Dear Master Cecil/Robert,

Few years ago, a fortune teller advised me to do good deed to reduce the effect of bad luck come to me, the best effect is to donate clothes to monks and create a light at the temper and the monks will bless me everyday to prevent/reduce bad luck hit me in the future. He said that those monks must be powerful enough in order to get the best effect & the best place is in Thailand & the cost of putting on a light is one dollar per day. I'm in doubt whether it is true or effective. Hope you can advise me on this.

In fact, I have had an abortion previously due to uncontrollable condition and I've been feeling quilty over the years. My friend advised me to do praying at the temper every 7th lunar month of the year to avoid spirit attach to me. Will this help?

May I clarify whether to give donation to those in need will help to reduce the effect of bad luck coming?

Thank you.

Dear Anon,

Actually, in my opinion, charity always begins at home

It does not need to be real money but rather, good family bonding and relationships are often the key success factor which is = the human luck factors.

Of course, I don't want to sound so cruel as to say that we must always give to charity. But, what I meant that we do all sorts of charity work (already for free) for our immediate family, First.

All those things about not giving to the temple etc.. or having repercussions are more of "threats" than anything else. If people are good, generally, don't curse at others. Especially if they are good monks.

There is no harm praying but as mentioned above, it should not be because of induced "fear" that we go to pray.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
