It was said that Lersi and hermit practitioners had long used the location for meditation because of its peaceful and concentrated atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere were also stories that wild animals occasionally entered the cave towards the end of their lives. In local animist interpretation, they were believed to be drawn towards the calm spiritual quality of the place during their final moments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Por Sala Tan entered the area, he regarded the atmosphere as particularly positive. The surrounding forest was dense and flourishing, with thick vegetation growing around the cave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the cave he encountered old animal relics, including remains associated with \u003cstrong\u003eMii — bear\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than taking everything available, Por Sala Tan selected only several suitable relics.
