From wood to Buddha

#SongkranThip Let's go worship and ask for blessings from Luang Por Pan Pi Sri Takian Thong. 🪵From wood to Buddha 🙏 Luang Por Pan Pi Sri Takian Thong is a reclining Buddha statue, 3 meters high and 10 meters long, carved from a thousand-year-old golden teak wood. 🪵It was excavated and sunk more than 5 meters underground during the construction of the Si Yat Dam in Tha Takieb District, Chachoengsao Province. There are 7 postures in total, and some logs have turned to stone. Therefore, it is assumed that these teak woods are thousands of years old. The abbot of Wat Pa Khao Lom has considered the value of the old wood. Therefore, he proceeded to create and carve into various Buddha postures, especially the posture of enlightenment, which is 109 inches wide. The posture of nirvana is 10 meters long and 3 meters high, which is considered one of the largest carved wooden Buddha statues in Thailand. Each statue is carved by skilled craftsmen with great care. Therefore, we would like the public to join in paying homage and spreading Buddhism. If anyone comes to visit Tha Takieb, don't miss it. Because it is considered an Unseen temple with the most Takian trees in the world. Wat Pa Khao Lom is located in Ban Huai Na, Khlong Trakrao Subdistrict, Tha Takiap District, Chachoengsao Province. 📍 Wat Pa Khao Lom https://maps.app.goo.gl/3RtKYH1qKeA9Ay73A #Mr.Tourist #FamilyTrip
