Yes. suicide is an escapism. according to master chin kong,
those who die via suicide, will be reborn as a ghost. the ghost
will want to find a substitute, otherwise once every 7 days, he/she
will relive the scene of the suicide once more. the lifespan of a
ghost is very long, minimum a few hundred years old.
so those people who died 2000 years ago, reborn as a ghost when
they die, they still wander as a ghost till this day and age.
Talk about ghost - what about people who refuse to turn over a new
leaf - continue to spread malicious gossip, break relationship,
full of jealousy, jealousy motivates them to create more nuisance
for others, they keep telling themselves they don't know what will
happen after they die, so they adopt a heck care attitude and go on
make things difficult for others. Will these people
become ghosts after they die regardless if they gui yi or not?
