Amulets many faculty Is so often used to lambs, God. And various talismansLuang Por Klai and Luang Por Derm were Dharma friends, even though they were 17 years apart in age, because Luang Por Derm was born in 1860, Luang Por Klai was born in 1877. Luang Por Derm lived at Wat Nong Pho, Takhli, Nakhon Sawan Province, and Luang Por Klai lived at Wat Phanom Rok, Tha Tako, the same province. Both of them worked together to build the Ubosot of Wat Phanom Rok until it was completed in 1940. Most of the funds used to build the Ubosot came from rice husks that the villagers offered with faith. Luang Por Klai Chantachoto, or Than Chao Khun Nipan Thammacharn, was a monk with great knowledge and was highly respected by the people of Nakhon Sawan Province. He was ordained in 1897 at the ordination hall of Wat Phanom Rok with Phra Ajahn Phu of Wat Thap Krit as his preceptor, Phra Ajahn Ngern of Wat Phra Prang Lueang as his kammavachachariya, and Phra Ajahn Thet of Wat Sa Thale as his anusavanachariya. Luang Por Klai was a serious monk who spoke little. He studied Pali and Buddhist scriptures with Phra Palat Huang at Wat Phanom Rok, then traveled to study Pali further at Wat Thung Kaew, Uthai Thani. He stayed and studied Dhamma and Vinaya at Wat Nong Pho until he became familiar with Luang Por Derm. He then studied Pali further again at Wat Chom Kiri Nak Phrot before returning to hold the position of abbot of Wat Phanom Rok in 1901, where he was later appointed as the abbot of Phanom Rok District and the Upachaya monk. Luang Por Klai held the position for 46 years. When the district office was moved from Phanom Rok to Tha Tako because of a major fire, Luang Por Klai went to build Wat Samakkhiyaram in Tha Tako District in 1947 to be the spiritual center of the people of Tha Tako District. He passed away on November 20, 1957, at the age of 80 and 60 years of ordination. Although Luang Por Klai’s reputation was not as famous as Luang Por Derm’s, he had great magical knowledge and was well-known, especially the “Twipakhi” coin, which was an oval-shaped coin. The front side showed Luang Por Klai sitting next to Luang Por Derm. This is a very valuable coin. The coin was made to commemorate the time when Luang Por Klai and Luang Por Dam helped build the Ubosot of Wat Phanom Rok in 1940. I (Phra Chalinthon Pinwattana) have heard old people tell me that when building the Ubosot, Luang Por Klai and Luang Por Dam had a fight. Luang Por Klai wanted to build the Ubosot to be as high as the shadow of Phanom Rok Mountain, while Luang Por Dam wanted to make it a little lower because he was afraid that the wind would blow it down because it was near a ravine. When they disagreed, Luang Por Dam took his elephant back to Wat Nong Pho while the sun was setting. However, when the day of the ordination of the boundary markers of the Ubosot was approaching, Luang Por Klai was the one who had to ride the elephant to Wat Nong Pho to ask Luang Por Dam to preside over the important ceremony. The construction of the Ubosot of Wat Phanom Rok was successful because of the determination of both Luang Por, especially the owner of the place. He received great support from the villagers who donated money to support the construction. The wealth is the rice that was harvested from the fields, which became the main force for the completion of the beautiful chapel. Whoever received a lot of rice donated a lot to the temple, and whoever received a little rice donated a little to the temple according to each household’s ability. This is pure charity filled with merit, merit that comes from the sweat and labor of the farmers. The factors obtained from selling the rice were used as a fund for the construction of the chapel, which was proudly completed. The kindness of Mother Rice made the chapel of Wat Phanom Rok possible.
