Buddhism is behind closed doors, but it's not what you think. You don't eat or drink. Even in meditation, if you don't have deep kung fu, I'm afraid you need to eat and drink.

The purpose of retreat is to break the influence of external factors and improve practice. For example, reading the Tripitaka, chanting Buddha, participating in meditation and so on. Get rid of external influences and devote yourself to practice. Therefore, when we are closed, we still have to eat and sleep. Of course, if you practice some kung fu, such as meditation and meditation, and you are so ignorant of Buddhism, you don't need to eat or drink.
