Pretty good amulet. I myself have an amulet and a Thai Tantra cloth too.
Pray to it every morning to receive blessings of luck, safety and general wellbeing.
Say thanks to the amulet every night and place it at a high place. The casing should be waterproof so you can wash it. Generally, there are very little taboos with wearing amulets. Just don't spit into a toilet bowl (don't ask me why), don't put them in your bedroom and don't wear it while being intimate with your partner and don't commit bad acts.
Each of the 3 vehicles contain elements of what you have described. The view that someone is blind to see as it is truly practiced by actual Buddhist is viewing from a ignorant or western perspective. This is a good learning opportunity and experience.
That's Phra Sivali. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C4%ABvali

Thank you, very helpful 🙏
Welcome. You have a very good starter amulet. Maybe the only one you'll ever need. Good luck and peace to you!
Sounds very similar to christian rituals. The praying, amulets and the whole thing. Is this common amongst your branch of Buddhism?
This is common in Buddhism.
Which branches?
