Benedict+(Benedictine+Rule)

Benedict was a Christian monk noted for founding a monastery for Italian peasants in order to lure them away from worshipping the god, Apollo. He went on to establish Benedictine Rule, which stressed the importance of Christianity and urged a disciplined life through prayer and spiritual fullfilment.
