Resurrection
CRITICAL: NEVER use 投胎轉世 (rebirth into a new womb) or frame resurrection using the imagery of 問米 (man6 mai5, a Cantonese folk-spirit-medium practice of ‘calling down’ a deceased person’s spirit for consultation, still sought out in Hong Kong). Resurrection is bodily, historical, and once-for-all, not a spirit summoned to briefly speak, nor a rebirth into a new cycle.
