How to distinguish between true and false monks and fortune tellers?

Amitabha, you'd better not trust street fortune tellers. Your fate is in your own hands.

As for monks, it really doesn't matter whether they are true or false. Now that he is a monk, we support the Buddha and make our own fortune.

But there are also methods of identification.

1. From the clothing point of view, monks must wear robes when they go out (at present, most people who sell amulets outside are wearing lay clothes, not playing with King Kong pushing rocks, but monks playing with King Kong pushing rocks or wearing big socks. In addition, the monk's short coat is double collar, and the layman's clothes are single collar.

2. Monks are forbidden to ask for money (including tantric lamas). If you don't bow down to the real monk, he won't ask you for support (money), let alone ask others for money. Anyone who asks for money is basically wrong.

Monks can only eat food, and it is stipulated that they can eat it up to 7 times a day. If they don't, they can't beg any more.

Monks are not allowed to do divination for others.
