How to find out whether a monk is true or not?

A: Share the following methods to distinguish between true and false monks:

1. The one with the scar on his head must be a real monk. But there are also many people who don't point scars. A fake monk like Xiang Hua has no scars on his head.

2. The one who wears a robe above and jeans below must be a fake monk. Monk shoes are generally worn, but some people wear sports shoes, which is not necessarily the case.

The fake monk must have caught you asking for money, for whatever reason.

The fortune teller must be a fake monk, and monks are not allowed.

People who sell things in the temple can't tell the truth from the false. Some monasteries have been commercialized too much, and there is nothing the monks can do for policy reasons.

6. The person who wears patchwork clothes is a real monk, that is, the kind that is sewn with very torn cloth. Actually, few people wear it. I heard that people in Haicheng and Dabei Temple wear them. A fake monk like the fragrant flower monk usually doesn't even wear a frock.

7. A real monk usually doesn't talk to you, and he walks very fast, because he usually doesn't come out, and when he comes out, there are people around him. It feels really bad.

8. A real monk will never tell you that you are predestined friends with Buddha, which is stupid for a monk. Because if you really have nothing to do with Buddha, you can't even hear the word Buddha or see a monk. Xianghua monk set up an altar at home, never became a monk, not a monk.

9. Most of the people who have been holding rosary mouths in their hands are real monks, and most of them are practicing Tibetan. So do some people who practice at home.

10. Most monks don't practice martial arts, because fighting with people is not allowed in the precepts.

1 1. In fact, there are few fake monks near the famous temples or temples of the holy mountain, because they are easy to be found.

12. A real monk has a decree.

13. Real monks can't imitate Taoist rituals, and all monks who imitate Taoist rituals are fake monks.

Special reminder:

Most of the merit boxes of famous temple attractions do not belong to the monk group, but are basically divided by the tourism bureau and the contractor of the scenic spot, especially in places where incense is particularly prosperous.

Besides, don't burn high incense. It's silly.

If you want to offer Buddha, it is a very good behavior to put a Buddha statue in a quiet place at home and light a lamp or a bowl of water every day, which has great merit.
