Answers to Benedict Rule questions
4. Monasteries that kept to these rules were useful institutions because they were stable communities, as stated after the rules. They would provide a place for people of the same ideals to come together and follow the rules.
5. The Rule tells us that the social and economic structure of the time was stable, or well put together. If every monastery refelcted their society, it meant that religion went hand in hand with sociality and ecnonomics in that time.

Bhakti Poets
These poems were somewhat enjoyable. I liked them because they were simple, but had some meaning in them. They were also a bit easy to understand. I think these poems showed Indian society well because they higlighted the caste system and the values of religion that were so important to the ancient society. They showed how caste affects peoples lives. It also showed the importance of pleasing the gods.
