"Balundo" is a word in HILIGAYNON
balúndò - Change, transmutation,
transformation, metamorphosis; to
transform—, change—, turn—, fish into
meat, cats into birds, wood into stone, etc.
A superstitious belief has it, that the
"áswang” can do such things. Ang ísdà
nabalúndò sa kárne. The fish was changed
into meat. Nabalundoán siá sing kárne. He
had some transformed, or mysterious meat
placed before him. Binalundoán siá sing
ísdà. He was given mysterious fish
(something transformed into fish). Ang
kuríng ginbalúndò sang manogbalúndò sa
píspis. The wizard turned the cat into a
bird. (cf. bálhin, bályo, báylo).
And no wonder; for the new technique of "subliminal projection," as it was called, was intimately associated with mass entertainment, and in the life of civilized human beings massed entertainment now plays a part comparable to that played in the Middle Ages be religion.
WORD SUGGESTIONS
A pious man who had reached the age of 105 suddenly stopped going to synagogue. Alarmed by the old fellow's absence after so many years of faithful attendance the Rabbi went to see him. He found him in excellent health, so the Rabbi asked, "How come after all these years we don't see you at services anymore?"The old man looked around and lowered his voice. "I'll tell you, Rabbi," he whispered. "When I got to be 90, I expected God to take me any day. But then I got to be 95, then 100, then 105. So I figured that God is very busy and must've forgotten about me, and I don't want to remind Him!"
