Luang Phor Kui was born on 20th May BE 2464 in Petchaboon Province. His father’s name was Mr Tong Dee while his mother’s name was Mrs Tong. He was given the name “Wichai Rat”. It is said that Luang Phor Kui’s exact birthdate was on BE 2454 but back in those days people that live in the deep forest were having difficult time to travel to the main town area to register a birth of a child.

Luang Phor Kui was a friendly and helpful child. He also liked to practice chanting incantations and Buddhist mantras that his father taught him and was very diligent to put his hearts into everything that he did.

When he reached the age of 12, the unfortunate thing happened. His father passed away. Luang Phor Kui then decided to ordained as a novice monk in front of the funeral pyre of his father to pay respect and make merit for him. However, once the funeral and mourning time was over, he refused to disrobe. Luang Phor Kui then heard the merit and attainments of Luang Phor Tob War Chon Daen. Which made him decide to travel to Wat Chon Daen and learn from Luang Phor Tob.

While he was cleaning the alms bowl of Luang Phor Tob, taking care of the betel and areca nut paraphernalia and making sure of Luang Phor Tob’s Kuti was well kept and swept. Luang Phor Tob noticed the intention of helpfulness and diligence from Luang Phor Kui. Hence, Luang Phor Tob began to teach Luang Phor Kui about Wicha. He teaches Luang Phor Kui about the methods of Takrut Tone, Powerful and Proper Inscription of Yant, Agkhara Spells, Phayant and amulets. He even taught Luang Phor Kui about Vipassana Kammathana methods to master his mind and control psychic abilities.

Soon, Luang Phor Tob taught Luang Phor Kui the Wicha Sek Khaw Sarn Hai Gai Kin (enchanted rice grains to give to a hen) and the intensive detailed methods of making Phra. All of this happened while Luang Phor Kui was still a novice monk but he was already becoming immensely adopted at these Wicha.

When Luang Phor Kui reached the age of 22, he was ordained as a monk on 4th March BE 2486 with Pra Maha Yuak as his Upachaya Ordaining Officer, Pra Atigarn Kampan as his Gammawajajarn Promoting Officer and Pra Atigarn Wan dee as his Anusawanajarn Witness. He received the ‘Chaayaa’ monk name of Tidta Tammo, which means ‘he who has his mind and heart firm in the Dhamma”. After his Ordination, Luang Phor Kui stayed with his Upachayas for 2 years and fulfilled his duties and studied Dhamma further. After this, he asked for permission to leave and return to Wat Chon Daen to continue to learn Wicha Akom Buddha Magic with Luang Phor Tob. Once Luang Phor Kui had finished his years of apprenticeship to Luang Phor Tob, he requested to leave Wat Chon Daen as he was setting off on Tudong both within and outside of Thailand’s borders.

Luang Phor Kui then traveled back to his home district and the Sangha Office. Luang Phor Kui was asked to be the Bishop of Eebun Municipality and administrate the monks and Samaneras of the District. After serving this task for around 10 years, Luang Phor Kui became bored with this task and requested to leave this position as he wanted to go for Tudong once again.

This time during his Tudong, he traveled to Jampa sak in the southern Jungles of Laos, and then further south into Cambodia. he met many forest monks and Ruesi during his trval through the forests of Laos and Cambodia from whom he received the Wicha of Somdej Lun of Laos from Kruba Daeng and Lao-Khmer Sorcery from Luang Phor Gromsorn (Luang Phor Rod) Wat Nong Phai in Khon Gaen.

From  BE 2512- 2517, Luang Phor Kui returned back to Wat Chon Daen to serve Luang Phor Tob once again.Now that Luang Phor Kui has gotten more experience through his Tudong and increased his prowess, Luang Phor Tob began to reveal his complete Compendium of Wicha bestowing all of his knowledge to Luang Phor Kui. It was here that Luang Phuor Kui was able to receive the most highly sought-after Wicha of Luang Phor Suk Wat Pak Klong Makham Tao and was able to meet and receive Wicha from Luang Phor Pra Maha Po Wat Khor Mon and Luang Phor Mui Wat Don Rai.

BUILDING WAT SAP TAKIAN

In BE 2517, Luang Phor Kui  went to Tudong in the area of the Mountain Ranges of Petchaboon, when he came across the area of Ban Tam Duang. He saw the village and foresaw how it would become in the future and in addition saw the peacefulness of the area, its waterfalls and river and natural forests fitting for Dhamma practice, and decided to ‘Pak Glod’ (stake his meditation umbrella) under a tree and stay to practice here. He thus stopped wandering, and the local devotees came to find him in the forest, and invited him to remain and help build a temple where he was practicing at Sap Takian.

The Village of Sap Takian was a small hamlet in the forest that was full of wild animals such as tigers,elephants,poisonous reptiles and insects. It was about forty kilometers through deep forests to get to the nearest small township, and would take weeks to cross the difficult mountainous terrain. So when the locals of the forest village of Tham Duang would become ill, Luang Phor Kui would collect forest herbs and make healing potions instead of taking the long journey to go and buy medicines.

He once healed the whole village of an epidemic with his magical potions. Many devotees of the surrounding villages and townships began to hear of his healing powers and came to heal their ailments. Luang Phor Kui would invite the villagers to come and keep the precepts and listen to the Dhamma, and learn how to Practice, which instilled much faith in them, and people began to come to practice. The temple began to develop, donations came in, and help from the Folk increased constantly. The little Kuti Hut the folk built for him was not to be accompanied by the ‘Senasana’ ancillary buildings, which would become the temple known today as Wat Sap Takian. Luang Phor Kui  was elected to become Abbot by the Sangha and by the local devotees and he remained there and completed many projects including the building of the Uposatha Shrine Room, Sala, and Ancillary Buildings for monks and devotees to practice Dhamma.

He always remained available to help the local folk, teaching of Dhamma and  bless them with his magic and amuelt till the day he passed on. Luang Phor Kui has consecrated lots of amulets which began appearing in the early BE 2540- 2545 which are extremely sought after for their Klaew Klaad and Metta Maha Niyom. The Look Om Chan Hmak of Luang Phor Kui is said to be miraculous and has had various stories of miraculous events in the news with people surviving deadly events who only wore the Chan Hmak Betel-Areca Ball of Luang Phor Kui.

Stories of Luang Phor Kui

1. One man was thrown off his motorcycle and the bike was completely smashed to pieces but the person was unharmed without a scratch. All he had with him was the Look Om Chan Hmak of Luang Phor Kui.

2. Immense fervour arose after a policeman was shot at point blank range by a criminal and the gun refused to fire which saved his life. This event was covered in national news and remains unexplained to this day. The Policeman was astounded as he was on a mission and the criminal started to suspect him and point blank range at him but the gun just won’t not fire. The Policeman was hence able to survive the incident but was curious as to if it was because of the Chan Hmak of Luang Phor Kui he was carrying at the time. So he decided to break the rules of amulets and put it to the test with his revolver by shooting at it. The gun would not shoot repeatedly when he pointed it at the Look om Chan Hmak.

 So the policeman pointed the gun at the ceiling and tried to shoot again. The gun still                         did not shoot, but it broke in half and caused an injury to the policeman’s hand. As  if it was punishing him for being impetuous with the Wicha which had saved his life. The policeman’s gun was broken and he had to be treated at the Infirmary to fix his injuries.

The policeman had to be treated in hospital for the damage done. The testing of amulets with guns is  forbidden as rules of the Kruba Ajarn and the sacred power of amulets was meant to be reserved for saving lives and not for testing the power. This should always be remembered and respected. That the power of an amulet to deflect or forbid bullets, should be left for when it is needed, and not be wasted trying to satisfy curiosity, or deal with doubts.

Luang Phor Kui was famous for his Phra Kring Paetch Glab Buddha statuette. Luang Phor Kui consecrated him following the methods that Luang Phor Tob passed to him.  Other highly favoured and rare amulets of Luang Phor Kui are his Takrut Tone, Takrut Gao Chan, Roop Lor Loi Ongk statuette, and his Khun Phaen amulets. Luang Phor Tob taught Luang Phor Kui to use his famous waving Posture to show his Palm of his Hand for he possessed three major powers that of calling wealth, that of speaking with spirits to convince them to assist and that of turning bad luck into good luck. He blesses his devotees by emanating these three powers with his waving posture. Luang Phor Kui passed on in BE 2554.

Phetchabun Wat Sap Takiam has a well-known abbot, Luang Phor Kui, who has been a monk for more than 75 years.

Luang Phor Kui i was born in Phetchaburi in BE 2454. Because of the remote location, his birth registration was delayed ten years. The eminent monk was born in a poor family. After graduating from primary school at the age of 12, his father passed away in the same year. After his father passed away, he immediately became a monk, hoping to repay his father with the merits of becoming a monk. Until the day when his father’s body was cremated, his mother once expressed the hope that he would return to lay life, but he said to his mother: “He I hope to continue to wear monk robes to benefit the masses.”

He then went to Wat Chon Daem to assist Luang Phor Tob in carrying water, cleaning temples and other chores. Luang Phor Tob appreciated Luang Phor Kui’s efforts at that time, so he taught Luang Phor Kui the magic of blessing amulets, talismans and other sacred objects. Luang It took Phor Kui six years to study these spells seriously. It was not until the age of 22, when he was an adult, that Luang Phor Kui officially became a monk at Wat Srimenkoon.

After Luang Phor Kui practiced Dharma at this monastery for two years, he followed Master Ajahn Lien to meditate in the mountains of Laos (Laos). After that, he returned to Thailand, where he went to study Dharma and magic from Luang Phor Poon Wat Paliom. After a period of study, he returned to Luang Phor Tob. Luang Phor Tob continued to pass on what he had learned throughout his life to his beloved disciple, Luang Phor Kui. After completing his studies, Luang Phor Kui went to retreat in the forest. In BE 2517, Luang Phor Kui practiced in the Saptakhian area. Since the area is far away from the busy area, the master thought it was very suitable to build a Buddhist temple as a place of practice. Therefore, Luang Phor Kui talked to the local people and raised funds, and everyone was very willing to help after knowing it. The eminent monks established Wat Sap Takiam with the money and efforts of the believers. After the establishment of this Buddhist temple, Luang Phor Kui supervised the system to bless more than 50 holy relics, and the amount raised will be used as the money for the expansion of the temple. It can be seen that Luang Phor Kui is a very firm master in practice, which is admired by the local people.

Luang Phor Kui is one of the eminent monks in Thailand. It can be said that everyone in the local area is well-known and has a deep practice. Among the amulets he supervised, Khun Paen and Guman are the most famous. From the perspective of efficacy, they are most famous for attracting wealth and preventing disasters. Even the master’s photo always holds his right hand high up (like a lucky cat), as if to sign for fortune. Because Luang Phor Kui is relatively low-key and doesn’t play many cards, few people know about it. After the supervision of the first phase of the early Futong holy relics, they just started to be openly invited by believers. Within a few days, they were all sold out. , the current market value continues to soar because it is rare in the market.

There was once a taxi driver who had been practicing for about five years. His daily income was either enough to live on or not enough to support his family. Once, he heard a fellow driver say that Luang Phor Kui was going to another Buddhist temple. He really wanted to visit Luang Phor Kui, but he had to drive a taxi all day to support his family. So he took the photo of Luang Phor Kui and thought that if he had the money to visit the master, it would be a Great thing.

Later, a guest suddenly asked his taxi to take him to the destination. Although the taxi meter only jumped to 300 yuan at that time, he did not expect the guest to generously give him 1,000 yuan and the other money as a tip. The driver is very He happily took the money to visit Luang Phor Kui, and asked the eminent monk’s treasure to be hung on the taxi. Since then, he did not expect that many customers would greet his taxi every day, so that his daily business could make a profit of 800- 1,000 yuan. The taxi driver was therefore deeply impressed by Master’s merciful blessing.

In BE 2551, there was a person who did not believe in the magic power of Luang Phor Kui amulet and wanted to try the power of the holy relics of eminent monks. Although Laung Phor Kui was kind, he said not to do it for no reason, but the person was obsessed and insisted on trying, so he used The gun that came with him shot at a good believer wearing an eminent monk amulet. Unexpectedly, when the bullet exploded, he died unexpectedly, and the person wearing the eminent monk amulet was safe and sound.
