Siva's Sister, his Fiance & his Motorbike

July 25, 2007
Hoy, nuestro chofer fue al templo Hindú para bendecir su motoneta (un tipo de despojo) ya que tuvo dos accidentes en un mes. Nos invito pero tuve que apurarme por que según el calendario hindú, hoy era el ultimo día en el cual este tipo de despojo se podía hacer. No se cuando se podrá repetir? Lo acompañamos y lo pude sacar todo en video - así que ahí lo tengo para la prosperidad. Si sigo como voy, vamos a tener un documental de la vide sur oriental asiática - tipo National Geographic.

El chofer (Siva) sigue esperando para la novia Senu desidirse si se quiere casar o no ... La novia no se decide... Pero tampoco le dice que no...La mama de Senu lo llama y lo invita a la casa, pero Senu no quiere estar con el, y lo ignora. Yo lo veo muy mal pero Siva sigue con las esperanza.... But, I found out more chisme, ... The reason he feels so indebted to the family is because his sister (you remember the old ugly fat one) lived with Senu's family for 2 years. This is because (I promise this is the truth!) they all believe she is possessed by a Malay Muslim demon. They believe that this possession started when she was 12 and she used to eat Mangos from the Malay Muslim mango tree (everyone knows that the Malay demons live in the Mango trees). Since she was 12 she has gone to see I don't know how many doctors, and then even more Hindu priests. Apparently when she is possessed, she goes to the temple and throws herself on the floor doing the "snake dance" and asking for a Cow's bloody head (mind you, remember that to Hindus the cow is the most sacred animal). Finally, Senu's mother couldn't take it anymore, and they took her to a Malay witchdoctor, who although wasn't able to totally exercise the demon, he was able to "tie it up" enough so that they could find a proposer for her, and marry her off. Only now that she has been married for 6 months, the demon has "become loose" again, and the mother-in-law is threatening to send her back to the parents...the story couldn't get any more interesting if it was in a book.
