A trip to heaven?
A spiritual master from Tze Bei Guan Yin Centre (George Town, Penang), Master Kek Eng Seng is charging laymen RM150 (S$61) each for the three-hour tour to heaven.
The tours have been criticised by Buddhist groups as well as religious and cultural proponents. World Fellowship of Buddhists (Penang Regional Centre) chairman Datuk Dr Loh Hock Hun said such tours were not part of Buddhism.
But Master Kek defended the tour, saying it was not something superstitious.
“We do not promote superstition. This is a long-lost tradition which was only brought to light in Malaysia recently.”

Phra Katha Chinabunchorn Mantra
Phra Katha Chinabunchorn Mantra is chanted by almost everybody in Thailand, and is considered to be one of the most Sacred Kata available for Chanting. The scripture text consolidated the divine powers of Budhha, the 500 Arahant and the Immortals from Heaven to protect those who recite the scripture text.
How did this Katha come about? There are three different version of history linking it to either Phra Somdej Toh of Wat Rakang Kositaram or otherwise. The first version is the Chinabunchorn Mantra is given to Phra Somdej Toh by a Sri Lanka Buddhism monk on a visit to Thailand. The second version is a Deva came into the dream of Phra Somdej Toh and tell him that there is a great Mantra buried somewhere around Wat Rakang Kositaram. After showing Phra Somdej Toh the location of the buried Mantra the Deva disappear. The next day when Phra Somdej Toh was awake he dug the spot that the Deva has point out and he found the Chinabunchorn Mantra. As the Mantra has been buried for century under the Temple, some of the words are unreadable. So the great Phra Somdej Toh have to mediate to recreate the lost wording. Third version of the myth is that Katha Chinabunchorn was composed by a Phra Thaera from Chiang Mai whose name is not recorded in the Mantra history.
When learning to recite the Katha, devotee must recite it on a Thursday, have his/ her body cleansed and wear only clean clothing. Nine joss-sticks must be lighted and offered before the Buddha and any other Deities at the altar in your home. Fresh jasmine flowers or any other 5-coloured flowers are to be place before the holy image.
