LP Koon (B.E.2466~) was ordained as a monk at the age of 21 years old at Wat Thanon Hatyai. He studied Dhamma, Sammadhi and Wichah (magic) from LP Daeng. LP Koon was very diligent and seeing that he was so keen in learning, LP Daeng brought him to meet LP Kong who was the abbot of Wat Hatyai.
LP Kong was a Phra Tudong and he brought LP Koon to Tudong. Besides Dhamma and Sammadhi, LP Kong also taught LP Koon Wichah (magic) on inserting takrut into a person's arm. After learning from LP Kong for some time, LP Koon went Tudong alone. He went as far as Laos and Cambodia, and stayed in the deep forests for many years.
LP Koon returned to Thailand after more than 10 years of Tudong, and resides at Wat Banrai. The first time when he came to Wat Banrai, the temple was in bad condition. LP Koon seeing this, determined to re-built the temple. He approached the abbot of the temple at that time, and asked him for his help. The abbot told him that the temple did not have much fund and asked LP Koon how much money he needed to re-built the temple. LP Koon replied that he needed 3 to 4 millions bahts. When the abbot heard that, he said that he had no ability to help. LP Koon then asked the villagers and his lay disciples to source for fund. Many people came forward and helped. The total fund collected was almost 2 millions bahts and Wat Banrai was re-built.
LP Koon was gradually gaining popularity and whenever, people heard LP Koon wanted to build a temple or a school, many people would come forward to help. The devotees who go to Wat Banrai, be it rich or poor, LP Koon will meet them personally and bless them. He would specially make time for the poorer devotees, because to him, the poorer devotees need to earn a living, and thus, their time is more precious.
LP Koon chanted the most amulets in Thailand. Many temples and people would create the amulets and asked him to bless. He seldom rejected anyone whom come to him for blessings. LP Koon would personally insert the takrut under the arm of the devotees and these takruts are very well proven to protect a person from accidents, Metta and as well as Kongkrapan (immunity from weapons).
