Why did Rasputin leave his village? What training did Rasputin now seek? Did this training change him?
Need help ASAP please

In 1897, Rasputin developed a renewed interest in religion and left Pokrovskoye to go on a pilgrimage. His reasons are unclear; according to some sources, Rasputin left the village to escape punishment for his role in a horse theft. Other sources suggest he had a vision of the Virgin Mary or of St. I don't know what training he seeked but I did answer the first one and the answer to Did this training change him well, here is the answer, Having never officially taken holy orders to become a monk, Rasputin instead became a state (holy man) and gave spiritual guidance to people. As his reputation grew more powerful, the Holy Synod of the Orthodox Church became furious at the upstart mystic.
