Khun Mae Boon Ruen was born in 4th March 2437 and passed away in 7th September 2507 at the age of 70 years old. She was a very close disciple of Lp Sod Wat Paknam where she learnt the way of meditation till a very high level.

She first started off learning meditation at 15 years old under her uncle who is Lp Prink Wat Bangpakod. She later got married to a police sergeant but did not stop her practice of meditation.

After marriage she often went to Wat SamPanTaWong to meditate because she felt very peaceful there and even encourage her husband to ordain as a monk there.

When her husband retired, she decided to ordain herself as a nun and resided in a house named as ban samnak kisut. In this samnak, Mae Chi Boon Ruen practiced and taught meditation to anybody who came.

She also had many people queuing at her doorstep everyday because of her healing powers. She later moved to Rayong for one year to continue meditation before coming back to reside in Wat Awut until she passed on.
