LP Waas (also known as Luang Ta Waas) is a direct descendant by blood of Luang Pu Iam of Wat Saphan Sung, he is the great-grandchild of Im, who was the younger sister of Luang Pu Iam. Moreover, he is also related to Luang Por Sun of Wat Salakun, a renowned monk known for creating the famous Hanuman amulet. Luang Por Sun was his uncle.

Luang Pu Waas continued the tradition of inscribing the sacred Takrut amulet of Luang Pu Iam, specifically creating the “Takrut Maha Solos Mongkol”. The process involves cutting metal sheets into 4×4 inch squares and stacking hundreds of them together. The inscriptions begin with the “Maha-ud” spell from Ajarn Plaek Roi Bang, one of his master. Starting from the top sheet, once completed, it is moved to the bottom of the stack, and the process continues until all sheets are inscribed. Then, the sheets are flipped over, and the sacred “Solos Mongkol” spell from Luang Pu Iam is inscribed, following the same method. Each sheet is infused with power through chanting, based on the teachings passed down by the masters.

Luang Pu Waas has said that the power of the Buddha is transmitted from the topmost sheet to the bottommost, similar to the traditional consecration of sacred objects at temples, where they are placed in the center of the ordination hall, encircled with sacred thread, while monks chant blessings, empowering all the objects equally.

In the creation of the “Maha Solos Mongkol” Takrut, Luang Pu Waas inscribes and blesses one sheet per night, performing 16 rounds of chanting for each. The current batch of Takrut began on Saturday, March 20, 2010, and was completed on Thursday, August 19, 2010. This practice follows the tradition of Luang Pu Klin, who would inscribe the sacred “Nine Spells” Takrut on such an auspicious day in the ordination hall of Wat Saphan Sung—now a rare practice.

Made from copper, woven with thick rope and coated with lacquer and gold. The piece is 4 inches long and follows the original recipe of Luang Pu Iam, who is famous for his Takrut amulets and Phra Pidta amulets.

Moreover, on Saturday, June 5th, 2010, LP Khao, the abbot of Wat Saphan Sung and over 10 well-known monks from various temples in Nonthaburi, Bangkok, and nearby provinces also joined in participating in the ceremony (not only takruts, also included Phra Pidtas, and Luang Pu Iam commemorative coins). It was a grand consecration ceremony. Some of the famous monks involved included Luang Por Ang from Wat Yai Sawang Arom, among others. Monks rotated in shifts throughout the day to bless the amulets. For those who have heard of Luang Pu Iam’s reputation and have faith in his legacy, it is highly recommended to keep this amulet with you. It offers great protection, ensuring safety from harm and promoting invincibility, as well as bringing kindness and popularity.
