LIFE - Mind Of A Mankind - Chapter Three
SALMAH'S FOLLOWERS
My Mother, Father and Siblings cried
when I went away.
I have made myself
in and out of their minds millions of times.
I saw everything I need to know about them
and I saw many things I need to know
about being a sister or a brother.
My name could be anyone of my family members.
I shared my life with them
and I shared my tears with them.
This is the reason I wrote my words for them to read
for my family of Mahmood and Salmah.
My dearest brothers and sisters,
the day I went away
I saw my mother and father and siblings crying for me.
You know I felt very sad on that day
and I cried too
because all of you were crying for me.
My mother now is with me
and I love her very much.
Joe is only writing this for me
to reach to all of you.
I will not lie to you my family
because I went away
with all of your love within my heart.
Thank you for your love for me
and I love all of you very much.

From My Sister
I have written about my mother before I write about her followers of 'Djinns' or Spirit People from the unseen world and she was able to perform the spiritual healing partly because of them. My father told me that the first time that he had encountered with the Spirits of my mother's was during on their wedding night. I do not know the details so much maybe because my father felt embarrassed to tell me about it. He told me that night my mother had suddenly became like someone else. The Spirits told my father not to make my mother sad and not to make her feel as though she was not a good wife to him too. Then they went out of my mother's body and my father was so afraid of them after that incident. I saw them when I was a toddler and they kept coming to meet us until we shifted to our new flat. The last time I saw one entity within my mother's mind and body was in 1987 before I got married to my first wife, Noorasmah. In the past before they came to meet my father and us children, my mother would become unconscious and they would go into my mother's unconscious body adn then woke up from the reposed position. They would sit in a crossed leg position, gave my father the Islamic way of greeting and my father would acknowledge to them likewise.
Their characters and behaviours were not like my mother though the physical body was. They never opened their eyes and sometimes when my father asked thme to look at the television screen, they seemed to be able to see the programmes on with their eyes closed but yet they could actually see it. They spoke to my father in the manner of those olden days Malay language, which my father could understand and sometimes he could not understand. While conversing with my father, they would use their hands to gesture to make their words more comprehensive. They would usually advised my father to becaome a good man and husband. They would advise my father to pray and remember Allah always. They would tell my father about my mother's feelings or worries or health conditions and my father would enquire them whether my mother was angry with him or happy with his behaviours and attitudes. My father would in return explained to them why he behaved such and such manner towards my mother or why he was angry with her. They would then advise my father to be patience and they would advise my mother too about her behaviours and attitudes too.
When there were visitors to meet my mother and the Spirit People for spiritual healing treatments, they would come to meet the visitors. My father would become the assistant to them because many of the visitors could not understand their language. My father would in return relate their messages to the visitors. They used limes, flowers, incense and a bowl of water and looked at to relate the illness of the visitors. My father would burn some incense onto the burning charcoals in a small clay cup. Then they would mumble some holy verses and they would slice the limes bits by bits into the bowl of water and gazed on it. Then they would tell the visitors about the illness that they came for the treatments and most of the visitors believed them because they were told about something that my mother or my father did not know about until the visitors themselves heard it from them. They would advise the visitors the things that the visitors needed to do and after they had advised the visitors, they would put in flowers into the bowl of water that already contained the sliced limes. The water were then given to the visitors for bathing or for washing the face of that particular ill individuals. Usually the visitors would bring along with them a bottle to be filled up with the holy water from another bowl that the 'Djinn' had mantra over with the holy verses. The water were meant to be consumed by the particular sick individual. The Spirit would leave my mother's body after the procedures and prescriptions were given to the visitors. After a few minutes, my mother would then be conscious again and she would reiterate some informations about the methods of the spiritual healing the the Spirit had advised to the visitors. Somehow another, the Spirits spoke to my mother while she was unconscious. The visitors would then insisted on giving some cash to my mother or father as a token of their appreciation but usually my parents would reject the offer, but sometimes the visitors really persisted further on their cash offering and my parents would relent to their kindness. Sometimes they brought food stuffs for my parents. The visitors were mainly Malays and Chinese. My parents would usually remind them not to tell others about the spiritual healing that my mother had rendered to them.
There were seven different Spirit entities that possessed my mother's body. They were brothers and sisters. There were four brothers and three sisters. They told my father that they lived in the sea. They prayed, meditated (Zikir) and praised Allah when they returned to their own world. They were Shah (male), Iskandar (male), Shahadan (male), Siti Aishah (female), Siti Fatimah (female), Siti Aminah (female) and Bisu or Busu (male). These were the entities from the unseen world that came to meet my father and us children. Each of these entities had different personalities and most of them came to talk to my father and us children when my mother wanted to treat spiritual healings to the visitors but sometimes when my mother was in sorrow or in ill health, they would come. My mother seemed to be able to call them at her own will when she had visitors for the spiritual healing sessions but usually when she was sad or in ill health, they would come with or without her own free will.
They were already present with my mother before my birth. I could only relate five of them because I have seen them took possession of my mother's body but it was quite vague for me to remember their names and personalities because it was a long time ago. I actually had to check with my second elder brother and my father and they too could not really remember clearly or exactly identified the two entities. As I have written earlier on in the previous chapter, the last time I saw one of the entity was back in 1987 before I was married to my first wife Noorasmah. Bisu or Busu came because Noorasmah was possessed by an evil entity that was frightening and disturbing her, her family, my family and I. Shah was the eldest among the rest of the Spirit entities and Bisu or Busu was the youngest among them. I have written their names according to their ranks within their own family in their Spirit's world. The puzzling thing was that they had never mentioned anything to us about their own parents in the Spirit's world. I wonder why? They were seven siblings and it was so coincidence that we too were seven siblings. When Shah camt to meet my father, he ws the most fierce and serious entity. He would talk to my father seriously and proposed to him some of the ways my father could behave towards his wife. He loved to drink black coffee. Iskandar was an entity that was gentle and never scolded my father unlike Shah who would actually scold my father when he did something wrong. Iskandar loved to smoke cigarettes and my father usually would provide him that item when he requested for it. Shahadan, I have no knowledge of his characters. Siti Aishah would always sing Malay folk songs like the ways of the Malays in the olden days. The songs were like poetry form and it rhymes or 'Syair' in Malay language. Siti Fatimah would always cry whenever she camt ot meet my father and my father usually had to comfort her or consoled her not to be sad. She never told my father why she was always in sorrow and each time my father questioned her about it, she would cry even harder. She loved to have perfumes applied to her hands and sensed the fragrance. She would be quiet after that and she would leave my mother's body quietly. Siti Aminah, I have no knowledge of her characters. Bisu or Busu was the most frequent entity that would come to meet us. He was the youngest and his name 'Busu' itself means the youngest in Malay. We called him Bisu too because he was also mute. Whenever the Spirits came to meet us, the male entities would always request for the Malay black headdress or 'Songkok' for them to wear on their head whereas the female entities would request for the Malay scarf or 'Selengdang' for them to cover their head with it.
I could relate to you more about Busu characters compared to the rest of them because Busu was one of the prominent entity for my father and us children. We remembered him so well mainly because he often came to meet us and he was the funniest and most mischievous Spirit among his Spirit siblings. The other male entities joked too but unlike Busu. When Busu came he would ask for raw chicken eggs and the eggs must be placed in a saucer or else he would whine like a child and all of us would be anxious. He was also ill mannered and after he had consumed the raw chicken eggs from the saucer, he would throw down the saucer roughly and my father always had to stop him from doing so. he loved to converse with us with his funny face expressions liked a clown, gesturing with his hands and his body. He loved to tell incidences about what he saw or did and normally he would inform to my father about us children behaviours when my father was not at home. He mentioned that he loved to follow us children wherever we went and he would sit on our shoulders without our knowledge. He was liked a spy for my mother and my father. He loved to joke with us and he never frightened us away but sometimes he scolded some of us for being naughty. All of us loved him so much because of his funny behaviours and his jokes. When he laughed his mouth was wide opened with his teeth bared and all of us would actually laughed together with him.
Once, we asked him to describe to us his appearance. He told us that he had a big head with black hair and there were many lice in it. He had a small body and when he walked, his head would swing side to side. That was his descriptions of himself to us.
Sometimes my father would ask Busu for four digit numbers that would supposedly strike as the winning prize and sometimes my father would asked the other Spirits for it too. Sometimes they gave and sometimes they refused. I did not know whether my father struck any of the numbers correctly because my father never told us. Busu was the most popular among us children and it seemed that he loved children so much more than any adults.
The Spirits would come in sequence, one after another according to their ranking within their family members but sometimes they never appeared to us in sequenced because some ot them were busy doing other things in their world, perhaps praying, meditating and praising Allah, and maybe prying on other human beings too beside our own family. Busu on the other hand always handled the situations when ther others could not come. Usually when my mother was sad or ill in health, he would inform my father about it and it seemed that they too believed in the modern medicines that the doctors provided for my mother. Whenever my mother felt ill they would recommend that my father sent my mother to the hospital for treatments and rest, especially, when it was concerning to her heart illness. They seemed to know that they had their own spiritual healing limitations on matters pertaining to the physical body sickness or impairments. Busu never treated the visitors for spiritual healings and the female entities never did that too. Only Shah and Iskandar but sometimes Hamadan would provide that services to the visitors.
As we children grew up, they seemed to fade away and remained invisible to us except Busu. I did not know what was the reason that they faded away. I remembered my mother told me that they had actually requested and seek permission for them to become the followers of my first elder sister, but my mother had rejected thier request. My mother told me that she did not want any of her children to have the Spirit People as our followers anymore. My mother disliked the idea of making her children as the spiritual healer for other people. I think she would like to see her all children educated with good education qualifications and not to become like her. She understood and knew that education was very important for her children's future. We children too disliked that idea of having any Spirits as our followers in the unseen realm. We were all educated in English stream schools and as we grew up, we have more modern knowledge and all of us thence to forego and forget about those Spirit entities of our mother. We actually begun to disbelieved in their existence in fact disbelieved totally about their spiritual healings capabilities. We did not wish to see our mother in a trance state again because we felt it was not good for her to become like that and my mother somehow knew about our feelings pertinent to her world of spiritual healing. She stopped doing that after we shifted to our new flat apartment. We shifted from Kampung Ladang in 1973. No more visitors for spiritual healing treatments and we led a normal life just like any other family in Singapore.
Some of us begaun to think that probably our mother was actually suffering multi-split personalities, especially, my third elder sister who was by then working as a nurse in the hospital and my eldest brother became so afraid of the Spirit people thinking that they were demons or evil spirits. And my siblings wondered whether it was true or false when we became like a nation with Western Ideas.
It seemed that as we older, the Spirits too became extinct in our lives. Busu too became silence and my mother was busy with her food business. As we grew older, we became like a modern family and we started speaking to one another in English, except to our own mother. We siblings became to distance ourselves from one another and also with Malay traditions and customs as we gained more modern knowledge at schools and in society. The past incidence of our mother's spiritual healings were put at the back of our mind and we buried it as we developed into young men and women. As for me, I was busy with my friends and thinking about my future or hunting for girlfriends.
Only a few occasions Busu turned up when somebody tried to do Black Magic Charmed or 'Voodoo' to our family. That was the time I was serving my National Service in the Army from 1981 to 1983. He came and inform my father that the Malay lady was our own relative, in fact, his own niece because she was involved in an affair with a married man. She was chased out from her own family and she had temporarily stayed us but she invited that man to our flat when tere were nobody at home. My mother was so angry and she chased her out from the our house and she became very vindictive towards our family. She went to seek services of the Malays and Indians 'Bomohs' or Witchcraft mentors. She threw bloods, oils and some pounded incense in front of our door entrance.
During that period of disturbances, there was one occasion whereby I was going to the kitchen then as I reached at the entrance of the kitchen, I felt something pushed me aside. I vaguely saw a tall thin light and shadow passing like lightning in front of my eyes. At that same moment, my eldest sister's boyfriend was sitting at the table near the kitchen entrance, he too saw something that went towards my mother as she passed out at the telephone table not far from the kitchen entrance. He was very frightened of what he had witnessed and he told my sister about it. It turned out to be an evil entity that was not from my mother's Spirit People. That evil entity possessed my mother's body. It was wild and ferocious like a wild animal. My father tried to chase that entity out from my mother's body but it was so adamant that my father had begun to call for my mother's Spirit People to help him and his wife. Then the evil entity went out and Busu appeared. Busu told my father that someone had sent that evil spirit to disturb my mother and his own niece requested for it. Of course my father did not call up or looked for his niece because it was ridiculous to do that without any solid proof. Busu left my mother's body and a few days later Busu came and told us that he had disturbed and tormented my father's niece at night until she became frightened of him. At the end, she came to seek forgiveness from my father and mother. She admitted ot her evil doing and sins. My father forgave her but not my mother. I had noticed that Busu was not like he used to be in the past and he seemed more serious like as though he too had matured in aged. That was the only occasion Busu came and then disappeared again from our lives.
I must emphasized to you the readers that what I have written in this chapter are all according to what I saw and I know about. It is a true story and there is no fabrication. I was a Muslim in the past and as a Muslim, we believed in the existence of Spirits or 'Djinns' in the unseen realm because it is stated in the Holy Qur'an and the teaching of Islamic Faith. I just took it as it was and never questioned about it until much later in my life, especially when I was living in Indonesia and when I was in Changi Prison. That was when I started to do my own researched about the Spirit People or 'Djinns'.
The question now is whether Busu is the same entity that wrote together with me in this book? I have to tell you the truth. I am not sure myself because he never did revealed to me that he is Busu, the Spirit follower of my mother. I will write some more in the next chapter about my first wife possession in Singapore and my ex-second wife's (Yani) Spirit people from the unseen world in Indonesia. I hope you could see for yourself where all these Spirits calling from. By the way, my late mother, Salmah Binte Eusope, inherited the Spirit People from her foster mother, my Grandmother, Zainab Binte Midon.
I have written about my mother before I write about her followers of 'Djinns' or Spirit People from the unseen world and she was able to perform the spiritual healing partly because of them.

I had noticed that Busu was not like he used to be in the past and he seemed more serious like as though he too had matured in aged. That was the only occasion Busu came and then disappeared again from our lives.
I must emphasized to you the readers that what I have written in this chapter are all according to what I saw and I know about. It is a true story and there is no fabrication. I was a Muslim in the past and as a Muslim, we believed in the existence of Spirits or 'Djinns' in the unseen realm because it is stated in the Holy Qur'an and the teaching of Islamic Faith. I just took it as it was and never questioned about it until much later in my life, especially when I was living in Indonesia and when I was in Changi Prison. That was when I started to do my own researched about the Spirit People or 'Djinns'.
The question now is whether Busu is the same entity that wrote together with me in this book? I have to tell you the truth. I am not sure myself because he never did revealed to me that he is Busu, the Spirit follower of my mother. I will write some more in the next chapter about my first wife possession in Singapore and my ex-second wife's (Yani) Spirit people from the unseen world in Indonesia. I hope you could see for yourself where all these Spirits calling from. By the way, my late mother, Salmah Binte Eusope, inherited the Spirit People from her foster mother, my Grandmother, Zainab Binte Midon.
