RE: The Grand-masters of Wat Bang Phra

in #travel5 years ago

amazing place and on my list of to-do for a long time. thanks for this very comprehensive story on sak yant tattoos. i heard also if you have one they only work if you remain loyal to your principles and promises .. do good a sank yant will protect, do bad they will betray you. Thai people believe in them very strongly which i have witnessed myself.

When you get to know the rules or principles, it makes sense to the power or powers that have been bestowed upon you (making a long story short, LOL). It does get difficult and you have to re-up your sak yant powers every time you screw up and lose your powers. But then again, these were my greatest times learning from all of my mentor monks while asking them to re-up what I screwed up, and for these times, I'm forever grateful. Awesome of you to stop by, thanks a million and have a terrific week.
