Why do you want to be a monk Zhihu, what does it feel like to be a monk

In short, it is eight words: do not live and die, do not choose to become a monk. Becoming a monk is one's own practice, a choice in life, not a profession.

There are two types of ordination. If it was in the previous era, the monks were all because they were in the dust, looking for a place to meditate. And with the change of the times, to the present, the monk has evolved into a vanity fair, and now monks can drink wine and eat meat, and can have women.

Moreover, it is still a very lucrative profession, and incense is very lucrative.

Get up at 30 (the sunrise is earlier in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, usually 3:00-3:30);

00-6:00 to the temple for morning class (in order to facilitate students with different time differences across the country to experience the morning class, our temple is specially scheduled to do morning class at 6:00-7:00);

00-6:30 Breakfast (eating is also one of the spiritual practices, and Zen Buddhism is often called "passing the hall").

30-7:30 Open the door, clean or do other work.

00-10:00 Meditation or doing the things assigned by the abbot;

00-11:00 self-study (the temple also has non-rigid arrangements for this process, or meditation and chanting of scriptures, or watching the temple tour, every monk and resident has temple affairs);

00-11:30 Admission (lunch);

30-14:00 Lunch break.

00-15:30 Meditation or doing the things assigned by the abbot;

00-17:00 Go to the temple for evening classes;

30-18:00 Medicine Stone (Because the monastery pays attention to not eating at noon, this meal is to help those monks who can't do lunch without food to practice, which is like a medicine and is called "medicine stone").

00-19:00 Close the temple gate; Sutra practice (the Dharma teachers usually walk around, because they need to maintain inner awareness when walking, which is also a way of practice, so it is called "sutra"); Cleaning.

00-20:00 Meditation (this time is relatively free, monks will choose various ways such as meditation, practice, and drinking tea).

00 fall asleep. If you don't sleep all night and meditate, it's called "not falling down at night."

First of all, you have to know that monks don't surf the Internet.

Same question, why don't you leave home? Why don't you want to become a monk? Why can't you become a monk?

Monks, and we in our family, may be different in appearance, with hair and without hair. These are just forms. Monks, they have a great wish, and that is to save sentient beings.

Don't think that being a monk is an escape from the world. Actually, this is wrong. Maybe there are such people in it.

Every day as a monk is very hard. Wake up at 4 a.m. There's a lot to do in a day.

These are all spiritual practices. At the same time, there are many precepts. Why do you have to become a monk after suffering so much?

That's for the sake of sentient beings.

As a monk, you can save sentient beings at home. Often, the desire to become a monk is greater. Very few are in the body of the family, but there is a great will.

Many people are tired of the world and want to escape, but there are still a few people who really love the Dharma.

The practice of ordination is based on a sincere belief in Buddhism, the pursuit of liberation from birth, old age, sickness, and death, and then the liberation of all sentient beings and the perfection of the Buddha's path.

Hehe, fate arrives, and it becomes natural.

1. Now it's just a matter of thinking about it, and I can't let go of the many obstacles of the world.

2. You can practice when you enter and leave the world, and there are countless virtuous people, so why bother to stick to it.

Seems reasonable. Not necessarily.

Why do you have a family? Explain this problem and solve it. Hehe.
