Feng Shui Fraud: Thai Police Investigate Master Amidst Complaints

[snoop1130]

 

In a developing story, Thai police have launched an investigation into a prominent feng shui master after multiple individuals stepped forward with complaints, alleging fraudulent practices. This incident caught the attention of the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB), with Police General Kittirat Phanphet instructing Police Lieutenant General Akka-radech Phimonsri to handle the matter.

 

Venerable Wachira Wachirapanyo of Lanna Temple has raised concerns, warning his followers about this specific type of feng shui for years. According to Wachira, feng shui associations in China, especially in Beijing, do not endorse the methods practised by this Thai master, which casts doubt on their legitimacy.

 

A notable case involved a hotel owner who lost over 2 million baht in supposed feng shui improvements, following the master's advice to incorporate numerous mystical items, such as qilin, into the property. Wachira firmly believes the true duty of a feng shui master is purely advisory, not for profit through selling goods.

 

This incident reflects an ongoing issue with unregulated spiritual consultants who exploit those seeking fortune and balance through ancient traditions. Despite feng shui's widespread acceptance in Southeast Asia, Wachira, and others in the community, urge the public to understand the culture and history of these practices keenly.

 

The police aim to uncover the full extent of the fraudulent activities and safeguard individuals from such deceit. Wachira advises seeking out established and credible consultants before engaging in spiritual guidance to avoid being taken advantage of.
