Somdej Toh Related Amulet of
Wat Mai Pak Bang
Wat Mai Pak Bang(WMPB) holy powder amulet as seen above is excellent-conditioned piece. WMPB is situated in Ayuthaya Province. WMPB amulets are so popular and now becoming rare-to-find items.

Due to its good great history related to Somdej Phra PhutdhaCharn (Toh) that makes the amulets popular. And the amulets have proved a long years experience on Maha Metta, Mahaniyom (attractiveness) on opposite sex and safty protection.

The amulets made by LP Sapya, a Somdej Toh's disciple. LP Sapya ordained and lived in Wat Rakang for a long years. Many say LP Sapya made the amulets in B.E.2430, fifteen years after Somdej Toh's passing-away.

But as on my research, in around B.E.2412-2413, LP Sapya was asked to be the Abbot of WMPB which is nearly completely deserted. The temple needed restoration and LP Sapya started his fund raising plan. He created amulets from his Guru's holy powder and then invited his Guru to bless them before bringing up to WMPB.

A lot of amulets were distributed to people who helped donate money for the temple restoration, while so many left-overs were contained in a jedi. And they were first found in the jedi in B.E.2498, nearly a hundred years later.
