Why did Jia Baoyu become a monk instead of a Taoist priest?

There is a comment on writing on the 25th, which is very important and I have to say. Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng were killed by Ma Daopo's witchcraft, and when their lives were dying, the lame monk and the lame monk came to the rescue together, which is often said in the novel. At this time, the comment on writing cloud:

Jia Xu's double-line criticism: Monks are because of Xifeng, while Taoists are because of Baoyu.

This comment on writing makes it very clear that the monk came to save Wang Xifeng and the lame Taoist came to save Jia Baoyu. Although a monk came together, the division of responsibilities was very clear and there was no confusion at all.

This is a key point to understand Buddhism and Taoism in A Dream of Red Mansions. When we read the novel carefully, whether a monk appears alone or together, there is actually a division of labor. Specifically, monks are responsible for the degree of female donors, while Taoist priests are responsible for the degree of male donors. See for yourself if you don't believe me

It was a monk who told Zhen Yinshi to win Zhen Lian to me. Zhen was doomed, but later a Taoist turned Zhen Yinshi into a good singer. It was also monks who transformed Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, and Taoist priests who transformed Liu Xianglian.

This problem has been discussed before. However, there is a problem. Is Jia Baoyu a man? Why did you just give up the cliff and become a monk? Theoretically, Jia Baoyu should be a Taoist, and Jia Baoyu should be a Taoist like Liu Xianglian. How can he be a monk? I don't know who transformed Jia Baoyu because of the missing post-80s part, but judging from the monk, it should be the monk who transformed Jia Baoyu. This is not chaos, but chaos.

However, if you think about it carefully, it seems that you should understand it like this:

First, Jia Baoyu became a monk not for unrequited love, but for love;

Second, Lin Daiyu and a bunch of girls were demoted by monks;

Third, so Jia Baoyu became a monk to follow. Life after life, life after life, this is what Zhi Yanzhai said in his comment on writing: the old spirit on the Sansheng stone.

This judgment should be proved in novels, and examples abound. I told Lin Daiyu that I would become a monk if you died, and xiren also told me that I would become a monk if you died. Since the girls are monks, Jia Baoyu, who will never leave in this life or in the afterlife, must also become a monk and accompany those girls. Therefore, Jia Baoyu, a monk, is still a feeling monk.

I think this is the real reason why Jia Baoyu is different from Zhen and Zhen. He became a monk instead of a Taoist.
