Which monastic order is the best? There is a Trappist monastery on the Dutch island of Schiermonnikoog, I think I might go there to see if it's good
The island is literally named after monks who lived there in the middle ages: schiermonnikoog means grey monks island

>>43030656My radical take is that monastic separation from society takes you further from the divine and towards yourself. The goal should be the revelation of divinity in mundane life, not escape from mundanity into divinity, which is impossible for waking meat before its time. You’ll make some progress of course, but you’ll get hardstuck unless you had a long prodrome outside the monastery, 40-50 years or something.
>>43030787>>43030806I just want out. This normie society has no use for me. I want to lead the spiritual lifeThe trappists seem cool and they allow beer
There is also a benedictine monastery I think I have to visit. I am not quite sure about the difference between benedictines and trappists. It seems trappists are a spin off from the benedictines and they wanted to return to a strict observance of the Rule of Benedict of Nursia.
>>43030656The Great Schema
If I were a Christian I'd unironically become a priest or a monk
>>43030656You are asking on the worse posible place. Go to church first idiot.
