★ Ghost disease
This topic is so big. In traditional Chinese medicine, this disease is divided into two parts, one is called Zhongyao and the other is called Zhongxie. Ghosts refer to tangible ghosts that harm people, such as vixens and the like. Evil naturally refers to something invisible, such as evil spirits or something like that.
Let’s talk about the demon first. Demons are generally those animals that become spirits. According to folklore, five animals like the "gray-white and yellow willow fox" are more common to become spirits, namely: mice, hedgehogs, weasels, snakes and foxes. Of course, this does not mean that all animals can become spirits. Just like humans can be wise, foolish, virtuous, or dishonest, the same kind of animals can also be smart and well-behaved while some are stupid and clumsy. This is called talent.
It is said that talented animals eat some special herbs by chance, or absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and feel that they feel very good and comfortable, so they try many times and slowly accumulate Taoism. A solid foundation has been laid for becoming an immortal and causing mischief. However, the road is still long and winding. It is said that after a certain level of Taoism, one must first learn how people look and act, then learn how to sing various birds, and only then can they learn how to speak. It seems that it is easier for parrots and mynas to learn human speech, but it is not easy for higher mammals to learn. This makes sense.
Let me add a small note here. I have a colleague who talked about his grandfather’s personal experience. Their family is from old Beijing. They used to live near Xiannongtan. At that time, it was considered a wilderness. The current Taoranting Park was originally a graveyard of poor families. Children who were ignorant often ran there to play. One evening, when his grandfather had finished playing and was walking home, a weasel suddenly appeared in front of him. He was more than two feet tall, wearing a vest and a small straw hat, and holding a small child in his hand. When he saw someone, he wasn't afraid or ran away. He spoke directly to him: Child, child, what do you think I look like? My colleague's grandfather has talked about this kind of thing a lot with the elders, so he is not afraid. He knows that this is a weasel who wants to become a spirit, and he is borrowing words from others. If you tell him that he looks like a little old man, he will become a spirit immediately. He was also very strange and said: You look like a bastard. When the weasel heard this, he said: Oh, what a bad luck, what a bad luck. He didn't want his vest or walking stick anymore, and ran away in a flash.

It is said that these things should be cultivated as immortals first, and humans should be easier to become immortals than animals. Why are there more animals becoming immortals and fewer humans becoming enlightened? Theoretically speaking, the human body is the most precious, and even Buddha’s enlightenment must be manifested in the human world. It's a pity that there are too many things in the world that tempt people, such as gold and silver, beauties and cars, high-ranking officials and generous salaries. There are so many miscellaneous things that there is no time for practice. On the contrary, they are not as good as these spiritual beasts, who are carefree. Hang up, after eating enough and sleeping enough, concentrate on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the essence of the sun and moon. On the contrary, it will be easier to achieve enlightenment.
Once these beasts get into their own business, they may not always harm people.
There are some who come and go without a trace, and like to talk about mysteries and Taoism with distinguished people to improve their character. Just like people make friends with each other, they learn from each other, which is beneficial and harmless.
There is nothing wrong with some possessing people, using their powers to cure diseases and eliminate disasters, and accumulate the blessings of becoming immortals. Some of them are possessed, and they are greedy for some wine, meat and cigarettes in return. As long as they are not harmful to others, there is no need to be harsh. Various supernatural beings, immortals, etc., mostly in this category.
There are also some who specialize in beguiling people with their beauty in order to have sex, and then steal the human body's essence. According to traditional Chinese medicine, human essence is the fundamental energy source that maintains body operations and normal physiological activities. It is difficult to replenish it if it is used less. Once it is used up, people will die. The monster wanted to steal some to help speed up his spiritual practice, but the more he stole, the more addicted he became until he drained people dry. Therefore, this type of monsters often kill people. Even if they are rampant for a while, they will inevitably be punished by gods and thunder in the future.
There are many examples of this type, nothing more than there was a good girl on the roadside, the young man took her home, she was fascinated every night, and then became skinny, then a Taoist priest passed by, blah blah blah and so on. But having said that, the number of things a man can have is also limited. Let alone a temptress, even if he falls head over heels with an ordinary girl every night, he will be skinny in half a year. As a doctor, I guarantee this is true. So this kind of thing should be stopped in moderation.
Next is the evil spirit. As for evil spirits, according to traditional Chinese medicine, they are possessed by ghosts. Patients are prone to auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, hallucinations, and insanity. Western medicine will classify them as mental illness or hysteria. As long as there is no bad fate, methods like Thirteen Needles are easier to treat.
When a person spends his whole life in this world without practicing cultivation, doing any particularly good deeds, or making any serious mistakes, he will go to ghosts after death, wait for the opportunity to mature, and then reincarnate. Those who practice great deeds and do great deeds go directly to heaven to become gods. Those who are extremely evil are directly sent to hell to suffer, and they cannot come out.
Of course, ghosts are also divided into three, six or nine levels. Some are high-level ghosts, the so-called ghosts and immortals, officials from the underworld, city gods and landmen, etc. They are generally those who have some talents and immortal spirits in the human world. If you go there to be an official, you can be considered a low-level god in traditional culture.

There are some who have supernatural powers, such as Fuluan Immortal, Pen Immortal, and unknown gods from small temples. There are also some who cooperate with others, telling fortunes and making practices together. The Maoshan Taoist Sect cooperates closely with some ghosts.
The rest are ordinary ghost people and low-level poor ghosts. Ghost food, money, food and clothing all need to be provided by people. Why do Chinese people attach so much importance to the incense of future generations? They are afraid that no one will burn incense and make offerings to them after death, and they will become a poor ghost in the underworld. As a ghost, they will have to starve and freeze. How pitiful it is.
There is also a special kind of person, that is, those who have very strong resentment before death or those who die before they die. This kind of person will be more vicious and easier to harm others. For example, a certain intersection is prone to car accidents, a certain pond is prone to drowning, etc. Basically, this is the cause.
Ordinary ghosts are as common as flies and mosquitoes, but they have different dimensions and cannot be seen. Normally, everyone is pretty good-natured. Occasionally, some are naughty and play pranks. They just want to get some benefits and get people to burn some incense and paper money. Generally, they won't hurt anyone.
I won't offend others unless they offend me. This principle is universal in both worlds of humans and ghosts. So when it comes to dealing with ghosts, as long as you don't cause offense, it's fine. There's nothing to be afraid of. The worst I can do is die just like you. What's there to be afraid of? Woolen cloth?
From the Han Dynasty to before liberation, China had movies about the Legend of Ghosts and Gods of Tianshi Mansion, located in Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi. This Taoist temple is very interesting. It belongs to a half government agency and is very valued. It is dedicated to helping governments at all levels coordinate the relationship between the human world and the world of ghosts and gods. For example, if something strange happens in a certain place, the local people will write to the Tianshi Mansion, saying that there is a plague in such and such a place. Is it offending some ghosts and gods? The Tianshi will observe it and then tell the reason. , you can build some kind of temple, or do a religious ceremony, it will be fine. After receiving the letter, the officials will follow the instructions of the Heavenly Master. Then the decline period of the severe infectious disease may have arrived, and the plague will slowly be eliminated.
If you are suddenly possessed by a demon, possessed by an evil spirit, or suffer frequent nightmares, immediately find a pair of underwear worn by the patient and put it on the patient's head. Pretending to be a salty superman, the monsters will leave when they get scared and won't dare to come back again, _一||. I made up the last sentence…, you can pretend not to see it.
The principle is: Demons and ghosts like spiritual things to be clean. Dirty things will harm their practice, so put the underwear you have worn on your head. The dirty air will make them avoid and dare not approach. For example, feces, urine, dog blood, etc. However, these things are too disgusting to use in large quantities, and the patient will not feel too dirty when using them. The remaining smell can just make the evil spirits retreat. It is really a good method.
