A pristinely kept and extremely rare Rian Mangorn Koo Nuea Nava Loha Pim Pised Dtok Sorng Code Ma Wat Pha Nong Lom Run Sao Ha Maha Sethee 5th Lunar Saturday Blessing Ceremony Edition Guru Monk Coin, released in 2543 BE, to raise funds for the Kuti Songk Monks Huts and improve the facilities at the temple of Wat Pha Nong Lom.
This model of Rian Mangorn Koo twin dragons Monk Coin is a very rare Pim Pised (Niyom preferred) and differs from the majority of Rian Mangorn Koo Wat Pha Nong Lom Edition coins in Nava Loha, because of the double code MA stamp. Most coins of the Nava Loha series made for Wat Pha Nong Lom have only a single code Ma Stamp (on the Sangkati chest sash of the robe of Luang Phu), and only the Pim Pised special models received double code stamps. Only very few (unknown number) were distributed with double code stamp, making this not only a sacred, powerful master class amulet, but also a rare collectors piece.
The Rian Mangorn Koo of Luang Phu Hmun is, as are all of his amulets, known for the power of Jaroen Lap Wealth Increasement, and Lucky Fortunes, as well as for their Miraculous Protective Powers. Those born in the year of the dragon love to Bucha this amulet especially, for the obvious reason of the double dragon guardians.
For those with lower budgets, who seek power above collectability and rarity, we recommend to seek the Rian Mangorn Nuea Tong Daeng or Nava Loha single Code Ma, of the same edition, which carries a lower price than this special Nava Loha Pim Pised Gammagarn double code collectors edition model.

The Wonders of Dawadeungsa Heaven
In the Dawadeungsa Realm, there are various Amazing Legends, for example, there is a Lake with the Pra Julamani Chedi, with a Bparichadta Flower, which blooms only once every Hundred Years. When the tree flowers, the bloom glows with a bright aura of light which reaches as far as Eight Hundred Thousand Wa into the distance.
The Dawadeungsa Realm, also called Trai Treungs, or Dawatingsa Bhumi, gets its name from the fact that it is the Residence of 33 different Powers, or Deva Lords, who are ruled by Pra Amarintratirach (Pra Intr). Notice the parallel between the 33 heads of Erawan and the 33 Deva Lords under the Rule of Pra Intr.
The Name Dawatingsa Bhumi (pronounced 'Dtaawa Dtingsaa Poom' in Thai), means 'The Land of the 33 Deities'. These 33 represent Pra Intr himself, and 32 of his Companions. The legend tells that, as Pra Intr was still born on Earth as a Brahman called Makamanop, he invited 32 of his colleagues to join him in Meritorious accumulation of good deeds. They built public refuges, roads, and thiings which were of benefit to the people. They practiced the 'Sadtabpathaanawadtr', or, seven forms of regular practices;
1. Care for and treat ones parents with respect
2. Do not disrespect the Older Generation in the Household 3. Speak kind and politely
4. Do not speak hurtfully to, or be critical of others.
5. Do not complain often
6. Be Honest and Trustworthy always
7. Control one's own anger
Makamanop spent his life doing good deeds and keeping these Moral Virtues intact, and when he died, he reincarnated in the Dawadeungsa Heaven. In this heaven, there were in fact already some Angelic Beings existent (called the Naewasika Taepabudtr), who saw the arrival of Makamanop and his entourage of 32 friends, and brought a large container of Kantabala nectar to drink, offering half of it to Makananop in greeting.
But Makananop did not desire to drink any, because this nectar had an intoxicating effect , so he told his people to not drink any. So then the Angels who had already lived in this Realm, began to drink all of the nectar themselves. They soon became very intoxicated and lost their common sense and became very obnoxious, so Makamanop grabbed them all and flung them down from the Dawadeungsa Realm, because he did not wish to live with them.
He then declared himself as Lord of the Realm and ruled over his entourage of thirty two Devas. This was when he received the name of Somdej Pra Amarintaratirach (The Lord with 32 Companions). This is also the Meaning of the word 'Dawadeungsa', namely 'The Heaven that is the Home of the 33 Devas'.
