Best Answer

the daily activities of a Benedictine monk is "physical labor for several hours a day because idleness was "the enemy of the soul." at the very heart of community practice was prayer, the proper "work of god." monks ate,slept,worked, and worshiped together. each monk owned property, and that enabled it to be a self-sustaining community isolated from and independent of the world surrounding it." also monks had to fulfill their vow of poverty.
