A cursed Angkor Wat?
One of my acquaintances never visits Angkor Wat. He says the place is cursed. Despite this, I have visited the place three or four times, and I haven't notice anything indicating that the place is cursed. But does that prove that the place is not cursed?
Today, Märtha Louise was interviewed in Dagbladet (Norwegian Newspaper). She talked about her book, and how to get in contact with one's angel. I don't know much about her work, but I guess her world view and my world view differs quite a bit. Still, I think she is very right about one point: There is more between heaven and earth than what we can immediately observe and count.
I find it very fascinating to study how the Bible explains the "beyond"; including the fight between good and evil. I am grateful that there is a Power, God, who knows everything and is strong and wise and someone to trust. To me it therefore makes perfectly sense that God sends angels to protect us - and sometimes just friends or another human being.
While recognizing that some things are invisible to me, and still exists, I stay in the visible world, touching visible people, smiling visible smiles (hopefully :)). I want to comfort real hunger and real thirst, break real chains, - and in a way one can say that I have contact with the invisible and intangible by relating to love, connection, justice (and hate, isolation and injustice) etc. But my only real contact with the invisible world is by direct communication with God when praying.

I just visited Angkor Wat and it's surrounding temples. After a week of returning from Siem Reap, I was talking to a friend, and she told me about six of her girl friends who visited Angkor Wat. Once they return from Ankor Wat, all six of them had menstrual period non-stop for almost 10 days. Not sure is it a cursed or some sort of unknown infection.
