On 10 June 2026 GMT+7, reports stated that at Wat Klang Bang Phra, Bang Phra Subdistrict, Nakhon Chai Si District, Nakhon Pathom Province, on 7 June 2026 GMT+7, devotees continuously came to fulfill vows and pay respects to sacred objects, especially “Luang Pho Somwang,” a sacred Buddha statue in the Mara Vichai posture, standing over 30 meters tall, revered by both Thai and foreign worshippers.
The offerings made to fulfill vows vary depending on what each person promised, including flowers, rice, chicken eggs, pig heads, and fruit. Especially notable are the replicas of Luang Pho Somwang statues under whose base many land title deeds from devotees who prayed for success in land transactions are placed.
The daily atmosphere of vow fulfillment is lively. Mr. Phueak, 65, a gardener from Nakhon Chai Si District, was among those who came to offer a large pink lotus tray and 1,000 chicken eggs to Luang Pho Somwang after succeeding as a land broker.
He then went up to pay respects and pray to the main Luang Pho Somwang statue above, applying gold leaf to its right hand and paying homage to the replica statue placed over the land deeds beneath the base, before descending to pray at the outdoor blessing area according to tradition.
Mr. Phueak, 65, revealed that he brought pink lotuses and chicken eggs to fulfill his vow to Luang Pho Somwang. Previously, a relative informed him about selling five rai of land, so he prayed to Luang Pho Somwang to help sell it within two months. His prayer was granted, so he brought the lotus flowers and eggs to fulfill his promise.
Before leaving, he lit auspicious incense sticks that revealed the numbers 5 3 2, which he believes are lucky this time. He hopes Luang Pho Somwang will grant him luck again, and if he wins a big prize, he promises to return and fulfill another vow.
