Abstract
Alena says that amulets for personal use should not come from laypeople but be requested from monks in Buddhist temples. Amulets given by laypeople bring nothing good. Amulets are small bags that hold paper prayers inside. It is forbidden to sew amulets into bags using red, orange or yellow threads. Amulets should be worn around one’s neck. All religious objects, including amulets, altars, etc. should be consecrated by monks.
