Phra Kamphaeng, Wang Phan temple, is an U Thong period Buddha amulet made by Kamphaeng Phet craftsmen. It is a Buddha amulet that was recently discovered from the crypt. Most of them are made of lead with a mercury surface. There are some made of clay and herbs, but in small quantities. This is another type of Buddha amulet worth collecting. Its sacred power is excellent in invulnerability. Phra U Thong, Wang Phan temple, has a similar appearance to Phra U Thong Thong Chang of Lopburi, with slight differences. Some have lacquer from the crypt, making it very rare.
Phra Khun Paen: The Legendary Warrior, Lover, and Master of Magic
Rooted in the classic Thai epic Khun Chang Khun Paen, the legend of Phra Khun Paen blends romance, war, and mysticism into one of Thailand’s most enduring folktales. Set in the Ayutthaya period and passed down for centuries, the story centers on a love triangle between the dashing warrior Khun Paen, the wealthy official Khun Chang, and the beautiful Wanthong.
Born as Prai Kaew in Suphanburi, Khun Paen was the son of a disgraced general. After his father's execution, he fled with his mother to Kanchanaburi. There, he entered monkhood and began training in both sacred texts and esoteric magic—laying the foundation for his legendary supernatural abilities.
By his twenties, Khun Paen left the temple to serve in the military. Celebrated for his courage and battlefield skill, he also became known for his charm and magical prowess. His deep love for Wanthong clashed with Khun Chang’s schemes, as the jealous bureaucrat used his influence to exile Khun Paen and falsely claim Wanthong for himself.
Their love story turned tragic. After years of war, Khun Paen returned victorious only to find Wanthong with Khun Chang. Despite a brief reunion, court politics led to his imprisonment and Wanthong’s detainment in the palace. Their son, Phlai Ngam, later rose as a war hero, fighting for his father’s release.
In a final twist, Wanthong was forced to choose between her two lovers in a royal trial. Unable to decide, she was sentenced to death. Though a royal pardon came, it arrived too late.
Beyond the tale of passion and betrayal, Khun Paen is revered for his mastery of powerful magic—spells of invisibility, invincibility, and irresistible charm. One of his most famous rites was the creation of Kuman Thong, a spiritual protector made through sacred rituals involving the spirit of a deceased child.
