Luang Pu Waen, Faith in Miracles
.
.
Luang Pu Waen Sujino of Wat Doi Mae Pang, Chiang Mai, is a forest monk who is ascetic and humble, an ariya monk who has diligently practiced ascetic practices for a long time. His fellow monks who accompanied him on his ascetic journey were Luang Pu Tue, two Vipassana masters and disciples of the same parents, teachers, and Ajahn Mun, who are like Dharma commanders leading their disciples to escape this cycle of rebirth. It is said that Luang Pu Waen and Luang Pu Tue traveled the longest among all the ascetic monks. If you add up the time they spent on ascetic journeys, it is approximately 50 years, which is equivalent to half their monastic lives. The result of this long journey has resulted in the formation of many disciples who are devoted to Luang Pu Tue, scattered both domestically and internationally.
.
Because Luang Pu Waen had been on a pilgrimage for 50 years, little was known about him. Newspaper reports in 2516 included his biography and miraculous tales. In the book "Phra That Patiharn" (The Miracle of Relics) published by Lokthip magazine, Luang Pho Ruesi of Wat Tha Sung in Uthai Thani Province told the story of Luang Pu Waen, which reads in part...
.
"Luang Por Ruesi recounted that an air force pilot flew his plane over Wat Doi Mae Pang. The pilot was so shocked that his ears and eyes bulged out because he saw an old monk sitting on a cloud, blocking his flight path. He had to quickly steer the plane away, his eyes wide open. On the return flight, he saw the same old monk sitting on the cloud again.
When the plane landed on the field, the pilot went to pay respects to the Chiang Mai abbot and asked him if there were any monks in Chiang Mai who had special miracles. The provincial abbot said that he had seen one, Luang Pu Waen of Wat Doi Mae Pang, or Doi Si Muang (pang in the northern dialect means purple).

In order to see for himself, the pilot traveled to the temple. Upon meeting him, he stared in amazement. He immediately recognized this old monk as the one he had seen on the clouds while flying over Doi Mae Pang. He pushed through the crowds and went to pay homage at the feet of Luang Pu Waen with the utmost reverence. Tears flowed, he was overwhelmed with joy and emotion that he had the good fortune to have met the real Luang Pu Waen.
.
Since then, devotees from all over have flocked to Doi Mae Pang. Luang Pu Waen is highly revered, with even King Rama IX visiting him on numerous occasions. Many of his sacred objects have been created for him by his disciples, including soldiers, government officials, and the general public.

Luang Pu Waen coin, first edition, 2513
Luang Pu Waen was ordained at the age of 20 and diligently practiced meditation, adhering to the ascetic practices as his main goal, following the teachings of his great teacher, Luang Pu Mun, for 50 years. It wasn't until 2513 that the public first learned of him and created the first amulet, Luang Pu Waen, at the age of 83 and in his 63rd year of monkhood. True gold will always remain true, no matter how much time has passed. This noble monk, endowed with wisdom and meditation, continues to shine with the light of Dhamma, bringing joy to the public at all times, and will maintain his sacred faith for a very long time.
