Vulcan master

A Vulcan master (or Kolinahr master) is a religious position on the planet Vulcan similar to a monk.

Vulcan teenagers go to Vulcan masters to learn the ways of logic and how to suppress emotion. For example, Tuvok was sent to study under a Vulcan master when he was a teenager and had rebelled against Vulcan discipline. 

In 2368, Tuvok bought a meditation lamp from a Vulcan master, who charged double the price when he saw the Starfleet insignias of Tuvok and Janeway. 

Tom Paris condescendingly described Tuvok as "the Vulcan master" in 2374, and relished Harry Kim "putting him down a peg."

In 2376, Tuvok recalled witnessing a Vulcan master perform a variation of the Vulcan mind meld, known as the "Bridging of Minds". 

Vulcan masters also preside over kolinahr when a Vulcan wishes to purge him or herself of all emotion. T'Klass, a student of Surak, was one of the first kohlinar masters.
