I was looking into becoming a taoist monk, since tai chi and meditation are already a large part of my life. I have some more reading to do on hindu monks .....would it be possible to do five year + eccuments? For example, work for my food, go into poverty,etc. and fully emmerse myself as a hinu monk for about five years, then backpack to another temple and become a monk there to learn their wisdom for five years or so, etc. Connection with my spirit and our energy is of crucial importance, I then wish to mend spirit with that of natures and what connects us all and share it. As for being a christian monk....I have absolutely no desire, though I believe in God and Jesus I have grown up in the religions of christianity and catholisism and have taken all that I can from them. Advice is welcomed, sudjestions on some good unbiased books or preferably short readings on this subject that could help me as well, I still have much research to do, thankyou=]
