Whilst they were with Luang Por he could converse with them....sometimes the boys attending him at his guti caught sight of young girls climbing the stairs to his room and became worried that his reputation would be spoiled...sometimes they heard singing or girlish laughter.<br />Luang Por had the ability to chant a special mantra which would 'shorten a journey'...and the two makaiphon used their powers to do similar one time. They also left him to return home...for a day and night...and returned after seven years of our time.fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440984467014856406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14548193.post-57949179398243175012009-07-17T13:20:32.697+08:002009-07-17T13:20:32.697+08:00The story in Wayne's blog about when Luang Por...The story in Wayne's blog about when Luang Por took them to a visit to a lay follower's home, and many villagers and some monks there listened to them singing for some time, enchanted by their heavenly sound. They agreed to allow the head monk there to converse with them, although nobody else but Luang por could hear them. He wanted to be able to see them but they refused...when he got annoyed and asked why they allowed Luang por to see them they replied that Luang por was free of all the defilements (Arahant)...but the monk was not, and was still not even very good at keeping his monks rules and precepts.... so they knew that if they allowed ordinary beings to see them, then lust would arise and cause those persons to create bad karma for themselves.fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440984467014856406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14548193.post-61986797431325854652009-07-14T00:10:28.840+08:002009-07-14T00:10:28.840+08:00Yes I only managed to learn some basic Thai, which...Yes I only managed to learn some basic Thai, which is unfortunately not enough to read Thai books.
