Farming by day and practicing asceticism by night is the method the method that working is done or doctrines are preached during the daytime and asceticism is done at night as the tradition tha has been around from Chinese Tiantai Buddhism in the past. Supreme Patriarch Sangwol Wongak and his followers practiced farming by day and practicing asceticism as they did hard works like building the temple and repairing roads during the daytime and devoted themselves to do Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva continuously at night after registering the religious group.

The temples of Tiantai Buddhism are located in the downtown areas that you can go by public transportation, not the heart of mountains. They have several requirements for good places for the persons who cultivate themselves morally or religiously and Buddhists. Like this, the characteristics of the temples of Tiantai Buddhism are the asceticism community that the persons who cultivate themselves morally or religiously and the persons who became Buddhist monks practice asceticism at the same place by getting rid of limited access to the temples and opening asceticism space to all of them.

The temples of Tiantai Buddhism that become the asceticism places for the four classes of the persons who follow Buddha's teachings, farming by day and practicing asceticism by night, and oneness of monks and believers(승속일체) realizes the realities of popular Buddhism suitable for modern times and are thought to implement the propagation policy that suits the time.

This open policy could make the public participate in all kinds of events as well as Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva and Vassa for a month actively and became the driving force and foundation that Tiantai Buddhism could continue to grow.
