The Unpossessed medium

This is a true strange story told to me by a friend in Bukit Mertajam.It happened more than 20 years ago during a procession of Kew Ong Yah's (nine Emperor God) festival.

There were crowds of people assembling near the temple during the nine days festival.As usual people crowded the place to witness the various activities catered for the deities.There was also a medium who conducted religious rites for the needy like sickness and also for "empat ekor numbers" followers.

As usual on that particular day,the medium had to chant some prayers before the deity could only come to possess his body.As he was chanting the prayers,strangely he could not be possessed and his assistance was duly worried and he started to see around the people what had gone wrong.Finally,he noticed that there was a young boy with the word "Jesus is great" printed over his singlet and he knew that this is the answer to the problem.

He asked the young boy to distance away from the medium and sure enough the medium was possessed after some incantations.

What a coincidence?
