Зачем нужны монахи Шаолинь? Могут ли использоваться государством как армия? Они потеряны для своих семей, для общества? Если они не могут заниматься сексом, то они никак не влияют на демографисескую ситуацию в стране? Они покинули свои семьи и никак не помогают родителям, сёстрам и братьям, т.е. бросили семьи ради чего?
Здравствуйте!
Спасибо за ваш комментарий и интерес к теме монахов Шаолиня. Позвольте ответить на ваши вопросы и развеять некоторые мифы.
### Зачем нужны монахи Шаолинь?
Монахи Шаолиня играют важную роль в сохранении и передаче культурного наследия Китая. Они практикуют и обучают искусству кунг-фу, которое включает не только боевые навыки, но и философию, медитацию, самодисциплину и духовное развитие.
### Могут ли монахи использоваться государством как армия?
Монахи Шаолиня не являются армией и не используются государством в военных целях. Их основная задача — духовное и физическое совершенствование, а также обучение других.
### Потеряны ли они для своих семей и общества?
Монахи Шаолиня не потеряны для своих семей и общества. Хотя они живут в монастыре и соблюдают обет безбрачия, они поддерживают связь с родными и участвуют в благотворительных проектах, помогая местным жителям.
### Влияние на демографическую ситуацию
Из-за обета безбрачия монахи Шаолиня действительно не влияют на демографическую ситуацию, но их число относительно невелико по сравнению с общей численностью населения Китая.
### Оставление семей
Монахи Шаолиня выбирают путь духовного развития и отречения от мирской жизни. Это не означает, что они бросают свои семьи. Многие продолжают поддерживать связь с родными и помогают им, насколько это возможно.
Надеюсь, что этот ответ прояснил ваши вопросы. Если у вас есть дополнительные вопросы или комментарии, пожалуйста, не стесняйтесь задавать их!
