Description from the seller

Buddha Reliquary "Phra Pidta" & Naga Magic: Fortune, Invulnerability & Absolute Serenity.
The guardian who closes the senses to the tumult of the world in order to open the royal path to inner and outer wealth.

A high-protection talisman worn to preserve one’s fortune, block harmful energies, and find calm at the heart of the storm.

This reliquary houses the legendary representation of the Monk who closes his senses to reach pure Enlightenment. It is the archetype of the 'Great Stoppage': he stops misfortune, freezes danger, and prevents wealth from slipping away. He embodies perfect concentration, the one that allows him to remain in control of himself when everything around him is tumultuous. It is an impregnable fortress for the mind and for patrimony.

The energy of this talisman operates in a closed circuit, like an inexhaustible spiritual battery. The central figure draws everything back to its center, toward that radiant sun sculpted on the belly which symbolizes the vital fire. On the back, the Mythical Serpent rises and undulates, forming a spine of power that supports the whole. The alliance of the focused man and the guardian reptile creates a vibration of total security.

Owning this treasure provides immediate reassurance. It acts as an active shield that preserves the integrity of its bearer. It turns vulnerability into invincible strength, ensuring that every gain secured stays in your possession and that your inner peace remains unaltered in the face of everyday challenges.

Ornate reliquary in silvered metal, enamelled, and terracotta.
Total weight: 26.6 g.
Measurements: 49.3*34*20.1mm.

This artifact combines two of the most powerful symbols of protective magic in Southeast Asia.

The Phra Pidta (Maha Ud)
The character who hides his face with his hands performs the ritual of 'Maha Ud' (The Great Closure). He hides his eyes and ears so as not to be distracted by the illusions of the world. In fortune magic, this posture has a precise virtue: it prevents money from flowing out. It is the supreme talisman of fruitful savings and capital preservation.

The Naga (The Guardian of the Abysses)
On the back, the coiled serpent represents the Naga, the Lord of Waters and the guardian of subterranean treasures. He is the one who watches over the riches of the earth. His presence on the Buddha's back signifies that protection covers all angles. It brings fluidity in business, intuition, and fierce protection against those who covet your possessions.

The Ventral Sun (The Inner Fire)
The radiant or star-shaped motif placed on the navel symbolizes the center of vital energy (Chi or Prana). It radiates a benevolent warmth that supports health, courage, and the will to act. It is the engine that enables transforming passive protection into active success.

The Land of Memory
The tablet is forged in a Sacred Land (Muan Sarn), a dense and dark ritual composition. This organic matter has absorbed the chants and vibrations during its consecration. It offers a warm and living texture, linking the bearer to the stability of the Earth element and to the strength of the ancestors.
