Have you ever had a ghost press bed?Have you ever seen a ghost?Does the almost personal experience between waking up still make you feel palpitations?
I had this experience when I was a child, and I still remember it vividly, and I remember seeing ghosts when I went to school to pack up my stationery after graduating from junior high school. I was only 15 years old at the time, and I remember that when I went to school, I had just had lunch, and the middle school in the township was living in the school at that time, and the sheets and bedding had been packed up and home, and there was only a bare bed board left on the bed. The head of the bed was facing west, and there was a small square window on the upper part of the wall.
I remember very well that after I went and packed up a few pens, I suddenly felt very sleepy, so I fell asleep on the bare bed. When I woke up, I found that I couldn't move my body, only my eyes could move, I opened my eyes and looked around, and I couldn't move after a few struggles, so I fell asleep again.
When I woke up again, I found that the room was very bright because the sunlight had entered the dormitory through the window. Our dormitory is one of those old houses, the windows are very small, and the dormitory is usually very dark, and it is only when the sun comes in from the west that it will be very bright. I woke up the second time and still couldn't move, and when I looked into the sun, I saw a person standing at the end of my bed, and I didn't know why the sun was shining on his face, or if it was just like that, the person standing at the end of the bed was very pale and didn't speak. We just looked each other in the eye like that.
Seriously, I still vividly remember how I felt at that time, and I was still a little panicked at that time, and I didn't feel particularly scared. We looked at each other for a while, and I realized that I couldn't move at all, so I closed my eyes again and fell asleep. When I woke up again, it was already dusk, the room was basically dark, and I was able to move. So I rode my bike home. I didn't feel anything about it at the time, especially when I woke up, I didn't even have any impression of it.
But over the years, I have repeatedly thought about it, and I always feel that what I saw that time was not a dream, but probably a ghost, and the more time passes, the more clearly I can remember. More than 20 years have passed to this day, and I still vividly remember how I felt at that time, and I never took a nap as a teenager, but that day I slept for more than six hours, from not long after eating lunch until dusk. Seriously, the dreams I had were quickly forgotten, but the dreams I had from more than 20 years ago became clearer and clearer. It wasn't until I saw an article ** that said a true thing, and I gradually solved the mystery in my heart about this matter for many years. Here's a transcript of this ghost interview.
Around 2000, Mizusawa, a 20-year-old Japanese youth, worked in a game machine room in Nagano Prefecture, Japan. The work of this game room is divided into morning and evening shifts, and the working hours are from half past four in the afternoon to half past 12 in the evening. After getting off work in the middle of the night, Mizusawa would pass by a convenience store on his way home, where he often bought something to eat, and over time he became acquainted with the owner. There wasn't much of anyone in the middle of the night, and the two of them would chat occasionally.
At one point, Mizusawa told the boss at a convenience store, "I don't have anything to do when I go home now, I don't have a TV show, I don't have anything to do, and I can't sleep." The boss saw that the young man was very realistic, so he said to Mizusawa: "Otherwise, if you go to my convenience store and work for another two or three hours, you won't be able to sleep anyway, why don't you work for a while and then go home?"So Mizusawa worked two jobs, and after getting off work from the game room at night, he would work two hours at a convenience store, and he would come home at about three or four o'clock in the morning.
Mizusawa is a typical Japanese youth who couldn't even afford a mobile phone around the year 2000. It is normal for a young man like him to come to the city from a small place to work without a mobile phone. And at that time, mobile phones really didn't have any entertainment functions, and when I got home, I couldn't sleep and either watch TV or play game consoles. One day, after working two jobs as usual, Mizusawa got home about early in the morning, ate something, and began to lie in bed and play games, and the sky began to light up as he played. Mizusawa thought, oh no, I have to go to bed quickly, after all, I have to go to work in the afternoon.
Mizusawa didn't sleep for a while, and he felt very uncomfortable, and his whole body was very uncomfortable. Mizusawa looked at the clock at the bedside, it was only seven forty, and it had only been a hundred minutes since he had fallen asleep at 6 o'clock. He couldn't figure out why he was so uncomfortable, he just felt that he was hot, probably because he had a fever, so he wanted to get the thermometer on the table not far away. At this time, Mizusawa found that he only had his hands to move with difficulty, and his body couldn't move at all, and Mizusawa didn't realize that he was pressing the bed with a ghost, but he just felt that he couldn't control his body.
Mizusawa rented an old house, and he was the only one. Mizusawa thought that he must have a serious illness, and if no one knew, he would die. There was an ** extension at the head of Mizuzawa's bed, so he struggled to get this extension down from the bedside and called his girlfriend for help**. Mizusawa asked his girlfriend for help in **, and his girlfriend immediately rushed to him. After Mizusawa hung up, he put his mind down and prepared to sleep for a while, and when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly found two people standing there at the end of his bed.
Standing at the end of Mizusawa's bed were two old men, and Mizusawa didn't know them either. The old man on the left had his head down, but Mizusawa could see his face. The old man on the right looked at Mizusawa, and when Mizusawa's eyes and the old man's eyes on the right were intertwined, they were surprised in each other's eyes.
The old man on the right was the first to speak, and asked Mizuzawa, "Can you see me?"”
Mizusawa said casually: "You can see it."
According to Mizusawa's later recollections, Mizusawa was a little scared at the time, but more excited. Because Mizusawa thinks he is dreaming, not seeing a ghost in reality. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with the two people coming into his house at all, he just felt that he was dreaming, but this dream was so real, and even the touch was so clear. This kind of super real touch is not usually found in dreams. Whether it's a dream or not, anyway, Mizusawa has basically realized that these two old men are probably two ghosts, and he is still talking to him, but Mizusawa is not sure whether these two old men are humans or ghosts. So Mizusawa felt that he should say something to these two old men.
Mizusawa asked, "How did you get in?"”
The old man on the right, who had just begun to speak, pointed to the window next to Mizusawa's bed and said, "I came in from here." ”
By this time it was already daylight, indicating that the ghosts were not afraid of the sun.
Mizusawa then asked, "Did you come to my house for anything?"”
The old man on the right pointed to the old man on the left with his head bowed and said, "He wants to come and say hello to you, so I will bring him to you."
The room where Mizusawa slept was on the second floor, and it was very unreasonable for the two old men to climb in through the window.
Mizusawa, who was still not sure if the two were human or ghosts, asked, "My window is very high, are you sure you came in from here, could it be that you are ghosts?"”
At this time, the old man on the right with his head bowed nodded and hummed, which was regarded as acknowledging the identities of the two.
Mizusawa later recalled that he had been very interested in ghosts and ghosts since he was a child, but he had never seen them, and when he grew up, he felt that ghosts and gods might not be true. Mizusawa realized that he had seen it for real today, and he felt that he should seize the opportunity to ask more questions.
Mizusawa looked at the old man on his right and said, "Can I ask you a few questions?"”
The old man on the right said, "I will answer your question as best I can."
Mizusawa asked, "What kind of person becomes a ghost when he dies?"”
The old man replied, "Those who cannot accept that they are dead, and who take him up and she does not go, will become ghosts."
Mizusawa continued to ask, "What will happen if you don't go up?"
The old man replied, "If you don't go up, you can't enter reincarnation, reincarnate, after a person dies, someone comes to pick you up, you must go with him." ”
Mizusawa asked, "Isn't it okay to make offerings?"”
In Japan, we don't have the same understanding of ghosts as we do, and we usually burn paper at the grave and place offerings to worship, which we don't call an offering. But there is a culture of offering in Japan, and this offering mainly refers to the chanting of sutras by monks, which is similar to what we call Buddhism's transcendence of the deceased, sending them to Elysium or entering the six realms of reincarnation, and reincarnation.
When Mizusawa asked the old man if it was feasible to make offerings, the old man replied that it was useless to make offerings.
Then Mizusawa casually asked, "Isn't it useful for monks to chant sutras?"”
The old man shook his head and said, "What the monks chanted in the end, we didn't understand it at all, it's useless. ”
Mizusawa continued to ask, "Since you can't understand the monk's recitation, doesn't your funeral have any meaning?"”
The old man replied, "The funeral is still useful, at least for the ghosts, the real meaning of the funeral is to tell you, to let you know that you yourself are dead".
The old man continued: "Whether the monks chant sutras or burn paper money, their purpose is to convince you that you are dead. It has nothing to do with the existence of the soul. ”
Many of us think that funerals are for the living, and from this conversation, we can also understand why human beings have funerals. To put it bluntly, the soul does not realize that it is dead after death. When the soul discovers that his relatives and friends cannot see him, and that his portrait will be enshrined in the midst of a pile of offerings, it will understand that he is dead.
This shows that ghosts do not have the ability to understand death, except for a very small number of humans and animals such as elephants, most animals cannot understand death. In fact, people have funerals, and after the elephant dies, the elephant herd will also hold a funeral for it. Ghosts, however, are a species that cannot comprehend death. Maybe after they die, the ghosts still get up normally in another world, live and so on. But when you realize that you can't communicate with your family and friends, it feels a little strange, until you see your funeral and realize that you are dead.
Mizusawa realized that the ghosts could not understand his death, so he asked, "According to what you said, those who died will not realize that they are dead in the end after becoming ghosts, right?"”
Think about it, not everyone has a funeral, if some people die, there is no funeral, or this person is an otaku before his life and does not communicate with people all day long, then even if he dies, coincidentally no one holds a funeral for him, he will not realize that he has died, and he will continue to live as he did before his death.
The old man nodded, saying yes, there will be.
Mizusawa then asked, "You said that someone took you up, so what did you do when you died?"”
The old man said, "Just like me, I began to accumulate the achievements of reincarnation. ”
In fact, this reality is similar to our accumulation of work, and it seems that the soul has to work hard enough to be reincarnated.
Mizusawa asked, "What does it include accumulating these achievements?"”
The old man said, "Just like me, come and pick up people, or Xi take some courses, or have a lot of other jobs, and so on." ”
Seeing this, don't you think such an answer is nonsense?It's exactly like the human world, not only do you have to take exams, but you also have to do some practical work. It can also be seen from here that it is impossible to reincarnate directly after death, and it is necessary to accumulate. It seems that what people say is that after death, what the leeks said is right, not that you want to be reincarnated directly, but you have to be squeezed by the ghost world for a wave.
Mizusawa continued to ask, "Is it possible to be reincarnated after accumulating enough work experience?"”
The old man said: "No, you still need to queue, and in the process of queuing, some people will give up reincarnation." ”
Mizusawa asked, "What happens if you give up reincarnation?"Who would give up reincarnation?”
The old man replied, "The one who renounces reincarnation is what you call a god." The gods you worship were all living beings before, and when they gave up reincarnation in the process of reincarnation, they slowly became gods. ”
Seeing this, I suddenly felt that the posthumous gods described in the Romance of the Gods seemed to have a little bit of rationality. Thousands of years after being canonized as gods, there are still people who have become gods one after another, such as Guan Erye, such as the Eight Immortals, etc., and there is a high probability that they are also those who have given up reincarnation.
Mizusawa asked again: "Just now you mentioned that someone came to pick him up, and you must go up with him, so what will happen to those who don't go up in the end?"”
The old man said: "There is a high probability, those who don't go up don't know what their future will be, and it is likely that they will wander around and eventually disappear slowly."
Then Mizusawa asked according to his own understanding, "Did these people who didn't go up finally become floating spirits?"Floating spirits are a type of supernatural that gathers near tunnels or lakes. ”
This is a cultural symbol of the Japanese supernatural, and many Japanese supernatural works also use tunnels and lakes as locations. In those places, at night, people would hear voices as if they were whispering. There are even bloggers who go to those places to spend the night, and they have really recorded the voices of some people talking.
After Mizusawa explained the floating spirits to the old man, the old man nodded and said, "The ones you are talking about are actually some very poor ghosts. They're basically ghosts who can't accept that they're dead, or know they're dead, but don't decide to stay. ”
Mizusawa asked, "Why do some ghosts decide to stay even though they know they're dead?"”
The old man said: "Although some people know that they are dead, they still do not want to leave their loved ones. Therefore, these spirits will stay and guard their families and lovers all the time. It may be that they are looking at his family, and after a long time, they will gradually forget their existence. One day, when the ghost finds that all the family members he knows are gone, and there is no one in this world who knows him, and no one knows him, he will realize why I haven't left yetBut by this time it was too late, and he didn't have a chance to go up again. ”
Isn't it curious to see this, is it possible that the family of the deceased is dead, and they can't see the souls of the deceased family members who are guarding them?Mizusawa was naturally curious and asked the same question. The old man's answer was also yes, he couldn't see it, because most of his family members would go up after they died, and it was possible to see each other unless someone in his family chose to stay, but most of them couldn't see it.
Mizusawa asked curiously, "What will happen to the ghosts that can't go up in the end?"”
The old man said, "After all their family members are dead, these ghosts will drift with the tide and the wind, gradually forgetting their existence. Gradually turn into a small dot. "
Mizusawa immediately came to the spirit: "Did you become a spirit ball?"
The spirit ball is a Japanese interpretation of the soul, such as some light spots on the **, or some sparkle points next to the water's edge, etc.
The old man said no.
Mizusawa continued to ask, "Since it's not, then why do ghosts gather next to the water's edge?"”
The old man replied, "It's because of the sound, because the sound by the waterside or in the tunnel is like the sound in my mother's belly." ”
I'm a little sad to see this, the so-called life to death, that's probably it, right?From ** to ** to **, even if the soul will eventually disappear, I still choose to return to the feeling of being in my mother's womb. The tunnel is dark, and the sound next to the water's edge is very similar to the sound of amniotic fluid in the mother's womb who is raising a baby?When the ghosts who decide to stay realize that they have lost the meaning of their existence, they will choose to find their own way and gather in a place similar to the environment in their mother's womb, and slowly wait for their disappearance. So, friends, when you realize that your deceased relatives are not leaving, but are actually guarding you and your family, their final destination is very pitiful, and they have lost the opportunity to be reincarnated or become a god in exchange for the opportunity to protect their own family, and when their family members are gone, they will slowly disappear.
Mizusawa continued to ask, "Can others see the two of you too?"”
The old man said, "No, you can't see us under normal circumstances."
Mizusawa asked, "Who can see it?"Is it a person with a supernatural constitution?”
The old man said, "There is no medium at all, and who can see the soul is determined by the ghost." If I'm going to let you see me, I'll take a step forward and you'll see me. If I don't want you to see me, I take a step back and you won't see me. ”
Mizusawa continued to ask, "Why can I see you, did you deliberately let me see you?"”
The old man said, "Actually, we didn't take a step forward, and we don't know why you saw us. ”
Mizusawa said, "Could it be that my ghost presses the bed?"”
The old man explained: "When we want you to see us and want to communicate with you, we will make you ghostly press the bed. Otherwise, if you're scared, you'll run away, and you won't be able to communicate. ”
Mizusawa said, "Oh, I see, I will be frightened when a ghost with a hideous face and a bloody face appears. ”
The old man said, "No, there will be no such deliberately frightening ghosts. ”
Mizusawa said: "I saw that the ghosts in film and television dramas are not what you say, they are all scary. ”
"Most ghosts care a lot about what they wear, especially women, and they wear the clothes they wore when they were younger," the old man said. Of course, there are also people like us, who wear one-piece work clothes before their deaths. I was an electrician and he was a lumberjack, and the reason why we dressed like this was so that my family could recognize us more quickly. Because we usually appear at night, if we don't put on our work clothes, we are afraid that our family will not recognize us. So when you can't see clearly, wearing the iconic clothes that are most easily recognizable by your family is also a dress choice for some ghosts. ”
The old man said this, mainly to express that some ghosts want their families to see them, in order to leave the best impression on their families, so almost all ghosts will be very concerned about their clothes, and will never appear in front of their family members in a scary way. Ghosts wear clothes that make them most recognizable, and family members can recognize them when they want to communicate with them.
Mizusawa raised another question of his own: "Why are you sometimes caught on camera?"”
There must be a lot of ** on this thing, that is, when many people take **, there will be more than half of the face on the ** group photo crowd.
The old man said, "Usually the camera can't capture ghosts, but occasionally they do. Therefore, when people take pictures, the ghost is afraid that he will be photographed, so he will immediately hide. But the ghost doesn't know if it's over, so he can't help but show his head to see if the shooting is finished, and as soon as he shows up, he just presses the shutter at this time, and it is easy to be photographed. ”
The old man's answer also explains why some so-called ghosts**, ghosts always appear in the corners.
The old man continued: "In fact, if you are really photographed, the consequences will be very serious, and some people will be angry. Mom will be angry. ”
The old man began to tell Mizusawa who his mother was, and his mother was terrible and said a lot.
Finally, the old man said to Mizusawa, "We are leaving now, do you want to go with us?"”
Mizusawa said to the old man: "I just called my girlfriend, and she will come in a while, so I won't go with you." ”
After speaking, the sound of Mizusawa's girlfriend going upstairs was heard, and Mizusawa's body could understand it at this time, and the uncomfortable energy seemed to disappear in an instant. So Mizusawa got up immediately, and when he got up, he found that the two old men at the end of the bed had disappeared. So Mizusawa wrote down all the content of the conversation he had just had with the old man, but it was clear that it had just happened, and Mizusawa just couldn't remember the content of the part where the old man said that his mother was terrible. Content is also very important. But Mizusawa said that he had no impression in his mind at all about this paragraph, and he only knew that the old man had told him this, but he couldn't remember the specific content.
Now in his forties, Mizusawa still retains this note, and it is still publicly displayed on the Internet. If you are interested, you can find out.
