Three Methods for AWAKENING - The story of the Zen Master Jinul who unified Korean Buddhism

We visited Jogyesa Tample in #seoul #korea - the principle monastery of the Jogye order of Korean Buddhism.

The Jogye order was established by the #Zen (Seon) mater Boo Choo Jinul who was the unifier of Korean Buddhism after it fell into decline in the 12th Century.

Jinul taught three methods for the realisation of the unborn nature. Here I give a brief account of his life story and the history of the Jogye Order of Korean Seon (Zen) #buddhisminteluguquotes
