Ganesha (Phra Pikkanet) Thai Amulett Phaa Yahn Sii Lueang

Phaa Yahn Phra Pikkanet (Ganesha) Sii Lueang Thai amulet from the venerable Luang Pho Kaweerat (Phra Khru Samut Kaweerat), abbot of Wat Satthayalai, Ban Had Nang Rum, Tambon Plutaluang, Amphoer Sattahip, Changwat Chonburi, Thailand, from the year BE 2550 (2009).
 

The Phaa Yahn shows Ganesha which is called in Thailand Phra Pikkaned, surrounded by magical Pali protective formulas.

Ganesha which is also called Vinayaka, Ganapathi, and in Thailand Phra Pikkaned is the son of Shiva and Parvatis. Ganah comes from the Sanskrit and means "diversity" and Isha means lord, therefore, Ganesha is also called "lord of all beings".

Other names for Ganesha are Ekadanta (with the tusk), Vighneswara (destroyer of all obstacles), Varada (good giving) and Sidhhita (donor of success at any work).

Ganesha is revered as a protector and divinity of the arts and apprenticeships, particularly intellectuals and students revere Ganesha! His special strength and his infinite knowledge make him a special protection bringer and luck bringer for the wearer of the amulet!

With the Hindus he is one of the most honoured and mostly adored divinities. Also in Bangkok and other big towns one finds to honour of him established shrines which are visited daily by hundreds of believers, who present joss sticks, flowers and dishes to Ganesha as an offering and ask him for luck!

The Phaa Yahn protects its owner against misfortune, illness and accidents, as well as again bad ghosts, black magic, witchcraft, Voodoo, Visha Khameen, imprecations, negative energy and other magic methods which are directed against its wearer.

The Phaa Yahn is about 25 cm long and 18 cm wide. One hangs it on the wall oriented to the east, clamps it behind the lens hood of the car or puts it on the altar.
