Yant Phaya Krut & Narai Song Krut (Royal Garuda & Chakravartin Seal)
Heraldic yantra of Supanna (Phaya Krut / Garuda) with outstretched wings framed by the four elemental syllables and the Eight-Spoked Sudarshana Chakra, associated with Luang Phor Wara of Wat Pho Thong and Wat Traimit.
Centers on the spread-winged Garuda silhouette flanked by Solar (Suriya) and Lunar (Canda) disks at the wingtips, an Unalome crown above the beak, and the four syllables 'Ka Ru Pi Ja' across the chest and talons.
In Siamese royal and monastic iconography, Phaya Krut represents sovereign authority (Maha Amnaj), civil service honour, and the Supanna-samyutta of the Pali Canon. Often paired with Phra Narai (Vishnu) on the reverse of Rian medallions and tri-coloured Phayant cloths.
