Benedictines follow the Rule, which St. Benedict wrote for monks early in the 6th century:
Preferring nothing whatever to Christ (RB 4:21), seeking to live the Gospel in a radical way, they are gathered in community, committed to the brotherhood by a promise of stability in chaste love and led in the way of conversion by the guidance of a superior to whom they promise obedience.
Living in an atmosphere of silence, seeking to be constantly attentive to God’s presence, the monks strive to create a harmonious balance between prayer and work.
