One of many, you don’t need to be a Buddhist to stay at the Buddhist
temples. There is no obligation, no one force to become a Buddhist. Monks
are now day become more sublet, in olden days they were known to be -- a norm- sons
of wealthy families become monk, they
brings with properties, monks were very well connect or well tuned all these village towns people's life whose who, in that was one way
they increase their wealth, now days no one do that so monks have to more creative that areas. Hey, nowadays
no one become a monk unless you are well
sort of crazy… recent decades Buddhism’s
has been incredible transformation, revolution
went thought --as a traditional oriental religion to westernization, they have been tapping on Westerner’s mind and
soul, they have money, you know when your take care of basics so human life
human are became very adventurous, that is where monk's innovation start, a monk’s
niche market. Amazing nowadays all the westerners filled Asian temples as if they
are the original forbears of Buddhism, they have more better knowledge of Buddhism
than most of Asian. The Asian are more toward western religion i.e. Christianity. In Korean
for example, its perception of Buddhism is poor people’s religion and Christianity
is rich or more civilised religion, in western society opposite way. Anyway make an endless long story short, lots of western people(now day even Asian too) suffering from obesity because of the all the nice junk food see below a traditional
temple food.

As you can see very small for monks, baby food in normal
city life that is acutely what human need - well most monks are suffer from lack
of calcium or other minerals because of their
frugal deprived diet- for normal people “temple stay” would be a little different, so people would staving first few
days but after few day your brain tells Is OK for small quantity then you are
in business. Deprived your sensuality of food, you will lose incredible
amount of weight in very short period of time!
Update: very simple rational of losing weight is; you eat less than < what your body needs calories.
