Luang Phoo Dun Wat Buraparam Surin




Luang Phoo Dun Wat Buraparam Surin. Born on 4th October BE2431 (Year 1888). Started his monkhood on BE2453 at the age of 22. LP Sing & LP Dun were the first two disciples of LP Mun. After wandering for 19 years through the forests and mountains of Thailand and Cambodia, LP Dun received an order from his ecclesiastical superiors to head a combined study and practice monastery in Surin. It was thus that he took over the abbotship of Wat Buraparam, in the middle of the town, in 1934. There he remained until his death on 30th October 1983 at the age of 96.
