Curse beads from Myanmar Buddhist temple
Bronze alloy. Solid pour casting.
The year is unknown. It is estimated to be in the 19th-20th century.
After returning to Taiwan, I scrubbed and removed the oxidized skin.
The pearls appear yellow and bright when taking pictures. However, if they are not wiped afterwards, they will still become oxidized and dim.
The alloy beads contain gold, but the proportion is not high.
During refining, cinnabar is added and melted together.
Because it has a very strong magnetic field, it can suppress ghosts and other evil objects.
It is a very good protection, barrier, and lucky amulet.
It is also often used for laying foundations, forming boundaries, etc.
Nowadays, some people use it for spiritual practice and meditation.
Placing it in a Buddhist hall or on a car can change the Feng Shui magnetic field.
It has been glued to the Stainless Steel disc base with a base width of 1.6 cm.
It can be carried with you, hung on your waist, or strung on a key ring or mobile phone. Use it as a lucky protective sacred object.
As for the efficacy of Dalong's curse beads...
You can check it online. There is a lot of information. I won’t go into details.
There are two curse beads numbered AB.
*************************
The 4 geometric totems on the mantra bead.
It cannot be found on Douyin in mainland China.
There is no information on GOOGLE either.
Even found a bunch of Burmese collectors' websites on Facebook...
But there are only Buddha statues, wooden beads, ancient beads, jewelry, opium weights... these cultural relics...
In many Burmese collectors' websites, I can't find any information about Talong mantra beads...
I didn't expect that the Dalong Cursed Beads... are so special and rare.
Currently, there are only 3 opinions obtained from colleagues in Taiwan. Please refer to them.
The 1st statement.
A fellow seller in the north said it was a Mercury curse.
The second argument.
According to the cultural relic dealer who sells curse beads, it is a star totem that represents the sun, moon and other cosmic bodies.
The third argument.
Peer seller research in the central region concluded:
It should be the initial alphabet of a certain local script in ancient Myanmar.
It has a very special and profound meaning...
Said in 3 above.
