Can people in their fifties be nuns? My father's death made me see the fame and fortune in the world clearly, so I want to become a monk and praise my Buddha's compassion, without desire or desire.

Of course. Buddhism stipulates that you can become a monk before the age of 70.

However, becoming a monk in old age is not easy. Over 50 years old, temples are not easy to accept, depending on fate and opportunities. This is determined by the realistic conditions of temples today. On the one hand, all kinds of temple affairs need young people to do. In both cases, young people are flexible and suitable for professional practice, while the acceptance of the elderly is weakened. Three.

It is suggested to volunteer in the temple, so that more people will know and have more opportunities.
