Hi,

I have recently being reading this thread and hope if some bros can advise me on some quries:

1. I understand that in Thai, there is Monday Buddha, Tuesday Buddah, Wednesday Buddha, Wednesday Night Buddha, Thursday Buddha, Friday Buddha, Saturday Buddha & Sunday Buddha. Can any Bros advise me the placing position of the Buddha? For e.g who should be place 1st or who is place on-top of the other Buddha or beside the other Buddha.

2. Is there any place where I can find a book to read up on Thai Buddha?

Thank you.

Hi Click, what is this place that you mentioned above?

Re: Thai Amulets...
 

The order is as follows:

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wed (Day), Saturday, Thursday, Wed (Night), Friday.

It does not really matter as long as you hold faith to the Triple Gem.

Re: Thai Amulets...
 

Bro is what you referring to the positions for each day?
Pang Ham Yath, Pang Sai Yas (reclining) and so on?

Hi Bro Roadster,

What is the Triple Gem? Due to my limitation in Thai Language, I don't quite understand what the person told me when I was in Thailand, he drew something for me to see, I tried to draw in excel & wanted to paste here but can't. I will try to discribe and if you can advise me if I m correct:

The Top middle will be the Saturday Buddha, then on the left of Saturday Buddha will be Friday Buddha and on the right of Saturday Buddha will be Sunday Buddha (both Friday & Sunday Buddha is not place as same head level with Saturday Buddha but at body level with Satuday Buddha).

At the middle centre below Saturday Buddha will be Thursday Buddha, then on the left is Monday Buddha & on the right is Wednesday Buddha (both Monday & Wednesday Buddha is place at body level of Thursday Buddha, which also means the base of Friday & Sunday Buddha is place at the head level of Thurdays Buddha)

At the bottom middle below Thursday Buddha will be Tuesday Buddha (the base of Monday & Wednesday Buddha is place at the head level of Tuesday Buddha) and below Tuesday Buddha will be Wednesday night Buddha.

Therefore, Monday, Tueday, Wednesday Sunday, Satuday & Friday Buddha formed a circle outside Thursday Buddha and Wednesday night Buddha is at the bottom outside circle.

I hope I did not confuse you with my discription, bro. Thanks

Bro,

Not sure if it is the positions for each day. I am very new with these but is very interested. One of the Buddha is reclining and I think it is Tuesday Buddha.

Can recommend me any books I can read?

Thanks

The Seven Days of Thai Buddhas

1. Sunday, Pang Tawai Natra (restraint), Following his enlightenment the Buddha spent seven days contemplating the suffering of all living things and the insignificance of all the prior events in his life.

2. Monday, Pang Ham Yath (making Peace), Shows the Buddha dispelling fear. Also represents dispelling evil and prevention of conflict. This posture is sometimes called "stopping the relatives from fighting." The Buddha returned form three months in Heaven and learned that his relatives were disputing the right to use water from a river flowing between their properties. The Buddha encouraged them to compromise.

3. Tuesday, Pang Sai Yas (reclining), The reclining Buddha represents the Buddhas passage to Nirvana and the death of his body. In Thai tradition this posture also represents a resting Buddha. It also evokes a story when the Buddha assumed enormous size in order to humble a giant.

4. Wednesday, Pang Um Baatr (holding alms bowl), Shows the Buddha holding an alms bowl, another pose is sometimes given because In accordance with Thai astrology, some people divide Wednesday into morning and evening. Pang Par Lelai (blessed one), this is the retreat in the forest image; the Buddha accepts a beehive from a Monkey and a water pot from an Elephant (Palilaika). Just as Buddhism teaches respect for all living things, this posture represents the respect of all living things for the Buddha.

5. Thursday, Pang Samah Thi (meditation), Shows the Buddha in meditation, representing the perfection of mental discipline. Thursday born people are said to be naturally suitable as teachers, lawyers, and judges.

6. Friday, Pang Ram Pueng (contemplation), Shows the Buddha in contemplation of how he can teach the dharma to others. The Buddha is in a thoughtful, introspective attitude.

7. Saturday, Pang Naga Prok (protection), Shows the Buddha in meditation and protected from a storm by Mucalinda, The Naga King . According to legend, the Buddha's body exept the head, neck and shoulders was coiled four or five times by the naga to protect him from a storm.
