A New Bangkok 2024


Thai Airways was chosen for her good timing & cost. Landed at around 2pm. Nice lunch, wine & service. Clearance took about 15 mins. Fast! Just Thai & Intl passports counters. No More Asean, HK or Sg. As usual took public taxi at the main airport.


Main purpose of this trip was to visit 4-Faced Buddha, Erawan Shrine. If budget allowed, would stay the next door hotel, Grand Hyatt. Always enjoy Pratunam area, Well, the previous hotel that i used to stay was gone due to the lockdown. This time chose a new hotel to me, Grand Diamond Suites. A 28 floors property. Next to the popular Platinum Fashion Mall. Along the main road. It's restaurant, swimming pool, gym etc Value for $ for a 45sqm room.




The most famous 4-Faced Buddha Erawan Shrine is crowded always. Not allowed to light joss or candle still. Get the praying items & flowers etc from the counter inside the ares is ideal. If you wish to sponsor Elephants of any sizes can approach them too. Inviting Dancers has the usual long Q. Don't forget to donate at the Donation Box nearby. Was told if you wish to donate Big Amount, can go to the shrine office at the basement of Hyatt hotel.
To know 4-Faced Buddha better, do visit My Fate with 4-Faced Buddha page of this Blog.



This Big C dept store opp Central World is very popular. Surprisingly on a Sunday night no crowd rushed to pack their items. Only many group tours with their leaders waving flags. And tour buses waited outside. My Japanese set dinner was good & fair price. Many other shops & restaurants, big & small worth your visit.


 






                       A Thai friend brought me to 2 first class Royal Temples. Wat Bowon & Wat Suthat.

5 mins walk from Wat Suthat was a Thai Bread Shop. Quite crowded. We ate Thai Bread with Kaya.





On a weekday, at about 4pm, I tried to catch a cab from Pratunam to Wat Rakang. First 10 cabs didn't want to go by metre. Thay asked for between 250 & 400 baht! The 11th metre taxi came. It costed 115 baht. Tipped him 5 baht.

The legendary former Abbot of the Bell Temple, Somdej Toh, came to my dream thrice. 1st taught me to chant a simple mantra. 2nd told me to visit Wat Rakang. I went in 2018. 3rd told me to go Wat Rakang & stay for the Evening Prayer. In 2019, around Mar or Apr, I booked the air ticket & hotel but failed to go. Lock down!

After 5 years I made it but didn't stay for the Evening Prayer. Lots of changes in the Temple. Extensively renovated. Many Donation Boxes. 

The case of Somdej Toh tamed the Ghost Wife was made into movie. Somdej Amulet created by the great Monk now commands S$1 million no less!

Do surf Thai Buddhism & I, and Thai Amulets & Power Tools page of this Blog.

Outside the popular Platinum Fashion Mall now stands a new 4-Faced Buddha Shrine. Joss & Plates are kept in a cabinet next to it which is near a big P signage.

Platinum Fashion Mall stands strong still. As usual very crowded. The Food Court on level 6 now uses Cash Card payment. No more cash to buy vouchers. Worth the visit.


                                                                       Must buy always

                                              Watch Straps changed. Better quality & price.


Husband & Wife cook very nice Beef Soup Mee at 100 baht only. Next to Soi 21 0r 23 Pratunam. Glad they remember me.


Food needs no introduction. Venue an air-con seafood restaurant at Pratunam main road. Fair price. Good service.


                                                 Abalone Fish Ball Mee in a MBK restaurant. 

MBK mall previously known as BKK People's Park. Still vibrant. Many good bargains & food too.

Had Foot Massage twice at different shops. 250 baht. Have many types of Body Massages too. Healthy.

Each time I go Bkk will have Shampoo & Cut at this Salon at Soi 15 Pratunam. Although price was raised, only 250 baht. 



 



After settled down then realised it's a Burmese restaurant. Full Burmeses, Staff & Music. Tea & light Soup were free. Fair price with good service. Along Pantip IT Mall.

I was right this's a new gate. Still have to catch a " LRT " to another building called Satellite 1. Just liked in Changi Airport T1 to T2 etc. Some duty free shops were seen. Well, now at Departure clearance, needs not remove shoes & belt. Due to very heavy rain, my flight was delayed for half hour.

At Changi Airport, collection of baggages took longer time. Many didn't see their baggages. A passenger pointed us to look at the end of the belt. To our surprise, many baggages were jammed there! Many baggages were fallen onto the floor. Like many others, I picked up my luggage from the floor.

When unpacking at home, saw the luggage had 3 cracks! 1 was no less thn 30cm. Already informed Changi Airport. they replied that matter were be looked into. To claim from Insurance, have to show many documents.

                        

A Thai made Award Winning 2022 Shiraz. Got it at Bkk Airport for 990 baht. Can't recall what was the 1st one in around 2018. Also from the airport. Many years ago watched a documentary on Thai made Wine. Amazing! Tasted good.  


A very happy 5D 4N trip in May. Surely look forward to more. Buddha Bless All.

Miracle: They came to Eat

for about a month, Orr couldn't sleep well. every few nights, in a half awake, half asleep stage, she saw many dark shadows moved around in her room! she felt pain too. 

this elderly lady came for checking. it said her Ancestors needed things & food. the next day, she bought some paper clothes & hell money. Orr went downstairs to burn the things to the Ancestors. lunch time, she cooked few dishes of Vegetarian food, put on the dining table to offer to the Ancestors. 

that night Orr slept well. They came in her dream to thank her for the items & food. 

Orr decided to do such Offerings every lunar 1st & 15th day of every month.

Miracle: Who Saved Kim?

 

after winter solace, Kim attended a funeral wake for a few nights. if the deceased was not a very closed relative, he would not attend. for his chinese zodiac sign was not supposed to attend funeral in the following year. 

old chinese believes that after winter solace means it's into the new year already. to be careful, it's best to follow the dos & don'ts of the following year. to be on the safe side, Kim wore several Amulets at the wake. 

shortly after chinese new year, for the next 3 months, Kim felt easily tired, sleepy & lost about 2 kg! he got to take nap often. also appetite wasn't good. a few friends told him of his changes.

Kim thought it might be due to age. as he moved into 60. he didn't have any major illness. such unexpected change carried on for another month. he decided to visit the polyclinic, hoping to get some vitamin or supplement. 

after hearing Kim's situation, instead of giving him vitamin or supplement, the doctor suggested Blood Test. the next day the blood test result showed infection at somewhere but unsure where. also enzyme in liver rather high. certainly surprised Boon! doctor wrote a letter & recommended him to go to A & E in hospital for further check-up.

Kim discussed the matter with the family. maybe they're old chinese, go hospital seemed scary! he decided not to go. just monitor. as next month was his yearly medical check up at the polyclinic. moreover he felt his appetite improved, gained a kg, quite active, & less sleepy.

at the medical check up session, the doctor was quite surprised that Kim didn't go to the hospital the last time. Boon told the doctor that he felt he's all right. further blood test was required.

a week later, the doctor shared the good news with Kim that everything was good. he asked Kim whether he went for TCM or self-medication. No said the happy man.

how did Kim get the illness? how did he recover?

Kim is a devoted Buddhist. he prays twice a day.

9th Luck or Period 9 九运

 

A school of Feng Shui believes every 20 years is a cycle from 1 to 9. Now we're in 8th Luck or Period 8. Well, many believe we're already into 9th Luck or Period 9. Such a major change will usually bring War & Illness at a start! 

Officially 9th Luck, 九运, starts 4/2/2024 to 2044. Two key areas to take note are North & South. If North has Water, example sea, river etc will prosperous. If South has Mountain, Hill or big building will be rich.

In your property, you can put Water item, example Fountain, Aquarium, Water base plant etc  in the North to enrich the area. Do take note that if you're to avoid Water then ignore such way. Also if your North is not to have Water item then keep off. In the South, can have tall lucky item such as Crystal. 

North is Water. Paint the area Blue, Black or White is ideal. Put things of such colour ok too. South is Fire. Ideal colour Red, Green, Yellow.  

One can put up the items now. No harm, if you don't wish to activate 9th Luck. 

I feel that Movement of Yearly Stars is important. Example where's the Wisdom Star in 2023? What to put there?   

It's predicated that in 9th Luck, middle-aged women will shine. New Age items will move to the next level.

Good Luck

My Fate with 4-Faced Buddha

Erawan Shrine Bangkok

 
Can invite Dancers at a fair cost 
 
Golden Mile Complex




 
 twice 4-Faced Buddha of golden mile complex came in my dream. thus confirmed its power!

1. about 1 year + ago during lock down, 4-Faced Buddha of golden mile complex told me in dream to go pray there. before lock down i used to visit Bangkok annually to pray to her Erawan Shrine 4-Faced Buddha. during lock down, there wasn't urge to visit any 4-Faced Buddha Temple or Shrine in Singapore.

of course i heeled the dream. chose Thu to visit golden mile complex for the late strong follower of 4-Faced Buddha, Mr Victor Khoo ever said that Thu, i.e. 4th day of the week, was the best day to pray to 4-Faced Buddha. better still if it could be 4pm. 

every Thu if no rain will go around lunch time. picked up some flowers at the shop there & offered to the 4-Faced Buddha. then had Thai food for lunch in the mall. also bought Lottery at a shop there. quite lucky. better to go on a fine day for if rained, it'll wet the Shrine area including the joss-sticks shelves.

before this new event, my last visit to Golden Mile was more than 30 years ago.

2. when Channel News Asia contacted me for an interview about the 4-Faced Buddha of golden mile, we're keen to know, when the Shrine was there?    

13 July 1972 or 1973. 4-Face Buddha told me in dream. later it's confirmed to be 1973 by the caretaker of the Shrine at golden mile complex.

although my interview with CNA was omitted, some shots of me praying to the 4-Face Buddha were shown. have to thank CNA for having me to be part of her documentary, On-The-Red Dot Losing Landmarks. available in Mewatch On-The-Red Dot.

Golden Mile Complex, affectionately known as Little Thailand, was sold. all must move out by Apr 2023.

there's a relative who's quite seriously ill. during my visit, asked for his recovery to the 4-Face Buddha. the wish came true. he recovered without operation. 

my fate with 4-Faced Buddha went back a few decades ago. during that era, it's popular in most homes to have a small statue of 4-Faced Buddha. dreamed my home should have one. told my mum. she brought it in later.

in the 90s, a client invited me to Bangkok. told me that when he first joined the stock broking firm business was quite bad. his boss then told him to go pray to 4-Faced Buddha Erawan Shrine in Bangkok. he went & made a wish that he be successful. if so, every year he'll return. before his retirement a few years ago, he still go Bangkok yearly.

trust that the Front of Phra Phrom is for All Round Luck including Business, Career, Family etc. clockwise, the 2nd side is for Relationship. 3rd is for Wealth. 4th is for Health. 

9 Nov is 4-Faced Buddha's Birthday.

i'm from Mahayana Buddhism so didn't pay much attention to 4-Faced Buddha or Phra Phrom in Thai language. only about a decade ago, when my family & i started to frequent Bangkok for Thai food & Shopping. it became an usual routine, first to 4-Faced Buddha Erawan Shrine then to food & shopping.

when my son was in sec 2, his marks were borderline especially English. i went to Erawan Shrine. the only wish was his marks to be better. in that final year exam, he came in 3rd in class!. his usual position was 11 to 20.

in these few years, came to know more about Thai Buddhism. quite often use its Amulets to be auspicious items in my Feng Shui. 

in a dream, my present 2 pieces of 4-Faced Buddha amulets, told me to get a 3rd pieces. to wear 3 in 1. my Thai amulet dealer helped out.

well, i was late for the moving out ceremony of 4-Faced Buddha golden mile in Apr. it's moved to a Thai Temple for restoration. on May 11, it's placed at the century old Long San Buddhist Temple, Race Course Road. will try to visit it one day.

do visit the other pages in this Blog, Thai Buddhism & 1, Thai Amulets & Power Tools, & Wealth Turtle.

will load more photos soon . 

 

Danny Cheong - 25/5/23


Long San Buddhist Temple recently celebrated 1st Anniversary of the former Golden mile 4-Faced Buddha at her area. Well, during the celebration, I was in Bangkok. For a year, I've yet to visit the 4-Faced Buddha. Wait for the right date to visit.

Outside the famous Bangkok Platinum Fashion Mall stood a new 4-Faced Buddha Shrine. Next to it is a metal cabinet where the Joss & Plates are kept.
