What does the monk mean by master?

The correct spelling is "benefactor". The Sanskrit pronunciation of "benefactor" is Tuona Potbottom (where "Tuona" is a stone and "Potbottom" is the main), which is also called Pinyin: tán yuè (Van Da Na-Pati, Ba Da Na-Pati, sbin-bdag). That is to say, to send food and clothing to monks, or to invest in the holding of Buddhist meetings and other believers.

So don't donate. Is it a donor?

First of all, let's take a look at the five merits of donor Hui Shi:

(a) famous four far, all sigh;

(2) in the crowd, not ashamed and fearless;

(3) the audience admires and the audience is happy;

(four) after the end of life, or born in heaven, respected by heaven; Or among strangers, be respectable;

(5) Wisdom is far above all others, and it leaks out in appearance, and there is no posterity.

It can be seen that the name "benefactor" warns you to do five things: one is kindness, the other is kindness, the third is kindness, the fourth is timeliness, and the fifth is non-stop. Those monks call you "benefactor", and they don't necessarily ask you to give anything, just for your own good, reminding you that there are many blessings to get. As for whether you want these blessings or not, that's your business.

What needs to be added is that undertaker, who held the funeral ceremony, was also called a benefactor.
