How to become a monk

Question 1: I want to become a monk. What are the ways to become a monk? First of all, you should make it clear which Taoist association you want to become a monk, and then you can contact that Taoist association to ask about it. Now the conditions of Wudang Mountain Taoist Association are attached, and other Taoist associations should be similar, but the specific matters should be asked in person about the conditions and steps for Wudang Mountain Taoist Association to accept Protestants: (stipulated in 2009) 1: Good facial features and good social performance. 2. Have a high school education or above. You must get permission from your parents or relatives to become a monk. 4: The age is between 18-40 years old. 5.

Protestants should learn to read, sing, knock and play morning and evening altar classes, three official scriptures, ancestral scriptures and learn from Tai Ji Chuan. You can only be hired as an official monk if you pass the exam for one year. Wudang Mountain has no institutions to teach Taoism to the outside world for the time being. If you want to learn Taoism in Wudang Mountain, you have to become a monk. (stipulated in 2008) The conditions for Wudang Mountain to become a monk are:

Participants have good facial features and good social performance.

Buddhists must become monks and practice.

Hold an ID card and a letter of introduction from the local public security organ, and bring one year's living expenses and daily necessities.

Protestants will first be sent to places with difficult conditions to be tested and hone their minds.

Protestants should learn to read, sing, knock and play morning and evening altar classes, three official scriptures and ancestral scriptures in one year. In addition, we should learn from Wudang Tai Ji Chuan.

Only after passing the exam one year can you be hired as a formal monk.

At present, Wudang Mountain Taoist Association accepts Protestants as follows: 1, loves Taoism, is devout, voluntary, with the consent of relatives, has correct facial features and is in good health.

2. The age is between 18-35 years old, and the education is above senior high school or technical secondary school, which is based on the certificate. (except for those who need temple view with special skills) There is a county-level public security certificate to prove that there is no illegal and criminal behavior. Have an ID card, a copy of the household registration book and relevant procedures.

3. All absorbed Protestants must report to the President for decision after passing the security review. You must pass the exam of 1-2 years. During the assessment period, the association only provides accommodation, not remuneration and holidays. If you have any questions, send them outside the temple.

4. During the examination period, Protestants studied the morning class, the evening class, the recitation of the Three Official Classics, the Ancestor Classics, the Beidou Classics, the use of instruments, the basic rules and knowledge of Taoism, the Tao Te Ching and the Taishang Tropism Classics. Learn and abide by the rules and regulations of the Taoist Association. Tai Ji Chuan has three sets, sword and optional.

5. After the expiration of the examination, Taoist priests can pass the cultural examination first, and all of them pass the examination before they can become official Taoist priests and hold Dojo ceremonies.

6. During the examination for new believers, it is forbidden to learn from teachers, and offenders will end the examination and leave the temple.

7. Those who used to live in Wudang Mountain and asked to go back to the mountain performed well and made no mistakes. After being approved by the Taoist Association, it will be implemented according to Protestant standards.

8. On-the-spot requirements for Taoist friends of Long Hangdan should be carried out according to Protestant standards with the consent of Taoist Association. (except special skills)

If you want to become a monk, you must first think about whether you want to be a Quanzhen Taoist or a orthodox school.

Quanzhen Road: Pure heart and lack of desire, living in the temple for a long time.

In the same way: I have a mind of monasticism, but I am similar to people who usually go to work.

Of course, this is just a simple statement. As for the details, there are many and the time is long.

All Tao Zhen became a monk. Generally speaking, the following points are needed:

Before you go to the temple, you should prepare three certificates: resident ID card, valid certificate of neighborhood committee and above town (to prove that you are innocent), and consent certificate of family members' consent to becoming a monk (this is only valid if the authorities above town stamp and sign).

Then you have to go through a period of evaluation and observation to see if your patience and determination are real monks.

Question 2: How can I become a monk? See if laymen like the whole truth or the whole truth. You can really go to the nearest Taoist association or Taoist temple. You need 18 years old, parents agree, and the three-year master's study tour is also a complete three years. During these three years, you will learn to sing with your other disciples. If you don't make mistakes for three years, wear a scarf. In fact, it takes less than three years, usually more than one year. After that, it was almost the same.

First, you can travel to Tianshifu or Xishan Wanshou Palace, and you must have proof of innocence before traveling. Just call the temple you want to go to before going. Traveling costs money, and the cost of traveling is different every year. Tianshifu is wearing a Taoist robe now 1800, regardless of the situation of teachers and students and the pending orders of the temple, just watch the disc. This is the CD of Wanfa Temple. Wanshou Palace 1400, including cassock. Regardless of the relationship between teachers and students and the pending orders of the temple, only discs are distributed. If you choose Jingming, I suggest you handle it online. My friend ran 500, but now 500 can't do it, and 800 is almost the same. No instruments, no cassock. When you get the disc, you are the recording Taoist of the Taoist Association where the transmission is located.

However, the above two monks are not recognized by the state. If they need to be recognized by the state, they must apply for a teaching permit because it is quite difficult. I just want to talk. It takes three years to apply for a teaching position (that is, to live in a temple, because applications for fire residence are not accepted). The Taoist temple where a Taoist lives is applied for by a Taoist association at the next higher level, which will take photos and register it, and then submit it to the Taoist association at the next higher level, which will handle it, and then submit it to the Religious Affairs Bureau for the record. Because of the cumbersome procedures, it takes more than a year. Taoists who live in fire houses can only apply if they are affiliated with a temple, and the Taoist Association is very strict in applying for a teaching certificate without a religious bureau, so I only talk about national registered Taoists in this paragraph.

Besides, what's so hard about a layman becoming a monk? You know, the life of a monk is very boring. He gets up at 4: 30 every morning to prepare for the morning class, and he still needs to pay money. Temples with many disciples are better, and those with few are paid almost every day, and the monthly fee is very small. Besides, do you have the heart to become a monk when your parents are here? I hope the layman will think it over.

Immortal Taoism gives birth to infinite people.

Question 3: Becoming a monk? What are the conditions! Where is the easiest place to go? Become a monk and go to an ordinary small temple. Most ordinary small temples are descendants' temples, and they are qualified to accept disciples. Most of the big Taoist temples are ten-square jungles, and those who can't receive apprentices can only accept formal Taoist orders. Wudang Mountain is currently a temple system and a view of the avenue. You can try, but it may not be acceptable to you. You'd better look for the temple of descendants on the spot and consult the local Taoist association. Wish you all the best. Long life is boundless!

Question 4: What are the requirements for becoming a monk? At present, in Chinese mainland, Taoism is divided into two major factions, namely Quanzhen Sect in the north (founded by Wang Zhongyang and developed by Quanzhen Qizi) and Zhengyi Sect in the south (founded by Zhang Ling Shi Tian). Quanzhen Taoist priests need to become monks, just like monks; Those who belong to the orthodox school can get married and have children, practice at home, and don't abstain from meat except during lent.

Question 6: How to become a monk? 20 people can have faith, but they also have to live a real life. I'm a Buddhist fellow, but I don't teach, I only know science, Xiu De. In all religions, there will always be too many things in form, too many things in fame and fortune, and there will be problems such as power and gangs. The main function of religion is to give people a sustenance and a comfort. If the depth of field is bound by religion, isn't it just the opposite? What you said is life, there is nothing wrong or right. What is Tao? I didn't make it clear in a thousand words, and people didn't make it clear after thousands of years. You don't have to worry about what it is. Before people die, everything is changeable and everything is unknown. You said you suddenly knew what the real Tao was. It was just a name. That's just your idea, not the real Tao. It should be noted that "Tao can be Tao, but it is not constant;" The name can be named, but it is not a constant name. " (Tao can be said to be extraordinary; The name can be named. It's very famous. You have subverted the first sentence of Tao Te Ching with this sentence. Let me tell you what Tao is. I feel like fate in the dark, the law in the dark. Everything in the world is ever-changing, but the laws of nature have always dominated us, and we cannot escape from this circle and this law. A word of advice: do what you should do, do what you should do. Go to work when you can, start a family when you can get married, be filial to your parents and elders, love your wife and children, help others when you have the ability, do good when you are kind, do business when you have the strength, and study when you have time. The more you look for the Tao, the less you can find it. With the enrichment of your life, it will gradually emerge. Life is beautiful, and your road is complete.

Question 7: What is the process of becoming a monk today? Whatever the reason, if you want to become a monk, it means that your good roots are deep. I'll go with you! Amitabha! If you want to become a monk, you must first understand what it means to become a monk. Are you a monk or a monk? Generally speaking, I think so. There are actually four kinds of becoming a monk: 1. If you can't have a heart, you just study Buddhism at home. 2, I can't get out of my heart, that is to say, although I am a monk, I still can't seek fame and gain. 3. Being physically and mentally present is the real yogi. 4. I can't get out physically and mentally. Although I study Buddhism at home, I am greedy for fame and fortune, which is hard to let go. Therefore, in Buddhism, becoming a monk means being physically and mentally present. Generally speaking, becoming a monk is a real monk. If you really want to become a monk, there are many Buddhists, and wherever you go, everyone will happily accept you. For the sake of prudence, you'd better choose a temple, be a layman for a period of time, experience the life of a monk and see if you can adapt; At the same time, take some time to get to know Master better, solve the problems that may arise after becoming a monk before becoming a monk, and avoid any trouble after becoming a monk. Amitabha!

Question 8: What are the conditions for me to become a monk, and what are the ways to consult in Taoist temple? See if there is any Taoist truth. Why do you have this idea? Just to find the true meaning of life. This is not just a question of Taoist priests. Many real overhaul walkers are actually what the family calls "the big ones are hidden in the DPRK, the middle ones are hidden in the city, and the small ones are hidden in the wild". You don't have to be a monk. Master may be by your side. If the heart faces the Tao, it is the same practice everywhere. The so-called building a house is based on human feelings, and there are no horses and chariots. If it is only because of setbacks in life, you can choose to become a monk, think about it, or consult a psychologist.

Question 9: Conditions for becoming a monk I wonder why you want to be a Taoist. If you really want to, go to the local religious bureau or Taoist association to find out the situation (which must be recommended by them), and then after studying in the religious college, you can be assigned to a regular Taoist temple to be a Taoist. Being in charge now has nothing to do with getting married or not. Besides, to be honest, if you think the road is quiet now, you are wrong. You'd better know the details before you make a decision.
