Even the princess is willing to marry, and her wealth far exceeds that of the princess. Why is the status of Japanese monks so high?

When it comes to monks, we always think of words like abstinence. Monks in China have strict rules not to eat meat or get married, and there are many commandments to be observed. Compared with the monks in China, the life of Japanese monks is obviously much more comfortable, and many people even think that Japanese monks are nothing like monks.

Monks in China have basically lived in temples all their lives, but Japanese monks have a very colorful life. They can not only get married and have children, but also become singers, open nightclubs and even become makeup artists. This has become a habit of Japanese society. We think that disciplined monks have a much richer life than ordinary people.

Japanese monks can get married and have children, which is very popular with Japanese women. Even the princess once married a monk. Many people will feel incredible when they see this place, but in fact, it is not a loss for a Japanese princess to marry a monk. Japanese monks have a high status.

How high is the status of monks in Japan that even the princess is willing to marry?

Japanese monks don't have so many taboos, which originated from Japanese tradition. Japanese Buddhism has always flourished. An emperor meant to suppress Buddhism, so he allowed monks to get married and have children, drink and eat meat. But I didn't expect Buddhism to flourish, but these regulations have been handed down, so Japanese monks are now very free, and basically ordinary people can do whatever they want.

In Japan, the status of monks is still relatively high. Some people think it's a pity for a princess to marry a monk, but in fact, this is already a good object for a Japanese princess to marry. The Japanese royal family actually has no power, even nothing in property. The income of the Japanese royal family depends on government grants. As long as the princess marries, she will break away from the royal family and become a commoner. Only when you get married will you get a subsidy, about several million RMB, which is not much for the princess.

Compared with the princess, Japanese monks are very rich. Of course, it varies from person to person. Not every Japanese monk has a high status, but Japanese shrines are private property and can be passed on to the next generation. Therefore, many Japanese monks are rich second generation, especially some shrines have a long history and more wealth. The monk married by the princess is such a rich second generation monk.

Princess Noriko's husband is a descendant. This family belongs to a famous family in Japan, who controls Izumo Society, the most famous shrine in Japan. This is a family of monks respected by local people. Over the years, the shrine has accumulated a lot of wealth. Although he is a monk, he can actually be said to be a local super rich.

As a big Buddhist country, most people in Japan believe in Buddhism, and monks are naturally respected in the local area. In addition, Buddhism has a very strong income-generating ability, not only has the right to inherit property, but also the cemeteries in Japan are sold by Buddhism, which is also a lot of income. In addition, Japanese temples often run homestay business, which naturally makes Japanese monks have high status and money. What do you think of this?
