There is a trend of "monasticism" among highly educated people. Why has monasticism suddenly become so popular?

In ancient times, there were still a lot of monks. With the progress of the times, the development of society, and the emancipation of ideas, few people believe in Buddhism anymore, and even fewer become monks, but there are some. There are many exceptions, but now it is more popular to become a monk with a high degree of education. Why is this? Commercialization

But now in this era of materialistic life, many temples have changed their taste and become more and more commercialized. They have begun to recruit highly educated people to serve as hosts and managers. The smell of fireworks

Many temples have also moved away from the strict rules and regulations, and have a little more smell of fireworks, which is why they have a prosperous and incense side. As the monks in the temple, they can naturally get a lot of income. Instead of going out to work, why not sit around in the temple, talk, and "pretend" to make money easily? Why not? Why? Why do some highly educated people choose to become monks?

The purpose of becoming a monk and practicing Buddhism is to cultivate blessings and wisdom, eliminate disasters and prolong life, escape suffering and gain happiness, and even end life and death and transcend the six paths to become a Buddha. After becoming a Buddha, come to Saha to save the destined people. Who are the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the world? The eminent monks who have attained enlightenment are the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. Their body is a human body and their mind is in the realm of Buddha. It turns out that Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are in the human world. Of course, there are countless Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who are not in the human world. Many people misunderstand and think that Buddha and Bodhisattva are not in the human world. This view needs to be corrected.

Is the pinnacle of science theology? The peak of human wisdom began to understand theology. Becoming a monk is a very good and bright path. Can these highly educated people take on the important task of Buddhism? You are still not qualified. Only a high degree of education is not enough. You must have a pioneering spirit and an innovative spirit to be competent.

Perhaps my level of Enxiang is not yet advanced, and I am not 100% determined to study theology and Buddhism. It is because the time has not come. Maybe I am not qualified to think about this noble profession.

To a certain extent, a high degree of education also means that the person has a high IQ, and Buddhism, which pays attention to morality, concentration, and wisdom, is itself a study of wisdom in a way, and it cannot be achieved unless a person with great wisdom can I understand that historically speaking, most of the eminent monks and famous monks in the past dynasties were erudite and knowledgeable people, and many of the Buddhist believers were high-ranking officials, dignitaries and even emperors. What attracted them was not the phrase "facilitating the rule of ignorant people". Therefore, it is not surprising that Kochi believes in Buddhism and becomes a monk, but it is a matter of course.

Those with higher academic qualifications are naturally smarter and wiser, and are generally more likely to understand that there is more suffering and less happiness in the world. Therefore, I can see through my troubles, become a monk, practice Buddhism, and hope to become a Buddha soon.
