"Drunk monk meets de-frockers"

PATTAYA: -- It was like a comedy scene from a Hollywood movie - except the monk removed from a tour bus seemed to be deadly serious as he told those who took his robes that he would see them in hell.

 

Pattaya police - many struggling to keep a straight face - were called to the Nakornchai bus station after complaints from passengers about a monk on a service from Rayong.

 

He was shouting incoherently and even tearing up money.

 

Police found him sitting at the bus station reeking of booze.

 

He said he was not drunk at all.

 

After trying to calm him down police took Phra Phitakorn Suthammo, 35, to his temple of Wat Thamma Samakhee where he tried to grope the abbot.

 

Despite prostrating himself on the floor the abbot decided enough was enough and ordered immediate defrocking.

 

But Phitakorn was furious and threw down his robes in disgust as he was dressed in white, saying that he would see those who would defrock him in hell.

 

He then walked away from the temple as if nothing had happened.

 

The whole drama that occurred after midnight this morning was recorded on video.

You definitely don't reach nirvana by doing that:post-4641-1156693976:

What defrock is going on with these monks?

 

It's as if anyone can join the brotherhood. No need for any qualifications or morals.

 

I would stop giving them food and money, but I'm worried my next life won't be as ostentatious.

He was an old Abbot trying to hide a smile. 

Yes as each day passes the drama in life heightens but this is way over the top. If there are wat awards this guy deserves one.

Sounds like a case of role reversal.  It is usually the abbots groping the young monks isn't it?

I don't think its funny at all, if this skunk tried to grope a sr monk you can easily imagine what he would do to the very young monks in the area?

There should be an investigation.......immediately.

Nice thought but in Thailand that aint going to happen.

 

The land of smoke and mirrors and secrets and lies.

Well, he's off the gravy train.  No more money from blessing the new houses and businesses.   

yet another case of ''robe rage''in thailand

When I think back to the 60's and Derek Nimo in All Gas and Gaiters an Oh Brother, surely there is an opportunity for Thai TV to produce a sitcom based a a fictitious Temple.

After he sobers up he can get back in. He might be transferred to a temple in the middle of nowhere that's not to active.

Drunkenness aside, that's rather a camp monk, which makes sense of the abbot groping. Perhaps he'll be refrocked and back on the beach in high heels and a wig soon. 

A leopard never changes his spots, far too many of these types in saffron robes doing the easy rip of life.

..the eyes give it away.....well, if.... that ghost monk only received justice and judgment this way... then more....good guys bad guys out....
