Sak Yant Chiang Mai - Prajao Sip Hok Phra Ong

The Sak Yant design PraJao Sip Hok Phra Ong is one of the most powerful protection Yants available. Prajao Sip Hog Phra Ong means “16 Buddhas”.

This Sak Yant was given by the Sak Yant Master Phra Ajarn Dton in Chiang Mai and if you look at the last photograph in our photo series below, you will see that he has adapted the original design. Long before these Yants were tattooed onto the skin, they were frequently printed onto cloth or wood and often printed onto a shirt. The wearer of the shirt would receive the same benefits and protection that people today who have the Yants tattooed onto the skin receive. Phra Ajarn Dton considers that his variation of the design is more appropriate for tattooing than the original design, but of course it still retains the essential elements and benefits. Many of the Sak Yant Masters in Thailand will have their own variations of the traditional designs.

The benefits granted to the wearer of the Sak Yant Prajao Sip Hok Phra Ong are as follows:

Kong Kra Phan: Magical protection and invincibility.

The Mantra incorporated in the Prajao Sip Hok Phra Ong Yant is

Na Ma Na A
Naw Gaw Na Ga
Gaw Awe Naw A
Na A Ga Ang
