[quote=RAINDROP,470883] Wan, it depends on what kind of Buddhism he belives in. Monks in Southern Asian countries are allowed to get married. But monks in China can not get married because they have rules to follow. I tried to search for information but just found it. There are five rules for Buddhist followers: No.1 they can't kill anything even just an insect. No.2 they can't be thieves. No.3 they have to be against venery. No.4 they can't tell a lie. No.5 they can't drink liquor and eat meat. I just translated from its Chinese version. The general idea is correct. Thus, monks can not get married because they have to be against venery. However, they can marry someone when they are not monks any more.[/quote]
