webfact Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Daily News Thai Caption: Getting the best (lottery) numbers Daily News reported that people in Thailand were getting very excited as they prepare for the latest state lottery draw. This is due on Wednesday June 1st, notes ASEAN NOW. The unexpected appearance of snakes in houses is one way that Thais use to forecast the numbers as such events are seen as auspicious omens. The latest of these happened at the home of Kanjana Jamroon at house number 7 in Moo 16 of Ban Bangsai village in Chachoengsao, central/east Thailand. Seven people stay at the house where there are children aged 6 and 3. Two two meter long "ptyas" or rat snakes were videoed making out in a coiled embrace in front of a bedroom at the property. Relatives and locals were figuring out all the numbers in hopes of coming up with the desired combination that would make them rich. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2022-05-30 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

And then there are people who are educated, and have an idea that their chances to win are relatively low, unless, of course, you buy (almost) all the tickets like the Aussie blokes years ago in the Florida lottery...

Popular Post Neeranam Posted May 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) Thai people, more than others, especially Westerners have a better understanding of the mysterious ways in which our universe works. Damn, people in Scotland even laugh at reincarnation. I used to too, until I was hypnotically regressed on a show with Uri Geller. For most in Thailand it's harmless fun, although like anywhere there are some who are susceptible to gambling addiction. My sister-in-law died last year aged 31. many bought that number and it came in. Coincidence or the cosmic joker?

The only people in Thailand that don't indulge in the lottery are those who have enough funds not to have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have seen they mostly worry about hitting the 2 numbers for 2,000 baht. Sometimes 3 numbers. I don't really see them looking for all 6 numbers. Underground lottery is only for 2 or 3 numbers also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just before I met HH the Dalai Lama in India, I took part in a mediation with a senior Tibetan lama. There was a Q7A session where a young Israeli girl insulted some Buddhist monks in the town of Dharmasala who ate meat. She said they 'were like pigs'. 10 minutes later we all meditated and she fell over and started grunting in a sleep. It was bizarre, instant Karma. The same Lama who had never met Westerners couldn't believe most didn't believe in reincarnation. I remember this every time I hear foreigners insult Thai Buddhism and monks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
