Why can thunder bring a positive meaning to mind?

In religious practice, we understand thunder as positive energy dispelling evil and affirming righteousness. Its sound suggests breaking gloom and hope for gradual improvement. That was the faith meaning discussed then.

During Taiwan's water shortage, Dao Jing shared praying to Mazu at home and joy at rain. We discussed rain's cleansing feeling and thunder's religious meaning. These were faith feelings and hopes.

We also specifically hoped rain would reach catchment areas. Mountain rain for a while may not solve shortages. Alongside happiness, consider whether it actually helps.
