The Orang Bunian is a character from Indonesian mythology that has also managed to firmly establish itself in the mythology of the Malaysian people as well. In Indonesia's Minangkabau region of the Sumatra islands, the term orang bunian is often associated with the term god. The meaning of "god" in this context is different from that of Buddhism, Hinduism or any modern religion. In other words, in this case, the term "dewa" refers to a nation of spirits that live in the forest, near a cemetery, or on the edge of a hill.On the edge of the hill, before sunset, one can smell an aroma that is commonly referred to as "God's cooking" or "God's sambal." This is similar to the smell of French fries and is usually associated with the presence of the Orang Bunian. In addition, they believe that there have been instances where people have been secretly hidden by their bunian or gods. This is a myth that is quite popular among of the members of the Minangkabau community where it is also believed that these spirits have taken away their babies.The orang bunian is considered to be supernatural beings that are not seen by most humans or invisible to normal human eyes. They are described as being incredibly beautiful and almost identical to humans in appearance. Due to the nature of their appearance, the orang bunian is often depicted in modern depictions wearing high fantasy-inspired clothing or with pointed ears with strong resemblances to elves from European mythology. Some stories also claim that the creature has a lack of a philtrum, which is the vertical groove between the base of the nose and the border of the upper lip.Read the full article at https://mythlok.com/orang-bunian/
