(2018) At Government Complex, Bangkok ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat is a priceless temple of the city, aged at least 600 years old; with the main pagoda containing the Buddha's relics, but it was smuggled to find the property until it deteriorated badly. The dungeon in this prang is the origin of the very famous powder amulet in Suphanburi which is one of the 5 popular amulets "Benjaphakee". Many archaeologists commented that this prang is probably the construction art of the U-Thong Suphan period. It is located in Tambon Rua Yai, on the west bank of Suphan Buri River, at Sompharnkong Road separated from Malaiman Road for about 300 meters. In the past, it was the center of Suphannaphum, and it is a priceless temple, and assumed to be at least 600 years old. The main prang is the place where the relics are contained; but in 1913, villagers smuggled for property until it deteriorated badly. As for the very famous Phong Suphan Buri amulet, which is one of the "Benjaphakee", has gone from the dungeon in this prang as well including other famous amulets apart from Phra Phong Suphan such as; Phra Kamphaeng Sok, Phra Mahesuan, Phra Suphan Yod Tho and Phra Suphan Lang Phan as well as various Chin amulets which is currently rare to find. Many archaeologists commented that it is probably the art of construction in the era of U Thong Suphanphum; because of construction evidence indicates that it is a brick construction without mortar, which is an old method before the Ayutthaya period. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Phra is the image of the Buddha representing his descent from the Tavatimsha Heaven, to which he had risen in order to preach to his mother. Normally it is in the form of a figure that seems to have come to a momentary pause mid-stride, one heel raised while the other foot is firmly planted on the ground, one hand lifted in a gesture of giving instruction or dispelling fear, while the other arm is naturally at its side. This is also known as Abbhaya mudra, the mudra of no fear. In Theravada Buddhism, a mudra is a symbolic gesture or symbol. This gesture of Phra Leela means dispelling of fear, peace, protection as well as benevolence. Phra Lila (Walking Buddha) Phra Lila (Walking Buddha) brings good fortune and wealth to the wearer. A wearer will have the ability to see good opportunities as well as obtaining them. Phra Leela will help a wearer to walk through obstacles in life as well protecting them from danger. Business people will see that there is a lot of help obtained in their business as well as the luck of attracting people of higher power. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ 'Pra Kru', or, 'Pra Gru' or even sometimes called 'Pra Kroo, are various kinds of amulets, made from various materials (lead, clay, sacred powder), which are buried, or stashed in a hiding place to gather power, and also in the case of Buddha Images or Buddhist Imagery, to preserve the faith and the knowledge of the existence of a Buddha, far into the Future. The hiding place, can be one of a number of different places, for example a Chedi Stupa, or with the 'Look Nimit' Arahant ball buried under the Uposadha, or under the Dais of the Buddha in the Uposadha, or under the earth in a Sacred place. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Buddha amulet Details: The word "shin" refers to metals which may be mixed with more than one substance. Amulets in Thailand made from metal. They usually contain three main ingredients: mercury, tin, and lead. (There may also be brass There is some copper mixed in.) When mixed, what kind of material will come out? It depends a lot on the presence of one of the ingredients. (Pour before the metal is lighter into the socket first. The first set of amulets came out in one piece. After pouring, heavy metals such as lead lie at the bottom of the tank to become a different type of material). Different contents will have their own characteristics and have different names. Classified according to physical characteristics As time passes, the old ones will be noticeably different in terms of color and texture, including wax, rust, wrinkles, cracks, etc. As for the principles for considering old Buddha amulets, they are as follows: The first step is to know what material the Buddha amulet was made from. Let's say for example Phra Kru Wat Along - Koh Temple Bangkok, Phra Kru Wat Phet Saraburi is a silver amulet. (Contains lead mixed with tin and mercury which is a common ingredient that is normally found in silver amulets), red rust Chiang Saen amulets It is almost pure lead like this. Now we have to see what condition the Buddha amulet will have after time has passed. It is necessary to consider the separate elements further. By the nature of each type of material, when it gets old, how will it react or react to air, humidity, and salinity? which can be viewed by separating them out as follows 1. Mercury: The technician will add mercury as a mixture so that the molten metal will run into the corners of the mold. Because the mercury will escape the heat. Makes the other metal parts follow along to fill the beautiful print. The mercury which is on the outermost surface gives the Buddha a shiny silver color. This mercury surface, after time has passed, will appear pale and dull, or what is called dead mercury, especially when exposed to moisture. The salinity will become duller and darker until it turns black. 2. Tin: Tin is a mineral that is abundant in Thailand. Used to make coins and many types of utensils. The distinctive feature of tin over time is that it will be gray-black. If exposed to moisture due to poor storage It will appear to swell and split open. In the language of Buddhist monks it is called a "bomb." An example that can often be seen is a tin coin with a hole in the middle. Can be found everywhere 3. Lead material Lead is the main ingredient in the most commonly made amulets in Thailand. Probably because there is a lot of lead in Thailand and production is easy because it has a low melting point. The appearance of lead will darken in color over time. There is a juiciness that can be felt visually. It has wrinkles, porosity (inside) naturally. Sometimes the lead itself is eaten to the point where there may be white wax and some rust. And sometimes the rust and wax have eaten deep into the inside of the metal, causing potholes or eaten until almost no real substance remains, thus becoming wax and rust to replace the original metal. It has been found as well. This depends on the storage conditions (as many experts believe that rust and wax come from within the meat). Now when we learn about the characteristics of ingredients and how their condition changes with age. It's like we know the past. that when the Buddha image is old, it will look like this. On the other hand, if the appearance of the Buddha image or object that we are considering does not have the condition as stated, then it may be considered to be old. It may be a new creation, a parody made in a later era. Here, it will take some study to be able to consider it correctly. ** Each type of monk in each crypt There will be slightly different content, further divided into sections. Here we must study further ourselves. *Phra Nuea Chin The word "chin" according to the dictionary means alloy Contains lead and tin, commonly used to make amulets. Therefore it is accepted that The amulet is made of alloy metal. There is also lead ore mixed in. Chin meat can be divided into 3 types: 1. Lead alloy type means a Buddha amulet made from lead alloy containing more lead than other minerals. or pure lead. If this type of amulet is very old There will be rust in the form of oxide covering the upper part of the Buddha image. It has the appearance of red rust stains. Some Buddha images have a natural explosion of their flesh from the inside to the outside called “Broken up like a spider's web.” As for the younger monks, There will be red spots. There are patches on the Buddha's surface or there is only a thin layer of rust. 2. Type of silver amulet Refers to Buddha amulets that have a white interior that resembles silver. which is mainly a mixture of lead and tin. It will have more tin than lead and mixed with mercury for the purpose of making the hot metal run faster and adhere to the details of the Buddha mold better. This type of Buddha amulet has many formulas of ingredients. Each monk in each city is therefore not the same. They differ in the details of the ingredients. Can be roughly separated according to the nature of the rust on the Buddha's surface and the commonly seen colors. There are 3 characteristics. - White silver or mercury surface The amulet's surface looks white like new. But if you look carefully, you will find that it is an old item. The skin will look dry. There are small pellets of mercury on the surface mixed with the stains of the crypt. When viewed with a magnifying glass, the color of the mercury can be seen as shiny. - Black skin or crow's feet rust. This type of amulet has black or brown skin. That is, on the surface of the Buddha image there will be stains clinging to it and rust starting to destroy some of the metal. If it's an old item, first of all. The contents must be dry. Secondly, there must be cracks, splits, or natural decay. That is, the separation must come from the inside out. It's not from the outside to the inside, like they put acid in it to make it look like spots. Thirdly, the surface of the Buddha image will not be smooth and tight. Fourthly, the edges on the sides of the Buddha image will not be sharp. But if it's a fake or a new one, it will look completely opposite to the real thing. - Meat with flakes Some people call this type of Buddha amulet “Chin Krob” because the outer surface looks crispy. The surface of the Buddha image is very weathered and looks like scales of a fish or patchouli. Since the metal has disappeared, collectors of old metals have named this metal "metal". “Chin Kledi” or “Chin Crispy” 3. Green meat type Refers to Buddha amulets made from a mixture of lead and zinc. The Buddha's complexion is green mixed with black or mixed with gray. Previous generations called it “Chinsangkhawanon” because someone once found Chinsangkhawanorn nails contained in the amulet treasury. If it's an old item, it's already very old. The amulet's flesh will look dry. The Buddha's surface is black with a gray tinge. Above the Buddha's surface is rust and a cloudy white wax. The upper part is clear. Embedded together tightly and complexly, accumulating in a natural manner similar to the growth of flesh from the inside out. In addition, if it is a Buddha amulet, it will also have stains from the crypt. Some Buddha statues have white patches and yellow stains appearing in shallow crevices. The old green Buddha amulets must have rust called Some are "pimp's egg rust" and some "cow tallow rust" and the surface of the Buddha image is bumpy, similar to the wax of an old green Buddha amulet. The surface of the Buddha image is black mixed with gray. Above the surface of the Buddha image there is a cloudy white wax rust. on clear Embedded together tightly and complexly, accumulating in a natural manner similar to the growth of flesh from the inside out. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Shipping information:- Orders will be processed for shipment within 1 - 3 business days of receiving, not including weekends or holidays.
