Fasamang kham, the heavenly message from Indra to human beings in the world. The text also contains a protective text of khatha (incantations) in Pali in order to recite by heart and a written text for keeping in the house. In Sangkat (Culasakkarat) 1250 (AD 1888) there happened a war and dangers for all human beings. The bad persons who are lacking of morality and not respected to each other would be killed by themselves. Only the ones who are aware of good deed and follow the Teachings of the Buddha would escape from the dangers. The ones who have this Fasamang kham text in their houses would also be safe from all bad happenings. Colophon: Folio 9 on the recto side: Sangkat (CS) 1278, a hwai si year, on the seventh day of the waxing moon of the third lunar month, the third day of the week (Tuesday), a tao san day, the writing was accomplished at the time of kòng ngai (between 7.30–9.00 o’clock). The initiator, Thit Duang together with all his children and siblings had the ardent religious faith to sponsor the making of this manuscript entitled Fasamang Kham to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May all my desires and wishes come true. Nirvana is the greatest bliss.
