There is not much documented information about Luang Phu Rod's life before Ordination, because in Olden days people did not register or keep records of things as much as we do in the present day, but from what evidence has been found, it is thought that Luang Phu Rod was born and grew up as a local of Klong Bang Khwang District, in Tambon Kung Than Municipality, in Amphoe Bang Khun Tian Metropolitan District of Nontaburi.
It is believed that the refusal to because Luang Phu Rod refused to use the official terminology of respect towards King Rama 4, because he was angry about the splitting of the Sangha into Dhammayut, and Maha Nikaya sects, which he considered the King to have caused a schism in the Sangha.

His first apprentice Luang Phu Iam followed him, who was later to become equally famous as Abbot of Wat Hnang, and who would continue the famous Wicha Pra Pid Ta of Luang Phu Rod, and attain equal fame for this Wicha. The Pra Pid Ta of Luang Phu Rod Wat Ko Non is one of the top ten Pid Ta amulets of all history, for Luang Phu Rod was considered in his time to be one of the Masters with the most powerful Wicha, with so many stories of devotees experiencing miracles with his amulets in circulation that his name became legendary around the whole country.
It is told that a thief once stole the boat which was moored by riverbank belonging to the temple, and that the thief found himself stuck in the middle of the river with the boat spinning in circles, and could not get the boat to move no matter what he tried, and remained stuck there, until Luang Phu Rod came down from his Kuti Hut, and called out to the thief, to paddle back towards the temple.
The thief tried this and easily returned to the bank of the river, and gave the boat back to Luang Phu Rod in astonishment. Luang Phu Rod then invited the thief up to his Kuti hut and ordered one of the Samaneras to bring some food for him. he gave the thief a meal and said 'if you have satisfied your hunger, you can go home now', and the thief Bowed in reverence, and went peacefully home, filled with amazement and faith in the powers of Luang Phu Rod.
His ability to remove Black Magick Curses was especially renowned.
A Tudong Tale
Luang Phu Rod was a Monk who would spend long periods on Tudong in the Forest, even in the depths of the Jungle which was filled with dangerous elephants, tigers, and other predatory and poisonous beasts, but was Adept with Magical Protective Wicha to be able to survive all of these dangers. There is a legend of Luang Phu Rod taking a Samanera Novice Monk with him on Tudong Practice in the forest, and they traveled as far as Huay Grabork in Kanjanaburi, where they encountered obstacles.
There were only two ways to continue their path through the forest, the first being to climbv over high mountains which were very steep wi. The Samanera followed him by stepping on exactly the same leaves Luang Phu had stepped on, until he was nearly accross, whereupon he changed direction and stepped on a leaf which Luang Phu had not stepped on, and sank immediately underwater, and had to struggle to the bank of the water marsh. Luang Phu then taught the Samanera the importance of concentration when following, and when practicing, because on single moment of distraction is enough to send everything astray, and is tantamount to carelessness.
There are so many stories in circulation of the many miraculous or magical events related to Luang Phu Rod, his deeds and his amulets, especially the Pra Pid Ta. During the time at Wat Ko Non, both Luang Phu Rod, and his Apprentice Luang Phu Iam (Later to be Abbot of Wat Hnang), made Pra Pid Ta in the same design and fashion, using hand carved wooden images made from sacred treewoods, for distribution to devotees.
The amulets brought such powerful results to devotees, that the Pra Pid ta Mai Gae wooden carved amulets of both Luang Phu Rod Most Pid Ta would have a tiny hole made in the base with a miniature parchment scroll inserted with spells inscribed invoking Pra Sangkajjayana, Pra Sivali, and Pra Pakawambodee Arahants. The base would then often be filled with Channarong Stingless Bee Paste, considered a wealth bringing magical substance within the Dtamra Saiyawaet Grimoires.
Some amulets were left in original wood, and other amulets would be coated with laquer or herbal resins, and sometimes also gold leaf blessing, to increase power, and to protect and seal the amulets from the weather, and make them and their magic long lasting. Although Luang Phu Rod taught Luang Phu Iam to make these amulets in the same fashion, his Looksit LP Iam himself did not make as many carved wooden amulets as Luang Phu Rod his Mentor, and had slightly more preference to make them both from Wood and from Sacred Alchemical Metals, in order to ensure enough amulets to provide for all devotees. The wooden Pid Ta of Luang Phu Rod were hence made in larger numbers than those of his apprentice Luang Phu Iam. It can be said however, that the amulets of both masters are extremely rare to encounter, and highly prized acquisitions of the serious devotee of authentically powerful amulets, and avid collectors of Pra Niyom Master Class Category Amulets.
Because of the time consumption involved with hand carving wooden minature Buddha images, Luang Phu Rod himself also did not make many amulets during his trajectory, blessing each one as they were carved individually, making the Pra Pid Ta of Luang Phu Rod a true 'Essential Rarity' and one of the most highly revered Pra Pid Ta Amulets of All Time, along with those of Wat Tong, Luang Phu Iam, Luang Phu Rod of Wat Bang Nam Won, Pra Pid Ta Rae Bang Phai, and The Pra Pid ta of all the Masters of Wat Sapan Sung (LP Iam, LP Glin, LP Tong Sukh). th rocky clif faces, and very inaccessible, otherwise, before them lay a very wide lake covered in Lotuses. Luang Phu Rod turned around to the Samanera following him, and said 'shall we cross the marsh together?' The samanera answered 'If Luang Phu crosses successfully, i shall follow'.
So Luang Phu Rod sat for a while in Meditation and invoked the Jhanic state of Apo Kasina (Water Elemental), and then slowly crossed the water marsh stepping on the lotus leaves, until he reached the other side. The Samanera followed him by stepping on exactly the same leaves Luang Phu had stepped on, until he was nearly accross, whereupon he changed direction and stepped on a leaf which Luang Phu had not stepped on, and sank immediately underwater, and had to struggle to the bank of the water marsh.
Luang Phu then taught the Samanera the importance of concentration when following, and when practicing, because on single moment of distraction is enough to send everything astray, and is tantamount to carelessness.
