Cau Chin/Uncle 9 Buddist Monk

This guy used to give ‘readings’ out of a small shopping center in the southwest side of Houston. Almost 15 years ago my friends parents became a sort of devotee and convinced my friend and me to go get a reading. We had to get there at like 3 AM as he only saw so many people per day but the line was insane and some of the people there were absolutely true believers. I remember he didn’t charge but you were encouraged to donate to his church.

My ‘reading’ was pretty unremarkable. I mainly remember he was playing with kittens as he was reading me. He told my friend he would get into a car accident the following September and that never happened. Kind of a strange experience and one I hadn’t thought about for years until recently.

Anyways I’m sure he’s not much different from any other cold reader other then perhaps a better facade. A cursory google search tells me he built a temple he’s in now?

There’s one reddit post about him from about 8 years ago but I was just curious if anyone else had any experiences with this guy over the years or knew anyone who did.
