In the Chinese tradition of Feng Shui, the turtle is known as a good fortune animal bringing prosperity, good luck and long life. For this reason the Tao Reuan is sometimes referred to as the wealth turtle.
Among the benefits bestowed on the wearer of the Sak Yant Tao Reuan are;
Metta Mahah Niyom: With this blessing you will be treated by others with great loving kindness and compassion which will improve your popularity and help you to gain preferential treatment.
Klaeoklad: This benefit ensures that the wearer will not suffer serious injury.
Chok Lap: Luck and good fortune
The Mantra or Katha associated with the Tao Reuan turtle tattoo Yant is as follows
Si Moe Nah Sang
Moe Nah Sang Si
Nah Sang Si Moe
The short version of this mantra is Sang Si Moe Nah
We would like to thank Phra Ajarn Dton Tanawiiro in Chiang Mai for allowing us to photograph his work.
