'Facing' death at Tok Selehor's special meditation hole

Continued from Tomb of Tok Selehor revisited.


Within the graveyard area also lies a certain building.




It is a special place, a remnant from the time of Tok Selehor when a certain way of meditation was practised to allow pupils to have a peek at the universe' hidden realities.


What realities are we talking about? For one it is about life after death.



For inside this building lies a hole.




It goes down 6 to 8 feet or so reaching the same underground level as the deceased buried.




This is no joke. Only a few feet of dirt and ground separates us from the actual remains of the dead. This is how it looks in the darkness. And this was still daytime.




A picture with flash. Baby Al-Rasyid was getting agitated having been forced to sit still for this shot. Notice the sloped area to the right. That's when pupils used to lie in silent meditation just like the dead. If your lucky (or unlucky? Depends really on how you see the supernatural) you could have the experience of seeing with your very own eyes the coming of two angels sent specially for questioning your deeds on earth. And what happens next, whether it is scary or beautiful depends on how you did upon examination. No joke. I understand it is practically a glimpse of paradise or hellfire...
