Mystical hemostasis of Nung people

The Nung people in Chi Lang commune (Chi Lang, Lang Son) have the art of hemostasis by reciting mantras. The article was read by the "shamans" to help the person in distress, even if the skin was torn, the flesh was broken, and the blood flowed in and out just for a moment.

At Chi Lang, there are a few people who are able to catch him, and are old. One of them was blind Thi Giang, 78 years old, in Dong Dinh village. Mr. Giang said, in the past, there was a high-ranking teacher in Quan Thanh, famous for his hemostasis. He had a surname with his father, Giang. He has a few students following the profession, including Mr. Giang.

Teachers who are literate, bright eyes should write in the book and Mr. Giang does not see, but catches words very quickly, only speaking through one or two times belongs. At a new teacher session, he told him: "Knowing it (reciting mantra) is not with me but waiting for someone to bleed is a long time! If you want to try to know it right away, you should take a chopping knife with a small banana tree and read it, banana banana not flowing to the ground is it still, not broken '.

Mr. Thi Giang said that the teacher took the steps and recited the mantra, after a while there was no more plastic bananas flowing out. Nor did he believe that his mantra is effective, more careful, he also chopped off a cactus and read the mantra, seeing that the sap also stopped flowing. From then on, he only performed on him.

According to Mr. Giang, mantra technique applies well to people who have bleeding off the skin and have never cut the fingers and toes ever done.'The most severe case I have ever bleeding is Mr. Binh in Quan Thanh. In the 1960s, he cut down the tobacco plant, unfortunately, had a knife to his feet, blood flowed, and he was forced to lie down on the river bank. Someone took a bicycle to take me to stop bleeding. After a while, the blood stopped flowing, I took the rag to cover my feet, they carried him to the river to go home, " Mr. Giang said.

The most important thing in hemostasis is to hold your breath and read the mantra without breathing, without interruption. Also because he was too old, his lungs were no longer healthy to read a circuit of incantations in Nung language for a long time in a state of holding his breath as before, so for four years now, no one had asked for help, Mr. Thi Giang did not do anymore.

In Chi Lang, besides the hemostatic branch of Mr. Thi Giang, there is another branch of Mr. Nong Quoc Vinh in Dong Ngu village. Mr. Vinh, who was born by his father, Nong Van Loc (passed away), passed it on to this art since childhood. Unlike the monk, the monk abstains from abstaining from stepping on the clothesline, abstaining from dog meat, buffalo meat comes to abstain from sleeping with his wife before the ceremony, the teachers who hold the bleeding techniques need not abstain from anything.

This mantra is also very simple, does not need any gold when done. It appears to be especially useful when accidents occur in high mountains, deep forests or remote places, ways to return, difficult to have medical treatment. Even people who know the secret to recite mantra when they are in distress can also stop bleeding.

Mr. Vinh slipped on his slippers, pulling his pants up only for a very deep scar on his big toe.'My legs were once carelessly hammered, blood spurted out a lot. Taking off my shoes, I saw that the hammer had split off the big toe, the two pieces just stuck together with a bit of skin. I squeezed my hand hard and then recited the tip of my toes without another drop of blood. At that time, I was on the mountain, about 9km away from home, but I still hobbled walking home, taking medicine for instant meat. Seven days later, I went to work normally , " Vinh said.

But in recent years, the mantra has been kept in Mr. Vinh's head forever, but he did not come out from the tongue because anyone who is bleeding now goes to the hospital, comes to the clinic without being able to come to see the teachers. The famous hemostatic technique is sometimes applied only to children and grandchildren in the house when they accidentally break their limbs.

Fear of being lost, the mantra was carefully recorded in the book, when the child and grandchildren wanted to study, they were still at heart, but no one would follow. When the guest offered to study, Mr. Vinh greeted him. Just like what he said, whether it was Nung or Kinh or any other nation, it was okay to memorize it by heart.

Of course as well as Mr. Thi Giang's mantra, when reading, one must hold the breath completely apart and there is also a very difficult thing that the tongue is not sharp. Men read all seven times, women read nine times. While reading while holding hands in the bleeding area, the blood will stop but only apply to skin bleeding while bleeding inside is not possible.

The whole incantation of the Nung verse is as follows: 'Goofy naughty child. Sunlight of the sunshine. Structure and revulsion must be heavy. The profile must be heavy. Disgusting fortune diagnosis'. I mean, 'Meat is broken, then take meat. Torn skin takes skin to cover. I told him to listen. I told him to bear. If you don't listen to me, I have to beat you. '

Mr. Vinh explained the first part of the mantra is a way to order the victim's body to "regenerate" itself, stop the bleeding. The last sentence: 'The devastating property look ' is the main purpose of . threatening ghosts so that bad forces no longer haunt people.

The art of hemostasis by reciting the Nung's mantra if you remove all the mystical elements will find it very close to hypnosis that is still being used by the world.
