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.
Kata Luang Por Pina
Light 5 sticks of Incense, and chant the Maha Namasakara 3 times before chanting the special Kata for Luang Por Pina Bpiyataro
Namo Dtassa Pakawadto Arahadto Sammaa Samputtassa
Namo Dtassa Pakawadto Arahadto Sammaa Samputtassa

Kata Pluk Khong (Call the power within the amulet)
Puttang Gandtang Saranang Haa
Puttang Gandtang Saranang Hae

Nadtae Sudtae
The last repetition, change the words to
Mahaa Sudtae Nachaa
As an example, let us pretend a four year old were to recite the mantra, which would result in four lines like this;
Nadtae Sudtae, Nadtae Sudtae, Nadtae Sudtae, Mahaa Sudtae Nachaa
We invite you to listen to the podcast below, and be amazed at the depth of meanings within the Star Amulet.

A Very Rare Large size Pra Put Pim Chiang Saen Yai Kru Wat Tap Khaw ancient amulet, from the first Era Batch (Sukhothai), Thuis exhibit is classed as 'Nuea Graeng' (stone hard), with rugged and defined features, and the classic aspects of a true Pra Niyom Master Class amulet of the Pra Kru Hiding Place Amulet Category. The Pra Pim Chiang Saen was found only in extremely small numbers, and is amongst the top preferred pim (models) which were found in the Kru. This exhibit is a highly preferred Pim of the first era pantheon, and is quite large in size, measuring 6.5 x 4 Cm.
The Muan Sarn Sacred Clay of this Pristine and highly attractive exhibit is extremely time-hardened, and has a stone-like appearance, of an ancient amulet that is full of character. The amulet is considered an Ongk Kroo Reference Study Amulet. This Pim Chiang Saen however is dated from long before Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri, and from the first of the three eras of amulets found within the Kru hiding place, and so its sacred clay has an even older appearance to the second batch of amulets hidden by Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri. The Kingdom existed from 1238 until 1438, roughly during the middle ages.
The amulets of the Kru Wat Tap Khaw themselves are older than even the Pra Somdej of Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri, of Wat Rakang Kositaram (first two of three consecutive finds/batches), and are reference study amulets for students of the lineage of amulets of Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri and Ajarn Saeng.
This first era amulet is made in Nuea Din with very similar characteristics to the Kampaeng Paetch clay amulets, which reveals perhaps some further connection with Ajarn Saeng and Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri. Because they both used such amulets to break into powders and mix with the famous Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram of immortal fame (notcieable by presence of tiny red dots seen within the white clay of Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram amulets).
Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri also wandered the Northern regions for 25 years as he disappeared to escape royal responsibility in Bangkok, and must have collected many such ancient amulets on his travels, which he hid in different places, and used to make Muan Sarn Sacred Powders too with his own Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram.
The second era Kru Tap Khaw amulets can in every sense be considered 'Ongk Kroo' (teacher model), for reference study of the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang amulet, for the following reasons; 1. The amulets from the second Era which were found, were almost certainly made by Somdej Dto Prohmrangsri, 2. The amulets are older than the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang, and hence is a good teacher as to how sacred clay that is more than 150 - 200 years old should look under the eye loupe. 3. The Muan Sarn Sacred Clay of the second Era amulets are almost identical in its appearance and ageing characteristics as the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang. The most highly [referred models Though are the first Era, which are much rarer and centuries older.
The Pra Kru Wat Tap Khaw series hiding place amulets are now becoming extremely rare, and have entered the Master-Class Pra Niyom Category. These amulets are yet another priceless possession of the devotee and collector of the Pra Dtragun Somdej Dto (Pantheon of amulets that are directly or indirectly associated with Somdej Dto in their making).
The Kru Wat Tap Khaw Amulet Find, was discovered in 2480 by a Mr. Dteng (Surname not known), who found them whilst digging around the temple grounds. The Kru was found to have amulets buried which were made during three different Eras of History;
The first era batch was created in the Sukhothai Kingdom Era, and were made from fine Nuea Pong Puttakun powders (some in Nuea Din). A large number of different models were found, such as the Pra Pratan Porn, the Pra Ruang Nang, Pra Rueang Yern, Pra Lila. The amulets of this era have a creamy milky white clay hardened like stone, extremely similar in Muan Sarn to the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram and to the amulets of Wat Plab.
The amulets of the second era found were from the early Ratanakosin period (somewhere around the time of King Rama 3), and are believed to have been made and hidden by Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri and Ajarn Saeng (Wat Mani Chonlakhant) and are hence roughly of an age between 150 and 200 years old. This group of amulets were also made from Nuea Pong Puttakun, which have an almost identical appearance with the sacred clay of the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram of Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri.
A very large number of different kinds of amulet designs were found in this batch, some in greater numbers than others. Amongst the many Pim found in this batch were the Pra Luang Por Dto, Pra Khun Phaen Ha Liam, Pra Khun Phaen Khai Pa Seek, Pra Sam, Pra Narai Song Pern, and Pra Ruang, which were all obviously made in reverence to the previous periods of Thai Buddhist Arts of History.
When all aspects of these amulets are considered and the amulets themselves are examined in all their aspects, it is the common conclusion with experts that the Great Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri of Wat Rakang Kositaram must have played a part in their making and Burial.
Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri is known to have hidden amulets in temples around the country, mostly in Central Thailand and in the North, and the amulets themself do not differ in 'Nuea Ha' (content), to the Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram. This makes the Second Era (Ratanakosin) amulets of course a perfect reference study teacher model (Ongk Kroo) for training the eyes to recognise a true ancient Pra Somdej Wat Rakang Kositaram amulet.
These amulets have also been found in the Kru hiding place of the Kru Pra Yern Luang Por Dto of Wat Intrawiharn (Wat Bang Khun Prohm) of Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri, which strengthens the evidence that Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri was responsible for their making. Below is a video in HD of another Pim from this Kru (the Pim Pra Khun Phaen Ha Liam) with an unbiased narrative on the Kru Wat Tap Khaw amulets, given by Ajarn Spencer Littlewood
The amulets found in the Kru which came from the third era, were made and hidden during the time of King Rama 6, reaching up to the time of His Majesty Rama 9. This amulets of this batch were found in many forms and reminiscent or straight replicas of amulets of the great Masters of those times, such as the Pra Pim of Luang Por Ao, and Luang Phu Phueak, of Wat Ging Gaew.
One thing to notice about amulets of thie age, is that they were hand pressed, and that close study of the features of the design will reveal hand pressing, through the variations of depth and contour which arise from the hand using varied levels of pressure with each different press. Modern amulets (and fakes of ancient ones), tend to use machine pressing methods in mass, which results in every single amulet looking identical in its features. Precisely the opposite is true of hand pressed amulets.
The Muan Sarn Sacred Powder clay of the third later Era group of amulets, do not have the same agédness or appearance to its substance as the previous two batches mentioned, and have a much younger appearance in the features of the sacred clay. Some amulets even copied the Pim Song (models) found in the previous two eras of amulets found in the Kru, which caused some suspicion about the third batch.
Because of the much younger age and appearance of the third era batch which was buried at a later time than the first two batches, and the replicas found in the batch, confusion arose, causing the whole Kru Wat Tap Khaw find to come under scrutiny and under false suspicion about their true age, and for quite a long time the amulets were overlooked, due to the fact that few people realised that the amulets of the two other previous eras were indeed much more ancient, and authentic.
The educated collector and student hence must have selectiveness when examining the amulets of the Kru Wat Tap Khaw, because of the three different batches found, which have similar Pim Song in all of them. An experienced collector should hence use his experience to estimate the age of the clay of the amulet to define which of the three batches/eras the amulet came from (especially between second and third eras).
One does not however need to have immense expertise to tell the difference, because the second era amulets (the ones assumed to be made by Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri), have a much older appearance, and a much harder stone-like clay. In the case of the Kru Wat Tap Khaw amulets, one should place higher value on recognising the age of the clay, than recognising the Pim Song (design model), because the model is found in more than one era batch. In short, the designs were replicated in all batches, but the age of each amulet cannot be replicated, and is the definitive measure.
The inner circle aficionados of this series of Hiding Place Amulets have various beliefs depending on which group of aficionados; The main group assume that it was the Great Khrua Ta Saeng of Wat Mani Chonlakhant in Lopburi who made the first batch during the time or Rama the 3rd. Khrua Ta Saeng was the Kroo Ba Ajarn of the Great Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri, who encountered him on Tudong forest wandering in the Ayuttaya region. He must have also then buried amulets from the Sukhothai Era, including this Pim Chiang Saen.
This was during the time that Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri went missing from Wat Rakang Kositaram and spent 15 Years in the forests around the Northern regions of Thailand and could not be found, and it was during this time that Somdej Dto received the Wicha Pra Somdej and other methods of making Sacred Powders from Khrua Ta Saeng, and Kata Akom for subduing Maras, Ghosts and Demonic Spirits.
Khrua Ta Saeng liked to make amulets in the ancient Sukhothai and Ayuttaya periodic styles of artistic interpretation. He would make many kinds of ancient amulets and hide them in Kru in temples around both Sukhothai and Ayuttaya Regions. One very famous and recognisable amulet of Khrua Ta Saeng is the Hlang Hoo Hai, which has two holes in the back face of the amulet. The first era batch of the Kru Wat Tap Khaw amulet find has also examples of Pra Luang Por Dto Hlang Hoo Hai, which is very rare and highly preferred.
The rarest amulet of all of the first era batch of Wat Tap Khaw from Khrua Ta Saeng is the Pra Somdej Pim Gang Pla, theTri Gaay (Pra Sam), the Pra Khun Phaen Ha Liam, Pra Khun Phaen Khai Pa Seek, and the Pra Narai Song Pern.
There is written documentation form Luang Phu Kam of Wat Amarint, who was a Gaeji Ajarn who lived at the same time as, and who was a close friend of Somdej Dto, that amulets had been made by these masters. It is written that Luang Phu Kam had asked Somdej Pra Puttajarn Dto to make some sacred powder amulets in the style and fashion that was known and popular to the people of Ayuttaya, Sukhothai and Lopburi.
The very same models (Pim Song) of amulet which were found in the Kru Wat tap Khaw are mentjuoned in this documentation as having been made by Somdej Dto, and so there is little doubt remaining in the origins of the second era batch of the Kru Wat Tap Khaw.
Below; The written documentation from Luang Phu Kam regarding Somdej Pra Puttajarn (Dto) Prohmrangsri's involvement in the Kru Wat Tap Khaw amulets.
The Kru Wat Tap Khaw first and second era batch amulets are most certainly the best remaining chance to own such a classic and sacred amulet of immense age and maturity, and a very rare Pim of the first Batch Sukhothai Era amulet find, is in itself, an immensely rare acquisition..
