today i went to temple and i saw a group of islam tourists, very likely from middle east because of the features.

so the tour guide explained about the temple's story, then the tourist ask what are those containers with sticks for? why are the visitors shaking the containers with sticks?

upon explaining, they got curious and started to shake the sticks and get their predictions.

luckily, it happened in chinese temple, if not a lot pembaris later.

end of story.
