Correcto

• 这座千年古寺至今仍有数十位僧人在此修行，他们每日按照严格的寺规作息，诵经坐禅，不问世事。(This thousand-year-old ancient temple still houses dozens of monks in practice today; they follow the strict monastic schedule each day, chanting sutras and sitting in meditation, undisturbed by worldly affairs.)
• 文献记载，古代丝绸之路上往来频繁的僧人不仅传播了佛教教义，更促进了不同文明之间在艺术、科学与哲学层面的深度交流。(Historical records show that monks who travelled frequently on the ancient Silk Road not only propagated Buddhist teachings but also facilitated profound exchanges in art, science, and philosophy between different civilisations.)

Incorrecto

• 他有一种僧人性格 — 僧人 refers to a literal monastic, not a personality type; use 性格淡泊 or 心如止水 to describe a monk-like temperament without implying monastic vows
