Monks in anime: Ushio and Tora

 https://ww5.dubbedanime.net/episode/157473-ushio-and-tora-episode-10-english-sub - beginning to 1:48

     There are several monks and/or priests in the anime Ushio and Tora, but the one that I am focusing on, 

which is also the one the monks in anime link focuses on (it mentions one other one, but I don't really 

remember him), is known as the head priest, who is introduced in the video for this reflection.  While the 

head priest was away, the other priests decided to do what they wanted to do based on their own interests, 

which didn't work out for them.  When the head priest returned, he talked to the other priests about what 

they did and also needed to do based on what was happening after consulting with someone who 

understood what was happening.  When making decisions, especially decisions that influence other 

people, not just yourself, it's best to be well informed as possible in order to form the best solution.  The 

best solution may not be the one you want, but it's definitely the one you need.
