The 83-year-old monk was found lying with pale face, shaking body and muscle weakness in his living quarter at 2 am in Dan Khun Thot district's Wat Ban Rai.

His disciples rushed him to a local hospital where he received glucose due to the low blood sugar level of 34 milligram per cent. The monk later was transferred to Maharaj Nakhon Ratchasima Hospital at 8 am.
