Ecclesiastical-Rank Promotion Medal — Luang Pho Itthi, Wat Chulamanee, B.E. 2553 (2010)

The ecclesiastical-rank promotion medal of Phra Khru Sophitwiriyaphon, or Luang Pho Itthi Bhaddacaro, of Wat Chulamanee, was created on the occasion of Luang Pho's promotion in ecclesiastical rank. It was released for veneration on 21 March B.E. 2553 (2010), with Luang Pho Itthi himself overseeing every step of its design and creation.

The Consecration

Luang Pho Itthi brought this edition into the consecration rite himself, again and again, no fewer than 20 times. During that period he was invited to join consecration rites on nearly every day, and he would often carry this set of medals with him to empower through meditative resolve at almost every occasion — and so it is a medal that passed through the most intensive empowerment.
