Sam Fang Kaen was deposed by Tilokaraj (r. 1441–1487), who placed his support behind the new more rigorous forest sect and allowed it to become the dominant sect in the kingdom. He is known for building several monasteries for the new Buddhist order, including Wat Chet Yot and Wat Pa Daeng. The king also enlarged Wat Chedi Luang to house the Emerald Buddha. During his reign, there was a Buddhist council convened (c. 1477) to review the Pali Canon. It is considered the eighth Buddhist council in the Thai tradition.
