While he is walking out of the forest, he feels like something is following him. That night, Pey again decides to leave the monkhood due to unrest within his mind after he recalls his wrongful deeds. The preceptor leads him to a cave where Buddha images are installed and instructs him to stay there and meditate in order to calm himself down and realise the wrong he has done. But Pey flings the abbot down to the floor and continues to walk out of the forest. The aged abbot begs him to stay, hoping that the religion could clean his mind a little bit more. Moreover, after consuming the ghost's offerings, he feels like he has been followed by the ghost. A senior monk says this is an omen indicating the time for the departure of the existing ghost and the coming of a new ghost.Īfter days at the temple, Pey cannot bear the strict precepts any longer.
The next morning, the monks inspect the area where Pey entered last night and see that the nibung tree where the ghost's offerings were placed was broken. But he is caught by his preceptor and is brought back to his cell. Pey walks to the place where the ceremony was held and eats the offerings dedicated to the ghost. On that night, Pey feels hungry and goes out of his monastic cell to find something to eat, although the precepts prohibit monks from eating at night.
At the temple, Pey witnesses an annual ceremony of feeding the ghost being punished for its sinful deeds. To avoid being found, Pey's mother has her son ordained at a remote temple in a southern forest. One day, he throws a rock at the car of his own father, mistaking him for a normal driver. Pey is a fourteen-year-old boy who repeatedly commits crimes of throwing rocks at oncoming cars before looting them.
