Thai Buddhist Amulets of High esteem

Thai amulets, known as “Phra Khruang” or “Krueang Rang,” are deeply embedded in the cultural and spiritual fabric of Thailand. These sacred objects are revered not only for their spiritual significance but also for their historical and cultural value. The tradition of wearing amulets in Thailand is a practice that dates back centuries, intertwining with the country’s religious beliefs, history, and social customs.

The creation of Thai amulets is a diligent and complex ritual process, that involves a blend of spiritual rituals, sacred materials, and artistic craftsmanship. These amulets are often made by revered Buddhist monks, Ruesi hermits, or lay sorcerers who are skilled in mystical arts. The process begins with the selection of sacred materials, which may include powdered herbs, sacred earths, metals, and other substances believed to possess inherent protective qualities. These materials are then mixed with holy water and sacred oils, and often inscribed with ancient scripts or symbols known as “Yant.”

The empowerment of amulets is a crucial aspect, involving the chanting of sacred mantras or “Kata” and the invocation of spiritual entities. This ritual is believed to imbue the amulet with “Itti-rit” or psychic powers, granting it the ability to protect the wearer, bring good luck, or enhance personal attributes such as charm and popularity. This form of magic is known as “Metta Maha Niyom,” which focuses on increasing the wearer’s attractiveness and social influence.

Thai amulets can be categorized based on their origin, form, or purpose. Naturally occurring objects such as certain types of iron, boar tusks, and tiger fangs are believed to have intrinsic protective qualities and are often guarded by spirits. Man-made amulets, on the other hand, are crafted using sacred clay admixtures or metallurgical processes, often involving ancient alchemical practices.

The imagery on Thai amulets varies widely, encompassing depictions of the Buddha, noble monks, Bodhisattvas, Devas, and even gods and demi-gods. Some amulets also feature elements of the dark arts, invoking the spirits of ghosts or otherworldly entities. Despite the diversity in their forms and purposes, all Thai amulets share a common goal: to bring Buddhist virtues and protection to those who wear them.

The historical significance of Thai amulets is profound. They are not only religious artifacts but also cultural symbols that reflect the beliefs and values of Thai society. The practice of wearing amulets is documented as far back as the Rattanakosin period during the reign of King Rama IV, although it likely predates this era, especially considering it is recorded that King Naresuan maharaj wore a Takrut across his chest on a cord, which shows that the practice dates back many centuries more, as well as the Kru Hiding place burial finds which reveal amulets having been made 700-1000 years agot already in Siam. Throughout history, amulets have been used as protective talismans in battles, as symbols of faith, and as objects of personal devotion.

The Life of Luang Phu Nak

Luang Phu Nak was born on January 3, 2415 BE, in Ban Bang Poon, Pathum Thani province. His father, Mr. Nuan, and mother, Mrs. Luean, raised him with strong Buddhist values, which would later shape his destiny as a monk. At the age of 12, Luang Phu Nak was ordained as a Samanera novice monk at Wat Sarapat Chang, under the guidance of Pra Atigarn Hwang Tamma Chodti. He spent his early years studying the Dhamma Vinaya, the teachings of the Buddha, and honing his meditative skills.

The Making of the Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea

The Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea, a tiger forehead skin scroll talisman, is Luang Phu Nak’s most famous creation. According to Ajarn Spencer Littlewood, a renowned expert on Thai amulets and Buddha magic, this amulet is considered one of the most powerful and sought-after talismans in the world of Thai amulets.

The Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea is said to possess the power of the tiger, with its forehead skin serving as a conduit for the animal’s strength, courage, and protection.

The creation of the Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea was a labor-intensive process, requiring great skill and attention to detail. Luang Phu Nak would first immerse the forehead skin in holy water to soften it, then scrape off the fur, leaving bare skin.

He would then inscribe the skin with sacred symbols and prayers, using the Wicha Maha Ud, a powerful magical script. The skin was then wrapped into a scroll, tied with holy Sinjana cords, and lacquered with gold leaf.

 

Magical Properties and Benefits

This powerful amulet is crafted from the rolled-up forehead hide of a tiger, imbued with the sacred spells of Wicha Suea Tiger Magick. The tiger’s innate energies are believed to possess a range of potent magical properties.

The tiger’s forehead hide is said to be naturally endowed with these sorcerous powers, making the Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea an exceptionally potent and desirable amulet. Its magical properties are believed to bring the wearer great opportunities for advancement, success, and recognition, while also inspiring the loyalty and devotion of others.

The Wicha Suea Tiger Magick within the amulet is thought to amplify these natural energies, creating a powerful and irresistible force that can help the wearer achieve their goals and ambitions. Whether seeking to enhance their career, attract wealth and prosperity, or simply to inspire the admiration and respect of others, the Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea is believed to be an invaluable tool for achieving success and realizing one’s desires.

The Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea is believed to possess a range of properties and benefits, including:

  • Maha Ud Kong Grapan Chadtri: Invincibility magic, protecting the wearer from harm and danger
  • Chai Chana: Victory-bringing magic, attracting success and triumph in all endeavors
  • Klaew Klaad: Evasive magic, allowing the wearer to avoid accidents and misfortune
  • Maha Amnaj: Commanding power and superiority magic, granting the wearer authority and respect
  • Metta Maha Niyom: Mercy charm, attracting positive energies and improving loving relationships
  • Anti-Black Magic: Protection from malevolent spirits and negative energies, curses and spells.

The Legend of Luang Phu Nak’s Takrut

The legend of Luang Phu Nak’s Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea has been passed down through generations, with stories of its incredible powers and benefits. Devotees would often report experiencing strange and wonderful occurrences while wearing the amulet, such as increased confidence, improved relationships, and protection from harm.

This anecdote has become a testament to the amulet’s potency and Luang Phu Nak’s exceptional spiritual powers.

Rarity and Authenticity

The Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea is an extremely rare amulet, with only a limited number created by Luang Phu Nak during his lifetime. The amulet’s rarity is due in part to the difficulty of obtaining tiger forehead skin, as well as the strict conditions under which the Takrut could be created. Luang Phu Nak would only make the Takrut on 5th Lunar Saturdays, which are rare and occur only a few times a year.

Authenticity is a major concern when it comes to the Takrut Hnaa Bpaag Suea, as many counterfeit versions have been created over the years. To ensure authenticity, collectors and enthusiasts should look for documentation and certification from reputable sources, such as the temple where the amulet was created, or from recognized experts in the field of Thai amulets.

Secrets of the Loupe: A Master’s Guide to Thai Amulet Identification – Level 1.

While a casual observer might be perplexed by the magnifying glass, or “loupe,” as a primary tool for identifying Thai amulets (พระเครื่องและเครื่องราง ของขลัง), seasoned collectors and experts  understand the profound significance of close examination. The naked eye of the average person, when examining amulets under an eye-loupe, may be capable of appreciating the overall form and aesthetics, but most people overlook a treasure trove of subtle details that reveal an amulet’s origin, age, and authenticity.

This knowledge, and expertise in amulets which so many people seek, is only to be honed over decades of dedicated study. Experience, lots of reading, examination of actual amulets, as well as imagery in encyclopedic works documenting amulets, and the interchange between colleagues of the niche, exchanging knowledge with each other, forms the cornerstone of expertise in the realm of Thai amulets.

Beyond the Magnifying Glass: A Multifaceted Approach

The identification process transcends mere magnification and delves into a multi-layered analysis. The approach varies based on the amulet’s material composition:

Close Up 3 Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn 2515 LP Tim Blue Version

  • Forged Metallic Coins and Statuettes: These amulets require meticulous attention to detail. Examining the “fineness” of the metal, the presence of minuscule casting flaws (“Damni”), and the overall sharpness of the image are all essential clues. Identifying these “deliberate faults” left behind by the original block press mold helps distinguish authentic pieces from forgeries. For instance, the renowned Rian Rakang amulet of Luang Por Kasem, a bell-shaped coin depicting the monk in meditation, possesses five distinct block press molds, each with slight variations. Recognizing these subtle differences is a hallmark of expertise.
  • Sacred Clay and Powder Amulets: These amulets offer a richer portfolio of methods for analysis. Here, the loupe becomes a vital tool for perusal of at least three major factors:
  • Contraction Cracks: As the sacred clay dries and ages, it undergoes a natural contraction process, resulting in the formation of fine cracks on the surface. The size, pattern, and depth of these cracks provide valuable insights into the amulet’s age.
  • Muan Sarn Composition: The sacred powder mixture (Muan Sarn) embedded within the clay reveals a wealth of information. The loupe allows for the identification of various particles, such as herbal remnants, pollens, or even relics, used in the Muan Sarn. This knowledge, coupled with experience, allows for the recognition of specific temples or monks known for their unique Muan Sarn compositions.
  • Pim Song Identification: Once the age and Muan Sarn are confirmed, the loupe facilitates the study of the “Pim Song” details. This refers to the specific characteristics of the mold used to press the amulet. By examining intricate details like the shape of the Buddha’s features, the folds of his robe, or the inscription clarity, one can identify the specific version (“Pim”) created from a particular block press. This becomes crucial in differentiating between different editions or sub-models within the same amulet type.

The Art of Perusal: Beyond Visual Examination

While the loupe plays a critical role, the art of amulet identification extends beyond just visual examination. Years of dedicated study and experience equip collectors with a deeper understanding of various factors:

  • Historical Context: Understanding the historical period when a particular type of amulet was created is crucial. Knowing the prevalent artistic styles, cultural influences, and materials used during that era allows for better contextualization of an amulet’s characteristics.
  • Monks and Lay Masters: Familiarity with the lives and practices of the monks or lay masters associated with specific amulet types is essential. Knowing their preferred materials, artistic preferences, and consecration rituals provides valuable insights when analyzing an amulet.
  • Samakom Pra and Sian Pra Expertise: Leveraging the knowledge of established institutions like the Thai Amulet Society (Samakom Pra) and renowned amulet experts (Sian Pra) is invaluable. These bodies contribute significantly to preserving historical records and developing authentication methodologies.

Pra Kru: Unveiling the Secrets of Hidden Amulets

A particularly challenging category within sacred clay amulets is “Pra Kru.” These are amulets that have been hidden for extended periods, often found buried within temple crypts or unearthed from ancient chedis (stupas). While Pra Kru amulets can be made of both clay and metal (including leaden varieties), their long-term concealment presents additional challenges for authentication.

The limited exposure to light and air often results in a more subdued surface with a patina or encrustation. This necessitates a combination of expertise and specialized techniques for examination, such as X-ray analysis or careful cleaning under the supervision of a qualified restorer. Deciphering the secrets of Pra Kru amulets demands a deep understanding of material degradation processes and the ability to identify characteristic features that remain discernible despite the passage of time.

The Evolving Landscape of Thai Amulet Study

The field of Thai amulet study is far from static. New discoveries constantly emerge, requiring collectors and experts to remain adaptable and ever-learning. Technological advancements such as high-resolution macro photography and advanced material analysis tools are increasingly employed to refine authentication processes. However, these advancements should not overshadow.

The study of Thai Amulets of high end category, is as stated, a dynamic and ever-evolving landscape, with new insights constantly emerging as your experience grows over the years, according to your efforts in study, and contact with good tutors and mentors in the proper school of thought. Collectors, researchers, and experts in this domain must remain adaptable and continuously learning to keep pace with the rapid advancements taking place.

Technological innovations, such as high-resolution macro photography and advanced material analysis tools, are playing (or being abused by certain individuals), an increasingly advertized as a method of refining and enhancing the authentication processes for these sacred Thai amulets. But Calcit Testing, or X-ray analysis, while potentially useful for examining internal structures and identifying certain materials in older amulets, certainly has its limitations in authenticating Thai amulets, especially for those under 200 years old. In addition, only some amulets contain calcite, so this is not a measure for all amulets, in fact, it could, if it were precise, only be truly used for amulets such as the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang, which is known to have calcite present within the Muan Sarn admixture.

It is essential hence, to keep in mind, that these technological advancements do not overshadow or diminish the importance of traditional knowledge, intuition, and holistic understanding, which have been cultivated by seasoned experts over generations. The study of Thai amulets is deeply rooted in cultural, historical, and metaphysical traditions, and a balanced approach that integrates both modern and time-honored methods is necessary to preserve the integrity and nuance of this captivating field of inquiry.

Preserving and understanding this heritage requires a dedication to traditional knowledge, a keen eye for detail, and a respect for the limitations of modern technology.

What are Thai Amulets?

Thai Amulets range from a great number of types, with Buddhist amulets, differing from other types of amulets such as Brahman/Hindu, Animist, Necromancy related, and even magical charms which are empowered just based in the belief in elemental powers and herbal properties inherent within the substances themselves. Thai people, and of course not just Thai people, but people around the world, both those who believe in Buddhism, as well as those who adhere to occult beliefs, collect and wear Thai amulets, of many kinds, for a vast number of reasons and goals. These goals align with what amulets have usually been made for and believed in throughout Human history, and the use of amulets has been found in I believe almost every, if not every single Human culture that ever existed on earth. However, Thai Buddhism has its own specific pantheon of Classic Traditional amulets of high Religious, Spiritual importance, and which is also indelibly sealed on the national Identity and Culture of Thai Buddhist People.

Such amulets are purely Buddhist, and what most people would think of when referring to a ‘Thai Amulet’, such as the various models of Pra Somdej Buddha-Image Votive Tablets, or the 5 Regional Famous Buddhist amulets from archeological digs such as the Pra Somdej, Pra Pong Supan, Pra Nang Paya, Pra Kong and Pra Rod amulets, classed as the ‘top 5 Benja Pakee’ amulets of all Thai History.

In fact, they are merely academically categorized for official documentation as amulets of National Importance, from chosen sets of famously popular archeological dig find amulets, known for the region they came from, or were discovered in, and chosen to represent each of the five regions of Thailand. But in truth, there are absolutely hundreds of thousands of different kinds of Thai amulets, both ancient and modern.

Why do People Wear Thai Amulets?

Wealth Rains From Heaven - Maha Lap
For Many pure Buddhists, the wearing of a Buddha Image, or an image of their mentor and teacher (Guru Monk), is a way to connect with the Guru or the Buddha, and to remember one’s practice, and keep focused, and to keep one’s precepts. For others, Thai amulets, be they Buddhist in nature or not, are used for a multitude of goals, including protection, lucky fortunes, good business and monetary gains, power of attraction, commanding power, invincibility, charming speech, evasion, and many other purposes.

The Practice of Creating Amulets in Thailand and Ancient Siam

According to ancient military records, such as many found in the ancient ‘Pichai Songkram’ parchment Grimoires, Siamese warriors often carried amulets for protection and good fortune in battle. These amulets, created in various forms, were believed to bestow invincibility and ward off harm. They were typically bestowed by revered Buddhist monks, Ruesi Hermits, or Lay Sorcerors, skilled in mystical arts, and deeply respected by the community. The belief in the power of these amulets was so strong that it was passed down through generations across millenia, in what came to be known as the Buddhist Kingdom of Siam.

Thai Amulets can be categorized in various ways, based on their origin:

  1. Naturally Occurring Objects: These are believed to have intrinsic protective qualities and are guarded by spirits. Examples include certain types of iron, curved antlers, boar tusks, and tiger fangs, as well as other substances such as skin, bone, sacred woods, and other natural substances.
  2. Man-Made Objects: Created through the making of sacred clay admixtures using powdered herbs earths and other dried substances mixed with sacred oils and holy water, as well as metallurgical amulets, made with ancient alchemical practices, these include various metals and alloys, empowered and blessed to protect the bearer.

Thai Amulets can also be classified by their form or purpose of use:

  1. Worn Amulets: These are worn on the body, such as headbands, belts, or armbands.
  2. Embedded Amulets: These are implanted in the body, such as golden needles or metal talismans.
  3. Ingested Amulets: These are placed in the mouth, like certain types of bezoar stones. Such types of power stones are used by the Ruesi Hermits in Thailand.

Materials used for amulets include:

  1. Metals
  2. Powders
  3. Earth
  4. Various Other Materials: Such as special paper, resin, or clay.
  5. Animal Parts: Including fangs, horns, tusks, claws, and skins.
  6. Human Remains: Such as hair or cloth from the deceased.
  7. Miscellaneous Materials: Such as woven fabrics.

Amulets are also differentiated by their appearance:

  1. Male Figures: Like child spirits, hermits, or mythological figures.
  2. Female Figures: Such as the goddess of rice or other nurturing spirits.
  3. Animal Figures: Representing sacred animals like tigers, elephants, or mythical creatures.

Amulets  can also vary by the level of sanctity:

  1. High-Level Amulets: Worn on the upper body and believed to carry the blessings of the Buddha.
  2. Lower-Level Amulets: Such as those used for fertility or charm, considered less sacred.
  3. Hanging Amulets: Like banners or small decorative items.

The creation of amulets dates back to times before Thailand, Siam, or even organized religion, and is indeed a Global phenomenon, however, the present day continued practice of magical amulet making with unbroken tradition as a living practice, is hardly to be found elsewhere outside of Thailand, South East Asia and Africa, but with Thailand having its most prominent and national presence. Amulets are almost as old as humanity itself, deriving from times when natural phenomena and the elements were revered. Early humans attributed divine significance to the sun, moon, stars, and elements, crafting objects to embody these forces. As civilizations evolved, so did the complexity and purpose of these amulets, influenced by cultures such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome.

With the advent of organized religions, such as Brahmanism, amulets began to represent deities like Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma. These figures were worshipped for their divine power, which was believed to be channeled through the amulets.

In Buddhism, established around 2,000 years ago, amulets continued to play a role. Followers of the Buddha, who achieved enlightenment, created amulets to embody the teachings and spiritual power of the Buddha and his disciples. These amulets were believed to offer protection and guidance, reflecting the Buddha’s attributes of compassion, wisdom, and purity.

Hence, Thai Buddhist amulets serve as a means of protection and spiritual connection, evolving from natural objects to sophisticated symbols of religious and mystical significance. The terminology used to describe these objects varies, but they are commonly known as “amulets” or “charms,” depending on cultural and contextual nuances.

This reveals the extreme scarcity of any artifacts related to Luang Phu Gaew, and the high esteem in which he is held by Thai Buddhists. The photograph of Luang Phu Gaew is a black and white image that shows him sitting in a formal pose, wearing the traditional robes of a Thai Buddhist monk. His face is serene and peaceful, and his eyes are closed in deep contemplation.
The photograph is mounted on a red background, and it is surrounded by intricate gold filigree. The overall effect is one of great dignity and reverence, and it is clear that this photograph is a treasured possession of the owner. The rarity of this photograph is due in part to the fact that Luang Phu Gaew was a reclusive monk who shunned publicity and avoided being photographed. He was known to be a powerful and influential figure in Thai Buddhist circles, but he preferred to keep a low profile and focus on his spiritual pursuits.

Consequently, editions predating 2537 BE are highly esteemed and increasingly rare to find on the amulet collector market.

In recent times, there has been a notable resurgence of interest in the miraculous amulets of Luang Por Koon. These amulets continue to generate headlines with their extraordinary effects in Thailand.

Pra Pong Supan Kria Wat Phra Sri Mahatat Certificated Amulet

An all time ‘top 5’ classic amulet of the Benjapakee Family; Pra Pong Supan Pim Hnaa Gae, in Nuea Din, with certificate of authenticity in red sacred baked clay. A Master-Class status amulet of the High End Category of Pra Kru Hiding Place Ancient Amulets. The Pra Pong Supan amulet is known for its powerful Puttakun Metta Maha Niyom Merciful Blessings and Kong Grapan Klaew Klaad Protective Power.

This amulet comes with A4 size certificate of authenticity included. The Pra Pong Supan Kru Wat Pra Sri Mahatat is the Number One Amulet of all Time for the Province of Supanburi, and an eminent member of the top 5 Benjapakee Amulets of Historical Fame and Legend. The Pra Pong Supan of the highest preference is the Pra Pong Supan Nuea Din Phao baked clay amulet, made from sacred earths of the Supanburi Province, which were mixed with sacred magical herbal powders and bound into clay with holy water.

The amulets were baked until the clay became hard but smooth and dense like marble, which is a texture that modern ‘Nak Niyom Pra’ amulet aficionados call ‘Nuea Neuk Num Seung Jad’, which means ‘soft and smooth to the touch with highly refined features’.

There were also a very small amount (one potful) of leaden Pong Supan amulets found, which were found residing on the upper section of one pot, and are known as the Pong Supan Yord Tho, and are the rarest and most sought after of all Pra Pong Supan of the Kru Wat Pra Sri Mahatat.

Below; The extremely rare leaden Pong Supan Yord Tho Amulet

We shall be covering the documentation of the Pim Yord Tho in a different article on the pages of our website.

 

The method of baking the amulets resulted in a very hard and resilient amulet that does not break easily, which has contributed to its preservation over many centuries. The features of the Pra bordered edges and outer frame of the various models (Pim) of the Pra Pong Supan Amulet are highly varied, and cannot be said to fit any rigid form.

Some have four or five sided edges, some are completely cut to shape, some have wider edges, and others thinner edges, some are even others uneven. Some may be tapered, whereas others have the tapered top cut off flat.

The Pim is notable for its wide nose and slanted large eyes, with the tip of the nose almost reaching the subtly smiling mouth of the Buddha image. The ears have a notably humanlike shape with anomalous forms (‘Dtamni’), that reveal the authenticity of the amulet, through the inimitable idiosyncrasies of the block press, which are ever present despite the individuality of each amulet.

 

One thing most Pra Pong Supan have in common is the presence of thumb or fingerprint markings. Another classic and essential feature of the Pra Pong Supan Wat Pra Sri Ratana Mahatat is that due to being buried under the earth for centuries, the Kraap Kru earth residues which are seen stuck to the surface of the amulets within the deeper recesses such as the armpits and ridges between finer detailed features.

Below; Encyclopaedic work documenting the ancient find of the Kru Wat Pra Sri Ratana Mahatat amulets

These residues are completely affixed and one and the same with the clay, and cannot be removed by simply scratching it off with a fingernail.
The Pra Pong Supan is a perfect choice of Amulet for Ladies or Children, but is also a very preferred and popular amulet for Males to wear. We have before us a Sacred Amulet whose Religious Value is of course that of a True sacred Amulet from the Master Class Category.

The Pra Pong Supan amulet is an image of the Buddha seated in the Mara Wichai posture of conquering the Demon Mara in the style of the U-Tong Periodic Era. The Buddha Image is seated on a single tiered dais, with a large head, graceful arms and protruding chest. There are various Pim (Models) of Pra Pong Supan, ranging from the Pim Hnaa Gae, Hnaa Num, Hnaa Klang, and other lesser known forms.

The Pim Hnaa Gae (old face) has one single type of face model but still has many different appearances, because of the various stages of heat during the baking process, which caused some amulets to experience shrinkage or curvature, or other anomalous reshaping during the process. Some may even have similar triangular appearance to the Pra Nang Paya, another Benjapakee amulet of Immortal fame. Various other amulets were also found including the Pra Mahesworn, Pra Ta Maprang, Pra Patum Mas, Pra Pim Lila (many versions), Pra Nakprok (small and large), and the Pra Sum Rakang.

The Pra Pong Supan and Benjapakee Class Amulets are truly world class amulets that receives the esteem and faithful reverence of all Thai Buddhist People of all social strata, and which is considered part of the Cultural and Historical heritage of the History of Siam.

 

They are amongst the most difficult of all amulets to find at any price, and are mostly already worn since generations by the same family members as handed down family heirlooms of their ancestors. The rest lie in the hands of the lucky, and of course the high end collector showrooms of Thailand’s Amulet Societies and Non Profit heritage Associations, as well as the museums of the state and of major temples.

Above; Macro Closeup of the Sacred Clay and the Kraap Kru earthen substance affixed to the muan sarn from centuries of burial within the hiding chamber. It is said that in the year 1265 BE, the Ruesi Hermit Pilalai decided to make a series of powerful amulets with truly effective powers. At that time the ruler of the Kingdom Pra Sri Tanmasokea Racha was a faithful devotee to the four great Ruesi Sages, who brought a large collection of magical herbs, minerals and summoned the angelic beings of the celestial realms to assist with the empowerment ceremony on the immaterial planes.

The great Pra Maha Thera Bpiya Dtassasisri Saributra was present to preside over the blessing ceremony, and assist with empowerment and the hand molding and pressing of the Pra Pong Supan. The muan sarn sacred clay was given the name of ‘Nuea Rae Sangkwanorn’.

The great Pra Maha Thera Bpiya Dtassasisri Saributra was present to assist with empowerment and the hand molding and pressing of the Pra Pong Supan. The amulets were blessed during three whole months of rainy retreat (Traimas Blessing) as was traditional in ancient times and is still the practice to this very day. Once the Traimas empowerment was completed, the amulets were buried within the Chedi Stupas of Supanburi

The rediscovery of the Kru

In the year 2456 BE, a Tudong Monk was passing through and asked for the whereabouts of the temple of Wat Pra Sri Radtana Maha Tat. He asked a young boy named Pin, who pointed him in the right direction. The boy Pin heard later that this Forest Wanderer monk had hired some Chiinese-Thai devotees to dig up some holes in the temple, and that a horde of treasures were found along with a large repository of hiding place amulets (Pra Kru).

The Monk himself found a solid golden bowl which he took for preservation, but left all the rest of the contents of the Kkru within the Chedi. However, many of the Chinese devotees who were working on the opening of the Kru did take a large number of amulets rainging from the Pra Pong Supan to the Pra Gampeng Sork.

Once the authorities and Sangha Office heard of this, they ordered the Chedi Stupa to be hermetically sealed to prevent further theft of National heritage treasures.

Later the same year Praya Suntorn Buri (Also knownn as ‘Ee Gan Suudt’), who was the Minister of the Province of Supanburi invited his Majesty Pra Mongkut Glao Jao Yuu Hua to come and open the Kru Chamber. Once the chamber was opened, many ingots of solid gold and silver with Khom Agkhara inscriptions were found, and a large repository of amulets. The King was given a large number of the Pra Pong Supan and other amulets to his Majesty.

In olden days when the Pra Pong Supan was still very common and easy to find, many of the bullfighting arena players would like to grind up broken Pong Supan amulets and mix the powders into the hay they would give their fighting bulls to eat. This was seen to make the bull who ate hay with Pra Pong Supan powders fight more fiercely, evade the horns of its opponent and be impenetrable when taking a hit.

A very hardly known but ancient traditional way to Bucha Pra Pong Supan Amulets, is to immerse the amulet in perfume and chant Puttakun Tammakun Sangkakun 108 Times, then chant the Kata Pahung 3 times. The perfume can then be used to smear on oneself for Mercy Charm and Protection. If one wishes to empower further, one can chant the following Kata;

The lengendary Alchemical Maekasit Amulets of the Great Luang Por Tap, of Wat Anongkaram

An Eternal Legend in the Elusive World of Thai Occult Amulets and Magical Alchemy

Luang Por Tap, a Master Monk of the previous Buddhist Century, was renowned for his Mastery of Alchemy and Kata Akom Spellcasting Methods. He produced the legendary metallic alchemical alloy known as ‘Maekasit’ using the Wicha Len Prae Taat. Luang Por Tap’s amulet pantheon is considered to be among the most powerful alchemical amulets of all Masters, and is highly revered for Kong Grapan Chadtri Klaew Klaad Maha Lap Metta Mahaniyom Maha Ud power.

The Look Om Maekasit, Pra Pid Ta Maekasit, and Pra Pim Son Ha are the most famous and outstanding amulets of Luang Por Tap’s Pantheon. The Look Om Maekasit is found in various sizes, mostly being around 1.5 Cm diameter up to 2.0 Cm. Luang Por Tap made many models of amulets in Nuea Maekasit and Parort alchemical metals, some of the most well-known being the Pra Pid Ta Maekasit, Pra Pim Pang Son Ha, Look Om Maekasit, the Look Prort Gror, and Pra Chayawat.

Below; Luang Por Tap, of Wat Anongkaram

Luang POr Tap of Wat Anongkaram

The Pra Pid Ta Maekasit was made in several small design variations, Pim Chalud and Pim Tammada models, both of which were made in Pim Lek, Klang, and Yai (small, medium, and large). Each model differs slightly depending on which block press, and regardless of each block press, the amulets were released in two forms, ‘Baeb Dtaeng’ (filed down into a smooth and eloquent outer border) and ‘Baeb Mai Dtaeng’ (unfiled with wider irregular borders).

Pra Pid Ta Maekasit LP Tap Amulet

The Pantheon is also split into subcategories of Pim Dtor (Dtaeng and Mai Dtaeng, in small, medium, and large), Pim Chalud (higher more tapered angular model), Pim Maha Ud (bowed arms and legs model), Pid Ta Nang Yong (squatting model), the very rare Pim Gradum (button shape), and the Pim Siarn Hlaem (pointy head model).

Luang Por Tap’s Maekasit amulets are known to have different tones of color which shimmer through the metallic surface, ranging from silvery to some most highly preferred exhibits with blue, golden or greenish metallic sheen. Some of the most highly prized, rare, and sought-after amulets of Luang Por Tap were made during the time when both Luang Por Tap and the then abbot, Luang Por Nuam Puttasārō, were alive and collaborating with amulets.

Pra Pid Ta Amulets of the Great Luang or Tap

Luang Por Tap inherited the Wicha Hung Nam Man Montra Saksit for making Sacred Consecration Oil from his Kroo Ba Ajarn Luang Por Nuam (6th abbot of Wat Anongkaram). Luang Por Nuam’s amulets are even rarer to find than those of Luang Por Tap himself, but it is Luang Por Tap who gained more National and International Attention. The first edition Rian Run Raek of Luang Por Nuam is especially sought after and carries an immensely high market value in the present era. However, only a few were ever made, and so they are very rarely seen.

Luang Por Tap was also known to have been a close accomplice to Pra Sangkarach Pae of Wat Sutat and Luang Phu Sukh (Wat Pak Klong Makham Tao in Chainat). In addition to his expertise in alchemy and sacred oil making, Luang Por Tap was also highly skilled in the creation of sacred amulets, which are highly sought after by collectors and practitioners alike. His amulets are known for their powerful protective and auspicious qualities, and are believed to bring good fortune, success, and prosperity to their owners.

Luang Por Tap passed away in the year 2465 BE, leaving behind a legacy of powerful amulets and sacred knowledge. Today, his amulets are still highly revered and sought after by collectors and practitioners all over the world.


LP Chaem Amulet Wat Chalong Pukhet

The Pra Pong Roop Muean Sacred Powder Votive Tablet image of the Great 18th Century Monk, Luang Por Chaem, was released by the Gammagarn Comittee of Wat Chalong, for the Golden Jubilee Celebration Edition in 2539 BE, commemorating the 50th Year of Reign of His Majesty King Bhumipol Adulyadej. This sacred powder amulet is made in Nuea Pong Ittijae and features the classic image of Luang Por Chaem standing with the Bai Pad Yos Royal Fan, which is often used for classic celebratory memorial editions at Wat Chalong.

The amulets of Luang Por Chaem of Wat Chalong are held in high regard by Malaysians and Singaporeans who have visited Phuket since the colonial era. These visitors pay reverence to LP Chaem and the lineage masters by visiting the temple of Wat Chalong. His amulets are considered to be miraculous and are sought after by those who believe in the power of sacred objects.

Luang Por Chaem was born in the heart of Phang Nga Province, in the year of the Gun, 1827, during the reign of King Nang Klao. He was to become perhaps Phuket’s most internationally famous master monk from the 18th century to this very day. Officially in his Dhamma Trajectory, he became known as Pra Kru Wisutwongsajarn Yan Muni, but to many, he was simply Luang Por Chaem.

He was a man of great piety and discipline, becoming the former abbot of Chaithararam Temple, or Chalong Temple, and was held in high esteem by the people of Phuket. Unfortunately, there is no documented evidence of Luang Por Chaem’s parents’ names, as it was common for country folk in Siam during that era to forgo the registration of birth, death, and even marriage certificates. It was a time when traveling to the closest government office was difficult, especially for those living in the countryside, and as such, these matters were not of great importance to them.

Pong Roop Muean LP Chaem 2539 (Rear Face)

At a young age, his parents sent him to live at Wat Chalong, in the Chalong Subdistrict of Thung Kha District, now Mueang Phuket District. Here, he became a disciple of Father Than Kao Abbot and was ordained as a novice and eventually became a monk, studying Vipassana Kammathana Mindfulness Practice, and Wicha, at Wat Chalong until he became proficient.

Luang Por Chaem was known to be strict in the Dhamma and discipline, commanding the faith and devotion of the villagers in general. As such, he was later appointed as the abbot of Wat Chalong. In the year 2419 BE (1876), a group of Chinese tin miners instigated an uprising in Phuket. Luang Por Chaem’s disciples urged him to flee and hide, but he refused to leave the temple and escape. In a show of support, his disciples joined forces to fight to protect him and asked for Pha Yant Pha Yant Prajiad cloth as a morale booster. Luang Por Chaem complied with the request, and this group went on to win the Battle of the Triads.

The victory inspired more people to join the fight against the Chinese triads, relying on the Pha Yant Prajiad cloth made by Luang Por Chaem as a source of inspiration. The Chinese triads were eventually chased away from Chalong village, and the following year, there were no more attempts to rob the village.

Due to his merits in suppressing the Triad Rebellion, Luang Por Chaem was granted a portion of the merit by the Phuket Political Department. His Majesty The King graciously appointed Luang Por Chaem to have his ordained name of ‘Pra Kru Sangkha Pha Moke’, of Phuket to be changed, and that he should be awarded the official elevation of status into the High Sangha Priesthood as “Pra Kru Wisutwongsajarn Yan Muni”. He was conferred this name at Wat Chalong Mai (Wat Chaithararam). This means that he was considered to have accumulated spiritual merit, which is believed to bring about positive effects in the afterlife. This merit was likely granted to him as a reward for his contributions to the community and to Buddhism.

In addition to his spiritual merit, Luang Por Chaem was also awarded with various honors and titles for his services. He was granted the title of Phra Kru (monk with royal patronage) by King Chulalongkorn and was later promoted to the rank of Phra Khru Pariyattikhun (senior monk with royal patronage) by King Vajiravudh. He was also appointed as the abbot of Wat Sam Pao in 1907 and served in this position until his death in 1935.

Luang Por Chaem’s legacy lives on in Thailand and beyond. He is remembered for his contributions to Buddhism, his efforts to promote education and social welfare, and his exemplary life as a monk. Many temples and organizations have been named after him, and his teachings continue to inspire people to this day.

The Truth About How Success is achieved (or not), with Amulets Empowered For Accumulating Riches;

I would like to preach my concept of what to expect from amulets for riches as I have learned it through White Buddha Magic, and explain the nuances of how they may work to readers. I do this in order to increase the understanding of those who are having great difficulty with finances or suffering greatly from debt or bad luck, and who are seeking the assistance of magical power to bring positive changes into their lives and turn good luck into bad luck, poverty into riches.

Winnings Galore for the Meritorious

First, it’s important to understand that the concept of Thai amulets and talismanic charms is deeply rooted in Buddhist and Hindu beliefs. The amulets are created by monks or spiritual masters, who imbue them with positive energy and blessings. The amulets are believed to have supernatural powers and can provide protection, bring good luck, and even help the wearer achieve success and riches.

Incantations and Empowerments are often performed within Caves

However, it’s crucial to understand that the power of these amulets is not just about wearing them or possessing them. One’s luck received from such types of wealth accumulation amulets require and depend on the personal accumulated merits and good or bad Karma of each person. The amulet itself is merely a tool to enhance one’s luck and good fortune, but it’s not a guarantee.

Generosity brings its own rewards

It’s also essential to understand that these amulets are not a substitute for hard work and perseverance. No amount of magical power can replace the importance of personal effort and commitment towards one’s goals. Therefore, if you are seeking assistance from these amulets, it’s important to pair them with positive actions and a strong work ethic to increase the chances of success.

When choosing an amulet, it’s essential to find one that resonates with you on a personal level. It’s said that the amulet chooses the wearer, not the other way around. Therefore, take the time to find one that speaks to you and brings you a sense of comfort and protection.

It’s also important to understand the different types of amulets available and their specific properties. Some amulets are believed to bring financial success and riches, while others are for protection, love, or health. Understanding the specific properties of each amulet can help you find one that aligns with your needs and goals.

Thai amulets and talismanic charms can be a powerful tool to enhance one’s luck and good fortune. However, it’s important to understand that the power of these amulets is not just about wearing them or possessing them. The amulet itself is merely a tool to enhance one’s luck and good fortune, but it’s not a guarantee. It’s essential to pair these amulets with positive actions and a strong work ethic to increase the chances of success.

Additionally, the personal accumulated merits and good or bad Karma of each person play a significant role in one’s luck received from such types of wealth accumulation amulets. Therefore, it’s crucial to understand and accept personal responsibility for one’s life circumstances while utilizing these powerful tools to achieve financial success and abundance.

Pra Pid Ta Maekasit Hlang Hua Jai Pra Bpathamang – Luang Phu Bun Wat Klang Bang Gaew

An extremely rare Pra Pid Ta amulet of Luang Phu Bun, the Pra Pid Ta Hlang Tant Tu Sa Ma Ni, of Luang Phu Bun, of Wat Klang Bang Gaew. The Yant on rear face can be seen in the famous Pra Gleep Bua amulets of LP Bun, which were discovered some decades ago and found to be documented by the temple.

Not all models of metallurgical amulets are fully documented, but from what information is accumulated to date, it is known that Luang Phu Bun made Pra Pid Ta, and Pra Pim Samadhi Gleep Bua meditating Buddha amulets in Maekasit metals, and in more rare and fewer numbers, also in other metallurgical alchemical alloys. The Pra Pid Ta is rarer than the Pra Pim Gleep Bua, which were primarily all made from Maekasit, whereas the Pid Ta is also found in Lor Boran forged alchemical bronze alloy.

The rear faces of these amulets are found to have a number of different designs on the rear face, and in the case of the Pim Gleep Bua lotus-petal shaped Maekasit versions, 7 different models are documented (which does not mean that there are no other models made, rather, that documentation is a continuous voyage of discovery, but by no means the be-and-end-all of a pantheon of amulets.

Pra Pid Ta LP Bun Pantheon Book
The Pid Ta Lor Boran and Gleep Bua Maekasit amulets were never released in any official edition, rather mostly handed out by Luang Phu Bun to his devotees himself, when they would come to pay respects and make merits. The documentation to date is constructed mostly from devotees who received amulets in their hand from LP Bun himself, and showed their amulets, but it coud be, that there are much more than the officially discovered, known and documented 7 Pim.

Below;  A decades old publication showing various Pra Pid Ta of Luang Phu Bun

In fact, with olden days masters, one can almost always assume, that not all of their amulets were documented, as in ancient times, there was much less attention to documenting the amulets of every monk in every year of their lives. This is also why those authors who study and uncover new information, and publish that which is known are important contributors to the preservation of knowledge about Thai Buddhist Amulets and their Makers.

The Pra Pid Ta Khao Buang has many different appearances due to the olden days fcasting methods, and is still not fully documented as a pantheon. Not all models have yet been identified. However, for now, we can name and define at least seven models of Pim Pid Ta and Pra Gleep Bua.

Pra Pid Ta Luang Phu Bun in Thai amulet publication

Luang Phu Bun is said to have been a close accomplice, and often mutually visited with the Great Luang Phu Nak of Wat Huay Jorakhae, in Nakorn Pathom. LP Bun received the methodology and mastery of the Wicha Maekasit from LP Nak, which is the ancient science of Alchemical Metallurgy from the Dtamra Saiyawaet, used for casting powerful metallic magical amulets. For this reason, the majority of Luang Phu Bun’s Maekasit amulets have a dark black sheen to them, similar to Luang Phu Nak’s Maekasit. But in some very few exhibits one can see the see tong pla hlai greenish-golden sheen which is often also seen in the amulets of Luang Por Tap, of Wat Anongkaram in Nontaburi.

Luang Phu Bun of Wat Klang Bang Gaew

The seven major documented Pim are as follows; 1. Pra Pid Ta Maha Ud Hlang Agkhara Tu Sa Ma Ni (Hua Jai Pra Bpathamang***), 2. Pra Pid Ta Maha Ud Hlang Yant Dto, 3. Pra Pim Samadhi Gleep Bua Hlang Ppra Pid Ta, 4. Pra Pim Samadhi Gleep Bua Hlang Agkhara 4 Dtua (4 Khom Agkhara Syllables on rear face, seen to vary), 5. Pra Pim Samadhi Gleep Bua Sum Hlang Pra Pid Ta (Elongated pointed arch model), 6. Pra Pim Luang Por Dto Hlang Pra Pid Ta, and 7.

***Please note; The term ‘Hua Jai Pra Bpathamang, comes from the Dtamra Saiyawaet Magical Grimoires, but in Dhamma Sastra (Buddha Science), it has been falsely named by the amulet world as ‘Hua Jai Pra Bpathamang’ and lists the four syllables as ‘TU SA MA NI’ whereas if we list, the 4 Noble Truths in their proper order, and notice that ‘TU SA MA NI’, are the first syllables of each Pali Sanskrit word of the 4 Noble Truths (Hua Jai Pra Ariyasaj 4), then we can see that it should be ‘TU’ for ‘Tugkh; (Dhukkha – Suffering/Dissatisfactoriness), ‘SA’ for ‘Samutayaa’ (A Cause of Suffering/Dissatisfaction), then ‘NI’ for ‘Nirote’ (Nirodha – extinguishing of all external perceptions, and of Dhukkha/Dissatisfactoriness), and finally ‘MA” for ‘Maggha (The 8 Fold Path to the Cessation of all Suffering).

Lp Sanguan

A rare and famous classic Thai Buddhist amulet from yester-year; of the ‘Krueang Rang’ talismanic variety The Look Om Maha Sanaeh in Nuea Tao Pong Yuk Wat Mai Phai (sacred powders from the Wat Mai Phai early era), with Pong Ittijae powders, from Supannburi Master Luang Por Sanguan, of Wat Phai Pan Mer, released in 2500 BE, the anniversary of 2500 Years of Buddhism.

Look Om Nuea Tao 2500 BE Thai Amulet LP Sanguan

Luang Por Sanguan, was a very famous master of his time by hearsay, for his reputation preceded him, by devotees telling their stories of his powerful amulets, and the successes they had with them, and from his great merits as a monk. He was famous for Metta Maha Niyom Magic above all, and is known to have made a large variety of different types of amulets, for, as was often the case with 19th and 20th Century Master Monks, he was an Adept in many Magical Wicha. But perhaps the most famous of his Wicha was the Look Om Tao, for its immense power to charm and enchant.

LP Sanguan of Wat Phai Pan Mer in Supannburi

His many sacred powder amulets were considered extremely powerful, through Luang Por’s use of Sacred Pong Ittijae Muan Sarn Powders which were made by Luang Por Sanguan himself, over his whole lifetime trajectory, constantly rewriting the Sacred Pong Lob Yantra and repeating the empowerment on the powders. This repeated empowerment of the Ittijae powders over many years of his practice.

Luang Por Sanguan is known to have mastered all of the methods for all five of the ‘Pong Wised’ Sacred Muan Sarn Powders; Pong Bpathamang, Puttakun, Trinisinghae, Ittijae, and Maharach. He was especially known for his ability to mix these powders with sacred herbs and other ingredients. He would empower with Metta Maha Niyom and Maha Sanaeh Magical Power of Attraction.

Look Om Nuea Tao LP Sanguan

 

His Look Om became legendary for its Maha Sanaeh power so much, that it gained the nickname of ‘Look Plaek Mae’, which means ‘Makes Son and Mother do not recognizer each other’. This of course is a folk nickname, and is slighly rude, but insinuates that the power of the Look Om Tao, was able to improve even the most unlikely of chances, of charming a person who would otherwise not be interested in you.

It is known that Luang Por would always rely on his Pong Ittijae powders created over a lifetime of practice, to ensure the power within his amulets. This was because he had developed a special affinity with the empowerment of Pong Ittijae. Every time he would release amulets, he would make Look Om sacred powder balls from the Pong Ittijae surplus. Apart from Pong Ittijae, he is also known to have included Rae Saket Daw (meteorite flakes), sacred earths from Wat Ban Krang, and sacred relic minerals found at the temple of Wat Phai Pan Mer.

Close up of Muan Sarn Powders of Look Om Nuea Tao amulet

If we look at the Look Om of Luang Por Sanguan, over his life trajectory, we can see that his early era Look Om were mixed with other ngredients, such as sacred earths, herbs, betal-areca nut paste, channaroeng stingless bees nest paste, and powdered flakes of meteorite.

However, if we look at the Look Om which were made at Wat Phai Pan Mer after his years of Tudong preceding, we can see the sacred clay to be much more uniform like the clay used for his Pra Somdej, resulting in a hard smooth surface that is easy to recognize, even for beginners in the art of studying amulets. Their appearance is very uniform with equally high distribution of Pong Ittijae in each amulet.

This is because towards the latter part of his life, he did not go out on Tudong to the forests anymore to collect other herbs and ingredients, and would use his own Pong Ittijae. It is said that there is a Takrut Maja Sanaeh hidden within the Look Om, intended to increase power of attraction, and good business sales and customer count. Luang Por Sanguan would always oversee the mixing of Muan Sarn to make the sacred clay, and instruct his apprentice monks at the temple in assisting to press the many amulets which were released in each edition.

Close up of Muan Sarn Powders of Look Om Nuea Tao

It is officially accounted from many devotees who visited the temple, that they always witnessed Luang Por Sanguan inscribing Yantra every evening, using a Ruesi Chalk stick made from Yantra powders, to inscribe the hundreds of Sacred Yant used to make POng Lob powders, and keep reusing the chalk residues to make new Ruesi chalk stiicks and repeat the process, for years on end. He would constantly empower the powders he made with incantations, and prayers, taking them into the shrineroom for morning and evening prayers to receive the vibrations of the monks chanting. He would make Look Om himself by mixing the powders with prayer water and other mediums and roll them in his hand, and blow his spells into them, during his nightly withdrawal from the world.

Look Om Nuea Tao 2500 BE - Luang Por Sanguan Wat Phai Pan Mer

The Great Luang Por Pae, of Wat Pikul Tong in Singhburi is known to have often lauded Luang Por Sanguan, saying ‘Ajarn Sanguan makes very powerful Ittijae powders’. Whenever Luang Por Pae would have a Putta Pisek (Buddha Abhiseka) blessing ceremony, he would always invite Luang Por Sanguan to attend, and send people to go and pick him up and bring him to the temple. In return, it is said that Luang Por Sanguan would always tell his students that Luang Por Pae was a Great and Meritorious monk, and that if they found themselves in Singhburi Province, they should go visit him and pay respects.

Background Info on Phra Pidta

Since very early times in Thailand, Pra Pid Ta amulets, as well as Pra Pid Ta in the shape of Pha Yant and Bucha sculptures, have been made as objects of adoration and protection. Using the Buddhist sculpture and art that was accessible at the time, the artisans of that era developed a variety of styles and interpretations. Various Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, or Deities are fashioned into the posture of Pra Pid ta, or Pid Tawarn (meaning “closing the orifices”), to create the Pid ta posture (‘Pid Ta’ means “covering the eyes”). Pid Tawarn can seal 7, or 9 orifices (the number 7 is referred to as Pra Pid Sadtatawarn, while the number 9 is known as Pra Pid Navatawarn). The Phra Pidta amulet, also known as “the closed-eye Buddha,” is believed to bring blessings of protection, good luck, and wealth to the wearer.

Pra Pid Ta Maekasit Pim Hoo Gradtay Luang Phu Nak Wat Huay Jorakahae
The Phra Pidta amulet, represents a meditating monk entering into the state of Nirodha. Nirodha is the third of the Buddha’s Four Noble Truths and it refers to the attainment of the cessation of suffering. In Buddhist teachings, Nirodha is understood as the state of being where all mental defilements, such as ignorance, greed, and hatred, have been completely eliminated. This state is reached through the practice of meditation and the cultivation of wisdom, and it is considered the ultimate goal of Buddhism.

Base of Pra Pid Ta Maekasit Pim Hoo Gradtay Luang Phu Nak

The third of the four noble truths according to Buddhist tradition is defined as Nirodha Sacca (also spelt Nirodha Sacca in Pali; Nirodha Satya in Sanskrit). Sacca denotes “truth” or “reality,” whereas Nirodha means cessation or extinction. Therefore, the translation of nirodha sacca is generally “truth of cessation” or “truth of the cessation of suffering.” It explicitly refers to the cessation of Dukkha (suffering) and its causes; the resultant experience is defined as nirvana. Nirodha can indicate a variety of things, such as release, cessation, extinction, the end of dukkha, and “control or restraint.” The cessation of all unsatisfactory experiences and their causes in a way that prevents them from occurring again is what Nirodha Sacca means. It is their elimination, complete absence, cessation, and ceasing from existing.

The image of a meditating Buddha entering Nirodha, is representative of the amulet’s ability to bring peace and block out all forms of inauspicious events and bad luck. It is believed that by wearing the Phra Pidta amulet, the wearer will be protected against all dangers and black magic. The amulet is believed to have the power to block out negative energy and to protect the wearer from harm. Famouls for their Kong Grapan, Metta, Klaew Klaad, and Maha Lap Magic.

Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn Nuea Wan Plai Dam Pim Bai Sema Amulet – Luang Phu Tim Issarigo, Wat Laharn Rai (Rayong)

This amulet, is a classic original Khun Phaen Bai Sema early era design, which is extremely rare, and known only to those who have studied the amulets of Luang Phu Tim with great fervor, and to those older devotees of the area around Wat Laharn Rai. This amulet comes with Certificate series No 1449 of the 11th August 2562 BE Luead Ban Kaay Luang Phu Tim Amulet Conservation Association Meeting. The amulet was entered for certification, but not competition, due to lack of other competitors with the same amulet (This was the only one in the whole show).

Certificate Pra Khun Phaen Pim Bai Sema Luang Phu Tim

This exhibit allows viewing of all the fine details of the design, and is visibly authentic to the naked eye. The Muan Sarn Sacred Powder Clay is Highly Attractive to the Eye. An amulet of great beauty, and rarity, and in the highly preferred, and rare to find black Plai Dam powders, for serious collectors/devotees of the amulets of Luang Phu Tim. Perhaps a once in a lifetime chance to find this extremely rare Pim Bai Sema.

This exhibit is in excellent condition and well kept, with highly refined details and features, and most certainly worthy of show in the allocated competitions of its genre. The surface texture of the Muan Sarn Sacred Powders has developed the classic fluffy appearance that reveals high Pong Prai Kumarn content within the black Pong Wan Plai Dam Sacred clay.

Our proprietor Ajarn Spencer, states that this is the first and only exhibit he ever managed to find, during his years collecting and studying in the Chonburi-Rayong area around Wat Laharn Rai, and that he considers it perhaps the rarest one he has had to seek out. This Pim is a very well preserved exhibit, of a highly sought after Pra Niyom Master Class Amulet, that is now extremely rare to find, since the massive revival in interest in Luang Phu Tim’s amulets, after the truth of his early amulet editions, and the now famous Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn 2515 BE Edition ‘forbidden history’ amulets were revealed to the Public.

Most of the amulets of Luang Phu Tim which were previously untalked of, and unheard of, due to lack of documentation till recently, have been snapped up during recent years, since their dramatic discovery and appearance in the international public eye.

It is very rare to find Luang Phu Tim’s Nuea Wan Plai Dam black powder Khun Phaen amulets, because many people take a great preference to the appearance of the Khun Phaen in black color, and more so, because of the famously powerful magic found within Pong Plai Dam Black Sacred Magical Earths, which is also mysteriously magnetic. Nuea Wan Plai Dam is known for both power of attraction, and Kong Grapan invincibility magic.

This all-time classic Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn of the Great Luang Phu Tim, of Wat Laharn Rai, is one of the most famous amulets of all time, and highly renowned for its true power to bring prosperity, good business, power of attraction, and mercy charm to the wearer. The reason this amulet became so world famous and popular, even in the time when Luang PhuTim was still alive, is because everybody who owned one, recounted that business and personal success and prosperity had increased constantly and steadily since wearing the amulet.

Luang Phu made other editions throughout the years, and most definitely made between 2505 BE, right up to his passing in 2518 BE. The early era and especially the 2515 BE Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn edition, are now the most preferred of all, overtaking the 2517 BE ‘Block Raek’ series, which is now considered by most to have been made by conmen. We must however add, that the official document of permission signed by Luang Phu Tim for the Bangkokian Association Owners, did list all the famous amulets we know from this edition, but that the Pra Khun Phaen was not on the list, and omitted. This means that Luang Phu gave permission for them to make (and take most back to Bangkok with them to monopolize).

We believe that Luang Phu Tim began making amulets at least 35 years before he passed away (which would be around 2483-2485 BE), as most Master Monks begin distributing their amulets around age 50 if not long before (usually long before), and it is not credible to believe the Bangkokian Monopolists, that Luang Phu Tim only made Pra Khun Phaen amulets in 2517, the final year before he passed away (Impossible!). This is underlined by the fact that there is photographic evidence that Luang Phu Tim was already a notionally acclaimed Master, invited as one of the 245 top masters to bless amulets in the Wat Prasat 2506 BE 4th biggest blessing ceremony in the history of Thai Buddhism, and many other important ceremonies in the years from 2500 BE onwards.

It is hence impossible that if Luang Phu Tim was already being asked to assist with other Great Masters ike Luang Phu To Wat Pradoo Chimplee, Luang Por Jong, Por Tan Klai, Luang Por Ngern Wat Don Yai Horm, and the like, that he would not already have attained fame for empowerment with his own amulets beforehand. It is merely that the bangkokian Monopokist showroom owners and book publishers, only first ever heard news and traveled to Wat Laharn Rai when it was already almost too late, in the final year of Luang Phu’s life. This is also proved by the fact that these Bangkokian 2518 BE-Only monopolists publish books showing Luang Phu Tim’s first edition Samanasak Monk Coin, from 2510 BE, as he was given a Royally Decreed Title of Pra Kroo, which is an act of State Recognition of his merits and a raising of status to be a Royally Accepted and Decreed Monk.

Hence, if Luang Phu Tim was elevated to a Royal Decree status in 2510 BE, and count were made to celebrate the occasion, how can the Bangkokian Monopolists dare to claim that Luang Phu Tim only ever made amulets in 251`7, and that the only Pra Khun Phaen he made were in 2517, the last year of his life. This makes no sense, considering, the reason the Bangkokians sponsored the 2517 BE edition, was because Luang Phu’s fame for his mastery of Wicha Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn had reached their ears.

For it to reach their ears sitting on their butts in Bangkok, it seems to have taken at least 17 to 35 years at least for them to actually get the wax out of their ears. Lazy traders in lazy seats in lazy Bangkok showrooms. They do not travel all the time, and they were not at the temple of Wat Laharn Rai through all the years Luang Phu was there. These Bangkokains merely turned up in Luang Phu’s final year and sponsored an edition, and used book publishing to suppress knowledge of the previous editions they never got to monopolize (by buying them all and waiting till they get rare, sitting on them to speculate).

The Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn is a preferred choice of both the wise investor and devotee, as well as the perfect choice for those Devotees who seek the immense power of Luang Phu Tim’s now Legendary amulets. The Muan Sarn Sacred Powders of the Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn Luang Phu Tim, are renowned for their power, made from the skullbone of a Hoeng Prai. Luang Phu Tim’s Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn, Pim Yai, and Pim Lek amulets are amongst the rarest and most highly sought after amulets in Thailand, and are very difficult to encounter, due to having been made in small number editions, which is nowhere near enough to provide for the masses of devotees around the world who seek such an amulet as this.

One can see a very fluffy and rich texture of the clay visibly on the surface of the amulet, in reaction with the Muan Sarn Sacred Powders. It is a part of the amulet appreciation society expert’s method of authentication to examine and study the appearance of how the Muan Sarn Sacred Powder develops in surface texture, tonality and porosity of the surface, as well as the appearance of Luang Phu Tim’s famous Pong Prai Kumarn which rises up and through the surface.

We ourselves feel that all of Luang Phu Tim’s amulets are equally Sacred and Powerful in their own way, regardless of which edition or which temple he blessed them at, but we do, as do all Amulet Appreciation Fanatics, recognise the categories of preference within the hierarchies of different editions, which is for us one of the more subtle and fascinating parts of the study of high end amulets within the collector scene, and part of the fine art of learning how to recognise and value Sacred Amulets of High Preference and Rarity.

The Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn Luang Phu Tim amulet, has has been one of the most popular amulets in the whole Pantheon of Thai Buddhist Amulets of the last century, and of all time, and is now almost impossible to encounter commonly anywhere in any amulet emporium, except for the most elite showrooms, and at elevated prices. This Pra Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn Pim Bai Sema, is even rarer than the Pra Khun Phaen 15, and a highly desirable exhibit, that is among the rarest amulets in the pantheon of this master.

The Sacredness of the Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn is legendary and unquestioned in Thailand, and its magical power is commonly accepted by all. The Muan Sarn Sacred Powders of the Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn are considered to be amongst the most powerful powders to empower amulets in existence. This amulet is a wonderful opportunity for devotees who seek the true power of a world class amulet from a world class Master-Monk, and a wonderful Ongk Kroo reference study exhibit to peruse under the eye loupe. The amulet is a perfect and authentic study material, to train the eyes as to the appearance of the Muan Sarn and Surface textures of the Classic amulets of Luang Phu Tim Hence, the amulet is also a perfect ‘Ongk Kroo’ reference study material for students of the Pantheon, and will increase your chances of spotting an essential rarity at the right price, and without danger of risking a fakery.

The making of the Muan Sarn Sacred Pong Prai Kumarn powders Luang Phu Tim, came from the Wicha which Luang Phu had inherited through apprenticeship form one of his high Kroo Ba Ajarn, Kroo Ba Sangkh Tao, who was also his true Uncle. Part of the formula included Pong Prai Maha Phuudt, which was made from the Skull of a male Kumarn who died in the Womb, and who died on a Saturday and was cremated on a Tuesday. This is part of the ancient Khmer Necromantic Formula for Authentic Powerful Prai Occult Magic, as practiced in Ancient Times. It is said that Pra Kroo Sangkh Tao’s Wicha Akom was so powerful that when he spat on the floor, the floor would crack where his spit would fall.

Due to the fact that Monks are not allowed to seek and find this Sacred and Extremely Powerful Necromantic Substance, Luang Phu would perform Korb Kroo Initiation for protection against Black Magic and the Phuudtaa Spirit Phantoms, so they could go forth to seek and find the substances to donate to him for the making of the Pong Prai Kumarn. The Initiated Lay Devotees and Apprentices to his sorcery, would then wait for the news of the right circumstances of death of Kumarn Ghosts, and go out to collect the substances and prepare them as instructed with the Wicha. They would seek the permission of the relatives of the dead, to obtain the substances to enable the ghosts of the deceased to receive merits to free them from their Karmic residues by donation of their mortal remains to be made into amulets.

They would receive the ceremonial ritual liberation of their souls from Luang Phu Tim, who would speak with the spirits of the dead to receive their acknowledgement for the process of transformation through the Nibbana Sutra, and the Muan Sarn would then be prepared according to the Dtamra Saiyasart of Necromancy, to make the Pong Prai Kumarn.

Luang Phu instructed his apprentices and the relatives of the Funerals to take care not to incinerate the whole skeleton, but to keep the skulls to bring to Luang Phu to use them for the making of the Pong Prai Kumarn. This is one of the reasons why his Pong Prai Kumarn is so powerful, because it does not contain the skeleton bone powders, rather, only those of the skulls. As a result, Luang Phu Tim’s Pong Prai Kumarn has been recorded by experience of devotees to posses the highest Maha Pokasap Power of all Pong Prai Kumarn ever made, with Immense Metta Maha Niyom and Klaew Klaad Power, to induce Mercy Charm, Attract Lucky Fortunes (e.g. Lottery Winnings), and to Protect from Deadly Accidents and Disasters.

Luang Phu Tim Issarigo, is of course not only one of the most highly acclaimed and sought after Guru Monks for his amulets, he is the holder of the highest esteem in Thai Buddhist amulet history for Pong Prai Kumarn powders. Luang Phu Tim, is Internationally Acclaimed, for his famous Pra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn, and Look Om powder balls. As to the classic ‘Rian’ type coin image amulets which have become all time favorites, and eternally, world famous classic amulets of the high end variety. His Rian Jaroen Porn, and Rian Nakprok Paed Rorp are among the most highly sought after coin amulets of all.

Since his passing, his devotees and apprenticed monks, have now become the world’s top living masters for the making of Pra Khun Phaen Pong Pra Kumarn, and literally dozens of encyclopedic books, have been printed, documenting both this great master monk, and his classic amulets of high esteem. Buddhist monk coins with his image and others with Buddha images and other deities and imagery are amongst the most highly collected amulets and most expensive of all of the great Luang Phu Tim. He has various direct lineage apprentices, Who are continuing to progress and spread his most powerful and world-famous Wicha.
Of all of these masters, certainly the most famous, preferred and highly respected Looksit, was Luang Por Sakorn, of Wat Nong Grub, who is also now deceased, and whose amulets are fast becoming just as highly sought after. Following this Master one could possibly estimate the great Luang Phu Sin, of Wat Laharn Yai, Luang Por Rat of Wat Pha Hwaay, Luang Por Foo of Wat Bang Samak, and Pra Ajarn Somkid, of Wat Beung Tata (Rayong).
