Phra Pidta Lang Phuttho Yant • Nur Pun Sek • BE 2499
Mae Chee Boon Ruean • Wat Awutwikasitaram (Wat Awuth), Bangkok • With Thaprachan Certificate
Overview — a classic Pidta “sealing the senses” on the front, with Phuttho yantra on the reverse: inward discipline paired with protective awakening (traditional belief).
Collector Lens
In Thai amulet culture, Pidta is not merely “a protective image.” It is a lesson in practice: close the doors of distraction, return to the breath, and keep the mind upright. This BE2499 piece is especially admired because it carries both the Pidta posture (front) and the Phuttho yantra (back) — a pairing collectors often read as “restraint + awakening,” a complete cycle for those who want protection that begins with mental discipline (traditional belief framing).

Contextual Insight: “Pidta” is a training symbol: close the eyes to noise, close the ears to gossip, close the mind to panic. When paired with Phuttho yantra, the message becomes very direct — protection starts from awareness, not fear (traditional belief).
1) Purpose of the Making

- Targeted users: lay practitioners and monastics seeking stability when facing misfortune, spiritual pressure, or “heavy” life periods.
2) Materials Used (Nur Pun Sek)
