Praying to a pair of striped tiger Gods

[Cecil Lee]

1. Singaporeans really pray to all sorts of GODs.

2. While walking past a row of shop houses; this shop owner evidently prays to a pair of "striped tigers".

3. In the first picture; he has a pair of Qi Lin on each side of the front pillar. And in the middle; a worship altar on the floor. Notice the two different pairs of striped lions.... each with it's mouth full ... symbolic of bringing in wealth.

4. A percentage of mediums somehow; enact or even become "tiger god" in some instances. Usually, these people hope to get great wealth.

Yes, I absolutely agree with you. I'm an US but I'm living in Singapore. So I a bit understand their culture and habits. They always pray to all kinds of GODs.
