This is a VHTF LP Doem KleebBua,
Nua Takua, Larng Riab of late 2470s. The word KleebBua means lotus
petal, it's so called because the amulet shape looks like a lotus
petal; Nua Takua = content of lead; Larng Riab = plain back.
The above KleebBua is an early-period amulet of LP Doem. This is the
sequence of LP Doem's amulet creation:
a) Late 2450s-2460s: Takruts, PhaPrajiats (Phayants on a forearm or
the neck)
b) 2470s: Pidtas of lead and Mekgaphat; KleebBuas of lead, Mekgaphat
and baked clay; Rian
c) 2480s: ivory carving
amulets, MeedMohs, RoopMuens, Rians, Phayant RoiThao (footprint)
There are two major types of LP Doem's
KleebBuas, one with radius around Buddha image and the other with
Naga's heads around the Buddha image. The above KleebBua is of the
latter.
The frontside of the
KleebBua features Buddha image sitting Smadhi posture (meditation)
with Nagas around to protect HIM.
PROFESSIONAL PREFERENCE:
The LP Doem's lead KleebBua is preferred by professionals because
it's a primitive classic style amulet and easy to verify. When using a 10x magnified lens to view the
KleebBua's surface, the natural oldness of the deep grey lead will
clearly be seen which confirms its high age. Apart from that we can
see the trace of primitive old technique of lead casting at the KleebBua's backside.
Professional collectors call the KleebBua's oldness characteristic as "Nua Haeng".
By literal translation, Nua Haeng = dry content, but it's a
technical term in Thai amuletology referring to any amulet's surface
that looks naturally old.
KleebBuas were popularly created by old-time Guru monks
such as KleebBuas of Wat LingKob, KleebBuas of LP Kai Wat ChoengLen,
KleebBuas of LP Boon Wat KlangBangKaew. etc.
The LP Doem KleebBua has efficacies & properties covering all
aspects: Metta, ChokLarp, KlaewKlaad, KongKraphanChatri, etc. Or we
may request for anything at wishes before wearing the amulet.
Luang Phor Doem is a greatest builder for temples. He helped build
more than 30 temples in Nakornsawan and nearby provinces, such as
Phichit, Pitsanulok and Chainat.
His benevolence was
so great, he cared about the water in temple's pond which was the
main blood vessel for all monks in the temple. He was very happy if
the pond was full of water. When the pond was shallow in the dry
season, he was worried and going to the Bosth to meditate and beg
for rain.
On the day he passed
away, his monk disciples had told him that the water level was very
low, it's nearly run out. If there was no rain in a few days, the
pond would dry up. Luang Phor Doem nodded his head while he was
lying ill on the floor.
" My sons I'm going to leave this world, I wish you all be good
monks and be happy forever, so don't worry about the water in the
pond", said he. A few minutes later, he passed away. Suddenly, the
lightning flashed in the sky and a clap of thunder striked, a very
heavy rain poured!! Only one hour later the pond was full of water
again. A great monk often miraculously passed away in this manner.
LP Doem had lived a long life. He passed away in B.E. 2494 at the
age of 92 after 70 years of his ordination for monkhood.
