To become a monk, you need to rely on a teacher who knows the precepts. Under his guidance, you can cultivate your family's personality, establish a correct view and become a qualified instrument. But now that we are monks, most of the masters don't understand the precepts and can't educate their disciples like Dharma. Even some masters shave their disciples just to get help, and don't care about their Buddhism, body and wisdom at all. In fact, it is easy to mobilize the original secular heart if you enter the business immediately after becoming a monk. In the end, either returning to society or playing secular ideas in the monk group is nothing more than these two results.

For the growth of monks, the most important thing is the guidance of good knowledge and the same growth environment as the law. Why are there so many problems in the teaching profession? Why is it getting worse? The reason is that the environment is like this.

If we don't carry out rectification from the big environment, what we can do by just a few people and temples is very limited. Many times, it is difficult to produce much effect on our own. The popularization of Buddhism must rely on popularization and legalization. In the past, people attached great importance to the role of eminent monks. However, I think that if we rely solely on eminent monks, the guiding ideology will be biased.

When the Buddha passed away, he did not hand over the leadership of the monk group to Ye Jia, Ananda and other great disciples, but handed it over to the law and discipline, requiring disciples to learn from precepts, which is of great significance.

Therefore, the abbot and promotion of Buddhism depend on the masses, the rule of law and good knowledge. Only in this way can Buddhism achieve the overall healthy development. The role that can be brought to Buddhism only by relying on a certain monk and virtue is temporary and regional. We can see that the prosperity of Buddhism in history is often biased towards a period and a region. The reason is that people rely on the strength of monks rather than the masses.
