While residing at the Jetavana Monastery in Savatthi, the Buddha talked about a peta (hungry ghost) called Pesakara who had once been the wife of a weaver. When she was a human, she was stingy. She scolded her husband while he was offering food and robes to monks. After their deaths, the husband was born as a deity living nearby a main road, wheras the wife was born as a ghost living near him. She was living without food and clothes and being burned in pain. When she asked for food and clothes from the deity, the food turned into excrement and the clothes into hot metal sheets.
Colophon:
Folio 24 on the recto side: In Culasakkrat (CS) 1285, a ka mot year, on the thirteenth day of the waning moon of the seventh [lunar] month, the fourth day of the week (Wednesday), at the time of the morning drum (7:30–9:00), the writing of this manuscript was finished. […] had the religious faith to sponsor the making of this manuscript entitled Maha Vibak to dedicate [the merit] to Phò Kam Mae Ven (deceased persons or spirits who would come to harm us any times). May all diseases and dangers be vanished from my body. May I have longevity for 120 years. Nibbānaṃ paramaṃ sukkhaṃ niccaṃ anāgate kāle (Nirvana is the greatest bliss).
