About Celibate monks

In the context of Dharma, celibate monks are individuals who have voluntarily renounced romantic and sexual relationships as part of their commitment to spiritual practice and the pursuit of enlightenment. Celibacy is seen as a way to eliminate distractions and attachments that may hinder spiritual progress. These monks dedicate themselves fully to meditation, study of scriptures, and service to the community (Sangha). By observing celibacy, they strive to cultivate purity of mind and maintain ethical integrity, embodying the principles of non-attachment and discipline central to Buddhist teachings.
