The monk and the monk's dog are on their way to the temple when the monk asks the dog why he's following them. The dog replies that he doesn't know why the monk is following him, but the monk explains that he stopped the dog while he was looking into the issue of the congregation and the holy book. The monk says that the dog is just a watchdog, and that he shouldn't have to worry about him. He says that he trampled his ancestors under his feet when he was a child, and the dog should stop bothering him.
