Phra Pidta Plod Nhe Lang Yant Tree

In the year B.E.2521, Luang Pu Toh intended to bless a batch of Phra Pidta amulets for at least 5 rain retreats before distributing them out to raise funds for the temple. However, Luang Pu Toh only managed to bless this batch of Phra Pidta from B.E.2521 up to B.E.2523, i.e. 3 rain retreats or Sam Traimas, before passing away on 5th March B.E. 2524. This batch of Phra Pidta was blessed by Luang Pu Toh for the longest period compared to Phra Pidta amulets from other batches.

This batch of Phra Pidta Roon 3 Traimas has a few styles and materials as follows:

It is well-known and recorded that Phra Kru Viroj Kittikhun had produced many batches of Phra Pidta for Luang Pu Toh to consecrate. Luang Pu Toh emphasised a lot on the radiating of loving-kindness (Pae Metta) and he always blessed Phra Pidta amulets of different batches by radiating his loving-kindness and compassion. Some models of Phra Pidta amulets, for example Phra Pidta Phim Jumbo Neuang, which Luang Pu Toh spent only a short 7 days for the blessing but there were many experiences shared by the wearers about their successes in life.

Phra Kru Viroj Kittikhun had reserved a few thousand pieces of these Phra Pidta Roon Sam Traimas amulets to offer to the Royal Family. His Majesty The King Bhumibol and Her Majesty The Queen Sirikit distributed these pieces to the government officials and officers of the uniformed-rank. Many of these pieces were also given to the armed forces personnel so that they will be safe when they are executing their duties. A number of these soldiers shared their experiences after they survived near-death experiences while performing their duties, which made this batch of Phra Pidta amulets even more popular and more valuable than it already was.

Many senior meditation masters of the past generation had tested and meditated on this batch of Phra Pidta amulets to understand its energy. Many of them gave the feedback that the energy radiated from this batch of Phra Pidta amulets is equivalent to the energy power radiated from Somdej Wat Bangkhunphrom amulets which were consecrated by the eminent Somdej Phra Buddhacharn Toh (Phrommarangsi). It was specially observed that the energy radiated from Phra Pidta Jumbo Song was the strongest, sharpest and the clearest, most probably due to the fact that a number of pieces were immersed in holy water (Chae Nammon) during the consecration ceremony.

For this batch of Phra Pidta Roon 3 Traimas which Luang Pu Toh blessed continuously for 3 years, many devotees experienced miracles which were shared mouth to mouth. All these experiences mentioned about success, good fortune and being popular and respected by their people of all classes of society. Many of them even shared that they became prosperous and were free from their debts which they owed. Due to these positive experiences recounted by the devotees, Phra Pidta amulets from this batch has always been sought after by collectors. The amulets were already unavailable in the temple not long after distribution and the imitations found today look almost identical to the genuine pieces. Prices of this batch of Phra Pidta Roon Trimas amulets has risen very high over the years.

This piece shown is Phra Pidta Lang Yant Duang Tree, Nur Phong Bailan in its original, unworn and beautiful condition.
