龙婆咪瓦曼维猜佛寺在大城府出生于佛历2454（1911年）3月4日。师傅在佛历2475 年剃度为僧，当时师傅是21岁。龙婆咪从两位泰国长久以来最伟大的大师们学到了很多学问，他们就是龙婆班Wat BangNomKho和龙婆钟Wat NaTangNok。龙婆咪的庙宇瓦曼维猜佛寺也和龙婆钟的庙宇Wat Natangnok非常的靠近，同时龙婆迷也是龙婆钟的入室弟子！

龙婆咪用了3年的时间，帮助龙婆班制造了一些著名的佛牌，接着就自己把龙婆班的魔法知识融贯自通。龙婆咪的人缘术和内观禅修的知识是很高深的。龙婆咪也从其他师傅身上学习，这包括龙婆Opasi，龙婆Cheam Wat TaKong以及龙婆KOB Wat Tamkao。在1940年，龙婆咪被任命为瓦曼维猜佛寺的主持。

龙婆咪的避险和人缘术都很强。龙婆咪的佛牌也非常的闻名，龙婆咪也有一段为人熟悉的故事。话说当年龙婆本（Long Phor Pern）门下的一位师父，帮助一名中了黑巫术的村民解降，不幸的是由于缺乏经验，导致被对方的黑巫术缠上了！龙婆本尝试了许多办法，都不能为他驱逐身上的邪气，只好带他去瓦曼维猜佛寺拜见龙婆咪。龙婆咪于是帮他举行了一场驱邪法会，在仪式完毕后，这师父也觉得人好了许多。在经过详细的检查后，确实身上的黑巫术已完全消散！这也显示了龙婆咪拥有高深的法力。只是一场简单的法事，就可把对方身上的黑巫术完全驱逐！而这件事项随后也流传出坊间，广为被当地人民称奇，而龙婆咪的名声也因此更上一层楼！

龙婆咪于佛历2543（2000年）1月26日圆寂，享年89岁高龄。

Luangta Ma Wat Tham Muang Na

Luangta Ma Wat Tham Muang Na

Short Biography of 
Venerable Acariya Varongkot Virivatharo (Luangta Ma)
Wat Phrommapanyo (Wat Tham Muang Na)

Thambon Muang Na, Amphor Chiang Dao

Chiang Mai, Thailand
Early Life
Luangta Ma's original name is Varongkot Suwannakun. He was born on November 23rd 1934 in the Noraniwat district of Sakon Nakhon, a north-eastern province of Thailand. His father's name is Wandee Suwannakun and his mother's name is Sorpar Suwannakun. His parents had three children of which Vorangkot was the second.

Ordination
Luangta Ma has been a lay disciple of Luangpu Du and practised meditation under Luang Pu's guidance for more than 20 years. When his teacher was over 70 years old, he implored Luangta Ma to ordain as a monk. Luangta Ma complied with his teacher's wish. He was ordained on Sunday, July 24th 1988 at 10:06 AM at Wat Buddhathaisawan in the Ayutthaya province. Venerable Ajahn Pathrakit (Luangpor Huan), the abbot of Wat Buddhathaisawan, was the preceptor of the ceremony. Venerable Ajahn Suangthorn Dhammanithed (nicknamed Boonsong) acted as first ordination teacher and Venerable Ajahn Pichit Kitarthorn (nicknamed Sanae) acted as the second ordination teacher.
Pilgrimage and Ascetic Practices
After Luangta Ma spent one lent in robes, he went to pay respect to Luangpor Huan and asked his permission to leave the monastery in order to go on a pilgrimage. He also took the Thirteen Austere Practices, which constitute an ascetic practice considered helpful by the Buddha for removing the defilements. Luangpor Huan gave his consent, upon which Luangta Ma went to pay respect to Luangpu Du at Wat Sakae. He arrived at night time when Luangpu Du was the only person residing at the abode at Wat Sakae. Luangpu Du gave him a sermon and wished him well. He finally added: “Wherever you stay, I will be with you. Take this amulet. If you need my assistance, just turn to the amulet.” With these words he gave him an amulet with Luangpu Du's image imprinted on it, some travel utensils, and 500 Baht in cash.
Luangpu Du told Luangta Ma to go up north, yet he did not state any reason for it. In the morning, Luangpu Du sent a monk to bring Luangta Ma a lunch box, since he knew that Luangta Ma was too busy with preparations that morning and didn't go on alms round.
After these events, Luangta Ma followed his master's advice and went north. He became a solitary wandering monk and practised Tudong (pilgrimage on foot) through northern Thailand for several years. He often lived in caves to practice meditation. He experienced  many odd and unusual occurrences during this time. One day he reached Prathat Jomjaeng which was formerly known as Prathat Jomkithi. At this place, he meditated in the open and prayed to find a secluded place suitable for solitary meditation. Miraculously, an old man appeared in the morning and told Luangta Ma about a remote cave in the forest of Muang Na. If it wasn't for the old man's story, he would moved onwards to the Four Buddha Footprints in Mae Rim.

Muang Na Cave
Luangta Ma, however, decided to follow the old man's lead. He sought the cave which the old man had told him about and -while on his way- asked Luangpu Du for guidance through serene contemplation. It wasn't long until Luangta Ma found the cave, which the locals simply called Muang Na cave. The cave was exactly as the old man had told him. When he arrived there, Luangta Ma took up mediation and contacted Luangpu Du through contemplation.
In 1990 it became known to Luangta Ma that Luangpu Du had left his physical body. He went to Ayutthaya to join the royal funeral ceremony. After the ceremony, he returned to the Muang Na. Since then Luangta Ma practised solitary meditation at the cave for more than ten years. During this time he was supported by the Thai and Shan villagers who live in the Muang Na area.
Originally, Luangta Ma set out to seek enlightenment in this life, as epitomised by the Arahat ideal. Yet, when he advanced his meditation practice, he connected to previous stores of Bodhicitta. He felt deep sympathy for all beings and prayed to stay on, rather than to pass into Nirvana, in order to help all beings in the heaven, human, animal, and hell realms.
Consequently, Luangta Ma decided to give up the solitary life in order to help others to practise. He began building a temple around the cave in Muang Na. At the same time, he started to teach the Dhamma to people who came to the temple and he instructed them in meditation practice.
In recent years, Luangta Ma was able to attract a considerable following. He is now widely recognised in Northern Thailand; he is also known for his great kindness. It is obvious to his students that Luangta Ma follows the ideal of the Bodhisattva. He teaches the Dhamma to his students, as well as meditation and amulet making in the tradition of Luangpu Du. Thus Luangta Ma continues the lineage of his great Ayutthayan master Luangpu Du.

龙达玛Wat Tham Muang Na的简介小传
龙达玛的原名是Varongkot Suwannakun。他在泰国东北东部Sakon Nakhon省的Noraniwat区出生于1934年11月23日。他父亲的名字是Wandee Suwannakun和他母亲的名字是Sorpar Suwannakun。他的父母有三个孩子，龙达玛是第二位孩子。龙达玛一直是龙婆嘟的俗家弟子，并在龙婆嘟的指导下，练习禅坐超过20年。当龙婆嘟超过70岁时，他恳求龙达玛出家为僧。龙达玛遵守他的老师的愿望。龙达玛于1988年7月24日（星期日）上午10:06在大城府省Wat Buddhathaisawan受戒。Wat Buddhataisawan的方丈尊者阿姜Pathrakit（龙婆Huan）是受戒仪式的导师。尊者阿姜Suangthorn Dhammanithed（绰号Boonsong）是第一受戒师和尊者阿姜Pichit Kitarthorn（绰号Sanae）担任第二受戒师。

过了一段时期，龙达玛向龙婆Huan请求，允许他离开寺庙去的朝圣。龙婆Huan给了他的同意，龙达玛就去拜见龙婆嘟Wat Sakae。他去到已经是晚上的时间，龙婆嘟是唯一在庙里驻守的人。 龙婆嘟给他讲道，并祝他好运。他最后补充道：“无论你到哪里，我会与你同在。拿着这个护身符。如果你需要我的帮助，就使用这个护身符。”龙婆嘟给了龙达玛这个护身符，一些旅行用具，以及500泰铢的现金。
龙婆嘟告诉龙达玛北上，但他没有说明任何原因。龙婆嘟在早晨命一个和尚为龙达玛送来一个饭盒，因为他知道龙达玛正忙着准备，早上并没有去化缘。
这些事件之后，龙达玛跟着龙婆嘟的意见并北上。几年来他在泰国北部一个人孤独的游走以及实行Tudong（赤脚朝圣）。他经常住在山洞里练习坐禅。在此期间，他经历了很多奇怪和不寻常的事件。有一天，他到达Prathat Jomjaeng，前名为Prathat Jomkithi。在这个地方，他开始坐禅和祈祷，找到一个适合坐禅的僻静地方。不可思议的是，一位老人在早晨出现和告诉龙达玛，远方Muang Na的森林有一个洞穴。
龙达玛决定遵循老人的指引。他根据老人的告知寻找洞穴，也通过沉思默想向龙婆嘟请示。过了不久，龙达玛就发现了洞穴，当地人简称为孟娜洞穴（Muang Na Cave）。这个洞穴与老人诉说的一模一样。当他到达那里的时候，龙达玛就坐禅告知龙婆嘟。
1990年龙达玛得知龙婆嘟圆寂了。他到大城府参加皇家葬礼仪式。仪式结束后，他回到孟娜穴。从那时起龙达玛在洞穴里孤独的练习坐禅十余年的时间。在这段时间内师傅就是由附近的村民支持的。
本来，龙达玛是想修练到阿罗汉境界。然而，当他提升他的坐禅练习，他对众生感到深深的同情，并祈求可以留下来，以帮助所有的人，人类，动物，天堂以及地狱领域。
因此，龙达玛决定放弃孤独的生活，以帮助他人修练。他开始在孟娜洞穴的周围建造一座寺庙。与此同时，他开始教去庙里的人关于佛法，他指示他们打坐修炼。
近年来，龙达玛在泰国北部被广泛认可，他的仁慈也被大家认同。他的学生很明显的感受到龙达玛是为菩提心作想的。他教导他的学生佛法，坐禅以及依据龙婆嘟的传统制造护身符。因此，龙达玛继承了龙婆嘟的伟大智慧。

Luang Phor Kasem Kemagoh

Luang Por Kasem was one of the legendary famous monk in Thailand Temple who had passed away in BE2538 (1995) at the age of 83 years old.

He came into this world on Novemeber 28 in the year BE2455 on Wednesday at Jangwat Lampang (descendants of Lampany's King of Lanna Period). In the year BE2468 (1925) when his uncle had passed away, LP Kasem became a novice monk to study Pali Language in Bangkok, Wat Setuwan and returned to Lampang for indepth study of Pali at Wat Seelom and Wat Bunyawaht.

He was outstanding in his studies and got first in his Pali examinatuon at Wat Setuwan in BE2476. Reaching the age of 21, he was ordained as a monk in Wat Bunyeun and his preceptor was Tahn Jow Koon Tammajindah. His ordained name was Kemagoh Pikkhu.

In Changmai, he met Luang Phor Krubah Gaen who was a famous forest monk and LP Kasem studied under him as a disciple. They went to Tudong in the remote forest to practise dhamma and sammadhdti.

He practised hard in dhamma and sammadhdti. He wanted to perfect his practise to attain the highest sammahdti, so he went to the cementry in the burial ground watching dead corpse being burnt to ashes under the hot sun or rain. Regardless whether it was under the hot sun or rain, he would simply sat quietly and watch.

He had accomplished without food for as long as 49 days and sat in sammahdti for 3 months without shelter under hot sun and rain without complain.

LP Kasem only bathed once a year without any stench or foul odour from his body though perspiration pouring during hot sunny day. What surprise most was he never suffered mosquito bite without shelter at the cementry.

LP Kasem was not keen of making amulets as he was devoted to practise dhamma and sammadhti in the remote forest. When people approached him kindly for help and protection as soldiers in Lampang were sent to Cambodian or Burmese border to fight. They received bamboo leaves with protective spell written and it saved many lives and soon LP Kasem became famous for making protective amulets.

Luang Por Kasem did not carry anything with him. In his possession was just the alms bowl and his robe he worn during the practise of sammadhdti without any footwear. LP Kasem mentioned that as a forest monk there was no requirement of having any possessions. Just a robe to cover his body would be sufficient. Many a times, layman gave him things but he simply gave them to other monks.

LP Kasem who a monk who had no desire of comfort as even when he was sleeping, he did not use any pillow as that was considered as luxury. Luang Por Kasem simply would sleep with his body in full prostrate position similar to his sammahdti practise spot. He could had all the luxuries in life for being the descendent of royal family in Lampang but he asked for nothing in life, just finding the truth in life.

Luang Phor Kasem passed away on Jan 15, 2539 (7:42 pm) at the Lampang hospital. He was 84. A memorial and mausoleum were built at the area by the cemetery and his dead body was placed in a glass coffin for reasons that make yet many local people upset. However he had reputedly never wished to be burned.

Long Phor Viriyang Sirintharo Wat Dhammamongkol

LP Waen Sujinno Wat DoiMaePang

Luang Pho Waen was born on 16 February 1883 (BE 2431) in Tambon Na Pong, Mueang District of Loei, Northeast (Isan) of Thailand to a blacksmith's family. He was named Yarn and had one elder sister. He ordained as a novice in 1892 at Wat Bodhi Chai in Na Pong at the age of nine to fulfill the wish of his mother when she died while he was five years old. At the age of 13, he became a Naen (novice monk) at Wat Poh Chai, Loei province. He studied with a number of teachers and later ordained as a monk at a temple in Hua Taparn District of Ubon Ratchathani at the age of 21.

As a novice monk, he studied the Dharma and Pali, even at that young age he showed exceptional ability. He eventually went Thudong (forest monk) with his teacher, Ajahn Wuhan, travelling from Loei to Ubon Ratchathani, where he remained to learn Dhamma from another teacher, Ajahn Sing.
During his Thudong, he met many disciples of Ajahn Mun whom he had wanted to further his studies under. Luang Pho Waen met Ajahn Mun in BE 2462 (at the age of 31) at Bahn Kor forest, Udon Thani province. Luang Por Mun Bhuridatta in Udon Thani who taught him the pursuance of a secluded life and the practice of meditation and Dhamma in the jungles. Subsequently Luang Pho Waen travelled very widely in the Northeast of Thailand in search of isolated places where he could meditate. His travelling also took him to Bangkok where he met Chao Khun Phra Upali Gunupamacariya of Wat Bowonniwet in 1921 with whom Luang Pho Waen spent several years studying and practising the Dhamma. Later Chao Khun Phra Upali took him to Wat Chedi Luang in Chiang Mai where Luang Pho Waen decided to change from the Maha-Nikaya sect of Buddhism to the stricter Dhammayut sect.
Later he went Thudong again with Ajahn Dteu. Luang Pho Waen, endured many difficulties during his Thudong, he encountered ghosts, wild animals and other dangers but was never afraid despite warnings from local villagers. It was his wish to experience and learn from everything.
Luang Pho Waen spent most of his monkhood as a forest monk, travelling from one province to another on foot, climbing hills, crossing rivers and deep forests. He had also went as far as Laos, Cambodia, Burma and even Vietnam on Thudong. At BE 2470, age 39, Luang Pho Waen arrived in Lampang.
He met another disciple of Ajahn Mun called Ajahn Keow. He was told that Ajahn Mun was in Chiang Mai. Luang Pho Waen quickly Thudong to Chiang Mai to look for Ajahn Mun. Finally he met Ajahn Mun and Ajahn Dteu at Wat Chedi Luang. Ajahn Mun officially accepted Luang Pho Waen as his disciple. He studied Dhamma at Wat Chedi Luang.
After Ajahn Mun left Wat Chedi Luang for Thudong, Luang Pho Waen also went Thudong in Chiang Mai. He stayed at Wat Huainumrin in Chiang Mai Province for 10 years. During his long stay in Wat Huainumrin, he stayed most of his time in forests and only returning to the temple during the rainy seasons (Khao Phansa).
Luang Pho Waen travelled extensively by foot through jungles and across mountains and even ventured to Burma and India where he paid homage to several historic Buddhist sites. However, in 1955 news of a foot injury sustained during his stay in seclusion of Wat Paa Ban Pong in Mae Tang District, Chiang Mai, reached Phra Ajahn Noo Suchitto of Wat Doi Mae Pang who later arranged for Luang Pho Waen to stay in Wat Doi Mae Pang permanently. He resided in Wat Doi Mae Pang until his passing away.
Luang Pho Waen entered Maharaj Hospital on 15 April 1985 when he was found unable to eat or move and was operated on 4 June 1985 in order to feed him through a tube which was inserted into his stomach. However, complications developed and Phra Ajahn Noo, the abbot of Wat Doi Mae Pang, requested doctors not to perform any more operations as he wanted Luang Pho Waen to rest peacefully. His request was accepted by doctors and the Chiang Mai Governor, Mr. Chaiya Punsiriwong.
On 2 July 1985 at 9:54 pm, Luang Pho Waen finally died at the age of 102 years and 5 months after having been in the monkhood for almost 90 years. He was given a royal-sponsored bathing ceremony at Sala Ang Klaew in Chiang Mai University which was attended by the King and Queen of Thailand as well as the general public. His remains were cremated at a Royal Funeral on 16 January 1986.

龙婆卡贤

泰国北部南帮府，有一个小市镇称为塔高望，在这个小市镇中有一户有钱人家，主人名叫召奴，女主人名叫麻钟，他们夫妇俩可说是塔高望的大好人．他们乐善好施，时常帮助有需要的贫苦大众。因此在塔高望地区相当的受人尊敬。佛历2455年11月28日，星期三这家的女主人诞下了一名男婴，他便是日后成为南帮府无人不知的一代高僧─龙婆卡贤。龙婆卡贤大师小时在南帮的一间学校，受过五年的教育，由于从小对于佛理发生浓厚的兴趣，便在佛历2468年到佛庙做了七天的小沙弥，当时年仅13岁，由于这七天的寺庙生活，使龙婆卡贤大师立志要出家为僧，深人的研究佛理。于是终于在两年后请准双亲，即佛历2470年，在越满友佛寺出家为小沙弥。当龙婆卡贤大师满21岁时，即佛历2475年正式出家为僧，由当时南帮地区最德高望重的高僧召坤柏潭真他拿王大师主持剃度仪式，正式成为黄衣僧人。
佛寺爆炸．龙婆卡贤大师安然无恙。
佛历2524年8月10日，下午4时，天刚下过雨。在南帮龙婆卡贤大师的住处，来了四位女信徒，这四位女信徒在拜会了龙婆卡贤大师后，龙婆卡贤大师便叫寺庙助手阿顺带这四位施主到大殿参拜。当这四位施主到大殿拜后，便对阿顺说，他们有一样东西妥交给龙婆卡贤大师，麻烦阿顺带她们到大师的念经房亲手交给他。阿顺听后便带着这四位女施主到念经房去找龙婆卡贤大师，接着阿顺便回到大殿收拾。过了不久，当阿顺再回到念经房找龙婆卡贤大师时，那四位女施主已不知去向了。当时那四位女施王交给龙婆卡贤大师的那一盒东西，安放在距离他们两公尺之外的一张桌子上。忽然问一声巨响，从念经房里传出，佛寺的和尚们都被这一声巨响吓着，纷纷涌到念经房看个究竟。当他们来到念经房后见到念经房被炸弹炸掉一半，心想龙婆卡贤大师困在里面，一定是凶多吉少。但是他们的顾虑是多余的，只见龙婆卡贤大师和阿顺安然无恙的从废垆中走出来。这就足见，龙婆卡贤大师的修为是何等的高超，在多危难时，都能化险为夷平安无事。
龙婆卡贤大师在成为黄衣僧人后，并没有留在佛寺中，而是行脚到各处寻访名师，学习佛法。在四年的时间里，龙婆卡贤大师曾到很多地方与寺庙，包括：越时郎佛寺、越文瓦梯佛寺、越清莱及越财弯佛寺修习佛法以及巴利文，并于佛历2479年，回到超文瓦梯伟汉佛寺居住，一住就住了很多年。在这几年中，龙婆卡贤大师不断的研究佛理，使他的修为更进一步，因此在佛历2485年受到僧王的赏识，被委任为越文恩的主持。直到2492年，龙婆卡贤大师决定离开寺庙，所以写了辞职书，但辞职信被退回，于是只好再当了六年的住持。因为大师希望再四处学习佛法，六年间大师不断地寻找适合的人选来接任。直到在一个守夏节的前一天，大师留信离开，信内说道：很多事情已经交代好了，每样事情都已经教导大家了，不需要有他，他已经离开，走往未来的修行之路走，你们也不必去找我，因为我已经舍下住持一职，我不会再回来了。但没想到百姓聚集了近500人，外出四处寻找，后来在某间外地寺庙发现龙婆卡贤大师正在禅坐。原来龙婆卡贤大师为了要实践最高的禅定修行，他在埋葬尸体的地方打坐并观看尸体燃烧，不论在炎热的太阳下或在雷雨之下，大师都一直平静地打坐并看着一具一具烧成灰的尸体。龙婆卡贤大师在那里，足足逗留了三个月，不论好天下雨，都是一直在那里禅定打坐。那时正好是寒冷的季节，大师就穿着一件被雨水湿透的僧袍，任由寒风吹在身上，但大师都平静地坐着禅修，不曾抱怨一句，也没请求过任何的东西，曾经试过一次，在修行的过程间，更是49天没有进食。当时百姓们又哭又跪，求龙婆卡贤大师返回寺庙住持，大师还是继续禅定不受影响。民众还将大师的生母请来游说，可母亲也改变不了龙婆卡贤四处修行的决心。母亲不放心他，于是将庞大家产都分给了百姓，自己仅留了一个部份，在龙婆卡贤修行的山盖了一个住所，打算可以就近照顾龙婆卡贤。后来受不了高山气候生了重病，村民请医师来诊治，还是不见起色，母亲知道时日无多，叫了一位小和尚来，给了小和尚那时候的21泰銖，并交代小和尚，若自己临终前，一定要请龙婆卡贤来，而小和尚也照做，请了龙婆卡贤来。当龙婆卡贤为母亲颂经时，母亲身体上方聚集了好大一群蜜蜂，盘旋了几圈之后蜜蜂散去，母亲也断气了，大师也红了眼眶。后来村民们凑了当时的700泰銖，帮她盖了一个坟墓，而龙婆卡贤也离开了此地，往修行之路而行，弘扬佛法及照顾百姓。最后，来到他日后寺庙的所在地，当时那边还是个坟墓，现在名为Wat Susanthailak。龙婆卡贤在生时，每天都很多人去找他，而他总是说很少，很多时候则保持沉默。龙婆卡贤说：“如果跟他们说太多的话，我就没时间修行了。有一次，有个小偷三更半夜来到龙婆卡贤的寺院，打算要偷大师的蚊帐。然后他花了很大的劲也还没把绑着蚊帐的绳子剪断。这时龙婆卡贤听到声音，就从禅定中出来，并出手帮小偷剪。剪完之后，双手把蚊帐奉上，而且还有“特别赠品”，那就是棉被与枕头。当小偷接过棉被之后，龙婆卡贤还拍拍他的肩膀，吩咐他把米粮也拿去，要快点离开，不然就会被其他人发现。龙婆卡贤这样的举动，让这小偷都不像小偷了。龙婆卡贤的心就是如此的清净无一物，不执着任何的东西。自从发生了这件事，龙婆卡贤就不再用蚊帐、棉被与枕头了。他以此来反省说：“这可能不是小偷啊，说不定是天神来试验我的心，来给机会我修行。”奇怪的是，即使龙婆卡贤没用蚊帐，也没有用香料，但就算在墓地里也未曾遭受蚊子叮咬过一口。更加惊奇的是，龙婆卡贤每年只沐浴一次，但是从他身上从没发出肮脏的气味，甚至在烈日下都没流过一滴汗水。而在2514年开始，更是不再洗澡（那年59岁，直到他84岁圆寂）。在泰国这么炎热的天气里，往往都会汗流夹背，但说来奇怪，龙婆卡贤大师在大热天里念经，都不曾流过汗，而且在他的身上还会发出一种味道很特别的香味，使人啧啧称奇。
龙婆卡贤是个少欲知足的出家人，出家之后，就是一心朝向修行的道路。他的刻苦修行以及慈悲化世，让很多人对大师产生很大的信心。龙婆卡贤也吃得很少，三天才吃一餐，而且还是馊饭！更让人敬佩的是，龙婆卡贤未曾坐过任何交通工具，只靠一双脚行坐。而身上唯一的财产就是化缘的钵，单薄的僧袍以及一块人骨（应该是修行用的，修白骨观），甚至连一双鞋也没有，一直过着苦行的生活。龙婆卡贤大师在苦行间从没要求过任何东西，对自己苦行的生活很满意，并将在外化缘得到的东西，一一分给其他僧人。大师也不使用过枕头睡觉，因为对大师而言，枕头是奢侈的东西，只需要能够容立身体的地方就很满足了，并且大师睡觉及禅修都是在同一个地方。或许有人会觉得很奇怪，住在坟墓既有怪味又恐怖（泰国以前的坟墓是乱葬岗，或是放在一旁，就起火燃烧，有时烧不完，就会发臭，而在烧的过程中，也是会有股异味的）。但是对于像龙婆卡贤这样的修行人而言，坟场确实是最好的道场。 大师的一生，大部分时间就是住在坟场中，龙婆卡贤喜欢那儿的幽静，反而不喜欢人多的地方。有时候，当他们拿尸体来烧，龙婆卡贤就坐在一旁打坐，当尸体被火燃烧时，大师就坐在那儿思考生命的意义以及观察尸体的变化。就这样一直看到尸体被烧尽成灰，而龙婆卡贤的烦恼也一样被烧尽了。由于龙婆卡贤是南邦府的皇族后裔，拥有皇室血统，与生俱来就是有极高福报的高僧，但大师放弃了贵族的身份，坚定不移地实践学习佛法及禅定。大师每天都非常坚定过着苦行的生活，从没在生活中要求过什么。虽然大师可以享受贵族的生活，但还是希望选择成为苦行僧。龙婆卡贤除了是一位爱民且清廉的好高僧，僧侣生涯之中也有着许多的奇妙故事让后世流传，高僧外表看起来很虚弱，实际上还蛮健康的，不过人总会老去，龙婆卡贤还是在2539年1月15日的圆寂了，享年84岁。
