SEEKING TAI SUI'S BLESSINGS AND PROTECTION FOR 2012

For the year of the Dragon, the Tai Suiis Peng Tai.  The Taoists have a practice of praying to Tai Sui to seek blessings and protection for the year.  In Cantonese, praying or pacifying Tai Sui is referred to as Sip Tai Sui. This year one can carry out the ritual of praying to Tai Sui after the 13th day of the lunar month.
As I had a lot on my hands from the start of the new year until recently, I only managed to perform the ritual last Sunday.  As usual I will go to the Paloh Old Temple or the Tai Pak Kong Temple in Ipoh Old Town.  There are specialists who will help to conduct the ritual for us.  Not only did I pray to Tai Sui, I also had the  ritual to get rid of troublemakers as well.
For your information, those who have had the Tai Sui ritual performed at the beginning of the year must perform a thanksgiving ceremony at the end of the year.
