Pairs the concise homage to Luang Phor Kasem Khemako (BE 2455–2539, descendant of the royal house of Na Lampang who renounced the abbacy to dwell in austere charnel-ground practice at Susan Trailak) with the homage to Luang Phor Uttama (Uttamarambho, BE 2453–2549), patriarch of the Mon-Burmese border community at Sangkhlaburi.
