How Should I Bring My Guman Thong Into the House?

When first bring our Guman Thong into the house we should place him in a suitable location and spend sometime introducing him the new environment in a loving voice. We should feed our Guman Thong just the same way we would with any children. We should also worship Guman Thong with flowers and by lighting incense sticks. It is said that Guman Thong likes the scents of roses probably due to red colour.


Where Should I Place my Guman Thong?

You should place your Guman Thong on a shelf, but not too high. Do not place him under the stairs, at the end of your bed, or on the same alter with other Buddha images. Guman Thong should always be placed on a shelf lower than Buddha or any other monk?s buchas.


In What Direction Should Guman Thong sitting direction face?

You should not turn your Guman Thong to face West direction.


How Often Should I Feed My Guman Thong and When?

Ideally you should feed your Guman Thong on a daily basis in the morning before anyone in the household have their breakfast. After cooking separate a portion of the food and place in front of him. The proper way when giving food to him you should call out his name to come and receive the food. In today?s busy working life, we can?t even cook breakfast for ourselves not to mention about cooking for Guman Thong. But you can always share with him your bread, sandwich or biscuits that you would usually bring to office. You can also bring him candies too.

Inviting your Guman Thong to eat will please him immeasurably and in return he will bring you good luck. Don?t forget to offer red colour syrup drinks e.g. Ribena or a glass of plain water. You may also offer him daily milk too. A Guman Thong owner previously shared his experience about offering packet milks. He reported that it?s amazing to note that there?s not even a single ant near his Guman Thong surrounding.

Alternatively you can tell your Guman Thong a scheduled time that you will feed him and replace his food, sweets and beverage once every 2 or 3 days. Likewise, if you intend to go outstation you can tell him where you are going and when you are coming back so that he can protect you. Tell him to help himself and be good during your absence.


Are There Any Specific Incantations Used When Giving or Taking Away Food?

Yes there are. You can use this incantation when inviting your Guman Thong to eat by saying:
?Mama bari pu cha chan-du jam maha poota a-kunchaiya a-kunchaimi ae-himama mama?.

When removing food away it is also good to pardon yourself by placing your hands together in respect and say:
?Ugasa Ugasa, Pahwan Dtu Mae?


How Should Other Children In The House Address Guman Thong?

Other children in the house are naturally inquisitive and they must understand that your Guman Thong is not a toy. The children must learn to address your Guman Thong as ?Pee? (brother) or by his name if been given by the monk or temple.
