Phra Buddha Chinnarat Indochina: In 1940, the smell of war spread throughout the Indochina region. Many countries were at war. During times of war, the thing that is like a spiritual anchor for Thai people is "sacred objects - the guardian deity of the country". However, for soldiers who have to be on the front lines, "amulet" is considered an auspicious object that many people must carry with them. For this reason, the Thai people in the rear, led by the "Buddhist Association of Thailand", decided to proceed with the construction of a "Phra Buddha Chinnarat" replica for worship, along with a small cast of Phra Buddha Chinnarat that can be worn around the neck.
Which was originally the intention of two Buddhist associations, namely the "Buddhist Association" and the "Youth Buddhist Association", but had to be put on hold since 1940 because of a serious war. And when the Indochinese War ended In 1942, the Buddhist Association of Thailand seriously moved forward with the construction of the "Phra Buddha Chinnarat". The Phra Buddha Chinnarat, Indochina model, year 1942, had a gold casting ceremony at Wat Phra Sri Rattana Mahathat, Phitsanulok Province, on Saturday, the 5th waxing moon of the 3rd month, corresponding to February 1, 1942, before the Buddhist Association committee came to ask for mercy.
His Holiness Somdej Phra Sangkharat (Pae Tissadeva Mahathera) of Wat Suthat Thepwararam in the matter of the Buddha Abhiseka ceremony. His Majesty graciously allowed the Buddhist Association Committee to bring the Phra Buddha Chinnarat, Indochina model, to the Buddha Abhiseka ceremony at the Ubosot of Wat Suthat Thepwararam on March 21, 1942. With His Holiness Somdej Phra Sangkharat (Pae Tissadeva Mahathera) as the chairman and His Holiness Sri Satchayanamuni (Santi) as the organizer who carried out the ceremony and also performed the gold pouring ceremony to cast the Buddha image according to the recipe for making the Phra Kring Phra Chaiwat of Wat Suthat.
The Buddha Abhiseka ceremony held at that time was considered to be an unprecedentedly grand ceremony that is still talked about today because many monks from all over the country and famous monks of that era presented amulet plates and traveled to join in the blessing ceremony in large numbers.
