Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Supernatural Incident at the Hippodrome (3)

The elder sister said that the reason why Mrs. Shi put this problem on the Buddha card was that she knew Thai culture, in this Buddhist country, taboos and rules are everywhere, and Mrs. Shi thought that it must be the owner of the cloth shop who had offended someone after returning from Thailand, so she caused this trouble.

Shitai said to her sister that when you meet a monk on a sunny road in Thailand, if you pass in front of the monk, you must bypass the monk's figure. According to Buddhism, the figure of the monk is the monk himself, and crossing the figure of the monk is equivalent to crossing the monk, which is a manifestation of disrespect for the monk.

Before visiting the temple, you should check your clothing, and those who wear shorts and vests are not allowed to enter, and even those who have shirts tucked into their pants and sleeves rolled up on their arms are not allowed to enter the temple.

Visitors are also required to remove their shoes before entering the temple, otherwise, they will be considered as defiling the temple. Tourists who act rashly towards temples, Buddha statues, and monks are considered guilty of heinous crimes. Be especially careful when photographing Buddha statues. Do not touch the Buddha statue and do not climb any of the Buddha statues inside or outside the temple. Respect all Buddha statues, no matter how big or small.

Also, don't put the Buddha statue in your trouser pocket, Thais believe that touching the lower part of the body is a blasphemy against the Buddha statue. If you hear the Thai national anthem playing, you should stop your activities immediately and stand in silence. Permission should be sought before taking a photo of a monk, and a polite expression of gratitude should be given after taking the photo. In addition to the king and the king, Thai monks also have a high social status. Women should be careful not to touch the monks when they meet them, otherwise it will be considered blasphemy. When encountering nuns, men should also be careful not to touch their bodies.

Thais love red and yellow, and brown is taboo. People are used to use colors to represent different days, Sunday is red, Monday is yellow, Tuesday is pink, Wednesday is green, Thursday is orange, Friday is light blue, and Saturday is fuchsia. People often wear different colors of clothing on different days. In the past, white was used for funerals, but now it is changed to black.

Thai men and women are very close to each other, and even when dancing in public, the body is not touched. Dogs are taboo patterns in Thailand. Even among friends, they don't like to talk about personal issues. If you offend someone, smile, say "I'm sorry" to apologize, and fold your hands.

Before entering a Thai home, you must take off your shoes and not step on the threshold. If the host is sitting on the floor, the guest is to do the same. Don't cross your feet, curl your legs under your body, and don't expose the soles of your feet. To give gifts to Thais, it is best to choose packaged food, sweets, etc., and hand them to the recipient with your right hand. If a Thai person gives you a gift, thank them by folding it before accepting it. Don't open it in person unless the other person asks you to open it.

These rules are the hallmarks of a unique country in Thailand, and the master believes that the owner of the cloth shop must have done something wrong after asking for the amulet, or that there was something wrong with the amulet itself.

On that day, Mrs. Shi asked the owner of the cloth shop to recall the situation of asking for the amulet at that time, and asked him to think about what was wrong. The owner of this cloth shop is also a real person, he said, he also heard that the Thai Buddha card is very spiritual, and for business, he went to Thailand to sincerely ask the Buddha card to go back, at that time, also from friends to know some taboos, but this into the local customs, did not expect him to be so careful, or in a detail made a mistake.
