Monk business is to dealing with the dead.

 In America, you go to give them food, at those home, be around them with church.

Memorial service.

Its a sad event. Everyone encounter death, will feel troubles, sad, and hope to cope with .

That is why there is a church all around in America! 

Its you talk to someone, cry about it. When someone die, and pass away. 

They are human. they are mortal, they will reincarnate, that is all of every life, you try to inject something light inside them, when you can, its when you go talking to them like your parents want you to be priesthood.

Its to guide them, to lead them, to persuade them in life to become stronger and continue, no matter what.

Your parents did not raise you, so you can keep everything yourself.

Life coming and going all the time. New generation will arrive, and I hold them up....??
