An Original Luang Phor Pina Bone and Earth Dao - good fortune - original red case circa 1997 via the collection of Ajarn Verataep. You can see it on the blessing tray.
   Luang Phor Pina is one of the greatest Prai magicians of this modern age, and he is my spiritual hero. A disciple of Ajarn Man, he walked to India on Tudong in the late 50's and came back a wild eyed, exceptional magician. His work with Prai is legendary, especially for raw bone pieces, and for using the body of nuns who died in accidents to produce his greatest range of amulets using the product Mae Nua Hom, the woman of sweet smelling flesh. This is from a supernatural occurance where a corpse has a sweet smell, so Luang Phor would use the whole of that corpse, and then another to produce some of the greatest Prai amulets ever made.
   This piece came from the collection of Ajarn Verataep, who used to visit the temple while Luang Phor was alive, and I have bought quite a few pieces from him over the years. This is a bone and earth Dao amulet (Dao = Star) from around 1997 that comes in its original case, with the usual 5 pointed star on one side (for the 5 Buddhas) and an 8 pointed star on the other for the 8 fold path.
These were a staple of the temple products and came in a huge range of designs and prices, with the top range using real rubies to produce incredible pieces for the rich at that time. They seek good fortune for the bearer and are renowned for aiding your destiny.This is a good example of the magic that these Dao can bring to your life, which comes from the potency of the female prai used and Luang Phor's blessing. They had the best sources of Prai available as they had an over for cremation in the grounds.
This is a perfect size for ladies and in great condition.
A good example of the work of Luang Phor Pina.
This measures 1.3" and is a classic of his work that comes with Luang Phor's amulet kata.
Classic Prai magic that goes on the ghost altar.
