4.21
He oversees the incense and lamps in the various halls, constantly wiping away dust and keeping the altars strictly clean. If wind arises, he must extinguish the burning incense in the burners, tie up the ends of the banners, and guard them so they do not come near the lamps and candles. Incense money from donors must not be used for other purposes. On the Buddha's birthday, he bathes the Buddha, boils spiced water, and offers it to the assembly. On the four fasting days, he opens the hall doors to facilitate visitors coming and going to gaze in reverence and make prostrations.
