Guman Thong is a child spirit protector
Guman Thong is a Thai word, meaning The Golden Boy.
Guman Thong is a basically an amulet to bring luck, and protection.
What is the material for making a Guman Thong? How is it that people want to get a child spirit protector?
Let us look into the building material for a Guman Thong amulet.
The Buddhist monks in the temple in Thailand will gather the remains of a corpse, such as the soil from the cemetery where the bodies of the children rest.
They would use gold, silver, and other material to make the images.
After that, they will chant for the purpose of teaching Buddhism concepts to the child spirit who is residing in the amulet.
The monks will teach the Guman Thong to do good, in order to accumulate merits for a better rebirth.
When you get a Guman Thong, you are getting more than a piece of silver or gold or wood. You are getting a child.
How should you care for your Guman Thong?
You are the parent of the Guman Thong. Even though Guman Thong has received the teachings from the monks, he is still a kid.
He loves to play. He loves to eat sweets. He will get jealous if you ignore him.
While you cannot hear him wailing for attention, he will use other methods to gain your attention.
For example, he will switch on the TV in the middle of the night, and wake everyone up.
He will play with water, and causes splashing sound.
He will play with your roller blade, and send it flying.
As a responsible parent, it is your duty to teach Guman Thong to behave himself.
How can Guman Thong help you?
For one thing, Guman Thong will protect your house from thieves.
He will make a lot of noise to give the impression that someone is at home.
Guman Thong can bring you luck in all aspects of life too.
Such as getting a better job for you, or helping you find a soul mate.
Guman Thong is doing all his best to ensure that you, as his parent, live happily.
Many people have good experience and bad experience with Guman Thong.
However, not all people can accept the idea of having a child spirit protector.
If you want to get a genuine child spirit, you have to ask from the monks in Thailand. They will give one to you.
If you do not want the Guman Thong anymore, the best is to bring it back to the temple.
