1. Background and Purpose

The Phra Pidta Nur Phong (closed eyes amulet made of sacred powder) was created in B.E. 2643 (2020 CE) by the revered Luang Phor Kong of Wat Takhro. This batch was produced to commemorate the ongoing spiritual legacy of Luang Pu Kong and to offer devotees a powerful amulet blessed with sacred energy, protection, and fortune.
