The correct answer is false. The amulet that Mrs. Chen hung on a gold chain under her blouse was for her to remember her past life in China.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
"Disguises" is a short story by Jean Kwok. Mrs. Chen - we are told right at the beginning of the story - is wearing an amulet on the night she gets lost. We are also told two things about the amulet: that it is worn for protection and it is the only part of Mrs. Chen's mother she was able to bring with her from China. Even though the narrator mentions a goddess who (the shaolin monks believe) lives in the amulet as if it were her temple, there is no mention to humans only kneeling before the gods. Thus, the affirmation in the question is false.
