Question

Q: Who donated the land for viharas?
Q: Who provided food to the Monks in Monasteries?

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Many monks and nuns realised that they needed permanent shelters and so monasteries known as viharas were built out of either rock or wood. The land on which a vihara was built was usually donated by a rich landlord or a king. The local people came with clothes, food, and other gifts to learn from the monks.

2) Depending on the tradition and the strictness of observation, monastics may eat only one meal a day, provided either by direct donations of food from lay supporters, or from a monastery kitchen that is stocked (and possibly staffed) by lay supporters.
