My friend suggested I see a Fortune Teller. I was working abroad at that time and was in India for a vacation. When we reached the place, there were a few people waiting to see her. They found comfort in the fact that there were others who believed her.
When my turn came, I went in with my friend who introduced me. I noticed she was sitting with her back to a large window so that the light would fall on us and she could observe us clearly. She talked to us and gathered some information about me which she could use later. Then she asked me to show her my palm. She said there is a dot on my hand which is good. I turned my palm around and yes there was a dot. Next, she said there is a dot on my foot which is bad. I looked at my foot and there was a dot there. She must have noticed the dots during the introduction. I could not understand how one dot is good and another bad. Should I take care of the good dot and scratch off the bad one? Since I had mentioned that I was unmarried, she said I didn’t have a steady job. I told her I have been working in the same place for several years. She felt uncomfortable and thought I was not serious. Then she went into a trance holding a pencil between her index finger and middle finger. She started writing on a pad and talking about my life. It looked like she was possessed by some spirit. She said I had made some progress in my life during the past few years. I had mentioned I was working abroad and she thought I must be doing well. She continued to predict some ups and downs but did not give us the paper she was writing on. My friend was noting down what she said.
She asked me whether I wanted to know my life span. I said yes. She again went into a trance and said 75 years, 8 months, 10 days, 6 hours, 12 minutes and 15 seconds. Then she said if you survive that, then it will be 78 years, 3 months, 7 days, 14 hours, 15 minutes and 7 seconds. If that does not happen then it will be 82 years, 5 months, 8 days, 12 hours, 10 minutes and 6 seconds. I was wondering how a person, who can predict to the second, could need three guesses. She noticed I was smiling and decided to scare me. She said someone close to me will die within a few months and also that I will have an operation. To avoid this misfortune I will have to do some things. My friend told her I am a Christian. She said that is not a problem, she has solutions for people of all faiths. She said I will have to give Child Jesus some sweets and Mother Mary some wine. She thought I would place these in front of the statues. I did not do it. I gave her some money in an envelope as consultation fee as suggested by my friend.
Many years have passed by and I have not faced the problems she mentioned.
