The word Ruesi is derived from the Sanskrit word Rishi and they were around in the pre Buddha times, perhaps 3 – 4,000 years ago. They lived in the deep forests in what is now known as Nepal and India. Separated from society and free of the attachments and distractions normal life brings, the Ruesi developed strong spiritual powers, often meditating for weeks at a time. Their role was similar to that of a sage / hermit. They made potions from plants and roots, healing the people when they came across sickness. They wandered from place to place instructing the people as they went. A Ruesi is a heritage that is handed down from father to son.
An eremite (hermit) Buddhist monk leads a totally solitary life. The eremite monk renounces all worldly concerns and pleasures in order to pursue his religious and spiritual goals. The eremite monk seeks total solitude and spends his time in prayer, meditation and contemplation without the distractions of any contact with human society or the need for any standard of normal cleanliness or dress. This way of living was not to abandon or stay away from the normal enjoyment of life but it was recognition that spiritual and religious goals would be impeded by the indulgence of normal living.
The legend of highly developed beings has been told in different mythologies and cultures around the world. In Thailand there are also various legends of “Pu Wised”, or Lersi , Arahants or Yogis. These Lersi are said to have possessed various powers, such as knowledge of herbal medicines, minerals, magical invocations, and supernatural abilities such as levitation, teleportation, alchemy, and mind reading. These beings with special powers are reputed to have lived recluse lives in the forest, on mountains, or in caves; practicing meditative skills and mental development using secret methods passed on from mouth to ear by their forefathers.
