Dear Dao bums, I've been reading this blog on daoist sorcery on/off for a few years. There's a lot of interesting info on there. The "main thing" is that the teacher running the site talks about using Ku Man Tong to win the local lottery in Singapore. Honestly I never really took it seriously, I just thought it was kind of hilarious that someone would spend so much time and energy spiritually on something which seems so borderline useless - why not just make money in a normal way? I know Singapore is a well-developed country, surely it would make more sense to work your way up career-wise or start your own business instead of trying to win the lottery. But again, I know for sure I'm personally biased against so many things in life due to religious/conservative upbringing - eating meat, gambling, drinking alcohol, illicit sex, these were considered the end of the world morally and karmically, and a sure-fire way to self-destruction. However, now that I'm grown I see that these things are seen as completely "normal" by a lot of people, as no big deal. "Gambling Gods" and talismans are even a thing in Chinese Magic. So I work to let go of all this conditioning and just be open. Anyway, I just wanted to ask you; did any of you ever try contacting this guy? If yes, what was your experience with him? (him as a teacher, as a person, and of course whether his magic works). Here's the link to his blog: https://taoist-sorcery.blogspot.com/2025/03/my-fate-life-is-up-to-me-not-god-heaven.html I do think he seems quite sympathetic and well-informed in most of his posts, including the one I linked above. Let me know if any of you has experience with him
