Phrakru Thammakit Kosorn (Porthan Nong) or commonly known as Phra Achang Nong, the former abbot of Wat SaiKhao was a well-liked monk who had believed to have attained high level in both Buddha Dharma and The Occult.
Phra Achang Nong was also a very kindhearted monk who preached what he practised as well as contributed greatly towards numerous charitable projects which benefited the community.
He was also one of the important masters together with Phra Achang Tim to have created the reowned amulets of Phra LuangPu Thuad, Wat Chang Hai.
He was the only one whom was taught by Phra Achang Tim on the making of Phra LuangPu Thuad amulets and had since in his lifetime created many effective batches. He was also involved in the making and blessing since the first batch of Phra LuangPu Thuad amulet in B.E. 2497.
Phra Achang Nong was also
widely involved in almost all of the blessing of Phra LuangPu Thuad amulets after the passing of Phra Achang Tim in B.E. 2512.
Phra Kring Narai Plaeng Roop of Phra Achang Nong created in B.E. 2542 made only Nawaloha material. A total of 1198 pieces were created.
1) Gold base: 199 pieces.
2) Nawaloha base: 999 pieces.
All of the Phra Kring Narai Plaeng Roop were inserted with an Takrud Narai Plaeng Roop (most sought after takrud in the South).
Material used for creating this batch of Phra Kring can be considered one of the best with the mixtures as follow:
1) Metal plates inscribed with sacred writing following the manuscript exactly to those of Phra Kring Wat Suthat.
2) leftover material from the making of LuangPu Thuad B.E. 2505 "Lek Dai Tahn" batch.
3) Leftover materials of all alloy batches Phra Achang Nong had ever created.
4) 10 kilograms of pure silver.
5) 30 baht (over 450 grams) of solid gold and gold jewellery.
6) Pure copper.
7) Other sacred alloy.
Phra Achang personally follow the process of making each and every step from the melting of sacred alloy to the writing of the takrud Narai as if he knew that it will be the last ever batch of amulet he were to create.
Measuring 4.5cm in height and 2.5cm in width, the beautifully crafted Phra Kring Narai Plaeng Roop were highly sought after for its good blessing as well as its scarcity.
Phra Achang Nong passed away at the age of 79 years on the 11th Sept B.E. 2542.
