Luang Pho Samrit was born in the year of the pig, on Monday, the 1/7/2466 (1923), in the Ban Por Phan Tambon Nachueak Changwat Maha Sarakam, Isaan, north-east Thailand.
He was second from seven children of the married couples Mr.Pa and Mrs.Sie Khun Phan. His parents were farmers, so that he already had to help in earliest childhood in the agriculture and was responsible for his younger brothers and sisters.
Nevertheless, he found time to visit the elementary school and to complete this successfully. This induced his parents to send him on the high school "Rong Rian Sirivithayakorn" in the province of Nakhon Ratchasima which he completed with the 12th class.
In the year B.E.2486 (1943), during the 2nd world war, he joined the royal Thai army and served the kingdom against the Japanese invaders. After the end of the war, in 1945, he quitted the military service and returned to his parents to help them on the rice fields.
3 years later Luang Pho Samrit changed abruptly because of the death of his 6-year-old sister. A water buffalo of the family had trotted on the fields of the neighbour. When he saw this, he feared that the buffalo would trample the young rice plants and cast a hammer at him. Nevertheless, the hammer missed the buffalo and hit,instead, his sister upon the breast. His sister was so seriously injured that she still passed away on site before medical help arrived.
The death of his beloved sister shocked Luang Pho Samrit so much that he started to think about the sense of the life and the destiny. In his deep mourning he found no answer to "the Why".
During the 9-day obsequies in the temple he listened to the discourses and recitations of the monks for the first time consciously and found solace in the words of Buddha. It helped him to get over the aftermath.
He started to devote himself to the Dharma apprenticeships and made the decision to walk on the path of Buddha for the rest of his life.
In the year of the bull, on Tuesday, the 3/22/2492 (1949), he ordained in Wat Nonglao, Tambon Nachueak, Amphoer Nachueak, Changwat Nakhon Ratchasima, to the monk (Buat Phra).
His ordination fathers were Phra Khru Yuntra Sri Tolkhun, abbot of Wat Tong Noppa Khun in Mahasarakam, Luang Pho Dum, abbot of Wat Nonglao in Mahasarakam and the venerable Phra Ajahn Rod, the second abbot of Wat Nong Kung in Mahasarakam.
Luang Pho Dum was a great and endowed magician who came from Cambodia where he already belonged to the great masters of the Visha Khameen. He was a pupil of Phra Somdej Luen who was very famous at that time in Yampasak, Laos.
Luang Pho Dum handed over all his knowledge to the venerable Luang Pho Samrit. After four years Luang Pho Samrit acquired his Nak Tham Aek certificate and began 4 years lasting wanderings through the Isaan, Laos and Cambodia.
Often he meditated in old Khmer temples of the province of Buriram. During the meditation ghosts, lost souls and toxic mystic snakes appeared to him over and over again, however, he was never afraid. He started to pray for the lost souls and ghosts and to hold ceremonies, so that these would be able to find peace of mind and he hoped that these would reincarnate once in a better life.
During his wanderings he also visited the venerable Luang Phu Sorn, abbot of the Soeng Sang in Nakhon Ratchasima. This taught him the magic and production of protective amulets against attacks with and without weapons. These prevent that the wearer of the amulet is injured in the fight or even is killed.
During his years of travel Luang Pho Samrit was occupied and absorbed so much in learning of magic knowledge that he had no contact with the outside world or his family what led to the fact that these believed, he would have died in any wood during his wanderings.
Then Luang Pho Samrit saw the venerable Luang Pho Dee, abbot of Wat Tai Vientian in Vientian, Laos to learn the magic knowledge about the Lek Lais from him. Luang Pho Dee taught the venerable Luang Pho Samrit to use the secrets and the strength of the Lek Lais. Later Luang Pho Samrit saw two other monks in Laos and in Cambodia to learn also from these how to control and to use the power and forces of the Lek Lais.
In the middle of the year B.E. 2500 (1957) he came to the province of Kanchanaburi where he found a cave with a big Lek Lai occurence on Monday, the 6/24/2500. The cave bore the name Tham Fad. On this day Wat Thamfad was "born". Then, in December B.E. 2505 Wat Thamfad was officially opened.
In the immediate vicinity there are another two other caves, the Tham Rasmee and the Tham Suea cave. The latter has become known by Wat Tham Suea (the tigers temple) also worldwide.
The venerable Luang Pho Samrit passed away in the year of the rat, on Sunday, the 2/4/2539 (1996), at the age of 73 years and 47 Phansa as a monk.
Luang Pho Samrit rests in a glass coffin in Wat Thamfad, thus as he would only sleep and not would have passed away.
Luang Pho Samrit amulets are desired very much and hard to get. They are valid as especially effective, protecting and luck-giving.
