Luang Pu Thuat was born on March 3, 1582 at Ban Suan Chan, Amphoe Satingphra, Songkhla. His birthname was Pu. The story goes that during his labor, a miracle of powerfully roaring thunderstruck there was as if to suggest that there came the birth of a new saint. Luang Pu Thuat became a revered Buddhist monk in Krung Sri Ayutthaya period. According to the belief of Luang Pu Thuat's followers, amulets created in his image hold a great protective power to the amulet owners.
