If you are keen to learn Vipassana meditaion, you can also contact Wat Ampawan at Ampur Prom Buri, Sing Buri Province (To get there, you just need to go to Mor Chit 2 Bus Terminal near Chatuchak in Bangkok, take the bus to Sing Buri and tell the bus driver you want to alight at Wat Ampawan. He will inform you when they reached the main road along Asia Highway around 130 km road marker) Luang Po Jarun seldom consecrated amulets as he wants his devotees to practice on meditation instead. However, the temple did came out with a number (though not many) of batches for fund raising and other purposes.
Below are the pics of me visiting Luang Po Jarun for the first time in 1988 for the Loy Krathong (Water Floating Lantern Festival). During that time, the kuti building he was staying had not been rebuilt.
When Luang Po Jarun visited Singapore for the first time in April 1991, I went to receive him at the airport. Luang Po also took time to come to my house which I felt much appreciate even till today.
Some of my collections of amulets of Luang Po Jarun. As Luang Po rarely consecrated amulets for 'sale'at the temple counter, most were given directly from Luang Po after making significant amount of donations or from other close disciples whom made regular donations to upkeep the temple grounds.
我所收藏的部分龙波佳仁圣物佛牌。由于大师以前较少督造圣物放于寺庙柜台让人奉请,大部分的圣物都是在捐出适当金额款项后从大师那亲自得来或从其他近信那得到(常捐赠大笔款项修造寺庙的善信)。
