Why does the monk Kumarajiva have 12 concubines?

Kumarajiva was forced to marry a concubine. At that time, his name was very famous. At that time, Kumarajiva was excellent. He was called a mage. At that time, someone spread him out and got the whole world. Because of this, people want to keep the children in Kumarajiva. People hoped that their descendants would have higher wisdom like Kumarajiva, but in desperation, Kumarajiva married a concubine.

In order to prove his loyalty to Buddhism and his faith. He even told people by swallowing needles that he was dedicated to the Buddha. After being forced to marry, he knew that his practice was broken because of women, but he never gave up his propaganda and love for Buddhism. He began to accept Buddhists' disciples so that Buddhism could be passed on.

Not only that, he also translated some books. He is talented and has been preaching Buddhism all his life. Maybe some people envy how many concubines he has married. But his loyalty to Buddhism never wavered. For him, it is undoubtedly a merit to sacrifice himself for people's wishes. There was once a fortune teller who said that Kumarajiva would become a Buddha. It's just that he has a peach blossom robbery, and women will break his practice, but even so, he has great virtue in the Buddha's heart.

His belief and persistence in Buddhism can be seen from his swallowing needles to his later accepting disciples and translating books. Later, before his death, Kumarajiva showed his loyalty to Buddhism. As for concubinage, nothing was expected by him. Everything was forced. After his death, his body was cremated. After his death, the books he translated became more precious books for Buddhists.
