"I was especially warned about the dangers imbued in commodities by a fervent pentecostalist preacher in his early thirties, who told me the following experience.
One day he had bought a pair of underpants at the local market; since the day he started wearing them, he had been harassed by sexual dreams in which he had intercourse with beautiful ladies, although in daily life he was alone. Only after some time did he realize that the dreams were caused by the underpants; having thrown them away, he slept undisturbed by seductive women."
