Wow, thank you very much for your infos, I read all the wiki page, it was very interesting, yet very disturbing too.

Thai people are really weird... I didn't know they hard such rituals. I wanted to get more infos so I wandered on google but I only found things written in chinese, and google image was full of weird things as well.
Well at least they don't murder anyone, they only use bodies of dead children that died in the womb of their mother, let's say it's something positive in the whole thing...

But from what I read, they use the dead bodies as amulets (they even paint it with gold) to summon spirits, so Seiga probably doen't use "dead fetuses" to attack, but she uses these amulets to tame spirits.

What I don't know is why does she uses thai amulets?
From what I know, Thailand is mostly buddhist, so why a taoist would use these kind of amulets? (Maybe because she doesn't have a moral and doesn't care anyway?)

I would like to have your opinion on these things if you don't mind.


Anyway, I also read all the article about her in Symposium of Post-mysticism, and I'm kinda disappointed and surprised because I naively thought she was a nice and benevolent person.
Actually, hermits are not evil at all, and are often more benevolent and nice than many of the other persons...

I tried to read infos about that but I didn't understand everything about it. Can you or someone else explain me please? I'd like to understand...
From what I know, Seiga is not interested in material things, so why would she steal from people? What would she do with the hoard?

If someone knows the answer, I'd be very interested to discuss about it and learn new infos.

It's nice to find people to have interesting and enriching discussions on this thread, I like that.
