monasticism

Monasticism is the quest for union with God, through prayer, penance and separation from the world, pursued by men sharing a communal life in religious or contemplative seclusion. They seem to grow holy together, drawing upon one another's virtues to combat their own weaknesses.

The monastery itself frequently became the center for spiritual inspiration and guidance throughout its area as the sanctity of its members became known. Theology, philosophy, art, architecture music, science, history, all were marked and some were reshaped by the contributions of the monks. Together they assisted in the growth and protection of the church.
