TAOIST SORCERY

Kumantong Power Boosting Ritual (With Taoist Talismans)

Very often, some Kumantong Owners would come to me and complain that their Kumantongs have never help them to Strike The Lottery (4D / TOTO) and what to do to boost up the spiritual power of their Kumantongs. Some Kumantong Owners have dump their Kumantongs aside and have not been praying to the Kumantongs or do offerings to the Kumantongs for a very long time and then ask me how to Re-Activate the Kumantongs.

This is a short article and short video clip on how I spiritually boost my Kumantongs on a yearly basis, before CNY...

Normally, few days before Chinese New Year (CNY), Folk Taoists will do Altar cleaning and also wipe and clean the deity statues.

While I (Kumantong 4D Master a.k.a Taoist Sorcery Master) also pray to Kumantongs, it is my duty to also clean the Kumantongs Altar and wipe them. After that, will follow up with the 'Kumantong Power Boosting RItual'. This is my yearly activity, before CNY.

This cleaning and spiritual boosting process will make Kumantongs very happy and continue to help me and my clients to Strike 4D and Toto more often. Ritual is used with Taoist Talismans combined with Unalome, which is part of Siam-Mao Pai (暹茅派) Talismans.

The Talismans shown on the video are mainly my personal use for Boosting Thai "Buddhist" Amulets & Statues. While circling the burning Talismans on the Kumantong Statues, a combination of both Kumantong and Taoist Sorcery Spells are chanted. (Chanting is not shown on the Video).

Buy 4D / Toto at Your Auspicious Hour during Li-Chun (立春)

Few years ago, one particular Feng-Shui "Master" created the belief of depositing money into bank on Li Chun (立春) for good wealth.

The practice started in Singapore (and the trend caught up in Malaysia) when a chart was made depicting the auspicious hours to deposit money based on your Chinese Zodiac sign.

This resulted in long queues at money deposit machines.

Since it is the auspicious hour of Your timing, You should BUY 4D / TOTO at this time, and then deposit Your Winnings at the later time.

What You can do: Do prayer / ritual to seek 4D Numbers from the Deities (that can give 4D Numbers) - Example: Gods Of Wealth Talisman, or Ghosts (Example：Kumantongs) and then buy 4D / Toto at Your auspicious hour. After collect Your Winnings, then pump back Your money into Your Bank Account.

有某位风水’专家‘提出了在立春将钱存入银行以获得良好财富信念。这种做法是几年前在新加坡开始（趋势也在马来西亚开始流行）。

当时有某某风水’专家‘图表，描绘了根据您的十二生肖星座存钱的吉祥时间。这导致在存款机上排长队。由于这是您的吉祥时刻，您应该去买4D / TOTO而不是存钱。赢了奖金以后，才存入您的银行户口。

您可以这样做：拜拜或做法术从神明（可以提供4D的神）或鬼魂讨4D号码，然后在您的吉祥时间买4D / Toto。拿了奖金以后，才把钱放入您的银行户口。

Miserable state of "Taoist Magic" (more like children hocus-pocus story books) from Western Countries...

Some Westerners who don't know the Chinese Language - can't read, speak, nor write Chinese characters, are blindly copying Taoist Talismans they come across and start publishing "Taoist Talismans" English Magic Books.

Firstly, there are several missing strokes of Chinese characters in the Talismans. Those foreigners and also quite many Oversea Chinese, who cannot read and write Chinese, still think those "Taoist Magic" English Books are legit stuffs.

Secondly, there are several secret chants to be spoken in Chinese Language, be it Mandarin or any Chinese Dialects, when creating and empowering Taoist Talismans. WIthout knowing any Chinese languages, how to empower the useless "Drawings" with missing strokes of Chinese Characters?

Imagine using Taoist Spirit Medium Chants translated in English Language to call upon the Chinese Deities to possess the Taoist Spirit Mediums. The Chinese deities will not come and also will offend the Chinese Deities greatly.

For Western Folks who want to learn Taoist Sorcery or creating Taoist Talismans:

1st- Spend several years to learn a Chinese Language - To be proficient at it - Be able to Read, Speak and Write Chinese. If no time to learn, then let Your children or grand-children to attend Chinese Language Classes, so in future when they grow up, they might has the opportunity to Learn Taoist Magic Skills and other Taoist / Chinese 5 Arts of Metaphysics.

Where to learn Taoist Magic and what Chinese Language to use?

In China, the Pure Orthodox Taoist Religion - Zheng Yi Sect and Quan Zhen Sect use Mandarin.

In Taiwan, Hokkien is used in Taoist Rituals / Sorcery / Spirit Mediums.

In Hong Kong , Cantonese is used in Taoist Rituals / Sorcery.

In Malaysia, Hokkien is popularly used for Taoist Rituals / Sorcery / Spirit Mediums. There are also Teochew, Cantonese, Hakka, Hainanese Language, depending on the Chinese Communities.

In Thailand, Teochew and Hokkien are popularly used for Taoist Rituals / Sorcery / Spirit Mediums.

Important Note: There are Simplified Chinese Characters and Traditional Chinese Characters. Learning China Chinese Mandarin will be read and written in Simplified Chinese Characters but Taoist Talismans should use Traditional Chinese Characters. So, You may have to learn both simplified and traditional Chinese characters.

If You just want to own a FREE Protection Taoist Talisman to keep or use, then You shall get the genuine version at a Chinese Temple with Taoist Spirit Medium Worship, which is created and empowered by a Deity, while in trance of a spirit medium. Not a photo-copy version from a popular Public Temple, that have no Spirit Medium Worship.

Orelse, pay a fee and engage a Genuine Taoist Master or Taoist Sorcery Master, who can read, write and speak Chinese, to create and empower different variety of Taoist Talismans for different purposes for You.

The 'Earth Mother Sutra' (地母经 - Di Mu Jing) - Ancient Chinese Prediction of Earth's Events in a 60 Year Cycle

Many Modern Days Chinese, especially the English Educated ones, and even many Westerners who are into Feng Shui Studies, Bazi & Fortune Telling, have never heard of an Ancient Chinese Yearly Foretelling Book, called 'Di Nu Jing' (地母经) - Earth Mother Scripture /Sutra/ Classic.

In fact, if the whole world were able to gain access to Di Nu Jing (地母经), many people around the world would have been pepared and take precaution for the "millions of death" coming their way in 2020.  By understanding Di Nu Jing (地母经), You will know in another 60 years time, there will be a lot of sudden deaths of humans again.

Many Chinese don't know how to use and read Chinese Almanac (通勝 - Tong Sheng). Even many modern days Chinese (English Educated and even the Highly Chinese Educated) considered  Chinese Almanac (通勝 - Tong Sheng) as mere superstition only read by the lowly educated.

In the 1st page of the Chinese Almanac (通勝 - Tong Sheng), usually will be the Spring Ox diagram (春牛图). It is a pictorial composition of a Spring Ox (春牛 - Chun Niu), the Oxherd (or known as the Spirit of Spring - 芒神) and its agricultural surrounding. 

The pictorial diagram is to inform the farmers of the outcome of the year. Below the Spring Ox diagram (春牛图), there will be the （地母经 - Di Nu Jing） 'Earth Mother Scripture /Sutra/ Classic'. 

In ancient time, Spring Ox diagram (春牛图)  and（地母经 - Di Nu Jing) were the forecast of the weather for the coming year, so that farmers can know how to cultivate to obtain the best harvest. 

In modern days context, such information can be considered as a way to predict the worldly events and economy for the coming year, because the whole world now is globally interconnected, whereby countries are doing business with one another. If one country's economy (especially China) is affected, it will affect other countries as well.

(地母经 - Di Nu Jing） - 'Earth Mother Scripture' is short form for (黄帝.地母经 - Huang Di.Di Mu Jing) - Yellow Emperor's Earth Mother Scripture.

Di Nu Jing (地母经)  predicts the growth and harvest of crops every year, according to the order of 60 Jia-Zi (六十甲子) of Tai Sui- Gan Zhi （太岁.干支）. It also fortells the country's events that are going to happen on that year. 

*The 60 Years Cycle (六十干支) is also named the sexagenary cycle or the stem-branch cycle. It is based on the combinations of a cycle of ten heavenly stems and twelve earthly branches. Each year is named by a pair of one stem and one branch.* - Read More at: The very basic fundamentals of Chinese 5 Arts / Metaphysics - What You must know

Taking 2 examples of predictions - Year 2020 and 2021：

太岁庚子年，人民多暴卒。
春夏水淹流，秋冬频饥渴。
高田犹及半，晚稻无可割。
秦淮足流荡，吴楚多劫夺。
桑叶须后贱，蚕娘情不悦。
见蚕不见丝，徒劳用心切。
卜曰︰
鼠耗出头年，高低多偏颇。
更看三冬里，山头起墓田。

From the Original text of （地母经 - Di Nu Jing） on 2020 - Geng Zi Year (庚子年),  on the very 1st sentence, it immediately stated "太岁庚子年，人民多暴卒"- "In the Year of Geng Zi (庚子), many people will die from sudden death". During 2020 , Covid-19 Pandemic have caused millions of death around the globe.

Looking Back: The big events that happened in Geng Zi Year (庚子年) in China history: 

The First Opium War (1840)
The Invasion of the Eight-Nation Army (1900)
The start of Great Chinese Femine (1960)

Few more days (from the time of posting this article) will be Year 2021. So what does Di Nu Jing (地母经) said about 2021 - Xin Chou Year (辛丑年) ? 

太岁辛丑年，疾病稍纷纷。
吴越桑麻好，荆楚米麦臻。
春夏均甘雨，秋冬得十分。
桑叶树头秀，蚕姑自欢欣。
人民渐苏息，六畜瘴逡巡。
卜曰
辛丑牛为首，高低甚可怜。
人民留一半，快活好桑田。

Translation:

In the Xin Chou Year, a little disease.
The good mulberries of Wu and Yue, The best rice and wheat of Jing and Chu.
It is rainy in spring and summer, and very much in autumn and winter.
The mulberry leaves show, and the silkworms rejoice.
The people gradually took a breather, and the six animals languished.

Bu Yue (卜曰) - Divination
Headed by the Xin Chou Cow, highs and lows are pitiful.
Remaining are half of the population, happy mulberry fields.

Meaning: At the beginning of 2021,  Many people had died, those who survived were finally able to take a breather. Agriculture in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River will improve. Rain and water will be sufficient in spring and summer, and crops will grow well. Although condition for human beings can be eased, domestic animals (horse, cattle, breeding, chickens, dogs, pigs) may have a major wave of elimination, and epidemics will be endemic among domestic animals. Many animals will die.

From the above 2 examples, You can understand why such information will benefit You to take personal precaution and preparation.

Interesting Point to take note: Di Nu Jing (地母经) contains 60 poems. Each specific poem explains the environmental and agricultural condition  in China (and affecting the world)  of that corresponding Year, in a 60-Year Cycle (60 Jia-Zi  - 六十甲子).  What is happening now in China (and the world), is going to happen the same way again in 60 years time.  By getting hold of  'Di Nu Jing (地母经)', You can predict on a yearly basis,  the upcoming world issues related to environment and food, and take precautionary measure for own survival.

Short Note by Taoist Sorcery Master (a.k.a Kumantong 4D Master) :

1) Until now, there is still no English translation of 'Earth Mother Sutra' (地母经 - Di Mu Jing).

2) Many Westerners don't know that such a 'Yearly environmental / agricultural fortelling book (or Texts) of a 60 Year Cycle of Ancient Chinese' exist.

3) If the whole world were able to access to the information stated in 'Di Nu Jing (地母经), people in China (and around the world) would be on guard for the upcoming global environmental (and food) issue that are going to affect them.

4) The Chinese folks (both English Edudated and Chinese Educated) who have been 'looking down' upon their own source of Chinese Metaphysical Knowledge (中华玄学) of their own Chinese Ancestors, should do self-reflection. The Westerners are hoping to gain access to the wisdom of Ancient Chinese Texts but they can't because, many of such writings are not translated into English.. and then too many Chinese Folks themselves think lowly of their own Ancient Chinese Culture and Written Texts of Wisdom.

The 5 Thunder Marshals In Taoism & Other Thunder Gods

* This article is a follow up Article of: The Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 - Lei Zu) & Ministy Of Thunder and Thunder Departments Of Taoist Religion

The 5 Thunder Marshals of the Thunder Agency

The Five Thunder Marshals of the Thunder Agency (雷部五元帥 Lei Bu Wu Yuan Shuai) refer to the five supreme commanders of the Thunder Agency (雷部 Lei Bu), under the administration of The Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 Lei Zu) - 'Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates With the Origin of the Nine Heavens' (九天應元雷聲普化天尊 Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun).

In Religious Taoism & Chinese Folk Religion records, there are several different groups of Thunder Deities in the Thunder Agency, eg: such as 5 Thunder Marshals (五雷元帅), 24 Heavenly Thunder Monarchs (廿四位天君) and 36 Heavenly Thunder Generals (三十六位神将). The most commonly seen 5 Thunder Marshals worshipped in Taoist Temples - Deng(邓), Bi(毕), Liu(刘), Xin(辛), Pang(庞).

Chief Thunder Marshal Deng - Deng Yuan Shuai (鄧元帥)

Marshal Deng (邓元帅). His given name is Zhong (忠). He is the leader of 5 Thunder Marshals. It is said that he has "silver teeth & bright eyes", and "is surrounded by fire".

In the book 'Supplementary Records of the Listener' (夷堅志補 Yi Jian Zhi Bu), he is recorded as "General Deng of Heavenly Origin who Interrogates and Summons Demons ( 天元考召鄧將軍 Tian Yuan Kao Zhao Deng Jiang Jun) ".

In the book 'The Remaining Stories about Cauldron-Casting' (鑄鼎餘聞 Zhu Ding Yu Wen) quotes the Personal Records of the District of Changshu ( 常熟私志 Chang Shu Si Zhi), calling him "Supreme Commander Deng, Great Spirit in Charge of Laws and Decrees ( 律令大神鄧元帥 Lü Ling Da Shen Deng Yuan Shuai)", which indicates that he is in charge of laws and decrees, and of the interrogation and summoning of the Thunder Agency.

*雷部诸元帅中，以邓元帅为首。邓元帅，名忠，传称其“银牙耀目”、“火焰绕身”。《夷坚志补》称“天元考召邓将军”。《铸鼎馀闻》引明《常熟私志》称“律令大神邓元帅”，当系职掌雷部律令考召之意。*

The Thunder Spirit Bi - Bi Yuan Shuai (毕元帅)

Supreme Commander Bi was formerly called Tian Hua (田华).

According to 'The Comprehensive Collection of Investigations into the Divinities of the Three Doctrines since their Origin' ( 三教源流搜神大全 San Jiao Yuan Liu Sou Shen Da Quan), Tian Hua was originally a Thunder Spirit ( 雷精 Lei Jing), who was concealed underground and reincarnated in the fields, and after being nourished by the breath of stalactites for 1,000 years, he was given his birth.

At the moment he was born, there was a bolt from the blue in the day time, the flame lit up the sky, a sudden gale struck and a heavy shower suddenly fell. Surrounded by large serpents, he was fed by bees.

Getting older, he was given the name Tian（田）(field) for he was born in the fields, and the name Bi （毕）, for the characters Bi and Hua are alike.

He Cultivated and Refined ( 修煉 Xiulian ) himself under the Lulu Cliff （漉泸岩）. When Nu-Wa （女娲） failed to patch the holes in the sky, Supreme Commander Bi assisted the Spirits of Fire and Water ( 水火之精), and shouted between heaven and earth so as to block the holes in the sky.

Later, he refined the battle formation of fire and wind and thunder of five colors, helped the Yellow Emperor ( 黃帝 Huang di ) kill Chi You （蚩尤）, and then being worshipped as the master of dragons.

The Jade Emperor appointed him Supreme Commander Bi of the Thunder Agency, ordered him to be in charge of the twelve Thunder Courts ( 雷庭 Lei Ting ) and to assist the Highest Emperor of the Mysterious Heaven ( 玄天上帝 Xuan Tian Shang Di ) in killing the gods of plague and using spirits.

He controlled the dryness and wetness of Heaven and Earth, checked the activities of demons, and strike those who were not benevolent or upright.

*毕元帅，原名田华。据《三教源流搜神大全》，田华原系雷精，藏地中，寄胎于田间，得千年石钟乳气而生。出生时，白昼晴空霹雳，火光照天，风雨骤至。大蛇围其外，群蜂以哺。及长，因田为田，指华为毕，修炼于漉泸岩下。女娲补天不成，毕元帅助水火之精，声吼天地，乃塞天漏。又炼五色火雹风雷阵，助黄帝击死蚩尤，被拜为龙师。玉帝封以雷门毕元帅之职，敕掌十二雷庭，助玄天上帝诛瘟役鬼，上管天地潦涸，下纠群魅出没，中击不仁不义等等*

Thunder Marshal Liu in charge of affairs - Liu Yuan Shuai (刘元帅) - (刘天君)

Heavenly sovereign Liu (刘天君) had the given name Hou (后） and lived in the Jin dynasty.

He was born in a fishing boat on the Minjiang River, and did not drown when falling into the middle of the river during his childhood.

Due to poverty, he was sent to be the page boy of Perfect Man Luo. Since he had a good command of the gestures of the Five Thunders, he was able to summon wind and rain, and responded immediately after being asked, and benefited the people and the country.

One year, when the eastern capital suffered severe droughts, the emperor prayed in the Shrine of Heavenly Sovereign Liu, and a heavy rain fell as expected. That autumn had a good harvest.

The emperor named him the Perfect Sovereign of Creation and Benevolence ( 立化慈濟真君 Li Hua Ci ji Zhen Jun), and the Jade Emperor ( 玉皇大帝 Yu Huang Da Di ) ordered him to be in charge of various kinds of affairs of the prince palace of the Thunder Agency.

*刘天君，名后，东晋时人。生于岷江渔渡中，幼时落波心而不死。因贫，送于罗真人为侍读，因精于五雷掌诀，能招风捉雨，随叩即应，济民助国。是年东京大旱，皇帝祷于刘天君祠，果有大雨。时秋大稔。皇帝敕命其为“立化慈济真君”。玉皇大帝亦命刘天君职掌雷部王府的各种事务.*

Thunder Marshal Xin of the Thunder Fast (雷斋辛元帅)

Xin was formerly named Xin Xing (辛兴) and styled Zhen Yu (震宇), who was a native of Yong Zhou (雍州).

According to 'The Comprehensive Collection of Investigations into the Divinities of the Three Doctrines since their Origin 《三教源流搜神大全》, there was a Mountain of Divine Thunder ( 神雷山 Shen Lei Shan ) in the area of Yong Zhou (雍州). Xin Xing's mother was scared to death by the thunderbolt on the Mountain of Divine Thunder, and Xin Xing held his mother's corpse, weeping.

Moved by his extreme filial piety, the Thunder Spirit transformed into a Daoist priest and offered his apology, and presented to him twelve fire elixirs for him to eat. Then Xin changed his form, his head changed into that of a monster, his mouth into a beak, his shoulders into wings, with a dagger in his left hand and a mallet in the right and five drugs under his feet.

The Jade Emperor appointed him Supreme Commander, who, together with the Supreme Commander Bi, "was responsible for affairs in the five directions, travelling back and forth in the heavens, and eliminating the evil demons and ghosts in the nether world and this world".

25th day of the sixth lunar month is the divine manifestation day of Supreme Commander Xin. On that day, the Daoist priests worshiping the Thunder Sprits will abstain from eating meat. This is known as the "Thunder Fast" ( 雷齋 Leizhai ), in order to pray for the blessings of gods.

*辛元帅，原名辛兴，字震宇，雍州人。据《三教源流搜神大全》，雍州地界有神雷山。辛兴之母即为神雷山霹雳破胆而死。辛兴抱母尸而哭。雷神感其至孝，变化为道士而谢罪，并赠辛兴十二火丹以啖之。辛遂易形，妖其头，喙其嘴，翼其两肩，左执尖，右持槌，脚踏五鼓。玉皇大帝封其为元帅，与毕元帅“共五方事，往来行天，翦幽冥中邪魔鬼恶”。传说六月廿五日为辛元帅神诞之日，奉祀雷神的道教徒于是日茹素，称为“雷斋”，以祈神佑*

Thunder Marshal Pang with a Golden Sword (金刀庞元帅)

Supreme Commander Pang was formerly named Pang Qiao (庞乔) and styled Chang Qing (长清).

According to the Comprehensive Collection of Investigations into the Divinities of the Three Doctrines since their Origin, he was born in a poor family who had been ferrymen for generations. Yet Pang Qiao was kind in heart and actions.

He was never impartial to those who traveled by ferry and helped people in emergency and difficulty. Hearing of his extreme filial piety and absolute sincerity, the Jade Emperor appointed him Supreme Commander of the Vital Breath of Chaos.

With a golden sword in hand, he was devoted to his duty of guarding the gate of heaven, in order to vanquish the demons in the nether world and exterminate the old evils, and never failed.

*庞元帅，原名庞乔，字长清。据《三教源流搜神大全》，庞乔家境贫困，世为驾渡之工。但庞乔心行善良，对往来渡客无不平等，救人急难。玉皇大帝闻其至孝至诚，敕为混气元帅，手执金刀，唯天门之出入是命，以降阴魔，除旧恶，秋毫不爽*

Worshipping of Thunder Marshals

The Hall of Heavenly Generals ( 天將殿堂 Tian Jiang Dian Tang ) is always founded in some large Daoist temples to enshrine the Thunder Marshals of the Thunder Agency or some other heavenly generals.

The titles and number of thunder marshals being worshiped may vary from place to place, due to the differences in the local cultural and historical background of the Daoists in different places.

But it is common to take the Thunder Marshals of the Thunder Agency as the guadian dieties (护法神).

*一些大道观常有设天将殿堂，供奉雷部元帅或其他天将。其中由于各地道教徒的地方文化历史背景的差异，因此供奉元帅之名号以及数量可能有所不同。但是以雷部元帅作为护法神灵，救难神灵祈求确是一致的*

There are also other groups of 5 Thunder Gods / Deities:

1) In certain Folk Taoist (Chinese Folks Religion) Temples, they pray to 都天大五雷师公 (Du Tian Da Wu Lei Shi Gong) - 'The Great Five Thunder Deities Of Capital Heaven'. These are the 5 Thunder Gods:

雷正(雷震子) Lei Zheng
雷沈 (Lei Chen)
雷勝 (Lei Sheng)
雷进 (Lei Jing)
雷真 (Lei Zhen)

Important Point: Notice they are called 都天大五雷师公 (Du Tian Da Wu Lei Shi Gong) and not 雷部五元帥 (Lei Bu Wu Yuan Shuai) because they are different groups of 5 Thunder Deities.

2) In certain Taoist Magical / Sorcery Sects, there is a group of '5 Savage Thunder Messengers' (五方蛮雷使者) that the Taoist Masters seek for spiritual assistance. They are:

东方蛮雷使者马郁林 - Ma Yu Lin from the East
南方蛮雷使者郭元京 - Guo Yuan Jing from the South
西方蛮雷使者方仲高 - Fang Zhong Gao from the West
北方蛮雷使者邓拱辰 - Deng Gong Chen from the North
中央蛮雷使者田元宗 - Tian Yuan Zong from the Central

The Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 - Lei Zu) & Ministy Of Thunder and Thunder Departments Of Taoist Religion

"I only find out information about 1 thunder god called "Lei Gong" (雷公). Why are there 5 thunder gods instead of 1? And who are the 5 thunder gods?"

Questions like these are not able to be answered in 1 short reply. It took me quite sometime to think through whether I should write a topic solely on Taoist Thunder Gods Series，because it is very long topic of dicussion.

1st - Nowadays folks who are seeking for Taoist Sorcery Help are more concern about immediate help from taoist talismans or rituals, and have no interest to understand about the heavenly structure of Taoist Gods. Folks like these have no interest to get too deep into understanding Taoist Gods.

2nd - There is too little information on Pure Religious Taoism and Folk Taoism, written in English. Folks from Western Countries and also the English Educated Chinese, who wish to know more and understand deeper into Taoist Gods / Deities can't get much infomation online. Therefore, if I don't spend the time to write and share, many folks interested in Religious Taoism can't get the much needed information.

3rd - Worst case - some western folks who are Taoist-Master-Wannabes, without full knowledge of Taoist Deities nor the proper Spiritual / Magical Training, not even able to read and write Chinese Characters and not even know the secret chants, hand seals and full ritual to create and empower the talismans, are trying to copy blindly on the Taoist Talismans they happen to see online.

-----------------------------------

Since someone asked about Thunder Gods, I shall share as much details as possible for Your understanding of the Taoist Thunder Gods. Read only if You are interested.

Many ordinally Chinese Folks, and some Western Folks who are interested in Taoist Magic, would have only heard about 五雷 (Wu Lei) - Five Thunders, or have seen some different types of "Five Thunder Talismans" (五雷符). Many folks don't know who are the Five Thunder Gods.

*The Taoist Thunder Series written here are just brief introduction to the Structure of different groups and departments of Taoist Thunder Gods. To fully understand the full details about Taoist Thunder Topics, You have to read up several Taoist Thunder Related Scriptures , such as 《無上九霄玉清大梵紫微玄都雷庭玉經》 (Wu Shang Jiu Xiao Yu Qing Da Fan Zi Wei Xuan Du Lei Ting Yu Jing).

Even before getting to know who are the 5 thunder gods, lets start from the highest top ranking - The Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 - Lei Zu) in Pure (Orthodox) Taoist Religion.

The Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 Lei Zu) is also called:

1) 九天應元雷聲普化天尊（Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun) - The 'Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates from the Origin of the Nine Heavens'

2) 九天應元雷聲普化真王（Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Zhen Wang) - The 'Perfect King of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates with the Origin of the Nine Heavens' .

According to Taoist Scripture - ( 《無上九霄玉清大梵紫微玄都雷庭玉經》 Wu Shang Jiu Xiao Yu Qing Da Fan Zi Wei Xuan Du Lei Ting Yu Jing): Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 Lei Zu) is the avatar of the NINTH SON of 'Fu Li Primeval Lord of Heaven' (浮黎元始天尊 - Fu Li Yuan Shi Tian Zun), known as The Perfect King of Jade Clarity - Yu Qing Zhen Wang (玉清真王).

The Thunder Patriarch lives in the 'Jade Mansion of Divine Heaven' (神霄玉府 - Shen Xiao Yu Fu), in the midst of the Pure Vital Breath of the Azure Heaven ( 碧霄梵氣 Bi Xiao Fan Qi), 2300 miles from the Thunder City (雷城 - Lei Cheng). The '81 Zhang' high Thunder City is the place where the Heavenly Court administers thunders, to the left of which is the Jade Pivot Five Thunder Agency (玉樞五雷使 Yu Shu Wu Lei Shi) and to the right of which is the Jade Mansion Five Thunder Agency (玉府五雷使 - Yu Fu Wu Lei Shi). *雷祖居于神霄玉府，在碧霄梵气之中，去雷城有二千三百里。雷城是天庭行雷之所，高八十一丈，左有玉枢五雷使院，右有玉府五雷使院*

In front of the Heavenly Lord, there are thirty-six thunder drums, in charge by thirty-six thunder spirits. When it is time for thunders, the Thunder Patriarch beats the drum once; and Grandpa Thunder ( 雷公 Lei Gong ) and the Master of Thunder ( 雷師 Lei Shi) throw out thunder bolts. The thirty-six spirits of the Thunder Agency are all meritorious ministers of the time. *天尊前有雷鼓三十六面，由三十六神司之。行雷之时，雷祖击鼓一下，即时雷公雷师兴发雷声。雷部有神三十六名，皆当时辅相有功之臣*

Base on 'The investiture of the gods' ( 封神演義 Feng Shen Yan Yi ), a fiction of the Ming Dynasty:

Wen Zhong (闻仲) is the 'Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates with the Origin of the Nine Heavens", who leads 24 Law-Protecting Heavenly Sovereigns Who Bring Wind and Rain (催雲助雨護法天君 Cui Yun ZhuYu Hu Fa Tian Jun).

*明代小说《封神演义》则称闻仲为九天应元雷声普化天尊，其率领之雷部催云助雨护法天君共有二十四名*

Among the 24 of them, there is Deng Zhong （鄧元帥，名忠） - the Great Spirit of Statutes and Ordinances (律令大神 Lu ling Da Shen), who is often worshipped in Folk Taoist temples.

Functions of Thunder Agency:

Since ancient times in China, Grandpa Thunder (雷公) / Thunder Deity (雷神) had already been worshipped.

But it was at the end of the Northern Song that the Thunder Agency (雷部 Lei Bu), in the charge of the 'Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates with the Origin of the Nine Heavens' (九天应元雷声普化天尊), was incorporated into the Daoist divinity system.

In the Northern Song period, Daoist sects such as the Divine Heaven Tradition ( 神霄派 Shen Xiao Pai) and the Pristine Subtlety Tradition ( 清微派 Qing Wei Pai), emphasized Thunder Skills ( 雷法 Lei Fa).

Thus, the functions of thunder expanded from providing rain to announcing fortune or misfortune, and even to conferring life or death after the inspection and evaluation of people.

The Jade Pivot Precious Book of the Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates with the Origin of the Nine Heavens ( 《九天應元雷聲普化天尊玉樞寶經》 Jiu Tian Ying Yuan Lei Sheng Pu Hua Tian Zun Yu Shu Bao Jing) stated that "Those who are Disloyal to the emperor, infilial to parents, disrespect to teachers" will be killed by the Five Thunders Inspection and Execution Agency. The impious are killed first in the spirit and then in the body, and even beaten into pieces by thunder bolts.

Worshipping of Thunder Deities in Temples:

According to the 'Records of Rites" in the History of the Ming Dynasty ( 明史 Ming Shi), 'the Heavenly Lord of Universal Transformation Whose Voice of Thunder Resonates with the Origin of the Nine Heavens' is in charge of the Five Thunders Marshals.

The 24th day of the sixth lunar month is considered by Daoists as the day of his manifestation. On this day every year, Taoist temples that worship the Thunder Patriarch (雷祖 - Lei Zu) will have Taoist Priests and Taoist Followers doing prayer and burn incense in temples to pray for gook luck.

Interesting Point to take note: Lei Zu (雷祖) has a 3rd eye. The third eye can see all things in the world, in charge of yin and yang, good and evil, thunder agency, five elements, descendants, etc.

Important point to take note: Thunder Rituals and Thunder Talismans are sometime used in extreme exorcism - To destroy the evil spirits and demons from a person or place.

Being Practical With Taoist Sorcery - By Winning 4D / Lottery Frequently

(Ultimate 5 Ghosts Multi-Purpose Talisman)

Many Westerners only read about Taoist Philosophy but never heard of Taoist Sorcery. Some folks may have heard about Taoist Sorcery and almost none of them actually seen Taoist Sorcery / Magick Performances (法术) in real life. The closest resemblance of Taoist Sorcery is through Hong Kong Ghosts Movies by Late Hong Kong Actor Lam Ching Ying.

While those folks who believe in Taoist Magic, can only imagine about the magical power of Taoist Spells, You can actually experience it personally through Winning The Lottery frequently with Taoist Sorcery.

In fact, Winning the Lottery with Taoist Sorcery is one of the most practical form of applying Taoist Sorcery to every day life. Even many Chinese Folks don't know about it.

One sad fact with modern days English Educated Chinese adults, especially in Singapore, is that many of them are too "highly educated" until they don't believe in anything spiritual, or don't even know that Taoist Sorcery exist. If they ever come across such spiritual practice, they immediately condemn it as bullshit.

Another problem with modern days English Educated Chinese adults is many of them have turn to Christianity, which further hinder themselves from experiencing the Occult Path, be it Winning The Lottery through Taoist Sorcery.

Come To Know Taoist Sorcery only when they face financial problems..

Often time, it is only when some 'fated' people who are facing financial problems, then they start to search high and low for spiritual help, which only then, get to know about Taoist Sorcery.

However, there are far too many people who don't even have the same opportunity - Because they ownself make ownself unlucky, by not believing in such "thing", or never know that such "thing" exist and that is.. Winning 4D / Lottery With Taoist Sorcery.

This article is written for several reasons:

1) To show how anyone can seek Lottery Numbers from the deities or ghosts to Strike 4D / Lottery by themselves.

2) To reach out to as many people as possible, hoping that they are able to apply the same method to Strike 4D / Lottery by themselves to rescue themselves from financial problems.

WHY STRIKE THE LOTTERY?

Clear Debt - Strike 4D / Lottery is one of the fastest way to pay off debt
Get away from a miserable Job - Folks who strike Lottery big time (Win a lot of money), can quit their miserable job, rest their mind and spend the time to seek a better job, or seek out own passion (Example: Start a Business).
Start own business - Some Chinese Towkays (Boss / Business Owners) actually seek help from a Taoist Sorcery Master or Deity (while in trance of spirit medium) to WIN THE LOTTERY, before they have a huge capital to start their own business / company, in order to become a Towkay.
Investment - Have spare cash to start investment, such as Stock & Shares, Properties etc.
Folks who wish to have a lump sum of money to go for holiday / tour, buy high ticket items etc.

What is the Method To Strike 4D Lottery?

In fact, the method is so simple to Strike The Lottery, until it seems unbelievable. That is...

*Light Up Joss Sticks / Aroma Cones, pray to the Wealth Deities (in the Wealth Related Talisman) and ask for 1st Prize Numbers and 'Shake a Cup' (of Numbers 0 to 9). Yes! It is that simple!*

By applying the same method listed here, as simple as "Shaking A Cup (Of Numbers)", You will bound to Strike Lottery on TOP 3 Prizes as frquently as possible.

The wealth talisman shown on the image is "Gods Of Wealth Of All Direction" Talisman . You may also use other wealth related talismans, such as:

To order any spiritual items stated above, You need to pay a fee to have it created and empowered and is NOT cheap.

*Irony Of Life - Folks who are doing well financially and can afford the fee charge, don't believe in such "nonsense". Folks who are desperate for money and can't afford the fee, are the ones who will die to believe in the super natural, in the hope to clear their financial woes. *

Important Note: Don't wait until You are desperate for money, then You believe in gods and ghosts.

Some folks may not be able to afford the talismans, or just simply not interested to pay for any service, can check out FREE Methods:

Alternative FREE methods (In Singapore & Malaysia) :

1) Go to a Chinese Temple that provides Spirit Medium Consultation Service. Consult a deity (while in-trance of a spirit medium).

2) Visit a temporary Make-Shift Chinese Temple, while the folks are celebrating certain Chinese Deity Festival. Usually there is Potential 4D Numbers given by a deity, being displayed on the altar.

3) Follow the Spirit Medium Troupe of Dua Di Ya Peh to the cemetery during Chinese Hungry Ghost Festival. Sometime Dua Di Ya Peh might provide potential Winning 4D Numbers.

Important Note: The above alternatives are just occasional help. In order to have non-stop / continious support from spirit entities, that is to own a Lottery Prediction Talisman or a spiritual item (keep a Kumantong or ghost) and do prayer by yourself to seek own Lottery Numbers.
