Ghost encounter leaves Thai Dhamma retreat-goer spooked in Chiang Mai

[snoop1130]

 

A Thai woman claimed that a ghost haunted her after completing a Dhamma retreat at a Rampoeng temple in the northern province of Chaing Mai. She also shared her selfie with the ghost in the background on TikTok.

 

Sawitcha “Pear” Butsara, shared a spooky video of her ghost encounter on TikTok @pipimpeary, on Wednesday, October 18, with the caption…

 

“What I gained from my Dhamma retreat. Not concentration and awareness, but a ghost.”

 

The video shows Pear taking part in a walking meditation exercise at the temple before transitioning into taking a selfie near her car.

 

In the picture, Pear is sitting in the driver’s seat, with a dark shadow resembling a person behind her in the passenger seat. Pear insisted she was travelling alone and believed the shadow was a ghost.

Be careful of what you wish for...

I recall years ago I wanted to take a photograph of my wife in the grounds of Wat Chedi Luang under a HUGE tree with a real camera (not phone) and there were a few focussing adjustments etc to make.

My wife was feeling uneasy and said we shouldn't be taking pictures here.

(she's Thai)...  with that said, a branch about 6ft long fell down from the tree and grazed her shoulder.

Lots of 'pee' in that compound!

Could the person be a Saint or Prophet..
