Ascetic Practices
Although the Buddha warned us about the dangers of extreme asceticism, some among the monastic community still perform these strict practices. Limiting the type of cloth they can wear, the food they can eat, or where they can live are some of the restrictions adopted by those who wish to walk this path. Although such abstemious behavior is not a requirement for obtaining merit, it has its own benefits for the practitioner.
