Episode three of Ajarn Spencer Littlewood's self made documentation of the cultivation of the first few Sacred Herbs and other plants, which will be installed in the living Museum of sacred and magical herbs, flowers, and other types of plants. Thiis short videocast shows 'Paya Wan Chang Pasom Khloeng' in Male and Female forms, which is only one of the various successfully cultivated herbs, with the lucky event of one of these rare sacred root-bulb based plants rendering flowers. A lucky event of one of the plants bursting out into bloom has occurred, allowiing Ajarn Spencer to photograph and later also video-document the rare flower. The plant has been asked about many times through the http://Thailand-Amulets.net website, because of its multiple mentions, in the descriptions of the making and contents, of many sacred Amulets which are written up within that website. This particular video cast, hence, it will be interesting to those who study and collect amulets which use herbs of this type of Maha Sanaeh attraction and charm magic.

A Ramakien Tale - The second part of introductory talks which will lead up to the retelling of the Thai Ramayana (Ramakien) epic myth. This episode breaks away from the academic prelude which will deal with the family trees of the three main kinds of sentient beings found within the tale of the Ramakien, in order to lighten things up and gives a little bit off the events which lead up to the story by retelling the story of Hirantayaks. Hirantayaks was a giant Asura Deva (Yaksa) monster, who tried to roll up the surface of the earth,in order to leave the humans with no place to dwell anymore out of pure maliciousness. This tale tells the tale of one of the 10 avatars of the god Vishnu in this case the avatar, where he incarnated as an albino Wildboar, in order to stop the demon Hirantayaks, from destroying the earth.

12 Sense Bases and their inner & outer objects
Buddha Magic
04/11/14 • 34 min
This pod cast talks somewhat about the 12 sense bases, and their inner, and outer objects. However, the talk, also Delves into a multitude of other related topics all which are assistive in deepening one's understanding of contemplative introspection in Thai Buddhist Vipassana,and subsequently, the path, to enlightenment. The Talk is a long meander which drifts from the topic of the sense bases, to investigate and proliferate upon related issues and influential factors in the Human perception and the awareness of pervieved phenomena and the chain of events which trigger thoughts, emotions, actions and subsequently entrapment in Samsara, the world of Illusory Dualistic Linear Thought. Thought is a Prison, Awareness arises in its purest state, only when the Human conditioned thought process stops. Thinking in Words is not Spontaneously Being one with all things, and reacting accordingly in Nature. Thinking in words, is is merely self entrapment in illusory Chimeras of Thought.. words. Beyond words, and thinking in words, lies the formless realms of Arupa Jhana. This is the meditative state and access point which opens up the necessary insights, and realisations, which will make one able to understand, and eventually see, the true path to Liberation, and Self Enlightenment

Incantation for all kinds of Amulets which are scrolls inside of bullets or, takrut kong grapan/klaew klaad.
This particular Amulet is for protection and invincibility.
this is a re-upload of the previous podcasts and a remake with that enchanting. It has a better sound quality and was made to give to the people who I give these particular amulet to which incantation is used for.
The Amulet has never been up for sale, but has been made often, and distributed. It continues to be distributed by myself, as and when I make them which is according to how time goals and in what phase I am in.
This is the third method invoking the four elements that is not just an invocation. In terms of the four elements within an Amulet, especially within Sacred geometry type Amulets, and animist designs. Sculpted effigies also come under this context.
This particular invocation is essential in the empowerment of Thai Buddhist Amulets, and other cultures who have possessed mastery of sorcery and the empowerment of inanimate objects, all have their versions of this kind of incantation.
The incantation is not just performed in order for the Amulet to be empowered through its recital. It is necessary to use the incantation to invoke a certain level of concentration, and rapture, as one performs the chanting of the spell.
This particular incantation, is used to awaken the powers and strengthen the powers, within the Amulet which I traditionally make since 2008, where I learned this particular magical spell used for inscription of Sacred geometry using Buddhist Yant & Khom Agkhara lettering which is Sanskrit derived, to perform the inscription of the spell within the leaden, metal or other material surface used to make the scroll with.
The (in this case),leaden foil scroll, is then empowered with the incantations again, and further incantations, and the use of meditative focus, and the arousal of rapture within that concentrative focus.
The Amulets which I Endow or bestow this incantation, as a form of empowerment is called 'takrut maha ud kong grapan chadtri klaew klaad'.
It is a protective amulet, which I was originally talked by one of my Kroo Ba Ajarns, who showed me to insert the Takrut within bullet shells of the 9, and 35 mm caibre, as well as the very large M-16 style bullet shells.
I myself, also make them as simple Takrut scrolls, within transparent tubular casing with stainless steel caps, to enclose them with. This is a Takrut non Thai Buddha Magic related, which uses enter into Khmer sorcery, of the dark arts variety.
It uses sacred geometry and incantations which are in pure Khom Khmer, which is the version of medical inscription used by the Khmer people.
In contrast we have also and that which is also mostly used in Thailand that which we call 'Thai-Khom.
Thai-Khom, is also an ancient magical form of inscription, based on Sanskrit in the Pali form, which was created in Sri Lanka sometime after the death of the Lord Buddha. Thai-Khom, has a larger number of files and more complex method of writing in order to incorporate certain forms of incantations made by Thai Buddhist monks, and certain Buddhist prayers, and in order to incorporate them within the Sacred geometry used, which had been adopted from the Brahman Hindu people. It was the Breimon people and the Hindus, who were the previous visitors to Southeast Asia and entered into Thailand and brought the influence of their Hindu religion to Siam.
It can hence be said, that the incantations used in Thai Buddha magic, are auspicious based, and lean towards white magic. The ancient Khmer forms of sorcery, in contrast, are mostly based in the dark arts, and various forms of necromancy. Thai-Khom inscription is more based on...

A little look into the future of cloud services, such as dropbox and mega, and how we will apply them for our own uses in the future. We will look at it evolution, and how this will condition the way these services present themselves in the future, as our mobile devices develop more and more functions. and the PC and the mobile device are closing ever more in on each other. Four example, right now, it is not possible for an iOS device to AirDrop wirelessly a file directly to a MacBook or an iMac. But an iPhone in iOS seven or upwards, can airdrop a file to an iPad in iOS seven. Eventually, the gap will be close, and one will not need to plug into iTunes with the cable using an iPad or iPhone. One will merely add drop it directly to the Mac or MacBook, directly from your iPad or iPhone. Hence, dropbox and such cloud services, will no longer be as necessary for the purposes we now use them for, but will most certainly continue to survive and provide us with a need for their services. How this will happen and how the way we will use their services is going to change as the web and the future and new technological advancements change the way we interface with all the software and hardware we will be surrounding ourselves with as of now and into the future is going to be presented here in this and the following podcasts. Eventually, these cloud storage services, will no longer be needed in the same way they are today by most people in the present moment, which is now 2014, most people use them as a method of transferring files from a mobile device, to the laptop, or desktop device at home. This is because there is still a gap between the mobile operating systems, and the desktop and laptop operating system is not yet integrated, And also, because they don't want to fill the gap, because they have not yet rentabilitized, all of the hardware they need to sell ,in order to allow us, to be rid of the need of that hardware.

Kata for Grinding up broken (or unbroken) amulets and images into Sacred Powders;
For contemplative destruction of broken amulets, or even whole unbroken sacred amulets (as used as a method of non clinging, and contemplation of transience in the Mahayana Sand Mandala painting creation, and subsequent destruction).
To empower with mind rapture and cosmic insight during the grinding of sacred powders using a pestle and mortar, it is useful to use the following kata
Rupang suunyang anijjang nipannang na tugkhang anatta
- Rupang = assumed form/shape
- Suunyang = zero - cessation, dissolution, nothingness, emptiness, void
- Anijjang = anijja /impermanent/transient
- Nippanang = enters into the end of the fidgety incessant action and constant presence of dissatisfactory transient states, and becomes one with everything else
- Na Tugkhang = not Dhukkha or not dissatisfactory in state of existential separateness (illusion of being as a self that does not exist) - no longer suffering
- Anatta = without an identity or name that is inherently part of it, and descriptive of its unchanging self.
This formula, is 'nork dtamra' (not inside any ancient formula i know of) and inherited through insight, not mouth to ear lineage transmission.
Meaning 'self invented, or discovered.. uncovered..' the American Indigenous People, at least the Haida of what we now know as Canada, believe all forms to already exist, and in their carvings, are merely uncovered, not invented, for Nature has invented all forms which can exist, since the beginning, and we are merely here to uncover them for ourself, and/or reveal them to others.
In the same way, i believe all physical and metaphysical laws and Dhammas to be as the Buddha declared them to be.. Namely not of his Own Invention or Formulation, rather, that this Dhamma has Existed since the Beginninglessness of Timeless Eternity, and that he has merely Uncovered or Discovered it, and Revealed it to All Humans and Devas.
Hence, this formulation, is not my invention, rather, has been uncovered, as we uncover all things we find in the journey within our own minds

A Ramakien Tale Episode 4 - The Birth Of Lord Anomatan. Lord Vishnu Pra Narai conjures a lotus with child out of his navel. In the original Vedic mythology, the being who is manifested upon the Lotus which emerges from Vishnu's navel, is not Anomatan, rather, Brahma himself. This is one of the many differences which are to be found in Thailand's version of Valmiki's Ramayana epic myth, and this, is part of what makes Thailand's version of the story much more than just a version, rather a completely different story in itself.
