Biography

History of the Making of Phra Khun Paen Plai Khu Nur Din

Luang Phor Khruen Amaro

Wat Sangkhositaram, Bang Pla Ma, Suphan Buri

Era: Crafted prior to B.E. 2500 (before 1957 CE)

Background and Purpose

The Phra Khun Paen Plai Khu amulet, created by Luang Phor Khruen (พระครูโฆสิตธรรมสาร), was intended as a protective and auspicious charm, blending spiritual potency with rare sacred materials. It was made to promote metta mahaniyom (loving-kindness and popularity), kha khaay (trade and fortune), and kongkrapan (invulnerability and protection) for its wearers. The name “Plai Khu” refers to its believed power to attract love and unity, often associated with harmony in relationships and business.

Material (Nur Din – Sacred Clay)

This amulet was made from nur din (sacred clay) that had been specially collected from multiple holy and ancient sites within Suphan Buri and neighboring regions. The clay was mixed with sacred substances such as:

• Powdered incense ashes from past rituals

• Old temple bricks from ruined pagodas

• Pollen and herbs from auspicious plants used in rituals

• Ground powder of yant (sacred scripts) inscribed on palm leaves

• Plai Khu root powder (a powerful herb in Thai esoteric tradition believed to enhance charm and harmony)

Each batch was ritually mixed and molded by hand, often stamped with sacred yantra or pressed into wooden molds prepared and blessed by Luang Phor Khruen himself.

Consecration Rituals

The consecration (pluksek) ceremony was performed over multiple Buddhist Lent seasons, both at Wat Sangkhositaram and during joint ceremonies with other temples. Luang Phor Khruen, a master of khatha (incantations) and Thai-Khmer mystical arts, recited powerful invocations inherited from his teachers, including Luang Phor Nong and Luang Phor Chat.

The amulets were often immersed in holy water during sacred chanting and stored in the ubosot (ordination hall) for continuous absorption of spiritual energy.

Rarity and Value
