An Ong Kru Carved Figure with a Takrut by Ajarn Apichai
Some fascinating items come to light when on the Burmese border.
These figures are carved from the forearm bone of a lady who died in the conflict in Burma. It is uncremated bone, which brings more power as the oils remain. Ajarn first sealed the bone with a natural lacquer and applied gold leaf to great effect. He then added a Takrut that carries the spell that is the foundation of Magic itself, the birth of magic itself. This Takrut brings success to the magic already present through the image itself.
Ajarn used this Takrut because it creates the attributes for however the bone is represented, and bring success to that attribute.
The first piece is of a seated lady holding a baby, so the attributes are for a Phi Tai Tang Glom, a dead pregnant woman's ghost. These are renowned for granting wishes and helping with the financial matters of life. They also bring the qualities of a mother, such as Metta and the attempt to find a smooth passage through life.
The second piece is a Phuttakhun carving (a Phra Pidtaa) so the Takrut brings the attributes of avoiding danger, protection, Metta and good luck and fortune. These are rare pieces from Burma, and as ever with Ajarn Apichai, the magic applied is exceptional.
These measure 1.8" and comes with the card of Ajarn Apichai and a specific kata.
Clever magic that goes on the ghost altar.
