Krom Phra Somthamonphan

He wrote that

Somdej Phutthachan To

Has built many temples, each temple "He likes to build strange and big things"

(Explanation of the amulet

Big Buddha from the reclining Buddha at Wat Satue

Ayutthaya

Bangkok

We seem to know each other quite well.

As for the “strange things”, there are two strange pagodas at Wat Lakham Temple, Ban Chang Lo Sub-district, Thon Buri, behind the ubosot.

“Strange things” Later, the temple turned away...near my new dormitory.

Original Wat Intharawiharn

Chao Phrakhun built a vihara, 3 wa wide and 5 wa long, with a brick wall and a thatched roof.

Inside the viharn, a Buddha image is enshrined, 2 cubit wide across the lap, sitting facing the eastern wall, 2 cubit distance apart.

No one knows the intent, why Somdej built the sanctuary of the Buddha image...

in the neighborhood

Later, when the authorities cut Samsen Road through Bang Khun Phrom

The Wiharn Phra turned away, was demolished without a word.

Where is the monk turning away from you?

Leave a puzzle to understand each other.

The reason why Chao Prathan built a temple in the neighborhood of people

He deliberately warned people in this day and age to turn their backs to the temple.

turn away from religion

This is another ingenious idea of ​​Somdej Buddhacarnto.

The puzzle of the sleeping pagoda

And the riddle of the turning away Buddha image written by "Triyampawai" must be considered old information.

Reclining Chedi of Wat Lak Tham, which is dilapidated and left no remains

Will it be restored or not?

I don't have any new information yet.

But there is new information

A story about turning away from monks

From the history of Wat Intharawiharn on the topic of the Buddha statue in the posture of meditation

this Buddha

Does not specify metal texture or stucco texture

It is a amulet for the birthday of Somdej Phutthachan Toh, lap width 1 cubit 9 inches (newly built base).

The information of the temple is on the back of the Buddha image.

Originally located in the viharn, 3 wa wide and 5 wa long, the wall was made of bricks and the thatched roof turned his face to the east wall.

Inside the pagoda

This set of information has been added...Sir Chaopracha

Built with a sermon hall

in the neighborhood of Laos

when the official cuts Samsen Road

therefore split the temple into two temples

Wat Intharawihan

(Wat Bang Khun Phrom Nok) and Wat Mai Amatarot

(Wat Bang Khun Phrom Nai)

There is a record that Mr. Sapmeemutha and Mr. Saeng Chantanakorn were the driving force in leading the villagers to bring the monks to turn away in a rowing boat along the canal next to Wat Iam Woranut.

(In those days, there was still a canal) to enter Wat Intharawihan.

Brought up and enshrined in the cloister behind Luang Pho To, on the south side, in 1972, the cloister was dismantled, so he was brought to Somdet Phutthachan Toh Hall.

In front of the right side of Luang Pho To
