jgn takut sm hantu,takut sm tuhan!!!

to my late uncle once remove, may you rest in peace..

so yesterday, i went to my late uncle's 6th day ceremony since he died at his family house in tuaran..the upacara is called momisok..it was uber scary~~fortunately, i didn't really believe in this mystical stuff..unfortunately,i encounter to one last night...
to educate u ppl more abt our customs, let me give u the chronology in berkabung done by the Kadazan Penampang that i got from here..credits to nanakboy88~~

Kronologi Hari Berkabung
Berikut Merupakan Kronologi Hari Berkabung bagi keluarga si mati:

Hari Pertama-hari ketiga: Mayat masih disimpan didalam keranda didalam rumah.

Hari ketiga atau Hari keempat: Jasad disemadikan dalam tanah.

Hari keenam: Upacara “Momisok” (Roh simati akan dipanggil untuk berjumpa dengan ahli keluarga) semasa upacara ini semua sumber cahaya akan ditutup begitu juga dengan bunyi. Para hadirin akan ditegah untuk berbuat bising.

Hari ketujuh: Upacara “mogukas” (upacara untuk membakar barangan milik si mati agar dapat diguna pada alam kematiannya)

Sepanjang tujuh hari tersebut permainan Katam-katam akan dimainkan iaitu satu permainan untuk memberi keuntungan (berunsurkan perjudian) kepada pengunjung atau saudara mara yang tiba ke rumah keluarga simati. -->my fav game..lol~

Hari ke 40: Upacara sembahyang

Hari ke 100: Upacara Sembahyang
*Keluarga si mati akan memakai perca kain yang berwarna biru,kuning dan lain lain warna sebagai tanda kaitan kekeluargaan terhadap si mati. Namun semasa upacara “mogukas” kesemua perca kain berwarna itu akan dibakar bersama sama barangan simati.

and now, be amaze( n prepared), as u'll read my entry abt my personal experience....
(*rah3)

as the day slowly turns to night, the ceremony started..as 'Q' for the beginning of the ceremony, my grandma(moing jang), ekceli she's my late grandmother's younger sister, begins calling the spirit of my late uncle to come home..
the dogs began making this sound..dont ekceli know what it resembles,but to me,it sounded like the dogs was getting beaten up,but most the others heard that it kinda resembles them being tickled..(ok,whatever!)..so,that's when the chill started getting to me..but being a non-believer,i just sit next my my lil' cuzzy and mendagu tangan d meja sebelah..yeah i know,looks really irritating..maybe that's why my uncle showed himself to me..but fortunately not in close range..(syukur alhamdulillah)
so,as it's getting juicier by the moment..with my moing jang is screaming frantically,and his(my late uncle) mother tried to calmed her down, all eyes are turning to the living room area..much to my dismay,one guy stood up and limpas in front of the whole crowd in the living room to where moing jang was screaming.."aiyah!buli lg ada urg mo menyibuk p sana.."
as i recall,he was tinggi2 tagap,and jalan terhinjut2 ckit..mcm sakit kaki..trus he jalan menyeret kaki bh..mcm urg sakit kaki.."penyibuk kan",dlm hati sy berkata..haha!!skalinya after the ceremony,i asked la my uncle2 and aunty2 yg len..sapa yg kuar tu..believe it or not, nobody saw him..OMG!!!make it a double OMG..
and so,the moral value of this story is,jgn mendagu tgn ketika upacara sebegini..the ones who usually doesn't believe is the one who got showed..wahaha!!kalo x pcy pun,pura2 pecaya ja..haha!bh,until then..tata~

p.s:nice seeing you yesterday uncle onoi..hihi!!and i appreciate the none-close-range meeting..lol~

p.p.s:didnt freaked me out that great coz i know, if betol pun he ada datang,he was my uncle..and just like my lil cuzzy said "jgn takut sm hantu,tkt sama tuhan!!"
