Buddhist monks beg for alms in order to make good connections and save the world. The Buddha stipulated that monks beg for alms, interact with people, bless them, and allow ordinary people to plant the good roots of Buddhism. In modern times, begging on the streets has become synonymous with money. Begging for alms is considered to be a way of exchanging money. In crowded markets or residential areas, when you see monks soliciting or begging, you cannot tell whether they are real. Do they care for and educate the public with Buddhism? Do they purify people's hearts and society with Buddhism?
