In addition to the abbot, there are so many "positions" in the temple. Do you know them?

I saw a news about recruiting monks on the internet before, saying that I needed a master's degree or above. This request has hit many people. Although most people may just say that they want to become a monk, do you know that there are classifications of becoming a monk? Being a monk also has different orientations. If a temple is compared to a big company, then the abbot is the head of the company. In charge of everything in this temple, many important decisions need the approval of the abbot before they can be implemented. This is the role of leaders and decision makers. The abbot is also called the abbot in many movies and TV series. In fact, their positions are the same.

In addition to the abbot, there are many positions, such as professional night patrol personnel, similar to the current security guards, called "night patrol" in temples. In ancient times, there were no watches like this. These watches can tell the time directly. People need to tell the time. Therefore, the position responsible for telling the time is generally called "time" in temples.

Since it is a temple, there must be someone who is responsible for daily hygiene. Just like the labor committee in the school or the cleaning aunt in the company, the temple needs someone to clean it. However, in temples, the responsibility for hygiene needs to be divided very carefully. For example, there is a person who is responsible for cleaning the Buddhist temple and helping to clean the dust. This person is called "the temple owner". Responsible for the health and safety of other personnel.

There are also many positions similar to temple leaders, such as deputy temple, supervisor and supervisor, all of which are titles of leaders. Among them, the auxiliary temple is mainly responsible for financial management, such as the incense money we donate every day, and the daily expenses in the temple are managed by the auxiliary temple, similar to the current financial controller.
