About Me

Many people get to hear my name.
Many different things are said about me, but little of them are based in any truth. This is because i am a very recluse person, and rarely meet people. I am also a very idiosynchratic person and have many peculiar traits.
This causes people to misunderstand me often
About my devotion to Sak-Yant.Com;
I became devoted to this matter as a result of being a devout Buddhist, Practicant of Magic, and amateur Anthropologist, as well as being a professional tattooist.
My meeting with my first and most compassionate master HP Pant goagulated the factors which led me to become swallowed up by the magic of sak yant thai temple tattooing... over the years my attitude towards the subject, and understanding of sak yant Buddha magic has constantly mutated.. i shall hope to document this here as i get time in a kind of diary blog. I believe it now necessary to explain the different views and beliefs regarding sak yant and Buddhism/Dhamma.

>>> Coming soon........
Do not believe in what you have heard; do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations; do not believe anything because it is rumored and spoken of by many; do not believe merely because the written statement of some old sage is produced; do not believe in conjectures; do not believe merely in the authority of your teachers and elders. After observation and analysis, when it agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it (The Buddha)

Thai Buddhist Amulets and how to make them

I have been missing in the south of Thailand for the last month researching methods, ingredients and production methods for the creation of amulets, and joining forces with various master monks to create a cost free amulet of great power to distribute to people for free.
The amulet will most probably be called "Run Maha Songsarn Plod Tukh" meaning "the great compassion release from suffering edition"
This amulet will have some extremely rare and powerful ingredients which i am being given from many different masters to mix and bless when the putapise day comes (blessing ceremony).I shall be inviting both master monks and ruesi to perform the ceremony - i cant reveal all the ingredients but i can tell you a few.. there will be bodhi tree leaves from wat mahatat temple in bkk and many other temples ground up in the mixture, also some rare, expensive and powerful amulets will be smashed and ground up into the mixture to amplify the power and retain the lineage of certain ancient and no more available ingredients to be included in the mix.Lek Lai will also be mixed into it as well as saming lek (residue from lek lai) which i was given by a master monk in Trang. The saming lek was obtained from a cave where ruesi have been practising for hundreds of years and the saming lek is charged with all the merit and power of their diligent practise in that cave.This substance has great kong grapan power, and is extremely rare, and ancient. Also we shall be mixing hopefully 108 sacred healing herbs and flowers into the amulets and some blessing woods as well as charm sunstances for metta.
The 1st edition of Luang Por Liam's LP Tuad/LP Biak gunstopper amulet (extremely rare and limited) will also be smashed and mixed in - this amulet has "din gag ya yaks" in it (rare earth from a place in Pattani which is used in the original black colored Luang Por Tuad amulets).
I have a few more of the LP Liam amulets for rent (5 left) LP Liam is building a "roeng Taan" (free food hall) for all the local poor people to eat free always every day, and is 500 thousand baht in debt, so i asked hime to help by auctioning some of the last remaining amulets in order to raise funds for his food hall for the poor.
Anyone wishing to buy an amulet will receive great merit by helping this most selfless and great compassionate master monk - contact me for details of how to rent the amulet.

Getting a Tattoo in Thailand

Getting a Tattoo in Thailand
The article on the above link from Thaizer's website has an interesting post about sak yant which helps me to understand how people who have an average basic knowledge see the matter, and also helps me to see that most people are misled into believing rumors and creating false myths as a result of the "Chinese whispers" phenomenon.
The koh pangan misspelled tattoo mentioned is real as i know who made it (i used to share a shop there with a tattooist) - but to think that sak yant tattoos are sometimes misspelled is not true in general (with the exception of the fact that not all masters spell the same word in the same manner - this is due to the fact that some monks are not well read and also that Khom agkara lettering has more than one way to create a certain pronunciation due to the 2 storied (above and below) way of writing double consonants).
Read and laugh.

ps the guy with the stupid foreigner tattoo was an Israeli who was very impolite and agressive.
