Luang Phor Parn

Terracotta amulets you have seen on this page are created by Luang Phor (reverend father monk) PARN, Wat Bang Nom Kho Temple, Ayuthaya province. He began to create amulets in B.E.2460(1917)with more than 30 imprints or models. Luang Phor Parn lived between B.E.2418-2481(1875-1938). 

Luang Phor Parn is worshiped as one of the top 10 greatest guru monks of present-day Thailand. He was the closest disciple of Luang Phor Niam Wat Noi, Suphanburi, and also a disciple of Luang Phor Nong Wat Klong Madarn. His two great teachers passed away undecayed. When Luang Phor Parn passed away in B.E.2481(July 26th), his body was also undecayed as same as his teachers'. In B.E.2476, five years before he passed away, he had announced to all his disciples the date and time of his death. 

His precognition was quite clear and exactly correct, he passed away on the date and time he had foretold. Luang Phor Parn was a meditative guru monk and also had magical knowledges. On Buddhistic Dhamma, it was recorded that he reached the great six knowledges of miracle. So he possesses knowledge on precognition, out-of-body ability, mind detecting, and performing comprehensive paranormal phenomena,etc. 

Apart from these abilities, he also possesses the highest state of Wipassana or knowledge on mind cleaning to stop next rebirth. But he intended to become a future-to-be Buddha, his aspiration called in Thai " Prathana Buddha Bhummi". To achieve this goal, he did a great deal merits, building more than 30 temples in Ayuthaya, Saraburi and Lopburi. He also had intensified great Dhamma practices which automatically cleaned and "distilled" his inner body(astral body) to become crystal-like state and changed his body's cells immortal. This is the reason why his body undecayed after he passed away. 

Some great guru monks in Thailand hinted their advanced Dhamma level to their disciples this way. Luang Phor Parn's amulets have marked long-time uncountable records in warding off dangers of all kinds. And it's great for making sacred water for healing illness that modern phisician could not do anything with it. Luang Phor Parn's amulets are not like any other guru monks', of his the Buddha sitting on a carrier creature, i.e. garuda, Hanuman, porcupine, fish, cock and bird. 

Once Luang Phor Parn told his disciples that his amulets had been blessed through the Lent period of three months, it's long time more than enough to charge Buddha's power into amulets capable of warding off dangers of all kinds. He said that if they were blessed for 3 years, the garuda and the bird on the amulet would fly out. Luang Phor Parn's amulets are very popular among Thai amulets users and collectors because of their frequent miraculous phenomena both recorded and unrecorded.
