Historical Significance
The Phra Somdej Hubaysri 9 Chan Nur Phong Namon Daeng is attributed to B.E. 2515, a period when Luang Phor Kuay of Wat Kositaram was already widely revered by devotees who sought his blessings for safety, stability, and smooth fortune. Within his Somdej family, the “Hubaysri” style is especially recognizable—refined features, a strong classical presence, and the distinctive nine-step base that echoes older Somdej symbolism.
What makes this edition stand out visually is the Namon Daeng character—warm red tones and a compact powder body that collectors often associate with carefully prepared sacred blends and matured curing behavior.
Reverse — compact powder tablet with natural curing lines and gentle shrinkage marks often seen in mature Namon blends.
Contextual Insight: “Hubaysri 9 Chan” is more than a mold name—it is a message. The nine steps represent gradual ascent: merit, discipline, and steadiness over time. In the Luang Phor Kuay tradition, Somdej is not only worn for protection; it is also a daily reminder to keep the mind calm, speak carefully, and walk the path step by step.
Temple of Origin & Master’s Discipline
Wat Kositaram (Chai Nat) is inseparable from the life and practice of Luang Phor Kuay. Devotees remember him for strict inner discipline and practical wicha used to support laypeople—especially protection, stability, and “smooth passage” through obstacles. Many releases from this lineage were also connected to temple needs and community merit-making, reflecting the principle that sacred objects should encourage faith and good deeds.
Obverse — Hubaysri facial form and the nine-step base profile are key identity cues for this Somdej family.
Materials & Craftsmanship
- Nur Phong Namon Daeng: a red-toned sacred powder body, typically associated with carefully blended wicha powders and temple-prepared materials.
- Hubaysri 9 Chan mold: “big-ear” Somdej styling seated on nine steps—symbolic of gradual progress, steady virtue, and layered blessings.
- Collector cues (practical): correct proportions, natural powder pores, consistent warm tone, and age-appropriate surface character.
Spiritual Significance & Traditional Benefits
In Thai devotional belief, Somdej from Luang Phor Kuay’s lineage is often treasured for: Klaew Klaad (safe passage and avoiding danger), Metta Mahaniyom (support and goodwill from people), and Maha Lap (smooth opportunities). Many devotees wear it for steadiness—when work feels uncertain, when travel is frequent, or when one needs calm strength while facing pressure.
Rarity & Collector Notes
Within the Somdej category, Hubaysri 9 Chan (BE2515) is widely discussed because it blends classical Somdej symbolism with Luang Phor Kuay’s unmistakable identity.
