I am from a country with lot's of monasteries, there purpose are the monks to stay as far away from civilization as possible and dedicate themselves to God so they do not give in to "sin".They live a very quiet life full of prayer.
The purpose of a monastery s to provide group living space and work space for monks or nuns.
