What is ordination, why do Buddhists take ordination are required? (Introduction to Buddhism)

What is ordination, why do Buddhists take ordination, and how many kinds of precepts are required? (Introduction to Buddhism) Precepts refer to the prohibition to prevent mistakes in the three karma of body, speech, and mind. It is a must for Buddhists to abide by. Therefore, Buddhists must take precepts when they become monks. Buddhist precepts are divided into five precepts, ten precepts, and complete precepts. The five precepts are not to kill, not to steal, not to commit adultery, not to lie, and not to drink alcohol, which must be observed by monks and lay disciples alike. The ten precepts are in addition to the five precepts, not to paint incense sticks, not to watch music and dance, not to sit on a high bed, not to eat out of season, and not to store gold and silver treasures. After Buddhists become ordained, those under the age of 20 must uphold the ten precepts, so that men can be called novices and women can be called novices. After reaching the age of 20, one must take the full ordination, also known as the great ordination. The full ordination is more stringent, with 250 bhikkhus and 348 bhikkhunis. After receiving the full ordination, Buddhists can obtain the qualifications of official monks and nuns. Men can be called bhikkhus, and women can be called bhikhunis. When preaching the precepts, only the four-fold precepts are generally declared on the precept altar, that is, no killing, no stealing, no sexual immorality, and no lying. Because Han monks and nuns believe in Mahayana Buddhism, according to the system of Mahayana Buddhism, in addition to ten precepts and full precepts, they also need to take bodhisattva precepts. When taking the Bodhisattva vows, burn the scar with incense on the top of the head. This custom has now been abolished. The monks of other ethnic groups did not have the custom of burning incense scars on their heads when they were ordained. ---------------------------------- Website: https://buddhist4u.com Buddhist4U Youtube Channel: 中文：https://bit.ly/3b97nUD English: https://bit.ly/2WRpbsc ----------------------------------
