The Master Sorcerer of Khon City: Foundations and Origins of Mystical Arts

Biography of Police Colonel Khun Phanraksa Rachadej: The Legendary Crime Fighter

Police Colonel Khun Phanraksa Rachadej, originally named But Phanraksa, was born on February 18, 1903, in Ban Ai Khiao, Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. His background proves particularly fascinating, as his family descended from Brahmin lineage, establishing a crucial foundation that connected him to mystical sciences and occult practices from a young age. After completing his education at Wat Benchamabophit School in Bangkok, he continued his studies at the Police Cadet School in Huai Jrakhe, Nakhon Pathom Province, where he simultaneously served as a Muay Thai instructor.

Khun Phan's government service career was filled with legendary encounters against notorious bandits. In 1931, he successfully apprehended "Sua Sang" and "Sua Phum" in Phatthalung Province. This achievement earned him the royal title "Khun Phanraksa Rachadej." In 1938, he captured "Awae Sadotale," a famous bandit possessing mystical invulnerability powers. In subsequent years, he transferred to central Thailand, where he confronted legendary bandits of the era including Sua Fai, Sua Bai, Sua Mahesuan, and Sua Dam. These numerous encounters with notorious criminals earned him nicknames reflecting his comprehensive prowess in law enforcement, including the well-known moniker "Khun Phan Dab Daeng" (Red Sword Khun Phan), derived from his signature paired swords kept in red cloth bags.

Mystical Arts Lineage and Influence of Khao Or School

Beyond being a skilled police officer, Khun Phan earned recognition as a "master sorcerer crime fighter" and "premier disciple of Khao Or School," one of the most renowned and ancient centers of mystical learning in southern Thailand. Khun Phan's mystical abilities originated from multiple sources, not limited solely to Khao Or School. Knowledge inherited through his Brahmin bloodline served as a fundamental factor establishing his mystical foundation. Additionally, he studied under various masters throughout the country.

Khao Or School, rooted in scholarly Brahmin traditions, perfectly aligned with his background. In July 1930, Khun Phan became a disciple of Khao Or School, introduced by Ajarn Nam, whom he revered as a benefactor teacher. Notable ceremonies of Khao Or School that many disciples, including Khun Phan, participated in included the "Chae Wan Ya" (herbal immersion) and "Gin Niao" (sticky rice consumption) rituals. Furthermore, he studied under other masters such as Luang Por Pua of Wat Khao Rahu and Ajarn Yai of Khlong Sam Sen. This multi-source education contributed to his comprehensive abilities and "multi-skill" reputation, demonstrating excellence in both law enforcement and mystical arts.

The Hero Who Created Legends: Khun Phan and Jatukham Ramathep

Origins and Role in Jatukham Ramathep Legends

Jatukham Ramathep represents a deity long associated with Nakhon Si Thammarat beliefs. Various legends surround this figure - some believe he protects the Buddha's relics at Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihan, others consider him the city's guardian deity, while some believe he was a former Srivijaya king. This diversity of narratives demonstrates the profound sanctity embedded in local beliefs.

Khun Phan's Role in Promoting Faith

Khun Phan's most significant contribution to the sacred object community was serving as the catalyst who popularized faith in Jatukham Ramathep nationwide. He initiated worship ceremonies at the Great Stupa and commissioned the first Jatukham Ramathep series in 1987. With his lifetime reputation as a "master sorcerer" whose existence and law enforcement achievements were well-documented, when invited to consecrate sacred objects, their sanctity received validation from his tangible persona - a more concrete and accessible belief than long-told legends. He also participated in creating other Jatukham Ramathep series, including the "Phutthakom Khun Phan Khao Or" series in 2001.

Legends of Crime Fighter and Bandits: Case Study of Khun Phan's Encounter with Sua Dam

Combat Records: Khun Phan and the "Tigers"

Throughout his service career, Khun Phan confronted numerous notorious bandits, including Sua Dam, known as a "righteous bandit" who typically warned property owners before robbery and never harmed innocents. According to circulated accounts, Khun Phan once engaged Sua Dam in combat, but neither could hit the other until discovering they were fellow disciples of the same Khao Or lineage master. They agreed to end their conflict, with Khun Phan arranging for Sua Dam to ordain as a monk and cease criminal activities. This Sua Dam is believed to be Luang Por Thaweesak, also known as Luang Por Sua Dam.

Fact-Checking and Multiple Perspectives

Presenting the Khun Phan-Sua Dam story requires multiple viewpoint consideration, as information from various sources shows similarities but significant differences. Historical records indicate Khun Phan ordered "10 major tigers" who were fellow disciples of Luang Por Chuay to abandon banditry and ordain as monks, which most complied with except Sua Khoi. This story resembles user claims but doesn't directly specify "Sua Dam."

Simultaneously, information about Luang Por Thaweesak's identity (Dhamma name Chutintaro), allegedly the former Sua Dam, remains widely debated. Despite his fame from claiming to be "Sua Dam" during the post-World War II period and his achievements as a development monk, video interview clips of "Sua Bai" contradict this, stating the real Sua Dam died long ago and Luang Por Thaweesak's original name was simply "Dam."

Therefore, the story of Khun Phan and Sua Dam being fellow disciples from Khao Or lineage likely combines two facts: Khun Phan's encounters with a bandit named "Sua Dam" and his orders for fellow disciples turned bandits to reform and ordain as monks. Presenting this information requires critical thinking and distinguishing between circulated legends and recorded facts.

Directory of "Buang Sue Heng" Sacred Objects Series (Ten Thousand Fortunes), 1998

Origins and Creation Intent

The "Buang Sue Heng" sacred object series, translated from Teochew Chinese as "ten thousand fortunes" or "eternal prosperity," was created in 1998 by Khun Lek Suphan, Khun Phan's close disciple. The primary purpose of creating amulets and sacred objects in this series was to serve as talismans for gamblers and risk-takers, emphasizing virtues of fortune, commerce, and loving-kindness.

Materials and Rituals

Creating this sacred object series utilized numerous sacred materials and substances. Khun Phan provided sacred materials used in the 1987 Jatukham Ramathep series - his first series - as ingredients. Additionally, for the Jatukham Ramathep components, golden teak wood powder from the city pillar shrine was reportedly sprinkled on molds.

For consecration rituals, Khun Phan performed the divine consecration ceremony and solo blessing at his home in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. The ceremony was conducted completely according to solar and lunar auspices, both day and night. Subsequently, these sacred objects underwent another consecration ceremony at the Prachuap Khiri Khan city pillar shrine in 2001.

Directory of Phra Khun Phaen "Buang Sue Heng" 1998

Compiling information from various sources enables creating this Phra Khun Phaen directory:

Mold Type | Material Content | Embedded Items

• Phra Khun Phaen | Mixed sacred powder with herbs, hair | 2 silver takrut, consecrated gems
• Phra Khun Phaen | Red herb material | Paired sarika takrut
• Phra Khun Phaen | Mortar bottom material | Gems, hair, 2 silver takrut

Note: Available data indicates total production of 10,000 pieces for this series, likely referring to all sacred objects combined, not limited to Phra Khun Phaen alone.

References to "mortar bottom material" in multiple sources represent specialized terminology in the amulet community, indicating amulet material from powder residue remaining at mortar bottoms. Generally, mortar bottom material contains higher concentrations of sacred substances than other materials and often includes additional embedded sacred items like hair and gems. Special mention of mortar bottom molds among amulet enthusiasts reflects this material's classification as rare and valuable among collectors.

Other Sacred Objects in the Same Series

Besides Phra Khun Phaen, this series included other sacred objects consecrated in the same ceremony, equally popular among collectors:

Sacred Object | Material | Embedded Items and Special Features

• Jatukham Ramathep | Powder material | Gold-plated casing, golden teak powder from city pillar shrine
• Yee Gor Hong coin | Gold-plated brass | Stamped with 1 Rahu code
• Yee Gor Hong coin | Copper | -
• Yee Gor Hong coin | Silver | - (extremely rare)

Sacred Object Distribution and Popularity

Another interesting aspect is this series' distribution pattern. Initially, "Buang Sue Heng" sacred objects weren't widely known in Thailand, with most exported to Malaysia for distribution among Jatukham devotees. Since most sacred objects weren't circulated in the Thai market initially, this prevented price inflation from speculation, instead creating genuine demand from Malaysian and Singaporean collectors that continuously increased over time. This resulted in these sacred objects becoming increasingly rare in the Thai market, with current collectors needing to source them from overseas. Prices therefore rose according to genuine demand and scarcity.

Relationship Between Khao Or Mystical Arts and Sacred Object Virtues

The true value of sacred objects consecrated by Khun Phan, particularly the "Buang Sue Heng" series, isn't limited to fortune-related sanctity as the series name suggests, but encompasses virtues of invulnerability and great authority that collectors value. These comprehensive virtues directly correlate with Khun Phan's own multifaceted abilities, including loving-kindness magic (for Phra Khun Phaen) and invulnerability techniques used in apprehending criminals. Combining diverse sciences and knowledge within the consecrator creates sacred objects with complete power, making them highly desirable.

Sacred Object Value

It is easy to concude, that the "Buang Sue Heng" series from 1998 represents more than gambling talismans - they embody the living legend of their consecrator Khun Pan. The true value of Phra Khun Phaen and sacred objects in this series doesn't derive solely from material content and molds, but from historical and mystical narratives connecting to the master sorcerer of Khao Or School. This core element maintains the power and desirability of Khun Phan's sacred objects among worldwide collectors, making their study and directory compilation academically valuable and serving as reference sources for future researchers.
