Anting-anting

[Wileen]

"Shrouded in secrecy and mystery, the anting-anting is a subject close to the Filipino's heart. It holds promise of invincibility, of victory and of heroic deeds. Legends have been born and men have died because of the lure of the mysterious and powerful anting-anting." A quote from Anting-Anting-The Filipino Warrior's Amulet, Written by Reynaldo S. Galang.
I heard of many stories and testimonies about the anting-anting. Is anyone using or possess such a thing?

One of the top guys who used to train with us used to wear a necklace with a "charm". He used to joke with us that this was his "anting-anting". He was/is VERY good! So maybe...? Who knows?

Anting-anting as far as I know are stuff of legends though I have encountered a person who said he has anting-anting which gave him the healing touch. This old man is the best manghihilot in our Province of Sorsogon, in the Philippines. I could attest to his skills because I have been a recipient of his healing hands several times. His skills could be just natural abilities and nothing to do with his anting-anting. Or he is using the anting-anting as an aid to focusing his healing abilities without really knowing it...who knows?

Talking of Anting Anting, I had several and I practice it when I am still a young boy up to my early teens.

I had posted a thread related to it in the other section of Blade Forum and it reach to a long thread.

My anting anting that I had deals mostly of the so called "Oracion". I feed them with several prayers before I go to sleep and in going out from the house.

It might be unbelievable but nothing I lose also if I still continue practicing it. Besides, there are many phenomenon which cannot really explained by many.

My logic is. If me and my friend has different belief i.e. he believe of no heaven and hell, whilst me believe the existence of both. Then when we past of this plane of dimension and it is true that there is heaven and hell than I am at a better advantage then he is. If it turns out to be none, I did not lost nothing. Anyway, everything lies in faith.

I have witnessed several demonstration but I cannot say if it is really the power of anting-anting a "third force" or just merely the power of the person himself that he was born to have that ability. Either he/she developed that power or he/she was inborn to be like that.

The power of anting-anting can just be feel and proven by the one possessing or practicing it.

On my case, since that old man transferred what he knows to me, I have so much confidence on my self it comes to trouble, I always feel I can overcome my opponent. I am thankful even at my early 40's now even I was in many trouble, I am always on top.

Thanks
