Default The Unofficial biography of Ajaan Loy (A powerful Singapore Ajaan)

This is the incomplete and unofficial biography of Ajaan Loy, abbot of Wat Changsan in Simpang Bedok. (It is incomplete because there is an understanding between Ajaan Loy and me that the biography I have written for him should stop here. Ajaan Loy may wish to let another person write his biography and complete it) (Due to political sensitivity, this is the censored version of his incomplete and unofficial biography):

When Ajaan Loy was a teenager, he wasn't Buddhist. In those days, Singapore dominant ideology among Chinese Singaporeans was very different from what it is today.

I asked him:"What then changed your mind?"

He then related a story of long ago.......

His younger brother came home after a swim in the sea feeling very sick. Rashes appeared all over his body.

His family sent him to see many doctors (village medicine men or traditional Chinese medicine doctors), but none could cure him. The doctors recommended he go see the temple mediums.

So his family took his younger brother to see the temple mediums. But none of them could summon any spirit or deity to their body to give advice!

So, dejected, with no solution found, they went home.

When they went home, suddenly, his younger brother spoke in a mixture of Thai, Malay and Hokkien.

From his younger brother's mouth came out the words that he is Luang Phor Thuad, a Thai monk who lived in Thailand 300 years ago. He revealed that Mr Loy's younger brother had been targetted by a sea spirit, and the sea spirit wanted his younger brother's life. He has come into the body of Mr Loy's younger brother because he wanted his younger brother to become a monk and be his disciple.

This scene was witnessed by a large crowd, many of whom are still alive today (In those days, they lived in a village or Kampong, so it was a closely-knit community where if something interesting happens, virtually the whole village would crowd around to gather).

Mr Loy's grandmother spoke to LP Thuad and told him that.....
