Your future is told on one of the slips

During praying to Buddha the believer shakes a glass with many rods, until one drops out. On the rods are numbers. The number of the rod which dropped out he has to keep in mind. At the entrance of the temple are in numbered boxes list, which one takes out according to the number to the fallen out rod. On the paper there is a prophecy. If this is positive, he'll take this list home, if it contains a bad thing, he'll ignore the list in the temple. A sort of superstition and most Thai people believe on it, although this custom hasn't any referring to the Buddhism at all.
