Luang Pu Saeng Yanwaro
Recently there was a big hoo-ha revolving the revered 98 year old monk Luang Pu Saeng Yanwaro, who is also known as the oldest living disciple of Luang Pu Mun as well as a highly attained monk.
A group of reporters led by a celebrity shaman charged up the temple to confront Luang Pu Saeng accusing him of harassing a woman and trying to make him admit to it.
Later on, it was revealed that the video was staged and many devotees and Buddhists became very displeased with the way the group treated Luang Pu Saeng, who is now suffering from dementia and almost 100 years old.
This incident greatly affected many people but it came with a very important lesson – not to jump to conclusions too early based on what we read or hear.
Several years ago on July 2 2562, someone offered Luang Pu Saeng the portrait of Luang Pu Doo Prompanyo.
Luang Pu Saeng looked at the photo, and instructed his devotees:
“Put this at an appropriate place.
Baramee [Parami] is very great.
[LP Doo is] very close to enlightenment already.”
