Off Pongpat Wachirabunjong, having been in Thailand show business for over 20 years, is a famous leading actor with an excellent performance. He is also known as the producer of cable TV series and the director of Thai movies. With ample experiences of playing in over 100 dramas and movies, in 2008 he directed a movie Happy Birthday in which many new-generation actors participated.
A talented actor, producer and director who made fine TV series and movies, Off Pongpat plays another role: a connoisseur and a collector of Buddha amulets. As a child he, born in Kamphaeng Phet Province, where is home to lots of great and famous Buddha amulets, had the chance to see and know many Buddha amulets whose types include Phra Soomkor, Phra Kampaeng Med Khanoon, Phra Nang Phaya Kam Phaeng, etc.

He is fairly interested in amulets and takes chances to learn from his friend Thep Kamphaeng, a Buddha-amulet connoisseur, how to tell versions of most popular amulets.

The list of nice Buddha amulets owned by Off Pongpat consists of Somdej, Phra Rod Wat Mahawan in Lamphun Province, Phra Pidta Luang Phor Khao Wat Kruewan in Chonburi Province, and so on. His collections of takruts can't be neglected, in which the silver takrut salika Luang Pu Iam Wat Sapan Sung is the one he wears often.
Here are the three Buddha amulets he wears in turn: the small and perfect Phra Soomkor which is one of the "Benjapakee" (meaning "set of 5 important amulets"), made of holy soils and ashes of scriptures, and the best amulet of his hometown Kamphaeng Phet Province; the large, green, and beautifully-shaped Phra Rod Wat Mahawan; the last one is Phra Pidta Luang Phor Khao Wat Kruewan. All've been certified as genuine.
Off Pongpat, like ordinary Thais, takes Buddha amulets as an emotional support which will direct him to do good deeds and keep away from committing bad things.
He thinks that amulet-wearers must have the understanding of the harmony between amulets and us, which can be inferred from the fact whether your daily lives become smoother or not; a cheaper amulet might be more appropriate for you if it indeed enhances your lives. Everyone has different fortunes; for example, one who works hard might have earned few incomes, while one who does few works might still gain good returns. More good deeds should be practiced in this life.
