Er du interesseret i forvarsler, ånder og horoskoper, så er den lille korte rapport fra National University of Singapore, måske spændende læsning.
Ødelæggelsen af Erawan Shrine i starten af 2006 blev set som et forvarsel på de store politiske problemer Thailand sidenhen skulle ende i.
Du kan bl.a. læse historien om Thaksin Shinawatra astrologiske overvejelser, ud fra de forskellige forvarsler som han fik, bl.a. hvorfor han forlod Bangkok for at holde tale for FN i 2006, et træk militæret udnyttede til at lave et kup, hvor tallet 9 indgik.
The Destruction of a Shrine to Brahma in Bangkok and the Fall of Thaksin Shinawatra:

Abstract
On the night of March 21st, 2006, a 27 year old man, Thanakorn Pakdeepol, took a hammer and smashed the image of the Hindu deity Brahma – whom the Thai call Thāo Mahā Phrom – near the Erawan hotel in Bangkok. The destruction took place just before the political crisis centering on Thaksin Shinawatra, the prime minister, reached a climax – the subsequently discredited election of April 2, 2006. Because the shrine has long been the most significant non-Buddhist shrine in Bangkok, its destruction immediately led both anti- and pro-Thaksin supporters to interpret the act as an omen. In this paper I use the story of the destruction of the Erawan shrine, which I believe can be seen as a watershed event in the crisis, and of the interpretations of the meaning of this act to reflect on the crisis of legitimacy surrounding Thaksin.
