Born 31 Jul BE 2453 (1910) • Passed 25 May BE 2535 (1992) • Abbot of Wat Poh Nimit from BE 2493 (1950)
Creator of the First Edition Kun Phaen (with Guman Thong) • Consecrated BE 2495 (1952)
EN — Overview. In the early 1950s, LP Toon of Wat Poh Nimit prepared a Kun Phaen series carrying the image and spirit-veneration of Guman Thong. Planned in BE 2494 (1951) and completed in BE 2495 (1952), the batch wove together rare powders, cemetery earth, and fragments from older Kun Phaen traditions. Rotated through blessings by renowned masters and then kept in the abbot’s kuti for continued empowerment, these pieces became a quiet benchmark for collectors seeking both lineage craft and devotional depth.
