Most collectors are vaguely aware of the BE 2515 series of LP Ngern pims, being the most famous of the modern day amulets. However there are many other equally important batches that have been blessed during the last 50 years which are not known at all and I will attempt to list some of those btaches over the coming weeks starting with this classic example blessed in BE 2537 at Wat Tung Noi, Pichit province.
This particular example known as Pim Kee Dta is not only exceptionally beautiful it is also highly desirable considered to be very powerful, equal to that of the BE 2515 series. In fact all LP Ngern pims are considered to be equally as sacred as those originally blessed ibn BE 2460.
Pra Ajahn Jamnong, Abbot of Wat Tung Noi blessed these first generation amulets in BE 2537 when he was aged 60 to generate funds for urgent temple repairs.
He created the amulets from scrap metal that he collected from various temples within the province, including old bullets, brass platters, an old temple bell etcf. They are unquestionably some of the most beautiful of all LP Ngern pims blessed during the last half century as the photographs below clearly illustrate.
These pims are considered very sacred indeed, blessed continuously by LP Jamnong for months on end. They were also blessed by other noteable monks of the province including Luang Phor Som Kuan and Luang Phor Pimpaa
To become highly respected by an entire nation is not easy, but Luang Phor Ngern from Wat Bangklan (official name was Wat Hirunyaram) Pichit province, achieved such notoriety through his amulets. Although this great monk passed away a number of years ago, his memory lives on through his works.
Here are some popular accounts of the efficacy of his amulets and in particular a very famous account of his BE 2515 amulet.
During Vietnam War, the royal Thai government co-operated with the USA in sending many soldiers to assist in this notorious conflict and Sergeant Chao was almost killed by a large container filled with explosives.
“Though many years have passed, I had never forgot the day that I was almost killed and I firmly believe that the magic power of the Luang Phor Ngern’s sacred amulet saved my life.”, he said. He revealed that one of his main duties was to collect weapons from the corpses of casualties and as such he carried a box full of weapons including grenades, guns etc.

“One day I had seized a box of grenades and other explosives from the corpse of a Vietnamese soldier. Whilst I was carrying it back to the regiment I witnessed what appeared to be a trace of fire sparking on the ground running towards me. It transpired that some of the explosive powder had dropped to the ground.”, he said excitedly.
Having realized what had happened he immediately threw the box
“Suddenly there was a massive explosion and I was left in a complete state of shock, not even knowing if I was still alive or whether I had been injured.”
However at the time it seemed to him that he had been reborn (from death) because he quickly discovered that all of his body was intact “ this was a real miracle, one I truly associate with the sacred amulet that was hanging from my neck’.
Other individuals who were sceptical of the power of his amulets tried to test the claims. In fact it was recorded that a certain individual repeatedly discharged live ammunition towards his BE 2515 amulet, and even though at close range was unable to hit the amulet, the bullets were mysteriously deflected by an unknown force.
Apparently the bullets even mis-fired causing damage to both the gun and the individuals hands.
Since then this series of sacred amulets was called Bpern Dek Version as a warning to anyone else who wanted to challenge Luang Phor Ngern ’s sacred power again.
