Leslie's Soul Rests.. 49th Day, May 18th 2003
Orisun.com 5/19/2003 Translated by Paula
Yesterday marked the 49th day of Leslie Cheung’s passing. Florence Chan and Chan Siu Bo arrived almost simultaneously at the late Gorgor’s home. Many fans brought flowers to pay tribute. One fan in particular brought pastries from Mandarin Hotel for Gorgor to enjoy.
One loyal group of Gorgor’s fans wrote the card to their idol saying: “Dearest Gorgor, How are you? We believe you are living at a much better place and you’re much happier now. We intend to help fulfill one of your wishes, that is to reveal one of your many talents – to become a director. You are forever a Mega Star in our hearts. There will be no other to take your place!”
*The 49th day (Buddhist Way), signifies the soul that left the body is finally rested. A person's soul will be in limbo for 49 days after his or her passing before it settles down. It is counted by the week.
Here's how they name it : Beginning seven (first seven days), 2nd seven
(second week) and so on. Seven meaning the seven days of the week. Leslie on May 18th had his Last Seven, meaning the 49th day. His soul should be free now. |
