Pilgrims Flock to Luang Por Pak Daeng Temple Seeking Lottery Numbers
Hundreds of pilgrims visited Wat Luang Por Pak Daeng in Nakhon Nayok to seek lottery numbers and blessings from the revered temple statue ahead of the July 16 draw.
On July 16, 2569, visitors continued visiting Wat Luang Por Pak Daeng in Ban Yai Subdistrict, Muang District, Nakhon Nayok Province, to pay respects to the revered Luang Por Pak Daeng statue and seek blessings for luck, business success, and trouble resolution. Pilgrims presented offerings, paid homage to the golden Thao Wessuwanna Buddha image, released fish as merit-making, and paid respects to an ancient boat. They also peered into the sacred water basin set up by temple staff to spot lottery numbers ahead of the July 16 draw, with numbers including 9, 4, 2, 1, and 9 reported.
Wat Phramani is another over-100-year-old temple where the sacred Luang Por Pak Daeng Buddha image draws devoted worshippers who present offerings of bananas, betel nuts, garlands, and red water to seek blessings. The statue is prominently displayed in the temple's ordination hall.
PhraTeepwatchiphromakun (Luang Por Tung Vajasidhis), the provincial ecclesiastical officer and abbot, said he hoped all devotees would achieve success in their wishes and encouraged them to create merit, as goodness eventually returns to those who practice it.
