Image of Luang Pho Kuay

Paying homage to Luang Por Kuay “A living and breathing statue of Luang Por Kuay” In the past, monks often did not like to create statues of themselves because they were afraid that their lives would be short-lived. In 1979, his disciples begged Luang Por to create a statue that was the same size as his own. Luang Por agreed. When he blessed it, he divided his spirit into the statue. At that time, Luang Por was red hot and sweaty. His body was very hot because he had to divide his spirit into the statue, which consumed Luang Por’s life energy. At that time, Luang Por was ill. After Luang Por Kuay finished making the statue, he passed away peacefully in 1979. This is the only statue that is the same size as his own in the world that Luang Por blessed. Luang Por’s body is in a glass coffin at the temple. Therefore, if you want to ask for blessings from Luang Por, you can go to the temple. #Wat Khositaram
