Thai Amulet Phra Khun Pean Jomsurin — LP Mongkol
Sumnaksong Wat Koadasapuang | Khmer Aukkara Yantra | Phra Rahu
This beautiful Thai Amulet Phra Khun Pean Jomsurin, blessed by Luang Por Mongkol (LP Mongkol) of Sumnaksong Wat Koadasapuang, is a meaningful edition created with the purpose of supporting the renovation of the temple's main viharn. It combines the traditional Khun Pean form with an important Khmer-derived Yantra design studied and preserved through the master's spiritual lineage.
One of the most interesting features of this edition is the Yantra incorporated into the Khun Pean. According to the tradition associated with LP Mongkol, the Yantra was derived from old Khmer Aukkara (Khmer sacred lettering) that he studied from his teachers. The Yantra is arranged to encircle the central design in a continuous circular form, symbolically representing a protective boundary or shield surrounding the worshipper.
Beneath the Yantra is an image of Phra Rahu, a powerful and widely respected figure in Thai spiritual tradition. Phra Rahu is traditionally associated with the transformation of bad fortune into better fortune, helping devotees symbolically overcome difficulties, obstacles, and unfavorable circumstances.
The central Phra Khun Pean is another highly recognizable figure in Thai amulet culture. Khun Pean amulets have traditionally been associated with Metta Maha Saneh and Maha Niyom—concepts relating to charm, attraction, goodwill, popularity, and being well-regarded by others.
