August 15, 8th Anniversary of the Passing of Mother Jandi Lohitdee

Mother Jandi, Sister of Luangta

On this occasion, we remember the goodness of Mother Jandi Lohitdee, who served as an exemplary figure for nuns and lay practitioners at Wat Pa Baan Tad. Her virtuous deeds are immeasurable and unmatched by anyone.

After Luangta Phra Mahabua Yan Sampanno ordained and left home for several years, he returned after the passing of Mr. Thongdee Lohitdee. By chance, Luangta met Mother Jandi, although he did not recognize her. Luangta recounted the following incident:

Not Recognizing My Sister

 Because I had been away from home for so long, there was a time while I was practicing meditation that I returned home to make merit for my father. At that time, there were no vehicles. While walking back from Udon Thani, I met a young girl about 16 or 17 years old. As soon as she saw me, she approached and bowed down to me. I recounted this moment as follows:

"...She passed by and saw me, then she sat down and bowed. 'Hey! Who is this girl? She seems to understand the precepts and Dhamma reasonably well.' Then I asked, 'Where are you from?' 'From Ban Tad.' 'And where are you going?' 'Going to Udon.' 'Which house do you live in?' I asked again, 'From Ban Tad.' She was a bit shy when I asked where she lived, and as we talked, I asked, 'Who are you?' She laughed, and I didn't know she was my sister. I asked, and she smiled and laughed.

'What are you laughing at? Tell me.' 'Oh, I don’t know how to say it.' We were just asking each other questions without knowing each other. I didn't recognize her; she was the size of my fist when I ordained. When I saw her again, she was already a young woman, about 16 or 17. As we talked, I asked, 'So, who are you?' She laughed even more and didn’t dare to answer.

I guessed, 'Is it Jandi?' She replied, 'Yes.' 'Oh, you little ghost! I didn’t know it was you. Do you believe you are my sister? If you believe you are my sister, do you know when I ordained?' She said, 'I don’t know.' 'Then how can you say you are my sister?' 'Because our parents always talked about it.'

...Jandi was just the size of my fist before; I didn’t recognize her... When I ordained, she was about 4 years old, still a child. She said she didn’t know, which was correct. That’s how it was; siblings didn’t know each other. After ordaining, I never got involved with home. Once I ordained, I just left. I never cared about my siblings; it was like everyone else in this world—there was no closeness or distance. I never stepped into my siblings’ houses at all; it was all the same..."

Childhood Life

 Mother Jandi recounted that when she was a child in elementary school, she had strange knowledge in her heart. Before expressing anything, she felt a little fan spinning in her heart, sending out knowledge. For instance, one time in January, the teacher was reading "Mak-kha-ra-kam." While the teacher was reading, the little fan spun in her mind, and a voice said, "To read correctly, it must be pronounced Ma-kha-ra-kam." It was something strange for a child. She thought others might feel the same, so she casually asked her mother, "Do you feel the same?" Her mother replied, "I’ve never experienced that," and asked, "Where does it spin?" She pointed to her heart.

One day, a vendor with a basket of colorful jewelry came to sell. Her sisters, including her, wanted to buy and asked their mother to help purchase. The basket was full of jewels for children and adults. The girls begged, and their mother agreed to buy one piece for each. Everyone picked theirs, and when it was her turn, the little fan in her heart started spinning again, saying, "These adornments are worldly; they are not the way to overcome suffering." As soon as the voice finished, she immediately walked away, while her mother called after her, "Hey... why do you want it if you won’t take it?"

She said that if something indicated itself in her heart, she once tried to resist it, but she couldn’t; it was too powerful (it shook in her heart). She never succeeded in resisting even once. She was a dedicated student, very good at remembering and studying, to the point where the teacher would sometimes ask her to help teach her classmates. Many times in class, she would ask the teacher for permission to go home early. The teacher would ask, "Do you have something to do at home?" She replied, "I understand everything and don’t want to study the old lessons anymore." The teacher understood and explained, "You can’t go home now; even if you understand, your classmates don’t. You must consider them. How about this, I will let you help teach your classmates because back then, teachers were few, and one teacher had to teach multiple grades and subjects each day." After finishing grade 4, the teacher asked her to continue studying, and her parents and brother were happy to support her. She denied everyone, saying she wouldn’t study because her heart was spinning and telling her, "Studying won’t finish worldly matters! No matter how much you study, it will never end." How could she resist? It was truly something she couldn’t resist (she said she couldn’t resist).

First Meditation Experience

 When she was still a child, around 10 years old, she accompanied her mother to offer food to Luangta (her older brother). At that time, Luangta was stopping by a field near their village (to help her mother). On that day, she was the only child her mother took to offer the food. After the meal, Luangta taught her mother how to meditate. Although she was a child, she understood. While listening, her mind became calm, but she held back because she wanted to hear the instructions completely. That night when she returned home, she remembered how to meditate and tried sitting in meditation, practicing as Luangta had taught her mother. About three minutes in, her mind became calm, and she saw her body decay into dust. She said that night her mind remained calm until dawn. While in that calm state, she thought about how to handle things when it was time to pound rice, but she felt like her mind knew. When the time came, her mind withdrew just as it was time to pound rice. Luangta heard her mother recount the story of her meditation practice and asked, "Is that little Jandi who meditated?" Her mother replied, "Yes, that is Jandi." Luangta told her mother, "She has her own wisdom; she has something old."

When she was a young woman, she was determined to practice and uphold the precepts, seeking to ordain as a nun. However, her mother did not allow it, saying, “You are a woman; how can you ordain? Women don’t usually ordain; I’ve never seen it. Stop thinking about it.” (Her mother was concerned as, at that time, there were very few female monks in their area.)

During her youth, many young men courted her, but she was not interested in any of them (as her mind was focused solely on finding a way out of the world and liberation from suffering). Her brother suggested a man he deemed the best—someone with good character and morals. Despite this, she did not desire marriage, wanting only to practice, uphold the precepts, and meditate. Each time her mind indicated the truth, it grew increasingly fearful of worldly matters. When her brother asked, she declined several times, even though her mind loudly called out, “I want to learn everything about the world.”

While living in a household, she remained committed to observing the eight precepts on holy days and the five precepts strictly on regular days. She never killed animals. Her brother would say, “Jandi has never killed an animal; don’t let her eat meat.” Thus, she subsisted on bamboo shoots, vegetables, and various plants. If her brother insisted she kill an animal, she would say, “I would rather cry and refuse to eat than kill an animal.” Her relatives knew well that she would rather fast than take a life. She told herself, “I can eat anything, but I cannot destroy another life.” This belief was ingrained in her since childhood. Despite facing difficulties, as she wanted to make offerings to the monks but couldn’t kill animals, she sought out bamboo shoots, vegetables, and various plants to prepare food for the monks' alms. Many times her mother recounted that Luang ta said, “This morning, I received a large offering of bamboo shoots, more abundant than anyone else’s.” At that time, about 14-15 monks resided at the Wat Pa Ban Tad. Her mother then asked, “This morning, the Luang ta spoke of bamboo shoots; I wonder who they belonged to…” Jandi replied, “They were mine.”

Calmness in Various Occasions

While living in her household with four children—one son and three daughters—she remained dedicated to meditation and strictly observing the precepts. When Luang ta established the Wat Pa Ban Tad, it further encouraged her practice. Whenever she faced obstacles, she would consult Luang ta  when he came for alms in the village. On holy days, she would ask her husband to help care for the children. One night, while meditating, her mind was calm. When her baby cried, she still did not withdraw her mind, so she could not attend to her child in the cradle. After a while, her husband, noticing something was amiss, came in and took the baby out to feed him.

Life as a Farmer

In the past, farming was hard work without technology, requiring great endurance. Most of the time, they needed to stay in the fields, which led her to create walking paths for meditation. However, her time for meditation was limited as she farmed. One day, while her mother, Sister Kaew, visited her in the fields, she saw the meditation paths worn down and remarked, “Jandi, where are you? The Buddha’s signs are everywhere; no wonder your harvest exceeds others.”

One day at noon, while harvesting rice and reflecting on the Dharma, her mind became bright and calm. She continued harvesting without stopping to eat. When her mind finally withdrew, she had previously agreed with her husband to understand that when her mind was calm, he should not call her, allowing her to continue her practice. Fortunately, her husband had once been ordained, so he understood. She would always tell him that she wanted to practice meditation in this life and urged him not to be complacent with worldly existence.

One day, a powerful spirit possessed one of her relatives and said, “In my past life, I was wealthy, with a horse stable. I was so concerned about my possessions that after I died, I came to guard them. I suffer greatly and wish to be reborn, asking for your help. I will give you my wealth if you help me make merit with Luang ta , so I can be reborn.” Jandi and her relatives approached Luang ta , who said, “If you go, Jandi must accompany you.” Following Luang ta ’s instruction, they dug at the location the spirit indicated and found real jars filled with money. However, the spirit changed its mind, saying it still had much karma and was reluctant to part with its wealth, choosing instead to continue guarding it. The jars they unearthed sank back into the ground as the spirit confessed to her mother, “I want to give my heart, but I am possessive of my money and property. I know I suffer immensely, but I cannot let go.”

Teachings from Luang ta 

One morning, when Luang ta  came to collect alms in the village, he asked, “How is your meditation going?” Jandi replied, “I had a very strange dream where Luang ta  invited me to go with him. But in the dream, I was worried about my youngest child, so I asked to see my child first before following.” Luang ta  advised, “Well, you must decide. If you are worried about your child, then you cannot follow Luang ta .”

His words made her reflect, asking herself, “Luang ta  truly came to guide me; I interpret dreams with Luang ta ’s words. What am I still attached to or longing for?” This prompted her to think and decide more quickly.

She then sought permission from her husband and children to practice and uphold the precepts at Wat Pa Ban Tad in 1981, residing in a small hut deep within the forest, surrounded by large trees providing shade, with the ground full of rice plants.

She strictly observed the eight precepts and stated, “I ordain my heart in place of the precepts, which is the heart’s intention to refrain from wrongdoing. When the heart intends to refrain from wrongdoing, it aligns with the precepts. The precepts are one with the heart, which protects the precepts.” She noted that the precepts are a heart with the intention to refrain from all wrongdoing, and she would carefully examine any mistakes arising from her heart, maintaining warmth, firmness, and confidence without self-reproach regarding the precepts.

Jandi shared that during that time, Grandmother Kaew from the Huai Sai nun’s monastery often stayed at Wat Pa Ban Tad, kindly asking Jandi about her meditation practice. One time, she asked, “Jandi, has your mind separated and distinguished itself yet?” Jandi replied, “It has been separated, and I humbly report that it is like this now.” Grandmother listened and said, “That’s good; if the mind is separated and distinguished, it will only continue to grow.”

Later, Grandmother Kaew asked her how her practice was with her master (Luang ta ). She noted that the monks at the temple asked her mother (Grandmother Kaew) if grandmother knew who was that in the village, as deities, Indra, and Brahma came to rejoice with her parents and teachers. Luang ta  spoke in a gathering of monks, wondering, “How do they meditate despite having young children, farming, and household responsibilities? They see the deities!”

Grandmother then shared with the monks, “Who else could it be but Jandi (your sister)?” When Jandi had the opportunity to visit the temple, she recounted her experiences and asked, “Is this true?” since her mother had answered the monk before asking her.

She humbly informed Grandmother Kaew, “I have conveyed my practice to Luang ta  regarding everything, as without Luang ta ’s help, I might get stuck at various points and take longer; I need his guidance.”

Jandi explained, “In meditation, if there are no teachers to help guide, progress can be slow because during practice, we may see things that invite attachment due to their wondrous nature, which we have never encountered in life. It is not displayed anywhere in the world, except for individual practitioners who realize it through their practice. The truth arises in one’s heart, self-evident, needing no external validation.”

She emphasized that the guidance she received regarding meditation practice was accurate and aligned with the teachings of Luang ta . She shared her challenging experiences, even without climbing mountains or entering the forest, stating that the Dharma she attained was exchanged for her life. At one point, her mind proclaimed, “Trade your life for the Dharma.” Luang ta  urged her, “Don’t be attached to your life; hurry, hurry…”

She would often say, “Luang ta  taught me to practice this way; if it comes from Luang ta ’s words, then the meditation practice cannot deviate.”

On the night of August 29, 1992, at half-past five, during a stormy night with strong winds, she bowed to the Buddha and sat in meditation. Insights arose in her mind: “The root exists, but there is no earth, water, fire, or wind; there is no birth, no coming, no going, no emotions. That is the end of suffering.”

At that moment, her mind was still, not contemplating anything. The large jackfruit tree beside her hut shook loudly due to the strong wind. She thought it might collapse on her hut, and she might die with it. Ignorance shattered from her mind, revealing its deep grip. She felt a powerful impact as if the earth trembled, with loud sounds echoing. The heavens and earth twisted together and then separated. The elements trembled, accompanied by the sounds of rejoicing from the heavens at all levels, down to the depths of the earth. Sounds of music resounded in her heart, declaring, “Empty—emptiness is the pure mind > this is pure mind, this is nature.” As ignorance departed, the Buddha and all Arahants, especially Luang ta , supported her mind. Everything happened simultaneously; nothing preceded or followed. There were countless experiences she could not fully articulate because they were beyond this world; upon encountering them, one would know.

She stated, “There is no limitation; it resides in everyone’s heart. Don’t fear death; it is the defilements that fear death. To escape death leads to Dharma; it does not die. The brave do not fear death; only defilements fear dying from the heart.”

That night, she expressed her gratitude to all the Buddhas, the Dharma, and the Sangha, especially to Luang ta , who was her teacher, father, and brother in this life.

That night, she did not sleep...

When she met Luang ta  again, she reported to him all the states of Dharma that had occurred.

After she finished speaking, Luang ta  replied, “I am free from worries now.”

Jandi Lohitdee is well-known and respected by the disciples of Luang ta  Mahabua Yanasanpanno. For approximately 32 years, since 1981, she has practiced Dharma and taught disciples at Wat Pa Ban Tad, embodying peace, simplicity, and warmth. She exhibited determination and seriousness, which could seem intimidating to weaker disciples. Her gaze when teaching disciples to combat their defilements was courageous and resolute. If any disciple lacked mental strength, she would gradually support them, subtly indicating, “The defilements in your own heart have already been killed; now you must conquer the defilements of others? Oh, how pitiful!”

Jandi Lohitdee passed away at 1:03 AM on August 15, 2013, in her sterile hut at Wat Pa Ban Tad, Udonthani, at the age of 82 years, 11 months, and 2 days. She demonstrated miraculous Dharma clearly, as she ceased breathing at 12:45 AM, her heart stopped at 12:48 AM, and her heart’s electrical activity ceased at 1:03 AM.

She left behind a legacy of goodness for future practitioners to follow.

《luang ta maha bua 的妹妹證得阿羅漢果之夜》

在1992年8月29日晚上十一點半，這是一個陰雲密布、風很大的夜晚。 Mae Chan Dee禮佛之後便開始打坐修行，心中湧現出一個法義：

「那境界是存在的，但沒有地、水、火、風，沒有輪迴，沒有去處，沒有來處，沒有任何情緒，那就是苦的盡頭。」

當時她的心只是靜靜地停留在那裡，好像沒有在思考什麼。

外面一棵已經枯死的大菠蘿蜜樹在他的小屋旁因強風而搖擺作響。他以為那樹會倒下來壓毀小屋，而她也將與之同歸於盡。就在這時，她內心的無明忽然斷裂，意識到無明是多麼的頑固。同時，她感到自己好像從高處墜落到地面。整個大地震動，傳來震耳欲聾的響聲，“咚……咚……咚……咚……”，天空捲曲下來，與大地交纏，之後才再次分開。天地之間的震動伴隨著天上各層天神的歡呼讚嘆，每一層天神、每一位梵天都在一起歡喜讚嘆。 （天界的）樂器奏起樂曲，迴盪在整個空間。 Mae Chan Dee心中響起一個聲音：

“空 - 放下即是佛心 > 純淨的心 > 自然的心”

當無明從心靈中斷裂的那一刻，佛陀與所有的阿羅漢弟子，特別是師父(的法)都在資助她的心靈。這一切都同時發生，沒有先後之分。還有許多無法盡述的，因為這些超越世俗的體驗，只有親身經歷才能明白。

Mae Chan Dee說，這（涅槃）不是不可能的，每個人的心中都藏有這種可能。不要害怕死亡，煩惱會害怕死亡；只有透過不懼死亡才能證得真理，要不然煩惱不會真的死去。那些勇於面對死亡，不懼怕死亡的人，煩惱才會從心中消失。

那天晚上，她向所有的佛陀、法、所有的僧，特別是師父，表達了無盡的感恩。師父不只是她的老師，也是她的父親、兄長，在這一生中有著同樣的血脈。

那晚，她整夜未眠。

當她再次見到師父(luang ta maha bua)時，她將自己經歷的所有境界都告訴了師父。

師父聽完後說：

“現在我可以放心了…”

เป็นคืนที่ ฟ้าครึ้ม และลมพัดแรงมาก

ท่านกราบพระแล้วนั่งภาวนา

ข้อธรรมได้ผุดขึ้นในจิตว่า

“อายะตะนะนั้นมีอยู่ แต่ไม่มีดิน-น้ำ-ไฟ-ลม

ไม่มีจุติเคลื่อน ไม่มีที่ไป ไม่มีที่มา ไม่มีอารมณ์

ไม่มีอารมณ์ นั้นแหละคือที่สุดแห่งทุกข์”

จิตตอนนั้นจ่อเฉย ๆ เหมือนไม่พิจารณาอะไร

เสียงต้นขนุนใหญ่ที่แห้งตาย อยู่ข้างกุฏิ สั่นไหวเสียงดังลั่นเพราะลมแรง

ขวาซ้ายสถานกลาง ร่วมอนุโมทนา สาธุการ

เสียงปี่พาทย์ บรรเลงขับกล่อม กระหึ่มก้อง

เสียงประกาศก้องขึ้นที่จิต

“ว่าง-วางเป็นจิตพุทธะ > จิตบริสุทธิ > จิตเป็นธรรมชาติ”

ขณะที่อวิชชาขาดออกจากจิต

พระพุทธเจ้าและพระอรหันต์สาวกทุก ๆ พระองค์

อย่ากลัวตาย กิเลสมันกลัวตาย 

รอดตายจึงได้ธรรม มันไม่ตายหรอก

คนกล้าตาย ไม่กลัวตาย มีแต่กิเลสนั่นหละจะตายจากหัวใจ

當吃肉的時候，不管吃的是什麼樣的食物，都要憶念並慈悲地迴向功德給那些生命——那些血肉之軀——我們正在吃他們的肉，為了滋養我們的身體、為了維持我們的生命得以延續、為了行善積德。

她講述說：「昨晚，有人供養了一隻烤雞。當我將雞肉送入口中的時候，那隻雞的意識——也就是它那被吃掉的肉的主人——那隻雞的心在哭泣哀號，它說：

’母親吃了我身上的肉，請把功德與善業迴向給我，慈悲於我吧。因為我今生為雞，死了還不知道來世會轉生為哪一類的眾生。能夠再轉生為人，像別人一樣的機會恐怕是沒有了。我向母親求一份功德，幫幫我。既然吃了我的肉，請也迴向一份功德給我吧。 ’”

她說：“它的心令人憐憫、令人哀傷。它只是身體為畜生，但它的心依然感受到痛苦、折磨與苦難，就像我們人類一樣。”

「聽到這些之後，當我們吃他者的血肉時，要憶念他們的恩德與功德。人類與動物，都是曾經生死輪回無數次的眾生，互相吃過彼此的血肉，輪換生於高低不同的境界，就是這樣無盡地循環著。”

「佛法曾經在我心中響起：『這世間不過是一場啖糞之苦。』唉，越思考就越令人悲傷。母親告訴你們的、講給你們聽的，不要讓它白白地被忽略啊。”

When eating meat, no matter what kind of food it is, we should remember and compassionately dedicate the merits to those lives—those flesh-and-blood beings—whose meat we are consuming, to nourish our bodies and sustain our lives, and to accumulate good deeds.

She recounted: 'Last night, someone offered a roasted chicken. As I put the chicken meat in my mouth, the consciousness of that chicken—the owner of the flesh that was eaten—was crying out. It said:
‘Mother has eaten my flesh. Please dedicate the merits and good deeds to me; have compassion for me. In this life, I am a chicken, and I do not know what kind of being I will be reborn as in the next life. The chance of being reborn as a human, like others, is probably gone. I ask my mother for a share of merit to help me. Since you have eaten my flesh, please also dedicate a share of merit to me.’

It said Its heart is pitiable and sorrowful. It is just a body of a beast, but its heart still feels pain, torment, and suffering, just like us humans.'

'After hearing this, when we eat the flesh and blood of others, we must remember their kindness and merits. Humans and animals are all beings who have gone through countless cycles of life and death, having eaten each other's flesh and blood, endlessly cycling through various realms.'

'The Buddha's teachings once resonated in my heart: 'This world is nothing but a suffering of eating excrement.' Alas, the more we think about it, the more sorrowful it becomes. What your mother has told you, do not let it be ignored in vain.'

“禅修时间...

觉察呼吸的进与出，

感知呼吸的进与出，

无需刻意控制呼吸。

随时觉知呼吸的进与出。

平静时，不必欢喜；

不平静时，不必厌恶。

既不执着于平静，

也不抗拒不平静。

只需觉知...

如实观照当下的法。

In meditation time...

Be aware of the in-breath and out-breath,

Perceive the in-breath and out-breath,

Without needing to consciously control the breath.

Be aware of the in-breath and out-breath at all times.

When calm, there is no need for joy;

When not calm, there is no need for aversion.

Do not cling to calmness,

Nor resist restlessness.

Just be aware...

Observe the present moment as it is."

渴望世俗繁榮的人們

注重教育固然好。

但對於母親（我）來說，學習越多，慾望就越多。

只有驕傲，自我。

那些專注於佛法的人，你學習得越多，就離出離世間的痛苦越遠。

轉生萬世，十萬世，讓你無止境地學習。

但母親只學會了' buddho' (默念佛號）

就完成了Mae Chan Dee 的三界（應指不再投生到欲界，色界，無色界--證悟涅槃）

People who yearn for worldly prosperity

Focusing on education is certainly good.

But for mother (me), the more one learns, the more desires arise.

Only pride and self remain.

Those who concentrate on the Dharma, the more you learn, the further you move away from the suffering of the world.

Rebirth after rebirth, for eons, allows you to learn endlessly.

But the mother only learned 'buddho' (the recitation of the Buddha's name)

and has completed the three realms of Mae Chan Dee (possibly referring to the realm of desire, realm of form, realm of formlessness).
