So I've begun to pretty earnestly start pondering this. Do you have any thoughts / insights?

monastery will probably make you a more interesting person. if you can negotiate down to lower than 2 years that would probably make it feel lower-stakes. i did a 3-month minimum with an option to continue that i didn't take

What sort of obligations / options for study paths were given to you and how were these made known to you beforehand? Also, what sort of monastery (religion/sect) was it?
