  1. great thanx

     

    maybe you can help me on the particular point i'm looking for:

     

    nowadays, burning real money is seen as

    - to bring bad luck

    and/or

    - to be an insult for the defunct

     

    but in ancient time

    - was that tradition using real money?

    - why does it changed?

    - the actual bad reputation of using real money came from what?

     

    and so is there actually some taoist schools or other schools that argue that the use of real money is the true way or a better way?

     

    thanx to all


  2. Very cool Brian. Thanks for sharing. In the book I mentioned to Adam on Taoist Sorcery he advises using real money.

     

    hi, i'm interested to know the history of burning joss paper instead of real money in funeral traditions.

     

    Can you tell me which book are you talking about and other references on that matter.

     

    thanx to all
