[QUOTE="n1r0, post: 2522502, member: 99850"] It's called inception. Your pandit planted the idea of sending that particular child abroad into the minds of your uncle/aunt. They chose to believe it and act accordingly. The money/visa/application didn't magically fall from the sky into your cousin's lap to move out. Your uncle/aunt worked to make it happen. Here's another way to put it: if someone takes out an ad in TV & newspaper attacking your integrity, will people around you not believe it and treat you with contempt? It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the harm is done. That's the reason defamation is grounds for suing. Even a broken clock shows the correct time twice a day. If you make enough predictions, some of them will become true-that's just statistics. And regardless of the outcome of his predictions, he's making money everytime he sells an amulet/stone/ring. That's his business model. If they could predict with 100% accuracy, why don't they tell you to pay after the predictions come true. Did they predict that you are untrustworthy and skip payment? And why don't they maintain a public record of all their predictions that anyone can verify? Your cousin might have gone abroad, but there are hundreds of other predictions that never came true, will he answer for those and return the money he took? No, he cleverly blames that their stars weren't favourable, that they should do x or y to be successful. And when all else fails, there's the biggest excuse of them all: you are paying for your past life's sins. [/QUOTE]
