 Luang Por Dam Janthasaro (15 April 1941 – 3 December 2008) was the former abbot of Wat Mai Napharam who inherited the knowledge of making the master’s stick and Phra Khwam Badi (Phra Pitta) from Luang Por Korn of Wat Bang Sae (the owner of the Phra Pitta amulet worth hundreds of thousands or millions). Luang Por Dam’s amulets are famous throughout Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia. They are widely believed to be so powerful that bullets cannot penetrate them, that they protect people from various dangers, bring great fortune, and help them get rid of debts and debts, and reverse their fate in an incredible way. Even the kings of some states in Malaysia [citation needed] wear Phra Pitta and hold his master’s stick with faith. This is because 10 years ago, their Phra Pitta was tested in Malaysia in front of the king of that state. The result was that it was extremely powerful and could not be penetrated by bullets. This was talked about by both Thais and foreigners who were present at the event. The whole story was published in a newspaper [1]. Apart from Luang Por Dam, his teachers also studied with Luang Por Korn. He also studied further with Luang Pu Toh of Wat Pradu Chim Pli (March 27, 1887 – March 5, 1981). Just by mentioning his name, one can immediately know how skilled he was in magic. His fellow practitioners included Luang Pho Thong of Wat Sampao Chai (April 5, 1918 – April 26, 2011) and Father Than Het of Wat Rangsitawas in Yala Province [2].

His birthplace
His original name was Dam Krainoi. He was born on April 15, 1941, during the reign of King Ananda Mahidol, Rama VIII, at 200 Moo 6, Tambon Pron, Amphoe Tak Bai, Narathiwat Province. He was the son of Mr. Chan and Mrs. Chan Krainoi, and had two siblings. He was the eldest son. When he was young, his father brought him to study at Wat Mai Napharam. Until finishing the fourth grade of primary school, with Phra Athikarn Chan, the former abbot of Wat Mai Napharam, as the caretaker and trainer of his behavior. As a child, Than Dam was a well-behaved person, not naughty or rebellious like his friends of the same age. Because his family was strict in Thai traditions since ancient times, when it was a merit-making festival, they would go to the temple to make merit regularly. This made Than Dam have a gentle heart, kind to other animals like a chip that doesn't fall far from the tree. And he was a diligent person, paying attention to his work, such as farming, including being a skilled construction worker. When he was 20 years old, he was ordained as a monk in 1961 at the boundary of Wat Mai Napharam with Phra Khru Niphatkanlaya of Wat Prachum Chonthat as the preceptor, Phra Palat Muang Thitthammo as the kammavajacariya, and Phra Athikarn Nui of Wat Mai Napharam as the anusavanacariya. He was given the nickname Chanthasaro [3]. Luang Pho Dam studied the Dharma and the Pariyatti Dhamma. He was able to pass the Naktham Tri and Naktham To exams in order. Later, he became interested in learning and studied Vipassana meditation, black magic, and spells. He studied these subjects from ancient palm leaf manuscripts in the temple [4] and studied the principles directly with the abbot until he became an expert in practice, Pariyatti, and Pativedha. In the fourth year of his ordination, he moved to reside at Wat Prachaphirom in the city of Narathiwat. During this time, he was able to pass the Naktham Ek exam and resided there for 10 years [5].

Walking asceticism
This is a way of practicing the virtues of Dhamma. Some wandering monks like to help villagers by teaching them to observe the precepts, practice meditation, and Vipassana, so that they can reach the Triple Gem, and to stop believing in ghosts, demons, and superstitions completely because believing in ghosts is a delusion that only brings suffering. But believing in the Buddha, the Dharma, the Sangha, and adhering to the 5 precepts and 8 precepts as a practice, when one dies one will be reborn as an angel in heaven [6]. Luang Pho Dam traveled on a pilgrimage throughout the North for many years. Most of the secluded places were usually cemeteries or forests and mountains. During this pilgrimage, whenever he heard news about a good teacher, he would go and ask to be his disciple, asking to learn Vipassana meditation, learning spells, and even traditional medicine. He began to study. After that, he traveled back to his hometown, Narathiwat, and stayed at a temple he was familiar with, Wat Mai Napharam, until he passed away in 1985. He was appointed as the Upachaya, performing the ordination of young men who aspired to Dharma in 2000. He received the ecclesiastical title of Phra Khru Niphawihankit, but unfortunately, he passed away on December 3, 2008 at the age of 67, having been a monk for 47 years, even though he was not that
