Anti-Sorcery & Exorcism · ถอนคุณไสย
ว่านปลาไหลม่วง
Wan Pla Lai Muang
Purple Eel Waan
Ritual purpose
Removing/counteracting คุณไสย, คุณผีน้ำมันพราย, ลมเพลมพัด, and other inauspicious influences.
Botanical
Curcuma sp. per BanVanThai; leaves resemble ว่านนางคำ, large round rhizome with purple interior. Keep separate from distinct BanVanThai entries ว่านปลาไหลสอด and ว่านปลาไหลเหลือง. Caution: an English/Chinese-facing Facebook amulet group misidentifies it as "an aloe" — do not adopt that botanical claim; it conflicts with the Curcuma identification.
Origin / legend
No legend; the name is descriptive (purple internal rhizome, eel-like morphology/family grouping).
Consecration method (ปลุกเสก)
Pound the rhizome finely and mix with powder for a poultice or anointing paste. Seller-transmitted method: before applying, recite "นะโมพุทธายะ" according to a day-force count (Sunday 6, Monday 15, Tuesday 8, Wednesday 17, Thursday 19, Friday 21, Saturday 10); every watering empowered with "นะโมพุทธายะ" 3 times.
Katha (คาถา)
นะโมพุทธายะ
namo buddhaya
Homage/seed formula invoking the Five Buddhas in Thai esoteric usage.
Application
Rhizome pounded and mixed with powder, used as poultice/anointing paste at the affected area to draw out the offending influence.
Taboos / restrictions (ข้อห้าม)
- Loose sandy soil cultivation; do not overcover the rhizome beyond just burying it.
Botanical species unresolved (Curcuma sp. only); day-count consecration detail is seller-sourced, weaker evidence. A Facebook amulet group ties it to a Wat Bang Phra/Nakhon Pathom blessed amulet context, but this is an amulet-product claim, not proof the herb itself was separately consecrated there.
