Pra Khunpaen (Supann Buri) - collectors item!

This is one of a half dozen Pra Khunpaen amulets i found at Wat Pah Maha Chanok. Origin; Supannburi. Medium; Clay cement, baked. Size; about 2.5cm high. This is a traditional style Khunpaen made in typical Supann Buri method (baked clay, hand made), according to the ancient ways of making amulets. These amulets were also buried for some years to accumulate power, until they were left or lost in the temple of Wat Pah Maha Chanok. They have been identified as coming from the Prajao U Tong Era, the cement is obviously ancient as it is very hard, dry and smooth to the touch, which is what we call 'sampas phiw kon boran' in Thai, meaning it has been worn against the skin of ancient people - in olden times people did not encase their amulets, they used cloth or leather and left the back face to the air to touch the skin. This sweat and rubbing makes the amulet very smooth and slippery to the touch as well as hard and dry from aging over centuries

I am prepared to distribute a few of these amulets maximum. I once rented one  single one out, for the stupidly cheap price of 60 dollars, which now after recognition and identification cannot be done, for the funds from this amulet will go to help the building of Wat Pah maha Chanok, where they were found. These amulets let me find them for this purpose, i am convinced.
Contact me for details - only few in existence.

Pra Gru Tham Suea various Pim

Pra Gru Tham Suea Na Gae Na Num
These are the different kinds of Pim (mold) of the Pra Gru Tham Suea amulets i found at the temple of Hlwong Por Dte. The amulets were buried after being brought there by a monk who was travelling on Tudong, who brought them from Supannburi
 The original Pra Gru Tham Suea was reputedly created by the hand of Ruesi Por Gae Dta Fai, in Kanjanaburi.

These amulets exist in small and large (small are almost run out already). Apart from small and large size, the faces have two different styles; Na Gae (old face) and Na Num (young face with long ears). These amulets still are covered in earth that they were buried under, and i feel should remain so because the earth itself is Sacred too.

Hlwong Por Dte has allowed me to distribute some of these amulets to help funding for the completion of the 7 Buddha statues,as well as forthcoming projects. He lives alone in the forest temple of Wat Pah Maha Chanok, and has only 2 Buddhist homesteads in the area so cannot successfully go on alms round. He is finding it difficult to maintain the place alone,for which i sometimes go and stay to try to help a little. These amulets cannot be sold for too high a price, because LP Dte says that he doesn't want to ask too much. For this reason i can let them go for 50 dollars (Singapore), although they are of more worth than other amulets available for this price. In addition i have permission to reduce the price on more than one amulet. There are two bowls of them only, which means about only 200 amulets available in existence. For me, these are authentic amulets with a story to them. Each of the amulets is hand made, which can be noted by the varied markings and shapes of the back sides of each amulet,as well as each image on the front being slightly different too.

$50SG for one amulet, $90SG for two, or 130 for three. Any items added to this cart which were posted before this post, will not appear on your shopping cart, due to the face that the other posts are linked to a different paypal adress.

Tiger Skin Tagrud Luang Por Dtad

Hlwong Por Dtad (Pra Putta Wiriyaagorn), of Wat Chai Nai(passed away),Pechtburi province, is one of Thailands great Gaeji Ajarn. A great specialist in Tagrud amulets, and Phalad Khiks, he is the creator of a vast range of different Tagrud as well as other amulets.
His leaden Tagrud amulets are legendary, Some of his tiger skin Tagruds would also contain leaden Tagruds concealed within the tiger skin too. LP Dtat was renowned for his great humility, and modesty. He never presented stories of himself or made claims about his powers, or amulets.

I couldn't believe my luck as i searched all the amulet dealers and distribution points around the whole province for tiger skin amulets,and suddenly after almost giving up, i found all three of these in one go!



What i like about  Tagrud amulets is that one like these are still hand made and the Yant designs are made by the hand of the maker. In the case of cement amulets and medallions, this is in modern times ever less the case. So this is a kind of amulet that is for me, much closer to the mind of the master.

For those interested in how Tagrud amulets are made, and in learning about Yant magic, i recommend my E-Book which is now released as an online pdf download.

Luang Por Dte


Wat Sam Ngam is perhaps the most famous temple for Gumarn Tong statues right now.

The temple is famous for both of the last 2 generations of Masters who are known for their Gumarn Tong statues at this temple;LP Dte and his protoge LP Yaem.


This particular statue is an older one made by the first of the two Masters,LP Dte.
Kumarn Tong is closely connected to the Thai story of Khun Chang Khun Phaen, who made one by removing the stillborn baby from the stomach  of his wife

The base of the Statue has an amulet made from sacred Kumarn powder in it.The statue was made mixing cement with various magical substances;
Earth from 7 cemeteries
Ashes of burnt bones taken from 7 Meru Chedis (relic Stupas)
Earth from 7 salt licks
Earth from 7 sacred caves
Earth from 7 river mouths
Earth from seven fields or gardens
Ashes from the burnt bones of 7 dead children
broken pieces of temple wall
