Somdej Pim Sae Yid 2470 Luang Por Liam Wat Si Ruang Bun

Pra Somdej Sae Yid Khang Yant Unalome Ancient Buddha Amulet, seated on 13 Tiered Dais, with split torso design (Ok Wee), and 'Hak Sork' (broken elbows) an extremely rare and classic Sacred Votive tablet from Olden days Master Luang Phu Liam of Wat Sri Ruang Bun, and is an esteemed member of the Dtamra Pra Somdej of Master Class Status.

The image, and the aspects of the Muan Sarn Sacred Powders, have the inimitable features of the style of amulets which are so highly recognisable, as those of Luang Phu Liam, of Wat Sri Ruang Bun. The slim torso, has a split all the way down the middle (Ok Wee) and slanted curved elliptical elongated ears (Hoo Bai Si).

Luang Por Liam of Wat Sri Ruang Bun is a monk whose life story is not so very well recorded, because he was one of the gaeji Ajarn of Olden days, in times when it was still not common practice to record the Biographies of Monks, but from gathering info from many different books and articles, it is possible to piece together the most important facts.

Luang Phu Liam was the Abbot of Wat Sri Ruang Bun between 2457 and 2480 BE, after which he retired from the duties of Abbot due to old age and and lived until the year 2488 BE when he died at the age of 82 . Luang Phu Liam was born in theIsan country, who after his ordination as a monk, began the practice of Tudong solitary wandering, and wandered westwards until he reached Nontaburi.

It was here that Luang Phu Liam stopped, to dwell in the area close by to Wat Sri Ruang Bun, and this is how he came to stay there. He was known for his diligence and self controlled practice of Vinaya in the 227 Rules of practice of Ordained Bhikkhus

The local devotees of Wat Sri Rueang Bun had great reverence for Luang Phu Liam, for his merciful abilities in Traditional Medicine and Healing Practices. At the time that Luang Phu Liam came to stay at Wat Sri Ruang Bun, the temple was in disarray, with hardly any monks staying there, and the temple had no Abbot.

So the local folk beseeched Luang Phu Liam to stay there permanently and be the Abbot. Luang Phu was about 55 years old at that time, and Wat Sri Ruang Bun was a very peaceful small temple with open spaces, which fitted with his advanced practices of serenity and silence.

And so, Luang Phu accepted the offer to remain at Wat Sri Rueang Bun. Luang Phu became very renowned for his abilities to spray holy water and banish ghosts and demons who had possessed people, and even victims of rabid dog bites, who were howling with madness, would be instantly healed when Luang Phu performed his holy water ceremony on them.

As time passed, Luang Phu began to restore and build up the temple, and the people's faith and reverence for his selfless deeds grew and grew, and devotees began to increase steadily, coming to help Luang Phu in the development of the temple. As Luang Phu saw so many devotees come to help with the work and to make donations, he felt the need to give them something in return for their help, and to protect them and bring them good fortunes.

So Luang Phu began to make Pong Lop Sacred Yantra powders and performed his most powerful Metta Maha Niyom Magic to empower them, and mixed them according to the Dtamra Pra Somdej with Plueak Hoy seashell powders, to add Kong Grapan Chadtri power along with Kluay Nam Wa bananas, in the same formula used by Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri of Wat Rakang Kositaram.

He then pressed these powders into the form of amulets, which consisted of 20 or so different design models. The artisans who made the 'Mae Pim' block press molds were expert in their work and created the different designs based on the same form as was used by the Great Luang Phu Poo of Wat Intra, and also basing some designs on models from the Dtamra Wat Chalerm Pragiart, and the amulets of Luang Por Kram of Wat Pra Ngern.

In addition, a few original design models were created, that are particular to Luang Phu Liam, which completed this pantheon of 20 or so amulets. The amulets were finished in 2470 BE, and Luang Phu began to empower them with blessings continuously for the whole ten years of his time as Abbot, and to hand them out slowly to the devotees over the years which came to pass from then onwards. Luang Phu did not bury any of the amulets in Gru Chamberand kept them in the open air always, and so all of his amulets have a very

The sacredness of these almost Century old amulets are indisputable for their great age, and the fact that Luang Phu Liam made them for the purpose of free distribution to the devotees, with completely pure intentions, giving them his most diligent efforts and intense empowerment. The amulets of Luang Phu Liam are an immensely attractive alternative to the much more expensive amulets of Luang Phu Poo of Wat Intrawiharn (Bang Khun Prohm), being of great age and with complete adherence to the Dtamra Pra Somdej.


About Buddhist Amulets

Buddhist amulets are a type of talisman that is used to create a protective shield against evil. They are usually worn as necklaces or bracelets.

Buddhist amulets have been around since the beginning of Buddhism. In Thailand, where Buddhism is the main religion, it forms an important part of Thai culture and society. Buddhist amulets are often given as gifts from one Buddhist person to another.



Buddhist amulets are a traditional form of protection from illness, accidents, and bad luck. They consist of a string of beads with a small object at the end.

Buddhist amulets have been used for spiritual protection since the time of the Buddha. The amulet's purpose is to protect its wearer from harm or misfortune. Amulet's can be found in many different styles and shapes as well as made from different materials such as gold, silver, coins, gemstones, wood, bone and animal skin.







The end bead on an amulet is often ornately designed to reflect the person's faith or what they hope to achieve with their amulet - to attract love or money for example.

Buddhists believe that some amulets, called Mercy Charms, can bring protection and good luck. Lucky Fortunes are also used to bring good fortune to the wearer. Protection amulets prevent bad luck or harm from coming into your life. Invincibility amulets safeguard the wearer from any person who might try to hurt them. Anti Black Magic amulets protect against people who try to cast evil spells on you by removing their power 



The most popular amulet in Thailand is a of course the Pra Somdej, but also all Buddhists around the world wear and use Rosary beads; In Japan, these beads are placed in a Buddhist’s left hand and rubbed against the right hand while chanting a single-syllable mantra known as “Nam Myoho Renge Kyo”. But Thai Buddhists prefer 'Buddho' or 'Na Mo Puttaaya'.  Thai Buddhists believe in magic, and use Rosaries to chant 'Kata' Incantations, to invoke magic spells, mostly recited in Pali Sanskrit and Khmer Sanskrit. 










They wear charms for protection against black magic, wear amulets to increase their luck, while some believe that they can be invincible if they have a special amulet. Mercy Charms are often used to get things done. People also use them when they are in need of help from someone, for example when they are trying to get a promotion at work or want to avoid being arrested. Lucky Fortunes are usually given out by monks who want to bless good fortune for you and make you happy all year long. These amulets can also be passed down from generation to generation. 





 Protection amulets are worn mainly by people who work in dangerous jobs or live in troubled areas where there is a high crime rate for example Thailand is one of the most popular travel destinations for tourists. It is also home to the largest Buddhist population in the world, with over 95% of Thai people being followers. Buddhist monks are revered by Thai people because they are seen as symbols of purity and holiness. They are often approached for help with problems that range from simple to quite serious. 



This can be done in person or through spirit writing, which is a form of magical writing that only the monk can read. Mercy charms are not considered part of traditional Buddhist beliefs but they have been around for centuries and continue to be given out by monks today. Some believe these charms are made from sacred threads that have been tied during worship ceremonies or were blessed by a monk themselves.

In Case you are New to Amulets;
Apart from the Spiritual Value of the Pra Kring, and the fact that this particular Kring is a Luang Por song Pra kring, a High Sangha of Great Purity whose Classic, small numbered editions of Thai Buddhist Amulets are Highly Sought after and never enough in supply for the number of serious Collectors of this type of Esteemed Amulet of Fine Taste and Extremely Sacred Empowerment.
Thailand Amulets - Thai Buddhist Amulets
The base is covered with Lava Loha, with numbered code and the Name of Luang Por Song Inscribed. A Kring Bead Relic is inserted into the interior of the Base of the Loi Ongk Statuette. The Khmer Sanskrit letter 'Ma' is stamped into the base for edition authenticity marking. Serial Number can vary from that in the picture, as they are different for each amulet. Due to the nine sacred metals and the high quantity of pure gold mixed in, the surface colors vary throughout the wholse amulet. For this reason, one should understand that each amulet is slightly different, each one distinct and original in its particular markings.
Leaving the Sacred behind for a monment, we must also discuss the Collectorship aspect of this amulet, because Pra Kring are Classic Cult Collector Amulets, which has its own evaluation system that is artistic and speculative instead of Religious. Stamps just have stamp collectors, coins just have coin collectors.
Thailand Amulets - Thai Buddhist Amulets
But amulets, be they coin amulets, metal, powder, a particular kind (such as the Pra Kring) or whatever, have a Religious and Mystical value that goes beyond such speculations. however, amulets also have the same kind of collector niches as do stamps, coins or any other cult collector circle. The trading, swopping, collecting and showing of amulets in competitions, is a world in itself. Some people collect amulets for religious reasons, some for speculation or collectorship, and some for both reasons (like Us).

The Pra Kring was released some time ago in 2548 BE in a Dtraimas Empowerment which saw the Pra Kring being empowered nightly in the Hut of Luang Por Song as he passed the 3 month Rainy Retreat in his Kuti. At the end of the Rain retreat, a sacred Puttapisek Blessing Ceremony was performed in the Uposadha Shrine room, with the Dharma Chakra Incantation to Open the Eyes of the Budha in the statues.
