【Efficacious Amulets】LP Phan Amulet Made A Butcher Drop His Knife



 
Luang Phor Phan (Thai: หลวงพ่อผัน), a guru monk of Wat Ratcharoen (Thai: วัดราษฎร์เจริญ), Saraburi Province, had made plenty of self-portrait amulets in several editions with versatile and abounding efficacious events.

Of all Luang Phor Phan amulets, the most popular edition is "Luang Phor Phan self-portrait amulet, Rian Sema, 1st batch," whose front side is a sitting-meditation image of Luang Phor Phan and which was made in honor of the promotion of Luang Phor Phan.

When it comes to the most well-known edition of Luang Phor Phan amulets, the "Pig Stabbed Edition" couldn't be overlooked. "Pig Stabbed Edition" amulets, whose front side also displays a sitting-meditation image of Luang Phor Phan, were made for the purpose of raising funds for renovating the temple.

The name "Pig Stabbed" was derived from a story that a butcher, after receiving a Luang Phor Phan amulet, went to the slaughterhouse as usual. The amulet was put into a small bag placed in his shirt pocket. The butcher threw a pig onto the ground; at the meantime, from his pocket slipped the amulet, which was covered by the pig.

Grasping a sharp knife, the butcher was going to cut the pig's throat to kill it. Unbelievably, the pig skin failed to be stabbed by the knife and the pig remained well without being hurt.

The startled butcher had the pig overturned, found the covered amulet, and suddenly figured out that it was the efficaciousness of Luang Phor Phan amulet. The story had a happy ending: the pig escaped from being killed to death, and the butcher no longer performed any butcher's duties.

The efficacious stories of Luang Phor Phan "Pig Stabbed Edition" amulets spread among Luang Phor Phan's disciples and Buddha-amulet collectors. "Pig Stabbed Edition" amulets, hardly seen now, are taken as Saraburi Province's invaluable sacred objects with prohibitive prices.
