The Chang Maak (chewed betel) from Kruba Phongpon - A Buddhist Relic
Kruba Phongpon is a very well known monk in Chiang Rai who is revered for his attained level of Samathi, and therefore he sometimes releases his Chang Maak to his disciples to pass on its benefits, and support them as they support him.
People want this Chang Maak from him because his saliva represents his personal magic, and is believed to bring holiness and protection from curses, and all bad things. Those who own this chewed betel receive the power of Metta Maha Saneah, and it is good for negotiations, a retail business and attracting customers. It is also believed to have Klaew Klaat to protect from danger, evil spirits bad magic and curses. It brings universal attributes, and when holding it, it is easy to feel that that is the case.
The reason this is such a sought after piece is that when above a certain level of meditation, the saliva becomes magic, and chewing herbs like this is the way it is passed on. In Daoism it is called 'Jade Water', but I am still trying to find out the name for the Saliva itself here.
Measures 1.55" in its fine silver and needs the Namo Dtassa kata.
Keep this item one level below the Buddha on a deity shrine.
Chang Maak is rare, and I only have one.
