Because, the main method is the starting point of the java program and if we need an object of that class even before the main can be invoked, it is not possible. Hence it is declared static so that the JVM Can acess the main method without having to instantiate that particular class

Why main method is static?
Main method in java is always static as main method id the only method from where the program execution starts,and as we all know that main method is defined inside a class so JVM needs to make a object of the class to call the method and objects are build inside the main method ,so to execute the main method it has to make objects of the class but objects are build inside main method so that's the reason that main method is static so that JVM can execute the main method without making its object as static members can be called by class anme only

How do you call a method from inside the main method?
I assume the question is about Java. How you call a method from inside the main method depends on whether this is an instance method or a static method. To call an instance method, you need to have a valid instance. Say foo is an instance of class Foo, which was created inside the main method. Then to call the instance method implode() use foo.implode() To call the static method bar() of class Foo, use Foo.bar().

Why you use main method when you can use static method?
The main method is called by the jvm when your program is executed. The main method is a static method: public static void main(String[] args) {} A static method is method that can be run without instantiate the class (creating an object from it) The main method is a static method. No other static method could replace it's functionality. PS By static method do you mean static initialiser? I often use static initialisers instead of a main method, but in these cases you must still have a main method, albeit an empty one ie. public static void main(String[] args) {} Notice that the method has an empty body A main method must be used if you intend to accept parameters at run time from the jvm.
