The work of a abbot
First of all, the abbot needs to have noble moral quality and profound Buddhist attainments, and can set an example for believers and guide them to practice. Secondly, the abbot needs to have the ability of organization and management, and can effectively manage the affairs of temples and monks. In addition, the abbot also needs to have social skills and be able to maintain good relations with believers, the government and all walks of life.
In history, the duties and powers of the abbot are very important. They are not only the leaders of monasteries, but also the inheritors of Buddhist culture. In modern society, with the development of society and the change of Buddhism, the duties and powers of the abbot have also changed. But in any case, the abbot is one of the important representatives of Buddhist culture, and their existence and work play an irreplaceable role in maintaining Buddhist beliefs and inheriting Buddhist culture.
