Do monks have hobbies

There are probably people who have hobbies and people who don't.
I may not be a hobby, but I watch TV and watch the internet.
Maybe using this site is also a hobby?
It's probably better to use that time for training.
I'm an unserious monk, so I spend my time on my hobbies.

There are all kinds of people, even monks. I also have various hobbies.

I think there are differences between men and women. Music, cars, motorbikes, marathons, weight training, reading, karaoke, cooking, fashion, etc.

It's probably no different from the general public.

　I think it's an interesting and incisive question.
In other words, even though you have “something to do,” there are times when the “worry” of “I want to do that hobby” comes up, and you can't do “what you need to do”? I think that's the point.
When I hear this... it makes me want to be a boy.

“No matter what you do, it will fertilize the monk”! There are fun things, and there are also things that are DULL (lazy).
in my case...
① Photos. When I look at the printed thing again, I can see the difference between the scenery I “thought” and what was recorded (objectively) by a machine, which is interesting.
② DIVING In the ocean, the weak eat the strong. Everyone is doing something “to live.” I always think, “Oh, living is desperate, hard work.”
③ Camping When I go into nature from Tokyo, where I always live, the sound is completely different. The heat of the fire is different. The color of the sky is different. You'll be able to see things you wouldn't normally see.
④ PC Assembly Back in my day, “self-made machines” were rare. I bought the parts and was excited to assemble them myself. This is a typical example of “everything works well and becomes one.”
⑤ Fish breeding. They talk a lot, but I just don't know. “Yes, I don't know.” Then I notice my own unreasonable thoughts.
⑥ Raising children. It tells me, “Time solves a lot of things, doesn't it?”

ah, that's fun. No matter what kind of experience you have, if it's something you've done, it's a “boy's fertilizer,” including hardships (laughing stories).

My name is Kameyama Junshi.
There is a saying “if the water is clean, fish won't live” as a story idiom. Everyone has different hobbies or not, but if you live too far away from the world, people probably won't be close to you. The idea of nirvana in Mahayana Buddhism is also nirvana where there is no residence. This refers to nirvana who does not live in complete nirvana and does not stay in a troubled and lost world. As to why this kind of thought was born, according to the “Iwanami Buddhist Dictionary,” “it is impossible to save many troubled people (sentient beings) by staying in complete nirvana, and since you are bound by the worries of life and death, you can't help yourself, it is said that nirvana who has escaped life and death saves sentient beings without staying in the world of life and death. It is a word born against the backdrop of the practice of Bodhisattva in Mahayana Buddhism, where bodhisattvas are active in the sentient world with great sorrow.” It has been explained.
So, having a hobby is getting involved in the world, and I think that is very important for interacting with people.
By the way, my hobbies are listening to music, computers, and reading a little bit.

Hello. ('▽｀*)
My name is Joe Satoshi Anikitange, a soul guitarist who plays the guitar with a loud voice until 10 minutes before I answered here, and when I noticed that my wife said “make the sound smaller” on LINE, it's not the guitar (true story), and I'm a soul guitarist who plays the guitar with heart and face. My favorite guitars are Les Paul, Schecter, and Moon, and my amplifiers are Marshall 80w.
I think humans can do anything.
I play on the guitar at the Candle Night event, and I am a Biwa Dharma practitioner who mixes guitar and Dharma stories.
It's a hobby that you practice, so it's not a hindrance.
There is no ascetic practice that is typical of ascetic practice, and no matter what you practice, you do it without harboring private opinions or personal opinions into it.

I'm a gamer Osho. We have a wide selection of miniature gardens, strategy/tactical strategies, adventures, FPS, action RPGs, etc. It's part of the job for monks to make sure that no one is at the temple as much as possible, so it would be helpful if they had even one indoor hobby. If you're indoors, you won't be slapped in the back, so you don't have to worry.
Depending on the thing, they uploaded strategy videos, participated in editing the strategy wiki, and even did introductory multiplayer courses. I guess it's nature to send something out.

My outdoor hobby is skiing, and my intermediate hobby is shichirin. “It's peaceful. If you spend 4 or 5 hours leisurely having lunch (including cleaning up preparations) while thinking “I wish these peaceful days would continue forever,” you will be healed. huh? a hindrance to training? Cooking is also an ascetic practice in Zen Buddhism (laughs)

Maybe it's a “hobby”
Do you think it's “evil” that goes away from “annoyance”?

I think there are a lot of people,
In my case, my time as a hobby is “self-care.”

In order to show people the way, you must first be saved.
If you want to heal people's sorrows,
How have I healed my sorrow?
First, it is necessary to ask the question.

Drinking alcohol and talking with friends
Raising the level of “Dragon Quest”
I also look forward to reading “Kinnikuman” every week
It is necessary for me to practice Buddhism,
I will continue to do so in order to explain it to people.

It's my hobby.
