Palakit at the Phra Nang Cave on Railay Beach in Krabi Province
Origin of Palakit
Palakit originated in India and relate to the Hindu god Shiva, who is usually represented by Shiva Linga. They were brought to Southeast Asia via the Cham people and remained in the region ever since. The Chinese concept called Yang is similar, where Shiva is represented abstractly in the form of Linga (male genitalia). Sometimes the linga are accompanied by Yoni (female genitalia). Together, the linga and yoni symbolize unity and the powers of creation and destruction.
The Palakit, as a phallic representation of Shiva, is also an animistic symbol of fertility. It is not uncommon in Thailand to see a penis amulet hanging on a convenience store or a restaurant, or even being sold by old women on the street. Although outsiders may regard these as offensive, ordinary Thais are deeply superstitious and lucky charms and talismans are still regarded as important.
Palakit can be made from wood, metal, bone, horn or ivory, and they are created by monks who specialize in them. Engraving the sacred inscriptions is an important ritual and can take many days to complete. Cast metal palakit do not always have these inscriptions, but they may have animal symbols.
Palakit amulets must be empowered by the repetition of incantations, which Thais call 'Katha Bucha', derived from the Devanagari 'Ghata Pooja'. The incantations depend on the creator's lineage in each school of traditional non-Buddhist animist magic. Katha Bucha Palakit would commonly be a four syllable heart Mantra (Katha Hua Jai), such as 'Ganha Neha' and 'Na Ma Pa Ta', or, 'Ja Pa Ga Sa'
Palakit are usually worn by males on a cord around their waist under the clothes and off-center from the real penis. It is not unusual for a male to wear many palakits at the same time, in the hope to attract women, increase gambling luck and protection from dangerous objects such as bullets and knives.
At times, women in Thailand also carry it in their purses to protect them from rape and mugging. Shop owners display them in their shops or in the cash register area to protect their business and also bring good luck and sales. A notable feature of this type of amulet is it can be worn in places considered as lowly or unclean such as bars, gambling casinos and brothels.
Normally, you cannot bring a Buddhist amulet inside such establishments.

Master of Luang Phu Luea and Luang Phor Yi

He would follow or accompany Luang Phor Parn - Wat Mongkol Khotawas, Luang Phor Jeen - Wat Talarder, and Luang Phor Dum - Wat Kot, all of whom taught him sacred sciences.
Luang Phor Parn for example had many other famous disciples including Luang Phor Nok - Wat Sangkasi, famous for his tiger tooth amulets, who later became a very close friend and one of the monks that imparted knowledge to create Palakit.
After he had assimilated as much as possible from these and many other great teachers he returned to Wat Saao Cha Ngok where he was to create many sacred amulets himself including tarkuts and phayant which were given to soldiers during the Indochinese War during B.E.2483-2484.
In fact so efficacious were his amulets those that wore them were seldom injured and became known as Ghost Soldiers . Today Luang Phu Leua is best known for his Palakit which are thought to be among the very best.
His Palakit are made from a variety of woods including, Mai Koon, Mai Dumdong, Mai Cha-om and were often inscribed with the sacred katha "Gunha Nay Ha" and "U".

This holy palakit could also do not invade and can be worn in any place. Sincere worship can induce a positive magnetic field.
