In short, the amulets of Luang Por Mui are extremely well known amulets, that are very rare to find, but very much desired.
Luang Por Mui Putta Ragkhidto, of Wat Don Rai was the third abbot of the temple, and the first one to take true responsibility, and develop the temple to become the great temple it has come to be known as in the Present Times. The temple of Wat Don Rai was built by the local folk with the generosity of Mr See, Mrs. Poon, Mr Gaew and Mrs. Hmorn, who were the owners of the land where the temple was built. Once the temple was built in its basic functional state, the folk invited Pra Ajarn Plang to come and stay and administrate the temple.
Pra Ajarn Plang stayed for a period of only one year, and then moved to stay somewhere else. In the year 2458 BE, the folk then asked Pra Ajarn Ploy to come and be the new abbot in his stead. Pra Ajarn Ploy remained at the temple for 5 years, but then decided to disrobe and re-enter the lay community. So the temple of Wat Don Rai found itself without an Abbot for the second time.
The temple remained empty for three years, until the year 2466 BE, when the local Buddhist folk begged Luang Por Mui to come and stay and tend to the needs of the temple. Since then, Luang Por Mui remained at Wat Don Rai, and performed many great works of restoration and development of the temple facilities. He worked constantly, never complaining when tired, continuing to build and develop the temple, converting a small regional temple into the large one of National Fame, Status and Importance it is today.
Pra Kroo Suwanawutajarn, or 'Luang Por Mui, was born as one of 5 siblings, and given the name 'Chueam', but later changed his Name to 'Mui'. His Surname was 'Mee Sri Chai'. He was born on Thursday 5th December 2432 BE. His father's name was Mr. Muean, and his Mother's name was Mrs. Chang. His family were farmers.
Luang Por Mui spent his childhood much as many farmer's child would do, and lived a normal life, until he came of age and finished his national military service. After he has served his country with the military service, he then was ordained as a Bikkhu into the Buddha Sasana, as is traditional for all Male Buddhist children in Thailand to ordain at least for a while. Luang Por Mui actually ordained twice in his lifetime, with the first time remaining ordained for a period of 10 years (exact date of ordination unknown).
But after Luang Por Mui had disrobed, he became seriously ill, and during the illness made a Vow, that if the illness would disappear, he promised to Ordain again and devote his whole life to the Buddha-Dhamma. When the illness then faded and disappeared, he changed his name officially from 'Chueam' to 'Mui' at the same time. Luang Por then kept his promise, and sought Ordination for the second time. This time there would be no more disrobing.

Luang Por Mui was a 'Pra Samatha' - an avid practitioner of Meditation, who sought solitude, and was very strict in his self control and practice of the Vinaya rules of Ordained Life. He was tireless in his duties to serve the Buddhist Faith, and the Devotees of his Region. Luang Por continued to perform one meritorious act after another, throughout his life in service of the Temple and Devotees of Wat Don Rai.
Luang Por spent many years wandering the forests on Tudong, until sometime around 2516 BE, he became weaker and ill. He then decided to return to Wat Don Rai, where the Devotees received him with immense celebration to welcome the return of Luang Por Mui. Luang Por Mui then remained in his old age at the temple of Wat Don Rai, until the day of his final passing on the 15th January 2517 BE, at 07:15 am at the age of 84 years old.
