[...] A boy around 3-4 years old, wore JongGraben (cloth wrapped around as pants), round ball hairdo, topless and was holding a remote control toy car with one hand. He stood at the foot of my bed staring at me, I knew at that moment that I had hit the jackpot because he was the Young Goumonthong! [...]

Hi Laosfalang thanks for the visit. I grew up in the US, but I don’t find something like this weird at all, mainly because I knew about this when I was little living in Thailand, I lived there for 5 years. I find it fascinating, there are still some around but not as popular as the olden days.

True indeed. I can’t agree with you more. It is why I still able to go to that temple. I dont mock it. Yet I remain in reserve. I don’t want them to feel uncomfortable because they have a hard one on their hands. It is why I don’t go ask them to tell me about me. I feel its hard enough for them already. We can simply ask, “what is the lotto numbers tonight?” Then what? If I do that, I would put them on the spot

Hi Amphone, I’ve never heard of ‘Pi Ya Pa’ before, I always believe that “if you don’t believe, don’t mock,” but I’m very skeptical in what I read or came across in real life, there’re crooks everywhere, in every professions and walk of life and it’s worse in this than anything else because you can’t prove that it exists.

I think part of it might have some truth in it, but a large percentage of foretell is based on speculation by looking at your overall appearances, your eyes and facial expressions and charisma, which can tell a lot about you as an individual, and many times if you don’t have personal problems in real life, then you wouldn’t go to see these people.

Your guess is as good as mine, the universal problems that most people would have are love, marriage, and financials, and so what’s new. I think it’s not so much as foretell for some people that use the service, but they’d go there for psychological reasoning just as some would go see the psychologist for their everyday problems. This is just my opinion.

This story is mainly for educational purposes, to understand a bit better of the Thais and Lao belief, if nothing else, it’s mainly for entertaining.

I see. There is one monk that I know of. I have not seen him for a while. He resides an hour or so from here. I have not seen him in a little while. He answers questions, if you ask nicely. Fearful of the answer, I don’t ask sometime. He has “pi ya pa” with him. Thats how he was able to see things.

It’s called Lok Lort in Lao language; Mor Pee would use these ghosts to spy for them called Prie Gra Sip. Monks or fortune teller would also have Lok Lort, I visited a temple in Long Island, NY once in Dec.2000, and the monk was able to tell me exactly where everything was in my house, as if he were seeing it with his own eyes, the whole time he had his eyes closed, and whispering something to someone and they said it’s the Prie Gra Sip, baby ghost spirit of Lok Lort. I had goose bumps, just the thought that he might be sitting next to me.
