What is divination? Is it reliable?
Divination is a wholly nonBuddhist act of making requests to deities
for information. How believable the information gained from the act
hinges on how hearty the questioner is in the procedure. Resonance
from sincerity and respect is not uncommon. Concentration in spirit and
entrance in meditation result in ready resonance, but, if commitment
and focus wanting, answers begotten from divination are less than
reliable as all things arise from the mind. For whomever unsure and
unable to comprehend otherwise, the wise way to go is stay away from
all acts of begging deities for guidance, soothsaying, or casting of lots.
