THAILAND-RELIGION-TECHNOLOGY
This photograph taken on May 20, 2017 shows a Taiwanese client of Thai 'hermit' Toon holding "magic" iron filings during a ritual in the northern Thai province of Khon Kaen.
From communing with forest spirits to whipping up love potions, Thailand's cave-dwelling 'hermits' once conducted their supernatural endeavours with just ancient magic and ritual as their guide. But today's sorcerers are more connected than ever: armed with smart phones, Facebook profiles and business-savvy, a new crop of mystics are harnessing tech to cultivate followings across Asia.
