Details
Voramai Kabilsingh (Thai: วรมัย กบิลสิงห์; Woramai Kabinsing), also called Ta Tao Fa Tzu, was born Lamai Kabilsingh (Thai: ลมัย กบิลสิงห์; Lamai Kabinsing; 6 April 1908; died 23 June 2003), was the first modern Thai bhikkhuni. Voramai's father had wanted sons and was disappointed her mother only produced one so left for China. Later her sister married a merchant and she would work at their store where she learned English. She also was taught by Catholic nuns at Assumption Girls' College. She developed a passion for writing and journalism. She also, unusual for a Thai woman of that era, excelled at sword fighting. While studying at a physical education college she met her husband. The marriage was largely an arrangement, however, so she could avoid being married to a Japanese man. It did lead her to gain the name "Voramai", but his political career ended up causing some physical distance. Despite that they remained supportive of each other while living apart. After a tumor scare she became more interested in religion.
