And, for the Buddhists in the audience:
| Entertainers dance in front of statues of
Chuchok, a greedy Brahmin who died in a story from the Buddhist
Vessantara Jataka from gluttony due to his new found wealth, at Baan
Chuchok in Bangkok August 21, 2012. Some Thai Buddhist's hire dancers to
give thanks to Chuchok statues after their wishes have been fulfilled.
It is believed that wealth and luck would come to those who believe in
