Asceticism ([əˈsɛtɪsɪzəm] from the [Wiktionary: ἄσκησις, ἄσκησις] áskesis, "exercise" or "training") is a lifestyle characterized by abstinence from worldly pleasures, often for the purpose of pursuing spiritual goals. Ascetics may withdraw from the world for their practices or continue to be part of their society, but typically adopt a frugal lifestyle, characterised by the renunciation of material possessions and physical pleasures, and time spent fasting while concentrating on the practice of religion or reflection upon spiritual matters. The practitioners of these religions eschewed worldly pleasures and led an abstinent lifestyle, in the pursuit of redemption, salvation or spirituality. The Catholic Church historically observes the disciplines of fasting and abstinence at various times each year. A monk ([mʌŋk], from μοναχός, monachos, "single, solitary" and Latin monachus) is a person who practices religious asceticism by monastic living, either alone or with any number of other monks.
