Lek Laï is a generic label bestowed upon sundry mineral Magical substances
which have been taken from isolated, unknown caves in the jungles of Thailand.

The words Lek Laï may be translated "steel eel", an allusion to the ability of certain Lek Laï
to assume the liquid state. In many tales, one is assured that Lek Laï is not a simple mineral
but a kind of metal-animal , capable of "swimming across mountains". One of the foremost powers of Lek Laï is to render its wearer invulnerable, and to prevent any fire arms
from going off anywhere near him.
It can just as easily be used as a weapon of attack, at once reverting to the liquid state, flowing toward the victim, invading his body by the nostrils and ears, poisoning his blood and immediately returning to its guardian in its usual state. The consequences of putting Lek Laï into action varying so greatly from one person to another, I insist that clients coming to this site use their intuition and discernment in their resolve to purchaseLek Laï and especially not to employ it as a substitute for medical treatment or putting it to work
as a bullet proof vest. Lek Laï is a gift of Nature; one cannot change it, one cannot improve it in some artificial way. Healers report that it lends its power to theirs, thus increasing their efficacy, as well as lending greater strengths to their medicines. One should keep in mind that each kind of Lek Laï has its own special powers and one should NEVER disrespect and put these powers to the test, either bringing about its disappearance or creating a serious "accident" (for example, no way will Lek Laï do its work if its wearer is dumb enough to be shot voluntary). It is urgent to appreciate that a very, very special substance is being discussed here, that it is known to be lived in by a "spirit", capable of making its own choices and to do damage if not shown respect.

The most common types of Lek Laï should be "fed" at least once a week by putting them in contact with honey, preferably in moonlight. The rest of the time they should be kept either in a reliquary worn about the neck or in a wax capsule. If one doesn't bother to take proper care of one's Lek Laï, it will vanish unexpectedly, no matter what obstacles one attempts to put of to thwart its escape. (For instance, forget about closing it up in a strong lock box - it's useless.)
Your webmaster with Venerable LP Watchara.
Nowadays there still exist rare masters capable of going about the harvesting of lek lai, among them the Venerable LP Watchara Ekawano (only disciple of Most Venerable Ajarn Sarmlit) of the Wat Thamfad temple is the most renowned. He is also the only master in this world capable of insertingLek Laï bits under the skin of his disciples' arms for their protection!
This venerable is also known for his practice of an unusual sort of exorcism
and also his "Blessing of the long wax".

Lek Laï is integral to Thai folklore and there one may find in the cinema a film
where one can watch a Marvel-style super hero whose name in Thaï is Lek Laï
(in English that comes out to "Mercury Man"). Cut by a Lek Lai ritual knife,
his blood was
transformed into Lek Lai , and he displays very startling powers, far from the norm.
Here one sees our hero being wounded with a ritual Lek Laï dagger
and his blood transforming into Lek Lai !
