History.
For centuries throughout the world certain values assigned to amulets and talismans. Nowhere is the doings and amulets as high as in Asia and particularly in Thailand. The use goes back to BC. With the emergence of Buddhism have been preserved relic of little monks and deceased relatives, they were assisted as well as a stark reminder of protection and good luck. It was not just pieces of clothing or hair of the deceased as well as bones or teeth. Of several stupas, pagodas chedis or are claimed to contain bones or hair of the Buddha himself. To date, attract many pilgrims to the tombs.
Over the centuries Buddhism has a large following and only in Thailand and there are tens of thousands of temples and sanctuaries there are hundreds of very well known to occur less known. All these temples and places have one thing in common, each temple has its own charm, with its own history and its own history. There are a dozen well-known monks in Thailand who make their living status "Buddha" have been reaching enlightenment through meditation. All these monks have something done for the Thai population, which disease, poverty, and doom is not provided or disappears. There are hundreds of stories about what the most beautiful scents and colors to be told.
The monks of earlier centuries did not have permanent residence, such as a temple or monastery. She traveled the country to preach the teachings of Buddha. They sometimes slept in monasteries or with the locals, but mostly in the open air or in caves where they prayed and meditated. A monk became known many people as he could with his stories and some buoys deployed forces such as curing diseases, poverty and help restore peace and tranquility. When these monks were old and could no longer travel, was often in their hometown created a temple in front of him where she lived the rest of their lives. By the fame of the monks, many people came from far and wide to get through this man blessed. As also in our present civilization, we are often a reminder of a person or place we have ever been. By the monks was a mold with a small image of a Buddha. The monk found himself together a mix of clay mixed with other ingredients such as herbs, ashes or bone remains of animals. This clay was kneaded into a ball and pushed into the mold so you got a perfect impression of miniature Buddha. Sometimes wast at the back is engraved with a prayer or are being pushed stones or sticks. The amulet was taken from the mold and then updated it was laid out to dry. All this happened during the prayer of the monk. Often on the back of the amulet is the fingerprint to see the monk. Pilgrims who had visited the monk after prayers and a blessing amulet, it was often a buttoned cotton pouch worn under clothes. Frequently amulets were also sent to relatives and friends who were sick or just could use some more luck. When the monk died, his skills amulet taken over by his successor. The sequel never used the same recipe, usually a different clay, other herbs colors and sizes. This allows you an amulet multiple sizes and colors. It is also these materials to see which period they came, and they are made by the monk.
The power of the amulet.
The force is not derived from the material it is made, so can an amulet of lead have more value as an amulet of silver and so can an amulet in a brass box more value and force as an amulet with diamonds mounted in a modified gold holder.
The power of the amulet comes from two main points, the first is the origin of the amulet through which the monk made and blessed. The second main thing is the energy which are absorbed by wearing amulets. The longer an amulet is worn, so the more it is passed from parent to child (usually from father to son or grandson), the stronger the protection and power of the amulet is. So what is an amulet 100 years in a closet located has less power as an amulet that was worn by someone 10 years. By wearing an amulet gets the energy from the wearer both good and bad energy by acting as a kind of filter to serve the amulet can help protect the wearer and more happiness.
Facts
Here is a sample of questions which are often put to me on the amulets. One of the most common comments is "an amulet you can not buy for yourself." Frequently followed by the remark "it's bad luck." This is nonsense, firstly there are no negative forces associated with amulets, and the first Buddhist monk someone accidentally wishes he or she buys an amulet has yet to be born. This also goes for Buddha images, more about this in our article of the month "you can not buy a Buddha"
Another frequently asked question is "what if I wear an amulet around me on a rich, happy and healthy" I always find this a very difficult question. It may be so that you win the lottery tomorrow, it may be that an incurable disease suddenly disappears, but this is not directly attributable to the amulets. An amulet will give you a better feeling, in combination with a lot of confidence. It is very difficult to explain and explain what exactly does an amulet. Only carriers of the amulets have the positive feeling you give an amulet. Try to buy an amulet of someone who is really attached, the answer will often "for no gold in the world."
There is also sometimes asked whether you can charge one extra amulet. Unfortunately for many carriers that are not, you can not put in more energy as time teaches. What does a positive charge if you ever come into a temple, the monk ask whether he wants to do a prayer amulet. All positive and negative things in your life will strengthen the amulet, all other goodness that the carrier will give the amulet stronger.

I was a few years ago, a time in Bangkok in what was a tourist looking amulets called me and said, "all fake" I said "sorry?" "Yes, all fake, I've seen that just come from a machine and a big pile. So all geldklopperij because I can not kick. "I did not mention, however, I can explain. Indeed, there are temples where the amulets are made by hundreds, bjivoorbeeld "What Poh" in Bangkok which is more than 1 million visitors per year. Most people want their amulet and also want to take a souvenir. You can verify that many amulets not a monk can be made by hand. They have indeed a machine. But ... The raw materials are still chosen by the monk, and although there might be a pile of hundreds of amulets, they are all still blessed by the monk. A personal visit to the monk and you never have to pay an amulet that you get from him, the little delights at the temple complex there are beautifully wrapped in transparent boxes and stamped or labeled. Here they tend to have some money and this money will only be good to maintain the temple or care of orphans or other such projects.
An amulet does not have an image of Buddha to have. Amulets are a lot of forms and variations, from clay tablets to animal teeth. Measuring a few millimeters to several centimeters.
Do not.
There are some things you should not do with an amulet. Do not buy just an amulet, there are many people who just do and say anything, always buy from someone who knows, is not every amulet suit you. Buy an amulet only if it appeals to you. Never one to make the amulet necklace eye atop the head of the Buddha, this happens quite often with bronze or silver miniature amulets, (therefore they are often kept in boxes).
