Kasem Khemako monk history

Luang Phor Kasem Khemako was born on November 28, 1912 in Lampang north of Thailand. He was the son of “Chao Noi Noo Na Lampang”

and “Chao Mae Bua jhon Na Lampang”

Luang Phor Kasem Khemako descended from the royal lineage of the rulers of Lampang.

Although Luang Phor Kasem was of royal lineage from the rulers of Lampang, he showed no interest in royal privilege or inheritance, but was instead devoted to ordination and the study of Buddhism.

While he was a monk, he was continually promoted to higher positions within the Sangha. However, he had no interest in rank or title, preferring a secluded and solitary life devoted to meditation.

Therefore, he left the monastery and went to live in a cremation ground.

However, the faithful disciples of Luang Pho Kasem still followed him and the cremation site was developed over time, eventually becoming what is we now known as the “Susan Trairak” >> location : https://share.google/k66IscapGyQ1WxgfR

Kasem Khemako passed away on January 15, 1996, and his body did not decompose (without use formalin), which became widely reported in the news at the time.
