CKN -the blesser of the Nangkwak- ordained his monkhood in B.E.2468 and was an important disciple of Somdej Phra PhutDhaKosaJahn (Charoen).
CKN was a life-long vegetarian with only one meal a day. He practiced advanced Dhamma and never stepped out of the temple even the war time until he passed away in early B.E.2514.
During WWII Bangkok was severely bombed by the Allies. HuaLamPhong rail-way station, just a few Kms from Wat Dhepsirin temple, was a main target of bombing by the Allied led by the US. Almost all monks in the temple fled away. But CKN still stayed there. Many bombs missed the target while some plunged into the temple, but the bombs never exploded !!
