sleep in ease? Having killed what do you not grieve? Of the slaying of what one thing does Gotama approve? [The Buddha:] Having killed anger you sleep in ease. Having killed anger you do not grieve. The noble ones praise the slaying of anger - with its honeyed crest & poison root - for having killed it you do not grieve.

That information might be used as psychological evidence of the murderer's guilt haunting him, but an actual decapitated head missing from a grave haunting him? I would check the guy's fridge first.

The year was 1970. On the last time she called, my whole family was in the dining room, and when she asked how I was doing, I told her I was doing fine, and that everyone in the family was present, and also doing fine.

@@Ben-iz9ud That's not how proof or evidence works. That's just an anecdote. If I just "took their word for it" nobody would ever go to jail cause they'd just say they didn't do it. People lie. They exaggerate. They get mistaken. They forget. They get coerced. They get influenced. A person's word is not enough to prove such a massive claim.

Well, depends on religion. I cannot recall the specific one, but in it there is the belief that humans do not become ghosts. Nevertheless, if a person dies with a deep grudge, it can cause an evil, vengeful spirit to remain. So, with that concept, if you are being haunted by a spirit, it is automatically "evil".

Love your vids Mr.Ballen. Thank you for always being there on long work days ❤️

I just want to say R.I.P to this young girl who died so savagely. I find it sad that ppl are so excited to hear a story that every comment is about a cool story and not about the fact a sweet innocent young lady lost her life so horrifically and her poor parents can't even bury her as a whole because this freak won't tell them where her head is. I love Mr Ballen too and his story telling abilities but the lack of sensitivity leaves me shocked at everyone. Her family may be reading these comments because someone has finally told her story and all they are seeing is praise to the story teller. Come on ppl have a little heart here the least you could do is acknowledge the fact someone lost their life for no reason. I just needed to say that. Thank you John for telling her story and maybe warning ppl that staying with cab drivers in these places is not such a good idea.

People feel bad for what happened to the girl doesn’t mean they have to let the world know their feelings every single time they hear a story like this, I’m sorry but your not special because you call those out for not being a “empathetic” as you, no one is downplaying what happened to her at all.

There are 4 oddities about ghosts, and the oddities have to do with... • clocks • calendars • free labor ...and... • preoccupation with human perceptions. □ When the spirit was a living human, then, like most humans, they probably spent their entire life having a hard time keeping track of what time it is, and what day it is. But when a person dies, and exhibits a ghost, then, somehow, their ghost-form _always_ knows precisely what time it is (even though they have to choose a Time Zone as their base of operations) and what day it is. For example, you will often hear about ghosts that only "haunt" on an annual day, and at a particular time. Apparently, when a person dies, and turns into a ghost, their ghost is automatically issued a clock/calendar watch that never needs winding. □ When the spirit was a living human, then, like most humans, they were probably a bit lazy. But when a human dies, and exhibits a ghost form, then, for the next 400 years, the ghost constantly performs hauntings, and does so FOR FREE. 400 years is a lot of unpaid haunting labor! Also, it probably amounts to MORE WORK than anyone ever got out of them while they were still alive. □ As you may have often heard, ghosts sometimes perform attacks upon living humans. Such attacks usually take the form of... □ •bites □ •scratches □ •bruises ...and... □ •hard shoves. But WHY?? Think about it. As a ghost, a ghost is identically a supernatural entity. It would seem more fitting for a supernatural entity to perform SUPER attacks. For example, why do ghosts never spontaneously generate LASER BEAMS? Now _that_ would be a Super Attack, befitting a Supernatural Entity! Instead, ghosts always go for old, standard methods of attack, characteristic of what a Human might choose.

@@Julez60 Please don't get me wrong. I have witnessed lots of paranormal activity. I merely question WHY a supernatural entity (which includes demons, as well as ghosts) always exhibits perceptions and attitudes that seem just like those of a mortal human. Afterall, a supernatural entity is multidimensional. It seems oddly self-limiting for a multidimensional entity to exclusively dwell upon human perceptions and human attitudes.

@donnaroberts4565

Ай бұрын

Ok just for the kicks of joining such an interesting topic here's my thoughts.. Firstly I think if there is an entity or ghost it is stuck somehow between the here & there where it should be. Secondly I don't think there is time as such maybe just a certain light of when they died that they can come through. So if someone died at 11am on a road maybe that is the time of day that they can be seen or herd because that is when the light is right for them to be more present. Thirdly if they are able to harm us in any way it would have to be in our dimension so scratches bruises etc would make sense as they have no physical presence & could only manifest wounds that are in our living dimension. You do make some great points though & it got me thinking... Love 'n' Light :)

Now that's another crazy good story from MrBallen, I've been waiting for him to upload a horror story and he didn't disappoint.
