Background and Purpose
In B.E. 2534, Luang Phor Phat commissioned this special edition of Phra Pidta—known as Roon Podni—to spiritually assist devotees burdened with financial difficulties, such as debt, loans, or overdue payments. Proceeds from amulet distribution supported temple renovations, community welfare, and merit-making projects.
Design and Iconography
-
Front: Displays the classic Phra Pidta posture, with hands covering eyes—a powerful symbol of spiritual shielding and detachment from external turmoil.
-
Back: Often bears the “Podni” inscription or temple seal, signifying its special financial relief intent.
-
Mold: Cast from the same renowned Phra Pidta mold originally used by Luang Phor Toh, preserving that batch’s sharper facial features, rounded limbs, and distinctive body proportions.
Material: Nur Phong
The amulets were pressed using a mixture of sacred powders, including:
-
Pollen and herb powders from ceremonial offerings
-
Incense and candle ash collected from extended chanting ceremonies
-
Crushed fragments of older Phra Pidta amulets and temple votive tablets
-
Soil and ball clays sourced from temple grounds and regional holy sites
-
Wax and soot residue from Pali recitations and merit-making rituals
This combination created a firm, dark-gray to charcoal-colored amulet with a photo-realistic texture and subtle sheen.
Consecration Ritual
The Phra Pidta Roon Podni was consecrated in a formal Phutthaphisek ceremony at Wat Ko Kaew Arun Kham:
-
Officiated by Luang Phor Phat, known for his deep meditative presence and spiritual charisma
-
Accompanied by several respected monks from the region
-
Included recitations of Pali katha for release from debt, abundant chanting, and meditation empowerment rounds
-
Final blessings were applied on a designated financially auspicious date (often aligned with lunar or astrological timing) to strengthen the “debt relief” intention
Believed Virtues
The Roon Podni amulet is especially honored by those facing financial hardship. It is reputed to offer:
-
Kongkrapan: protection from adversity or scams
-
Luck and Kai: for financial turnaround or debt relief
-
Metta Mahaniyom: increased goodwill from lenders or business partners
-
Peace of mind, supporting mental balance during economic stress
-
Enhanced refuge in meditation and spiritual practice, fostering clearer guidance
Connection to Luang Phor Toh
-
The use of Luang Phor Toh’s mold connects this amulet line with his powerful spiritual legacy
-
It inherits not only physical design but also the energetic imprint associated with Toh’s own amulets, highly esteemed across Thailand
-
This lineage enhances the Roon Podni’s spiritual significance and collector value
Collectability and Care
-
Authentic B.E. 2534 pieces can often be identified by the Podni inscription or official temple seal, as well as by the mold’s distinctive shape
-
The amulet is moderately rare, as production numbers were limited to the temple’s project needs
-
Best-preserved specimens—especially those still in original packaging—are highly prized by collectors focused on contemporary Phra Pidta and Luang Phor Toh’s mold lineage
