A '''Thai Buddha amulet''' (((lang-th|พระเครื่อง)); ((rtgs|''phrakhrueang''))), often referred to academically as a "[[votive]] tablet", is a type of [[Thailand|Thai]] [[Buddhist]] blessed item. It is used to raise funds to help a temple's operations. A Thai Buddhist monk will give an amulet to Buddhists as a "gift" after they donate money or offerings to the temple. The amulets are then no longer considered a "gift" but a "tool" to enhance luck in different aspects of life. <ref>((Cite web |title=9 Quintessential Thai Amulets |url=https://www.thailandfoundation.or.th/culture_heritage/9-quintessential-thai-amulets/ |access-date=2022-07-22 |website=Thailand Foundation |language=en-US))</ref> Local people also use amulets to improve their marriage, wealth, health, love, and relationships.

It is the Thai tradition to place amulets under a [[stupa]] or other temple structure during its construction. When the structure collapses, many amulets can be found, with some amulets being centuries old .<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.komchadluek.net/detail/20130421/156588/%E0%B8%81%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B8%E0%B9%81%E0%B8%95%E0%B8%81!%E0%B9%81%E0%B8%AB%E0%B9%88%E0%B8%82%E0%B8%B8%E0%B8%94%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%8B%E0%B8%B5%E0%B8%A2%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%9E%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B0%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%8A%E0%B9%88%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%9A%E0%B8%B9%E0%B8%8A%E0%B8%B23%E0%B8%A5..html|title=(in Thai) Amulets found under old 200-year-old stupa, people came to dig, and collector paid up to 3 Million for them.|date=2013-04-21|access-date=2015-09-07))</ref><ref>((cite web|url=http://www.matichon.co.th/news_detail.php?newsid=1434426886|title=(in Thai) Thousand of century-old amulets found, amulet collectors flocked the place.|date=2013-04-21|access-date=2015-09-07))</ref>

Almost every Thai Buddhist has at least one amulet. It is common to see both young and elderly people wear at least one amulet around the neck to feel closer to Buddha.

[[File:Bo Lek Nam Phi (Nam Pi iron mines) 29.jpg|thumb|Pressing die to make plaster amulets]]

Amulets are made using the Buddha image, an image of a famous monk, and sometimes even an image of the monks who made the amulets. Amulets vary in size, shape, and materials such as plaster, bone, wood, or metal. They may include ash from incense or old temple structures or hair from a famous monk to add protective power to the amulets.<ref name="CNNtravel">((cite news|url=http://travel.cnn.com/bangkok/shop/bangkok-buddhist-amulet-market-330873|title=Bangkok Buddhist amulet market|work=CNN Travel|date=2009-10-21|access-date=2015-09-05))</ref><ref>((cite news |last1=Philip |first1=Russell |title=วัตถุมงคล |url=https://www.muamulet.com/ |access-date=29 September 2023))</ref> After the amulets are made, the maker will then ask the monks who live in the temple, or monks from other temples, to congregate in order to chant, pray, and bless the amulets. This process can take anywhere from a week to more than three years to complete.

When a new amulet is freshly made from plaster, its raw appearance may not be very attractive. By adding a protective casing, the appearance of the amulet is enhanced and, at the same time, the amulet inside is protected. The price of an amulet not only depends on its appearance, but also on its scarcity, its maker, its age, and its divine powers.

Famous markets for amulets include the [[Tha Phrachan]] Market next to [[Thammasat University]].<ref>((cite news |last1=Pergament |first1=Danielle |title=Amulets in Bangkok |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2005/12/18/travel/amulets-in-bangkok.html?_r=0 |accessdate=7 August 2018 |work=New York Times |date=2005-12-18))</ref> However, many amulets at the market are considered to be fake replicas that have not been blessed by a monk ((Contradict-inline|date=March 2022)). Genuine amulets are rarely found at the Tha Phrachan Market. Many collectors and devotees keep a trusted dealer of authentic amulets. The study and authentication of real amulets is as complex a matter as is to be found in the [[antique]] trade, or in similar niches such as [[stamp collecting]].

Forgeries are rife, and it takes decades of study and experience to develop the skills needed to recognize authentic amulets. There are millions of editions from thousands of temples, spanning centuries, and it is not possible for one person to have the necessary knowledge to authenticate every single edition. Hence, each expert has their own chosen line of amulets, of a particular type, temple, or artisan, which they choose as their personal field of expertise.

==Famous Thai amulets==
===Benja Phakhi===
The most famous of Thai amulets are the set of five rarest and highly sought after amulets ''Phra Somdej Wat Rakhang'' (((lang-th|พระสมเด็จวัดระฆัง))), ''Phra Rod'' (((lang-th|พระรอด))), ''Phra Nang Phaya'' (((lang-th|พระนางพญา))), ''Phra Phong Suphan'' (((lang-th|พระผงสุพรรณ))), and ''Phra Sum Kor'' (((lang-th|พระซุ้มกอ))), together called ''Benja Phakhi'' (((lang-th|เบญจภาคี))).<ref name="ManagerBenjaPhakhi">((cite web|url=http://www.manager.co.th/Travel/ViewNews.aspx?NewsID=9570000078573|title=(in Thai) Follow the Trail of Benja Phakhi, The Origins of Most Sought After by Amulet Collectors|date=2014-07-13|access-date=2015-09-05))</ref> They are valued at over 10 million [[Thai baht|baht]].<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.komchadluek.net/detail/20140805/189548.html|title=(in Thai) Phra Benja Phakhi|date=2014-08-05|access-date=2015-09-05))</ref>

''Phra Somdej'' (((lang-th|พระสมเด็จ))) amulets are the "king of amulets", also known as "lucky amulets". Each amulet collector must have one and it is the best and foremost choice for the new believer in Thai amulets. Para Somdej has the noblest status in Buddhism. The most famous of this kind is the ''Phra Somdej Wat Rakhang'' produced around 1866 to 1871, by [[Somdej Toh]] of [[Wat Rakhangkhositaram|Wat Rakhang Khositaram]] (((lang-th|วัดระฆังโฆษิตาราม))),<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.komchadluek.net/detail/20150207/200952.html|title=(in Thai) Phra Somdej Wat Rakhang, large die variant with names given for all 5 individual dies|date=2015-02-07|access-date=2015-10-04))</ref> who is also one of the most respected monks in Thailand.

''Phra Somdej'' [[Chitralada Royal Villa|Chitralada]] are the amulets made by King [[Bhumibol]] himself and awarded from 1965 to 1970 to selected soldiers, policemen, government officers, and citizens.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.komchadluek.net/detail/20130504/157523/%E0%B8%9E%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B0%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%A1%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%94%E0%B9%87%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%88%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%95%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%B8%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%A2%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%9B%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%96%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%97%E0%B8%B1%E0%B9%89%E0%B8%87%E0%B9%81%E0%B8%9C%E0%B9%88%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%94%E0%B8%B4%E0%B8%99!.html|title=(in Thai) Highly Desirable Phra Somdej Chitralada|date=2013-05-04|access-date=2015-09-09))</ref> No more than 3,000 of these amulets were made. Each amulet is accompanied with certificate stating the name of the recipient, date, and amulet number. As of 2013, a Phra Somdej Chitralada is worth at least two million baht.

In general, most Phra Somdej amulets do not depict the eyes, nose, or mouth of the Buddha. The Buddha in Phra Somdej is seated on a three-level throne representing the three worlds system of [[Buddhist cosmology]]. Although the Phra Somdej has later appeared with five, seven, nine, ten, or thirteen level thrones, the concept of the throne is still the same. Like other Thai amulets, Phra Somdej is usually made of temple dirt, pollen, monk's hair as well as other relics from famous monks or the holy robe "[[Civara|cīvara]]" worn by the monk.

The functions of Phra Somdej amulets range from protection to enhanced personal relationships, better health, protection from black magic, blocking disasters, and to strengthen careers as well as adjusting the human aura field. Most importantly, it can help bring peace to different walks of life.

===Phra Rod===
''Phra Rod'' refers to amulets discovered in the early King [[Chulalongkorn]] era inside a partially collapsed stupa in Wat Mahawan (((lang-th|วัดมหาวัน))) in [[Lamphun Province]]. It was named Phra Rod because the Buddha image in the amulet matched the ancient Buddha image in the temple's [[ubosot]] called Phra Rod Luang (((lang-th|พระรอดหลวง))). Legends say that when the temple was part of [[Hariphunchai]] Kingdom, the amulets were crafted by [[Rishi|Ruesi]] to hand out to citizens during wars and those remaining were placed inside the temple's stupa.<ref name="ManagerBenjaPhakhi"/>

===Phra Nang Phaya===
''Phra Nang Phaya'' amulets from [[Wat Nang Phaya]] in [[Phitsanulok Province]] is believed to have been commissioned by Queen [[Wisutkasat]] of the [[Ayutthaya Kingdom]]. The amulet was discovered when workers dug up an area in the temple to prepare the stage for King [[Chulalongkorn]]'s visit for the [[Casting (metalworking)|casting]] of a replica of famous Buddha image [[Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat#Phra Phuttha Chinnarat|Phra Phuttha Chinnarat]] (((lang-th|พระพุทธชินราช))). This amulet was also discovered in nearby temples such as [[Wat Ratchaburana, Phitsanulok|Wat Ratchaburana]] (((lang-th|วัดราชบูรณะ))).<ref name="ManagerBenjaPhakhi"/>

===Phra Phong Suphan===
[[File:Somkor.png|alt=Phra Somkor (ancient) |thumb|Phra Somkor]]
''Phra Phong Suphan'' is from Wat Phra Si Rattana Mahathat (((lang-th|วัดพระศรีรัตนมหาธาตุ))) of [[Suphanburi Province]]. There were thieves who came to dig under the large stupa in the temple and stole amulets and tablets, some made of gold. In 1913 the Suphanburi governor ordered a formal dig to uncover buried amulets. Phra Phong Suphan was among the amulets found.<ref name="ManagerBenjaPhakhi"/>

===Phra Sum Kor===
[[File:Somkor ancient.jpg|alt=Phra Somkor |thumb|Phra Somkor]]
''Phra Sum Kor'' is from [[Kamphaeng Phet Province]]. When [[Somdej Toh]] came to visit relatives in 1849, he found Phra Sum Kor amulets at Wat Phraboromthat Nakhonchum (((lang-th|วัดพระบรมธาตุนครชุม))) together with tablets explaining the amulet making process. He later used the instructions to make his own Phra Somdej Wat Rakhang. This amulet is found throughout Thung Sethi (((lang-th|ทุ่งเศรษฐี))) in [[Kamphaeng Phet Province|Kamphang Phet Province]].<ref name="ManagerBenjaPhakhi"/>

''Phra Khun Phaen'' (((lang-th|พระขุนแผน))) are amulets which usually feature the Buddha in [[samadhi]] or other [[Mudra#Bh.C5.ABmispar.C5.9Ba_Mudr.C4.81|mudra]] and should not be confused with the "Khun Phaen" sans "phra", which are amulets made in the likeness of the Phra Khun Phaen, but with a separate deity/historical figure. The original Phra Khun Phaen amulets came before the Khun Phaen but the name is derived from the popularity of the Khun Phaen folklore of the time, and because there was no particular name given to the Phra Khun Phaen, the name was simply borrowed with the attached "phra" (พระ) to denote holiness. Khun Phaen are amulets with the image of Khun Phaen of the classic [[Khun Chang Khun Phaen]] folklore. According to the folklore, Khun Phaen was proficient in using magical powers including amulets and other items in battle. Khun Phaen also used a love formula to attract women. Thus, one of the main functions of Khun Phaen is to enhance human relationships: personal relationships, marriage and heterosexual relationships. Also, it helps to enhance career success. The Khun Phaen amulets range from near identical likeness to the Phra Khun Phaen to the more intricate molds containing imagery of the infamous Kumarn Tong (golden child) to Khun Paen and his many consorts.

===Jatukham Rammathep===
((main article|Jatukham Rammathep))

''Jatukham Rammathep'' (((lang-th|จตุคามรามเทพ))) is the name of two princes from [[Srivijaya]] Kingdom.<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.nationmultimedia.com/2007/04/17/national/national_30032023.php|title=Who is Jatukham Rammathep?|date=2007-04-17|access-date=2015-09-08))</ref> [[Nakhon Si Thammarat Province]] locals consider Jatukham and Rammthep as the guardian angels of the city. The Jatukham Rammathep amulet was first created by police Khun Phantharak Rajjadej (((lang-th|ขุนพันธรักษ์ราชเดช))) in 1987 as part of Nakhon Si Thammarat's [[Lak Mueang]] establishment. The amulet is round, typically with the image of [[Hindu]] deities and around 5&nbsp;cm in diameter. It became popular in the early-2000s, especially during the time of Khun Phantharak Rajjadej's funeral on 5 July 2006 till mid-2007. The amulet was believed to protect its owner from danger and to make its owner rich. As many as 150 series of Jatukham Rammathep amulet production were planned for the year 2007 and the value of market for the amulet reached 20 billion baht that year.<ref>((cite web|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-thailand-amulets-idUSBKK18907820070712|title=Thai amulet craze "unacceptable face of Buddhism"|work=Reuters|date=2007-07-11|access-date=2015-09-05))</ref> In late-2007 it appeared that the Jatukham Rammathep amulet bubble had burst.

===Phra Kring===
The ''Phra Kring'' is a metallic statuette in the image of a meditating Buddha, which is only made in Thailand. The Phra Kring is essentially a [[Mahayana]]-style Buddha image, despite the fact that Thailand adheres to [[Theravada]] Buddhism. The beliefs about the powers of the Phra Kring, are that the Phra Kring is the image of [[Bhaisajyaguru|Pra Pai Sachaya Kuru]] (พระไภษัชยคุรุ Bhaisajyaguru, 藥師佛 Yàoshīfó, in Chinese, or in Japanese 'Yakushi'), the medicine Buddha. The image is normally in the posture of sitting and holding an alms bowl or a guava, gourd or a vajra. This was a fully enlightened Buddha, who achieved purity of body and mind, and who was a great teacher of human beings, who has the miracle that he who hears his name in passing, or see his image, will be healed, and live a long healthy and prosperous life with wealthy standing. The Pra Kring Buddha, or ''Bhaisajyaguru'' is one of seven Bhaisajayagurus and is said to have two Bodhisattvas under him; ''Pra Suriya Bprapaa Potisat'' (Suriya Bhrapa Bodhisattva) and ''Pra Jantra Bprapaa Potisat'' (Chandra Bhrapa Bodhisattva). Of all the other Buddhist countries who revere it, only Thailand makes its amulet. The Phra Kring in most cases (except in the odd example where Muan Sarn powders prevent the sound), will have a rattling bead inside it. The reason for this rattle sound, made by a sacred bead of Chanuan Muan Sarn or other relic, is that it is the name of the medicine Buddha resounding, as you pass along your way, healing and blessing you with safety, health, prosperity, metta for auspicious friendly loving kindness. Some Phra Kring however do not make a sound that is audible to humans, but still have a piece of Chanuan within, which emits the name of the medicine Buddha silently, only audible on the spiritual plane.

==Amulet taboos==
# Do not wear Buddhist amulets under the waist. For most amulets, wear it on the neck or above the waist. This tradition is to show respect to the Buddha. [[Takrut|Takruts]], another type of amulet made in Thailand but without a monk or Buddhist image, can be put inside pants pockets.
# Do not put a Buddhist amulet in a bedroom if you expect to engage in any sexual activity there.
# Pray before and after wearing an amulet.
# Remove amulets when bathing.

==Prayer==

===Vandana===
''Namo tassa bhagavato arahato samma sambuddhassa'': This is a prayer to honor to the blessed one, the exalted one, the fully enlightened one. People usually say this prayer three times before and after wearing on the amulet. Saying this prayer means showing absolute respect to the Buddha. This prayer can also be said before and after meditation.

''Buddhaṃ Ārādhanānaṃ, Dhammaṃ Ārādhanānaṃ, Sanghaṃ Ārādhanānaṃ'' (make a wish or prayer) ''Buddhaṃ pasiddhi mē, Dhammaṃ pasiddhi mē, Sanghaṃ pasiddhi mē:'' This is a special mantra or prayer in [[Pāli]] for praying to amulets to beseech blessings. It is called ''Kata Ārātanā Pra Krueang.''<ref>([http://thailand-amulets.net/pra-kata-mantras-for-chanting/special-kata-for-thai-amulets/ Special kata for Thai Amulets] Ajarn Spencer Littlewood)</ref>
