A large crowd gathered inside a temple as a popular monk performed an ancient ritual to bless the devotees with prayers.

Hundreds of devotees were seen praying and chanting as Jae Itthichoto sprinkled holy water on them in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand, on May 26.

Monk Jae has now attracted a large following and hundreds of followers converge on the temple for his weekly blessings.

Onlooker Khun Ton said: 'It has been a beautiful experience. I count myself lucky to be able to see him in real life.'

The monk’s blessing is a tradition usually performed for special occasions. Devotees believe that the blessing can enhance the auspiciousness of life and offers protection to everyone.
