In most religions the life inside monasteries is governed by community rules that stipulate the gender of the inhabitants and require
them to remain celibate and own little or no personal property. The degree 36 life inside a particular monastery is socially separate
from the surrounding populace can also vary widely. Some religious traditions mandate 37 for purposes of contemplation
removed from the everyday world, in which case members of the monastic community may spend most of their time isolated even from
each other. 38 focus on interacting with the local communities to provide services, such as teaching, medical care, or evangelism. The life within the walls of a monastery may be supported in several ways: by manufacturing and selling goods, by donations or alms, by rental or investment incomes, and by funds from other organizations within the religion. There has been a long tradition of Christian
39 providing hospitable, charitable and hospital services. Monasteries have often been associated with the 40 of
education and the encouragement of scholarship and research, which has led to the establishment of schools and colleges and the
association with universities. Christian monastic life has adapted to modern society by offering computer services, accounting services and
management as well as modern hospital and educational administration.
