Phra Phrom (The four-faced Brahma Sahampati) 四面神
Brahma Sahampati is an early Hindu religion dating back some 5,000 years. This religion is mainly symbolized by a trinity of Gods, namely; Brahma the creator, Vishnu the preserver and Shiva the destroyer. It is believed that this Brahmanical triad combined their powers to create the Buddhist world.

One of the earliest iconographic descriptions of Brahma is that of the four-faced god seated on a lotus. In Thai Buddhism this Brahminist 4-faced god is known as "Phrom Sie Nha ", but it often referred to by others as the 4 faced Buddha.

Thai Buddhists highly respect many Brahminist gods including the 4-faced Phrom Buddhism grew out of a culture which believed in many levels of gods, called devas. There were also the highest level of gods, the Brahma gods, and Maha Brahma, the highest God.

Indeed many Thai religious ceremonies are heavily influenced by Hindu ritualistic practices even amulet consecrations. Buddhism as a religion is deeply rooted in early Hinduism from which it developed.

The description of Brahma like other deities of Hinduism bears a mystic symbolism. The lotus represents the Reality. Brahma sitting on the lotus indicates that he is ever-rooted in the infinite Reality. Reality is the foundation on which his personality rests. The four faces of Brahma represent the four Vedas. They also symbolise the functioning of the inner personality (antahkarana) which consists of thoughts. They are the mind (manas), the intellect (buddhi), ego (ahamkara) and conditioned-consciousness (chitta). They represent the four ways in which thoughts function. They are the manifestations of the unmanifest Consciousness

The significance of the 4 faced God from the Thai perspective is that the Great Brahma is able offer help to the people who cry to him from all directions, granting wishes to those who ask. It is widely thought that Phra Phrom offers protection from danger and prosperity in business.

The most famous image of Brahma or Phra Phrom is located at the Erawan Shrine which can be found at the intersection between Ratchadamri Road and Ratchaprasong Road in Pathum Wan district, Bangkok, Thailand. It is a popular tourist attraction and often features performances by resident Thai dance troupes, who are hired by worshippers in return for seeing their prayers at the shrine answered.

Interestingly Lord Brahma is not popularly worshipped in India. This is so, because the idea of creation is repugnant to seeker of Truth since the creation of thoughts has veiled the infinite Reality. The attempt of all spiritual seekers is to destroy the existing thoughts and maintain the state of single pointed thought until the Reality is revealed. Hence, Shiva (god of destruction) and Vishnu (god of maintenance) are worshiped more than Brahma.

Phra Phrom will save you from black magic and the evil ones, brings you happiness, money and prosperity, help to make your good wishes come true, providing protection from danger, and endow the wearer with good luck and and fortune.


The significance of the the various objects held in the hands are:

1.Book signifies wisdom (Panna) leading to the right path to success
2.Chanting Beads signifies cultivation of good karma in the cycle of birth and death (Samsara)
3.Jug signifies ample water (wealth) where one would not be out of thirst opportunity to earn a living
4.Baton is used to discard all obtacles created by the evil ones
5.Shell signifies bringing luck and obtaining precious ones
6.Hand on the Chest signifies protection and safety

Rian Phra Uphakut Jok Bart the belief or ideology of creating an idol of Phra Maha Thera Uphakut is prevalent in Burma, Mon, and in Lanna or in Northern Thailand. There is a story that has been passed down from generation to generation in the past. 

A Rangkun villager had the opportunity to offer alms to Phra Uphakut and later became a millionaire. When the townspeople heard the news, they all prepared food so that they could offer alms to Phra Uphakut. In the Northern part of Thailand, in Chiang Mai, villagers like to make merit on the full moon day that falls on Wednesday at Wat Uphakut because it is believed that on that day, Phra Uphakut will come out to receive alms. First generation built on the occasion of the construction of a monk's house, a pavilion for worship of Wat ThungPong. It is a Rian (coin) that is worth using and collecting in the future that is rare. 
[Meaning on the Rian]
Looks like an oval shape. In front is Phra Maha Thera Uphakut, in the posture of a Buddha, sitting on an inverted lotus base. Means not starvation, have food, have to use. Under the base will be the shape of turtles and fish swimming in the water.

Phra Upakut was a Monk in the times of Maharaja Asoka the Indian king who first promoted Buddhism. In this time Buddhism was experiencing a lot of disarray and downfall because a lot of false people were entering Monkhood just to make money or eat free.

As a result the local people did not have much faith and were losing their faith in Buddhism. King Asoka (we call Asoka in Thai) was then calling upon the monks to do something - they had a committee meeting and it came about that some monks knew of a monk called Phra Upakut who was sat in the "belly button of the Ocean" (Sander Tale), meditating and entering Nirodha and Samaddti state of meditation (enlightened and free from suffering).It wold have been so difficult to find a monk whose practice and purity was higher than this one - so they decided to elect him to be the leader of the Sangha in order to save Buddhism.
2 kinds of worshipping reasons
One reason is that he is a subdue of Mara demons and thus protects you from danger. Second reason is that he is a keeper of purity precepts whilst sitting in the middle of the water - this means he will prevent you from having any heated feelings or things that cause you to be disturbed, angry frustrated or unhappy..all these things are "hot" feelings.. the water around this Buddha, and his purity will keep you and your household cool and peaceful instead of hot and bothered. No heated disturbances in the household and family.

Pra Upakut is severely revered also in Chiang Mai province and most amulets and statues of him will be made there. This is probably the Burmese influence too because in past times Burma was always overlapping into the province and even to this day you can see that the monks in North Thailand wear red robes like in Burma not yellow like in the rest of Thailand.
The reason he is called Bua Khem is because khem (needles ) was used to refer to the Buddha Arahant relics used to implant in this statue (in original large statues of him) where 9 needles or relics were inserted into his forehead (1) shoulders (2) hips (2) Hands (2) and Knees (2)

Worship Phra Upakut:
Healthy, happiness, calm, peace etc all what you wish for. Great for wealth in place of business.

致富佛陀 ~ 乌巴库尊者(水财神)


乌巴库尊者出生于玛辜拉村庄一户有钱的生意人家中,家中有三名男孩,乌巴库是排名最小的,乌巴库会出家是因为他父亲曾答应过一位大师,如果有生儿子,一定会让儿子出家当和尚,而家中两位兄长都不愿意出家当和尚,就只好把这个责任交付给小儿子了。

起初,乌巴库也不愿接受父亲的要求,只想在家当个普通的生意。

有一天,父亲让乌巴库顾店,那天生意出奇的好,是乌巴库天生的好运使家里的生意兴旺起来,就在同一天,

多年前与父亲相约过的那位大师也有来店里拜访,说了一些佛经的故事给乌巴库听,乌巴库听得非常入神,大师见乌巴库颇有佛缘的样子,便提起了那个约定,就在这天,乌巴库决定出家了。乌巴库出家后,努力钻研佛经,后来甚至成为教述佛经的老师,门徒多达18,000位,是当时拥有最多门徒的老师。后来乌巴库练就到可移形幻影,拥有想去哪里就能去哪里的能力,也因为这样,乌巴库成为第一位能使出很多神奇法术的佛门弟子,除了自由来去的能力,他还能让动物停止动作或是可以坐在水面上!
这尊佛像称为(译音)乌巴库佛陀,据说是一尊超级会招财的致富佛。

(译音)乌巴库佛陀在古代的泰国、 缅甸和柬埔寨都是众所皆知的招财佛陀。

但是除了泰国北部地区之外,其他地区比较少看这尊佛像。

在泰国书上有个故事:据说古代在缅甸有一个信徒供养乌巴库尊者食物,不久之后竟然成为一位非常有钱的大富翁,这使当时的信徒在星期三的时候会很早起床煮饭,供养乌巴库尊者。 

而乌巴库尊者有另一个名称(译音)帕福钱,在缅甸被称为(译音)帕朋兜乌;在早期的时候,只要配戴供养乌巴库尊者的信徒,皆能感受到尊者对于招财和防小人的效力。

据说乌巴库尊者是在海底修行的,而且佛寺在供奉乌巴库尊者时,皆会在尊者像的底下供上一池水,因此乌巴库也会被称为〝水中生财佛〞,
是一尊非常特别且充满传奇的招财佛。

传说佛历218年,阿育王要建造八万四千佛塔,并进行佛教的第三次集结法会,需用到七年七月七天。
由于耗时甚长,因此很多高僧和众神皆不敢守护这场法会,因此他们合力推荐乌巴库尊者。他们便前去将海底炸掉,邀请乌巴库尊者出世,
来协助阿育王建造佛塔。乌巴库尊者听闻之后,便答应了。
在那次的法会中,恶龙用呼风唤雨的邪法欲将这场法会破坏殆尽。 
因此乌巴库尊者幻化出一只狗尸挂在恶龙的脖子上,其无法将狗尸取下来。
恶龙也只好回去请乌巴库尊者将狗尸解开,
但是乌巴库尊者深知恶龙本性难移,因此取下身上的一块圣布将恶龙绑在
某座山下,经过七年七月又七天,直到这些佛塔完成之后,才放开这只恶龙。
“供奉或佩戴乌巴库尊者可以带来好运,
生意兴隆,事事顺心,
防小人,招贵人。”

乌巴库尊者的开示:

一、曾有一位缅甸施主在周三时,以食物供养尊者,而成为大富翁.所以缅甸人相信在每周三清早,能供养到沙弥、僧众时,即能祈求福报、财富.

二、若有人身上配戴尊者圣像,即可具有招财、防范小人、及除障的效力.

三、供养尊者时,会在底下供上一小池水,因为尊者又名[招财佛],尊者发愿以财富护持所有发善心供养三宝的僧众及在家佛教徒。

四、佛历二一八年,阿育王要建八万四千佛塔及进行第三次结集法会.需用七年七月七日,时间甚长,许多高僧及善神不敢发心护持这场法会,便合力推荐在海底修行的[尊者].祈请尊者出世,助建佛塔.法会中,恶龙呼风唤雨破坏一切,尊者化出狗尸持龙脖子上,无法解下.龙求尊者解开,知龙恶性难移,取下身上之圣布将龙绑在山下经七年七月七日,塔完成后,才予以解开.

五、尊者手持莲花又称[莲花佛],为古印度时的一位阿罗汉,发愿从释迦世尊入灭,直至弥勒菩萨降生以前,保护佛法及一切护持佛法的大德.

六、尊者具有广大神通,过去常有许多僧众外出托钵回来时,往往已过中午,慈悲的尊者便仰头微笑向太阳,太阳即移回过午的时刻.以方便僧众用斋.

七、又名「优婆菊多尊者」又称「禅定第一」亦称「无相佛」,是佛涅盘后第四祖,阿育王朝代之国师,主持第三次佛经结集,护持阿育王建八万四千佛塔降伏魔障。图中头朝太阳脸微笑,以大悲神通力令太阳不过午,以让托钵小沙弥能持戒来得及用午斋,故太阳神是其护法。在水中修行故称[水中佛]
