According to medical reports, this illness is caused by either environmental factors or genetics However not many people know that schizophrenia illness is actually a form of punishment from the spiritual world. In this story, the person, Johnathan who died from schizophrenia is caused by ghost punishment.
Johnathan, as an avid explorer, he embarked on a trip to The Red House situated in Pasir Ris alone. He was keen to explore the place, known to many of the chalet-goers, for thrills. He ventured into the labyrinth of houses in the bushes. The atmosphere was dark and spooky, with spider webs hanging on the edge of the gates and a pair of stone lions stared at whoever attempted to sneak into the compound.
Upon reaching the front gate of the house, he was a little cheeky.
“Knock, knock… is there any pretty girl in the house?’’ Johnathan joked.
A sudden gush of wind blew past his face. The window of the house suddenly blew open. To his surprise, he saw a beautiful female doll sitting on the rocking chair in the house.
“Boy,ah boy….can you bring me along to every place that you go…” a voice whispered into his ears.
“Where did the voice possibly come from?’’ thoughts ran through his mind. He looked around and there was no one physically beside him. He was in great distress, fear creeping into his heart as a cold chill ran down his spine; his blood froze, and stood rooted to the ground.
“I am the doll, put me in your bag now!” the voice requested Johnathan again.
His mind had gone total blank and became so panicky, not knowing how to react to the situation at all. He finally decided to follow the voice’s instructions.
Johnathan brought home the doll with him. For the first few days, everything was going fine, and they had many playful times. During this time, the female spirit, disguised as a doll, pulled him to fall in love with her, in order to take advantage of him. True enough, Johnathan felt into the trap of the spirit….
Johnathan was possessed; he remained silent and was in his own world, helplessly searching for the female doll. He could not let go his love for her, despite others saying that he was like a toad lusting after a swan’s flesh.
In real life, he kept getting bizarre illusions and hallucinations. He always kept talking to himself, not wanting to contact anyone. He was also very paranoid over little things. His speech was also getting disorganised, due to the lack of speech with anyone.
It was a big shock for Johnathan’s parents as he was always a healthy and lively boy. They did not know what had happened to him. They brought him to many well-known psychology doctors frequently. After much tests, the doctor diagnosed him as suffering from schizophrenia. The doctor expected the life expectancy for Johnathan to be about 25 years shorter than average person. The only medical treatment for this illness was the antipsychotic medication.
At the same time, his parents had invited many monks from the near-by temple for prayers. They hoped that the monks were able to “chase” away the spirits.
To no avail, the female spirit was still staring at Johnathan with huge reddish eyes, dressed in white. The hand of the spirit seemed to be made of heavy metal. He could feel the cold, hard metal pressing down hard on his body, torturing him. He tried to struggle to escape, that is why he had a sudden violent outburst and there was so much din coming from his room. His parents had to pray against their worst fears. Johnathan was found on the ground, whimpering with breaths so sporadic like a fish out of water, whispering “I give up”.
All methods failed. Johnathan’s parents’ heart shattered into a thousand fragments, tears welled up their eyes. They brought him into this world full of hopes and dreams; instead they witnessed the breaking down of him.
This was actually a spiritual retribution for Johnathan, as he had cheated on his wife in his earlier life. A lesson learnt,not to play with any woman’s feelings in your life.
