DrTuner Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hmm. Isn't there supposed to be a bank account for donations in the screenshot? That's the usual MO for these sort of folks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Told my mom one day that she saw her in an accident, she saw her in the hospital with something around her neck but she was laughing. Also said she saw her in a new house. The next day mom and dad were in a car accident. Mom sprained her neck, had to have a brace, and in the hospital she made good friends with a lady, and they were always laughing together....couple months later they bought a new cottage at the beach....hard to get that right, just saying. one born everyday......just saying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Making the prediction may have been easy. Achieving a status where anyone gave a hill of beans what he predicted was the mean feat. That's why it doesn't matter that anyone on here could have made the same prediction. Nobody cares. Well said. Thailand is a Buddhist country and in many ways it helps to promote positive thinking among its followers. There’s not a whole lot of negative things one can really say abou it’s core teachings, unlike many western ideologies. I think that a lot of people on here could definitely use some of that given the amount of depressing viewpoints that are expressed in every thread.

Popular Post Bluespunk Posted July 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2018 10 hours ago, electric said: The kids were found by the incredible efforts of the rescue teams. Nobody really doubts that. What this guy predicted on Day 6, was that the kids would be found by Monday Day 9. We live in a country that's right into superstition and beliefs that many of us simply don't understand. In that context, he offered plenty of Thai's some spiritual hope in a deteriorating situation. He turned out to be right. I don't believe any of the superstitious beliefs that my Thai family shares, however, if it works for them, then that's ok by me. I think it's wrong to ridicule this guy for being right, just because we don't believe his particular faith. It’s never wrong to mock fortune tellers. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khlongtoey Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 should just close this topic, not OK to insult any monk/s in LOS IMO I did enjoy that there was some local hilltribe intervention as well, having to do with bleeding it, placing it's head on an alter and taking it home to boil to read its intestines :) http://www.nationmultimedia.com/detail/national/30349134 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AhFarangJa Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Pity he did not predict them all entering the cave in the first place, then he could have intervened to stop them........Oh, sorry, that would not get him any publicity would it......It is amazing how low some people will go to garner fame on the backs of other peoples suffering, and what makes it worse is that he is using young children to do it.......Disgusting.....

Barnet Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 He braved the monsoons..... He predicted they would be found in one or two days.... Are these believers the same ones saying the cave was haunted? The same cave that represents a lover who committed suicide because her lover was killed by her father. That if you stand back and look from a distance you can see her image. So to my knowledge and from experience (I am mostly ignorant to what they are supposed to be) a Monk is a man of simple ways and some sort of spiritual enlightenment. He represents the community and hope etc. Peaceful, humble, calm and honest.......This is, to my knowledge, somewhere near what he is supposed to be, whether reality tells me otherwise or not is irrelevant. So.......since when did he become Nostradamus in a <deleted> cape! Some local sees a bit of publicity for himself and gets lucky with a, let's be honest, crap prediction. If he told these cretins that believe him that the moon is giant white Thai fish ball they'd believe him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
