i dont think he is a monk but there r different kinds of monks and ordinary monks cant supposed to be exorcists so i think he's an exorcist and not a monk.

i dont know *shrugs* oh well just posting for some gold
but i have to wonder why miroku is a monk question

well one reason could be it's useful to say that theres a evil spirit over the best inn in town so he can stay the night free.

Well regular monks also don't hit on wemon constintly though besides him I've never seen a monk with hair unless they were a girl. Plus if he's trying to get a wife why the heck would he shave his head it would look ugly.

Miroku has hair because he's only a Buddhist monk in the fact that he grew up at a temple and he does have heightened spiritual awareness. But that may have to do with the Wind Tunnel. I think he just says he's a monk because it's a good way to get pretty much anything he needs, and also, his prayer beads would look rather out of place with any other clothing from that era.

I think the fact that Miroku has Buddist prayer beads on his wrist, and he occasionally makes references to buddah, and the fact that there's a statue of Kannon in the temple he was raised in makes me about one hundred percent sure he's Buddist. And that he's been called a monk many times throught the series kind of confirms my suspicions that he's a monk.

During that era Monks really didn't follow the rules, most of them married and had kids, stopped being vegitarian, etc. So why would he bother shaving his head? Although I heard somewhere that his hairstyle was acceptable durring that era.

he was raised differently and if they shaved his head it juz wouldnt look rite for him lol so they had to change it up a bit

i don't think he was raised in a temple because on the episode where his teacher was dying it wasn't a temple they visited but a home instead?

No it's a temple, you can see Kannon, the Budddist goddess of mercy, in the background when they're cleaning the temple. Or maybe it's the second movie. I don't remember which but it's definitely a temple. The home you saw was just the living quarters which are still on temple grounds.
