Historias de Albularyo

Set in the Philippines in the late 1930's, this story follows Tasio Isogon, a courier in the small, island town of Payawon. His troubles begin when a parcel for an albularyo, a quack healer, is assigned for him to deliver. As he seeks out the location of this strange Tay Banyoson he begins to uncover the truth about his family and the greater plan laid behind the scenes.

Beware of Balete Drive is a supernatural - paranormal short story about The White Lady of Balete Drive by Dr Elmi Zulkarnain Osman. Excerpts from the short story: "We didn't like the idea of tying Taufiq to the bed, but Tay Nacio said it as the only way to make sure he would not harm himself ... or us if ever. Tay Nacio then lit some dried grass in a bowl on fire. The smell was putrid, but he said it was to cleanse the air around us. He then started chanting over Taufiq's restrained body. As the chanting went on, Hady and I noticed the smoke in the air was now forming a shape. It slowly gathered in a corner and I don't know if I was probably seeing things, but the smoke started to take the shape of a woman with long hair." "With a firm tone, Tay Nacio then said, "Leave this boy and pardon him! Accept this as his token of repentance" He held out a tray of assorted small fruits. The screaming slowly faded and the room stopped shaking. Taufiq slowly exhaled and then something began to move in his mouth. Taufiq spat something small and black out of his mouth. We looked at it. It was a dead black chick. Carlito quickly scooped it up and set it on fire."

Before the Philippines were colonized by foreign countries, Filipinos have Babaylan who is equally ranked to the status of a chieftain (Datu). The Babaylan guided her people with her knowledge in food, animals, clothing, medicine and other ways of life. Sooner or later, the name of Babaylan was changed into ambularyo, manghihilot and other practitioners. They have expertise in healing with the use of herbs, amulets and other traditional medicines. Today we still have ambularyo and other medical practioners and they are focused to heal the sick and to treat various diseases. #herbal plants #cure #treatment #health #medicine
