According to the Tathagata Dharma, a person who wants to become a monk must meet the following conditions in addition to sincere, respectful and correct beliefs:

1. With the consent of parents or guardians, go to the temple you think is predestined friends with the written materials, ID card, household registration certificate (issued by the police station) and physical examination certificate agreed by parents.

4. It has not violated the national laws (criminal) or involved in litigation (referring to those who are wanted by the police and released after serving their sentences, if there is a crime).

5. Not less than 7 years old and not more than 60 years old.

6. Mental soundness (refers to not suffering from any mental illness, such as neurasthenia, schizophrenia, epilepsy and other diseases that will make you lose your mind and lose your mind).

7, psychologically sound, normal (bisexual people can not become monks).

8. People who want to become monks must be voluntary, pious, patriotic, law-abiding (including no legal disputes) and get the permission of their parents. After finding out the origin of their identity, the temple decided that they met the conditions for becoming monks.

Not only the above, but also you can't become a monk if you violate the following:

1, serving official.

2. Any monk group is strictly prohibited or expelled.

3. Eliminate those who defame the Buddha.

4. People who eavesdrop on autumn sermons.

If you meet the above requirements and want to become a monk, go to the temple and become a monk, and let him be your master. After the master inspected you for being qualified, the master put forward the reason why the apprentice became a monk. After the temple agrees unanimously, you can be accepted as a disciple, and a series of monastic processes such as gradient, changing robes, changing common names and taking dharma numbers can be carried out.

Extended information Buddhism is a Buddhism founded by Sakyamuni Buddha. Disciples who study Buddhism can be divided into four categories, namely, men and women who become monks are loyal to each other at home, men who become monks are called monks, and women who become monks are called monks. That is, we usually call monks and nuns. However, at home, men and women are generally amateurs. They don't need to shave their hair, and they don't need to follow the rules of the temple. They usually live like ordinary people.

The motivation of becoming a monk should be pure, and you can't escape the law because you escape the law, or hide after doing bad things. You should have the spirit of giving up your life and forgetting your death, abandon worldly trifles, have a bodhisattva heart, and have the ability to undertake Tathagata's family business and be a lifelong mentor.

There is no requirement for culture, it doesn't matter if you don't value academic qualifications, and it doesn't matter if you can read or not. The most important thing is to have a heart that "can't bear the suffering of all people, can't bear the loss of the holy church, care about your own happiness, and only hope that all beings can get rid of their suffering."
