Amulets of Lord Yama.
(Thai: Phaya Yam or Phaya Yom ).
*
Yama is the god of death and the lord of the underworld Narok .
He should not be seen as a "demon" or an evil deity,
but simply as " one who applies Karma " at the time of death.
*
In Tantric Buddhism he is named Chogyal and is a Dharmapala
with an angry face, a necklace of skulls and various weapons
(sword, axe, staff and noose).
Yamantaka is also an aspect of the God Yama among the Tibetans.

Yama amulets are rare and seen as
powerful protections against evil and revenant spirits.
