Tarkut Tone (knitted with green ropes) BE2540 Luang Pu Mun (Lp Moon) Wat Ban Jan, Nakhon Pathom Province
Takrut Tone (Green Cord-Wrapped Edition) – B.E. 2540
Created by Luang Pu Moon, Wat Ban Jan, Sisaket Province
1. Historical Background and Purpose
In B.E. 2540 (1997), Luang Pu Hmun, a renowned master of both Wicha Akom (sacred mystical sciences) and Vipassana meditation, created a special batch of Takrut Tone amulets. This particular edition, known for its green cord wrapping, was intended to provide powerful spiritual protection, support for practitioners, and to help raise funds for temple activities and charitable works.
The amulets were released during a period of active spiritual propagation and development efforts within the monastic community of Northeastern Thailand.
2. Sacred Materials and Construction
The Takrut Tone amulets were crafted using time-honored materials and inscribed with ancient yantras for maximum spiritual efficacy.
-
The scrolls were made from sacred lead or copper sheets.
-
Each scroll was inscribed with yantra scripts by hand, using ancient Khmer or Lanna characters, invoking specific protective energies.
-
The scroll was then tightly wrapped with green cord, which is symbolic of harmony, growth, and protective shielding.
-
Before wrapping, the materials were blessed during multiple ritual sessions, and the cords were often pre-soaked in consecrated oils.
The green cord wrapping is distinctive to this edition and is considered part of the sacred design, enhancing both its physical durability and spiritual symbolism.
3. Ritual Consecration
The consecration of the Takrut Tone was conducted under the direct supervision of Luang Pu Hmun and involved multiple sessions of meditative empowerment.
Key aspects of the blessing included:
-
Continuous chanting of powerful Pali paritta such as Itthipiso and Kata Chinabanchon.
-
High-level meditation by Luang Pu Hmun during the empowerment period.
-
Participation from other respected monks in the region to join in the communal Phutthaphisek ceremony.
-
Amulets were kept near Luang Pu Hmun’s kuti during nightly chanting sessions to absorb spiritual energy.
The emphasis on samādhi (deep meditative concentration) in the empowerment process is believed to make these Takrut particularly responsive to the faith and karma of the wearer.
4. Spiritual Benefits and Beliefs
Takrut Tone from this batch is renowned for offering comprehensive protection and auspicious blessings. Devotees and collectors attribute the following powers to it:
-
Klaew Klaad – Evasion from harm, danger, accidents, and malevolent forces.

5. Collectibility and Legacy
The B.E. 2540 Takrut Tone (green cord version) is considered one of the more iconic and recognizable Takrut creations attributed to Luang Pu Hmun. Despite the quantity made, original and authenticated pieces remain highly collectible due to:
-
Direct lineage and consecration by Luang Pu Hmun himself.
-
The distinctive green cord, which separates it from other general-purpose Takrut.
-
Testimonials of spiritual protection and “miraculous” survival stories shared by wearers.
-
It being among the final major Takrut batches released before Luang Pu Hmun’s later years.
Collectors value this edition for both its spiritual potency and connection to one of Thailand’s most respected forest meditation masters of the 20th century.
