Naga cave finds: Udon Thani temple’s trashy treasure trove (video)

A temple in the Isaan province of Udon Thani discovered used sanitary pads, dirty underwear, clothing, and infectious materials from a hospital within the structure of an unfinished Naga waterfall cave.

The Laotian monk, Lin Sujitto, from Pa Don Thuen Temple in the Ban Phue district of Udon Thani province, took to social media to share his shocking discovery of the temple’s unfinished construction project. In his caption, the monk stated…

“Almost died seeking the budget to build this but we will eventually have to demolish it. We have no excuse, and we will fix this.”

The video included in the post showed concrete fragments mixed with dirty items. Monk Lin was heard asking the new construction contractor what he found at the site. The contractor revealed that he found used sanitary pads, a bloody sarong, dirty underwear, infectious hospital fabrics, and other filthy items hidden in the structure.

Monk Lin later gave an interview with Channel 3 about the incident, explaining that the temple initiated a project to build the Naga waterfall cave and raised funds for it two years ago. The cave was intended to be used for Dhamma retreats and other temple activities.

After raising enough donations, the temple hired a contractor to oversee the project. However, the monks and workers all agreed that the design and several details of the cave were unimpressive.

Black magic

As a result, the temple asked the contractor to stop work, leaving the project unfinished while they searched for a new contractor.

Monk Lin stated that he later began to feel uncomfortable while meditating, experiencing the same feeling for seven consecutive days. He then felt compelled to believe that the temple needed to demolish the unfinished cave due to the unfortunate and inauspicious items hidden within its structure.

He consulted with other monks, and they eventually decided to demolish the project. To their shock, dirty items were discovered packed into each structure and covered with concrete. Many monks and residents believed the contractor attempted to place an evil spell or black magic on the temple.

However, Monk Lin had a different view, suggesting that the contractor may have been cutting costs by avoiding purchasing proper construction materials to increase profits, or that the contractor was simply unprofessional and lacked knowledge of construction.

Monk Lin reassured the local community and the donors who previously contributed to the fundraising efforts that he would launch a new project to successfully build the Naga waterfall cave in the future.

Monk Lin previously made headlines in April this year after sharing a video in which a Thai ladyboy harassed him, another monk, and his followers by repeatedly offering them sexual services.
