An early-mid era example of Luang Por Pina’s most Sacred and Powerful Daw Nai Pan Nai Pon Star Amulet – Sacred Karma Improving Lucky Star for Protection, Wealthy Fortunes, Status Increase, Promotion, and Auspicious Fate. This exhibit is a Pim Lek (small size) measuring 2.5 x 2 Cm. The five sided star face is painted red, and the eight sided star side is painted silver. This exhibit is especially desirable to collectors for the fact that this exhibit has almost a full set of Ploi Sek Gemstones on both sides, which is rare to see in this early-mid era model, for most examples of this Pim, are found without gemstones.
This is the two sided 5 and 8 Pointed Pentacle version, in red/silver painted Muan Sarn Sacred Powders wth Ploi Sek Maha Pokasap Gem inserts. This particular example has special Necromantic Powders stuffed into the edge of the amulet, and, as a Pim lek model, is not only suitable for men, but also a very recommendable model for lady devotees due to the smaller size.
It is very hard to find Daw Nai Pan Nai Pon amulets in a suitable size for ladies to wear.. It is in any case extremely difficult to find one of these amulets in any circumstances, but to find one with an almost complete set of gemstones is doubly lucky.
This exhibit is a Pim Lek (small size) measuring 2.5 x 2 Cm, and is a very early era model in pure muan sarn, made from a very highly concentrated admixture of sacred Necromantic and Magical powders.
The Daw Aathan Hnun Duang has different stars on each side, one as a 5 pointed star similar to the Military Star, and one in 8 pointed Pentacle similar to the Police Force star. Despite their importance for the meaning which is attributed for the Military and Police force, which was of course intentional, there are deep spiritual meanings imbued within the symbolism of each star design.
This amulet is commonly know for its Wealth Increasing Maha Lap Magick, but in truth, the amulet possesses an massive repository of attributed Buddhist Blessings of very sacred and Auspicious Influences on the Forces of Karma.
The amulet is recommended to be encased with,with the pendant ring at an angle, which is a tradition with the Dao Nai Pan Nai Pon, as was originally decreed with the first edition Mae Nuea Horm (Perfumed Mother) Lucky Star (‘Mae Nuea Horm’ 1st edition, was differentiated being somewhat Larger with a crescent moon below the star).
The base of the amulet has a special code stamp embossed into it by Luang Por Pina. The powers of the Daw Nai Pan Nai Pon are manyfold, but has a special ability given by Luang Por Pina which Luang Por Pina would say goes like this; ‘whoever is not straight with you and cannot be trusted, will be spotted and exposed by the Dao Nai Pan or the Mae Nuea Horm, if you wear it at an angle like this’
When understood, the meanings within the sacred Lucky Star Pentacle amulets of Luang Por Pina, are very extensive and comprehensive, and aligned to the focal points of Advanced Buddhist Vipassana Kammathana Practices, with the accompanyiing Miraculous Power of transformation that comes with the 40 Kammathanas.
Luang Por Pina is the deceased Abbot of Wat Sanom Lao in Sra Buri and was said to have possessed Abhinya Powers, and to have Mastered the 10 Kasina Powers of Elemental Magical Dominion.
It is said that he was able to read the minds and intentions of other Humans, and bring amulets to life with is Empowerment Methods, and that his amulets were able to give signs and also can be beseeched and prayed to for wish fulfilment (Sarapat Neuk). There are many stories of Miraculous Events occurring through his amulets.
The Daw Nai Pan Lucky Star is made from a mixture of Highly Sorcerous Ingredients, Herbal and Prai Necromantic Powders, which are both incredibly difficult to find and obtain, and also very easy to recognise their presence within the sacred Muan Sarn Powder mixture.
Those who have had an authentic Daw Aathan before their eyes, will be able to see instantly that this amulet is a very recognisable and distinguished exhibit with the clear to see presence of Luang Por Pina’s Sorcerous Muan Sarn Sarn Powders.
Below is a different model (Namely the Mae Nuea Horm First Edition Amulet), for you to enjoy looking at and for study.
The holes in the amulet also have meaning, some of the daw Nai Pan Nai Pon can be found to have gemstones (Ploi Sek) embedded within the indentations, which are even rarer to find.
This particular exhibit is a Classic Pim from the Early period of Making (Circa 2500), and also one of the highly Preferred ‘Pim Niyom’ Master Models and can be considered ‘Ongk Kroo’ (Teacher Reference Model) for a perfect reference comparison of authenticating other less recognisable Star amulets of lesser preference.
‘Ud Mai Gon Fa Pa’ (Wood from a tree that was truck by Lightning), and many Sacred Relics within its Sacred Powder Muan Sarn. Luang Por Pina’s Daw Nai Pan, exspecially this model above others, is now extremely rare and sought after.
Its price is constantly rising, because only a few hundred Daw Nai Pan are assumed to have been made in the early Era, and they are mostly all already in the possession of the Devotees, many of whom are high ranking Policemen, Army Officers and Top Doctors and Medics.
This model is an early edition which is evidend by its extreme dryness and the texture of the Muan Sarn Sacred Powders which reveal its age, and the authenticity of the amulet
The title of ‘Ongk kroo’ is fitting for this amulet, is for its easily recognisable features and Muan Sarn Powders allow one to easily distinguish the authenticity of any other exhibit when held side by side for comparison, making it a Master Key for teaching the eyes to recognise Luang Por’s famous Sacred Powders, as well as the effects of aging over the years, as to how discoloration and surface mildews should appear in a true authentic example of the Daw Nai Pan. Despite being a painted model, the edges of the amulet are highly visible to reveal the Muan Sarn Sacred Powders content and aging characteristics, and the true appearance of the Muan Sarn used by Luang Por Pina for these inimitable and famously powerful amulets
Luang Por Pina is known to have performed strange Magical feats in front of the eyes of his disciples many times, especially when devotees would ask him for an amulet. He would ask the devotee to lay down and open their eyes, and would take a handful of sand and pour it over their face, as they would hold the amulet in the hand.
But the sand would bounce back before it hit their eyes, and no matter how much was poured on the face, not a single grain of sand would be able to enter the eyes of the devotee, becoming repelled as if by a force field before it touched the eyes.

The Pra Pong Prai Kumarn Luang Por Sakorn is since its release, and now more than ever the top preferred model of this series of Khun Phaen in the 2548 'Run Pha Pha' edition, a classic Pim Niyom model amulet of Luang Por Sakorn's Great pantheon of amulets. The Pra Khun Phaen Prai Kumarn Nuea Wa Dork Tong, with twin Takrut Sariga, is an immense rarity in the present day to see, and ever more so since the passing of this great Master and 'Looksit Aek' first initiate of Luang Phu Tim Issarigo (Wat Laharn Rai). This Pim is the Pim Yai with twin copper Takrut Sariga, made in Nuea Wan Dork Tong, rare magical golden forest herb flower powders, with Pong Prai Kumarn (visible in certain greenish-white marbled areas of the Muan Sarn Clay).
Roon Pha Pah (BE 2546) Edition
The Phra Khun Phaen Prai Kumarn Roon Pha Pah edition was released by Luang Por Sakorn in B.E. 2546 (2003 AD). The name "Pha Pah" refers to a traditional Buddhist ceremony for collecting donations, in this case, the funds raised were explicitly intended to help build Guti(monastic living quarters) at the temple.
The amulets are renowned for containing an authentic, potent mixture of sacred powders, including the legendary Phong Prai Kumarnpowder inherited directly from Luang Por Sakorn's master, Luang Pu Tim of Wat Laharn Rai. Other ingredients included Phong Wan Saboo Lierd, Phong Maha Niyom, Phong Jinda Roop Thong, and various other herbs and sacred oils.
Blessing Ceremony
The Roon Pha Pah amulets underwent a significant consecration process. Luang Por Sakorn, widely recognized for his mastery of the Wicha (magical arts) passed down from Luang Pu Tim, personally led the primary empowerment.
While specific details naming every single monk present are not publicly documented in general accounts, the ceremony was a major event at Wat Nong Krap. Luang Por Sakorn chanted over the amulets for several months to ensure they were fully empowered with protective and charm properties (Metta Maha Niyom and Maha Sanaeh). The amulets were distributed to devotees who made donations to the temple building fund.
Documented Variations
The Roon Pha Pah edition was produced in both Pim Yai (large print) and Pim Lek (small print) sizes, with several material and Takrutvariations.
The three main powder mixtures (Nuea) in the large print were:
- Nuea Khaw (White/Beige powder)
- Nuea Chompoo (Pink powder)
- Nuea Lueang (Yellow powder using Dork Tong herb) - This is considered the most prized due to its material composition.
Variations were further distinguished by the number and type of embedded Takrut (sacred metal scrolls) in the back:
- Most commonly, they featured two copper Takrut.
- Some pink powder variations came with two silver Takrut.
- Many amulets, had a gold-painted finish on the front face.
Luang Por Sakorn Manunyo (B.E. 2481-2556 / C.E. 1938-2013)
Born Sakorn Fai Saalee, he began studying magic and traditional medicine at a young age. He was ordained at Wat Nong Krap at age 20 and then became the primary disciple (Looksit Aek) of the great Luang Pu Tim Issarigo of Wat Laharn Rai. Luang Por Sakorn was the only monk to fully inherit the secret Wicha and the remaining stock of Luang Pu Tim's famous Phong Prai Kumarn powder, which he used sparingly in his own editions. He was highly revered for his purity of practice and powerful amulets, known for their efficacy in protection and fortune.
Wat Nong Krap
Located in the Rayong Province of Thailand, Wat Nong Krap is the temple where Luang Por Sakorn spent his entire monastic life and served as the abbot, steering its development and construction. The temple stands as a testament to his legacy and continues to be a place of pilgrimage for devotees of the Luang Pu Tim lineage.
Miraculous Narratives & Reputations
- Evasion of Danger (Klaew Klaad): The most frequently cited type of miracle associated with Luang Por Sakorn's sacred objects (and the lineage of Luang Pu Tim in general) involves wearers surviving severe accidents and life-threatening situations unscathed. There are general legends of soldiers and police officers on duty in dangerous areas, who carried his inscriptions or amulets and were miraculously saved from violent confrontations or assassinations.
- Invincibility (Kong Grapan Chadtri):Related to protection, some narratives lean towards invincibility, where weapons or physical harm simply fail to impact the wearer.
- Good Fortune and Wealth (Maha Lap):Devotees often share stories of experiencing unexpected successes in their work, improved business ventures, and even winning lottery prizes after venerating his amulets.
- Universal Benevolence and Charm (Metta Maha Niyom & Maha Sanaeh): The Khun Phaen amulets, in particular, are famed for creating an aura of kindness and goodwill around the wearer, making them more likable, respected, and successful in social interactions and love life.
These results are considered highly effective by devotees, which is why the value of Luang Por Sakorn's amulets continues to rise in the collector market.
Luang Por Sakorn Roon Pha Pah (BE 2546) amulet in the large print, with the "yellow powder" (
Nuea Lueang) containing the most sought-after ingredients, a gold-painted front, and two copper Takrut can vary significantly.
As of early 2026, prices generally fall within the following ranges, depending heavily on condition, authenticity certification, and where it is sold (e.g., online marketplaces, physical amulet markets, or private sales):
Estimated Market Value
- General Price Range: The price typically ranges around 16,000 (approximately USD 450).
- Auction Prices: Completed auctions for this specific variant have been recorded around THB 16,100 (in 2022, which suggests a higher current value).
- Key Value Factors: The value is primarily driven by the reputation of the creator(Luang Por Sakorn), the specific edition (Roon Pha Pah), the desirable "yellow" material which is the most expensive of the three variants, and the condition of the gold paint and powder.
- Collector Demand: Because of its high reputation for efficacy (including the famous story of a village headman surviving a shooting) and the fact that its price is still considered "mid-range" compared to Luang Pu Tim's original amulets, demand remains very high among collectors in Thailand and Singapore/Malaysia.
The amulets were made using a formula which began with 9 different kinds of Muan Sarn Powders to make the Sacred Clay.
1. Pong Prai Kumarn of Luang Phu Tim (Wat Laharn Rai) 2. Pong Ga Fak from Luang Phu Bun (Wat Ban Na) 3. Pong Ga Fak of Luang Phu Sawad (Wat Grasae Bon) 4.Pong Wan of Wat Chum Saeng 5. Pong Khaw Sarn Dam, from Luang Por Ruesi Ling Dam (Wat Ta Sung) 6. Chan Hmak from Luang Por Chom 7 Pong Khun Phaen Prai Kumarn powders from the 2538 BE second edition 8. Powders from Wat Koh Kloi. blessed by Luang Phu Tim in 2507 BE 9 Gesa (hairs) of Luang Por Sakorn.
The rear face of the amulet bears the Yant Grabork Khwai, and has a two copper Sariga Bird Takrut spells inserted, with the words 'Luang Por Sakorn Manunyo, Wat Nong Grub, Rayong' embossed on the lower section of the amulet. The Yant Grabork Khwai is adorned with the Khom Pali Kata 'Iswaasu Na Mo Puttaaya'
The powders were empowered by Luang Por Sakorn in solitary for 15 days and 15 nights before they were ready for being mixed into sacred clay and pressed into amulets, to be blessed in Buddha Abhiseka and handed out during the Tord Pa Pha Robe Giving Ceremony on the 27th February 2548 BE 10. Pong Prai Kumarn Luang Por Sakorn.
The Pong Prai Kumarn of Luang Por Sakorn contained Sacred Powders from various editions of amulets of his Mentor Luang Phu Tim, mixed with Sacred Powders of Luang Por Sakorn's early edition amulets, Paeng Sek Enchanted face talcs, Nam Man Prai Chant Pasom Khloen, Din jet Poeng (earths from 7 salt licks) Din Jet Plual (earths of 7 giant termite mounds, Din Jet Ta (earths of 7 Ports) Din Jet Pha Cha (earths of 7 cemeteries), Khee Takrai Sema (powders of 7 temple boundary wall fragments), and some of Luang Phu Tim's Famous Pong PraIi Kumarn, which he was given a repository of by his Initiating Mentor Luang Phu Tim.
The making of Pong Prai Kumarn Powders according to the formula of Luang Phu Tim involved a very difficult and extensive set or ritual circumstances. The real name of the powders is 'Pong Prai Kumarn Maha Phuudt'. These powders required an extremely complex method, which needed the correct choosing of astrological dates and times for the necessary events. The formula used the bone powders of a skull of a child who was not a 'Phii' (ghost), rather a 'Phuudt' (Bhūta Phantom).
A Phuudt is the spirit of a human who was prematurely killed or died before his time. The Phuudt spirit can only be invoked and ordained by a Monk or Practitioner who has attained higher levels of Enlightened Awareness. The Most then ordain the spirit to become a Deva (Angelic Being). Only then, when the spirit of the bones had been ordained as a Deva, were the bones ground up and empowered as Pong Prai Kumarn Maha Phuudt.
Luang Por's amulets are favored and faithfully revered with hundreds of thousands of devotees around the world who believe in this Great Monk and his amulets. Luang Por Sakorn Passed away in 2013, and since his passing, his in any case Internationally popular amulets have become ever rare to find, as the devotees deplete the remaining stocks of amulets left around the country.
The value of Luang Por Sakorn's amulets have begun to approach that of some of the lower-mid range priced amulets of his Mentor, Luang Phu Tim, and are expected to continue to increase in both value and rarity continuously at the same very fast pace they have taken in recent years.
We recommend the amulets of Luang Por Sakorn for their intrinsic value rarity and certain power, being one of the top ten Gaeji Ajarn Guru master Monks of this last half Century to have brought us the cotinued lineage sorcery of his mentor the great Luang Phu Tim, and continue and advance the Dtamra Khun Phaen Pong Prai Kumarn of Luang Phu Tim, to the point where now since more than a decade, the amulets of Luang Por Sakorn have taken on their own individual niche of high esteem.
