Just Out Of Interest Amulets ?

[colino]

Just wondering how much is spent on amulets

by everyones partners and when is enough ,?

my wife and family cant seem to pass a temple without popping in and getting something

[mmushr00m]

Got my 1st one, when the wife was doing merit ceremony at the temple. Monk had a collection of $bills from all over the world as souvernirs on display. I gave him the C$5 I had on me to add to his collection. He gave me an amulet as a token/gift. I have also been given a few when I visited temples (maybe they can "see" I need it)So now I have

1 - protection against accident

1 - protection against enemies

1 - "see no evil" for evil/bad things to bypass me

1 - good fortune (from wife's family)

So unless you count my gift, We have spent nothing.

The question now is....should I wear all of them on a chain at the same time?????

My bf has a million I swear! He and all his friends trade them like baseball cards. So he doesn't spend much on any of them. Him and his friends wear many on the same chain at one time. He did spend money to get a 'special' kind of chain made that you could hook different ones around the chain and then at the bottom is a piece of paper or something from a monk that was put into a plastic case that sits at the bottom of the chain maybe cost 250 baht to make...First the village all went to get the Buddhist tattoos and now the amulets are the latest rage... According the the amulets my bf must be invinvible by now.
