edenstrauss 3 Report post Posted October 2, 2010 (edited) Hi Kalimantan, It's advisable that you consult the professionals on this matter as it's very tricky and complicated. There's many issues involved because I do not think that you can just combine any dieties together, especially when they aren't housed in a temple, but at home. The temples would probabbly have "niches" for different types of dieties as you'll have noticed it during your visits - they must have a reason as to why they do that. Everbody has different practices. I've read somewhere that says it's not advisable to combine statues of GY & Kuandi together. And also, for some people, they claimed that they became very very unlucky after having many statues of different dieties placed in their homes. I have no idea if their bad luck has anything to do with it. So it's best to get the procedure right for the very first time & not take risks. It's advisable to check with your regular FS master, that's if u have one. Otherwise, you might want to contact the Lorong Koo Chye Sheng Hong Temple at No. 15, Arumugam Road, Singapore 409960, tel : 6-744-3187. Their website address is: http://www.shtemple.org.sg/ The priests there should be able to advise you. Good Luck!

Not sure if it's also because of destiny or no affinity with some of the deities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
