In the early 1990s, a Buddhist monk traveled to India on a spiritual pilgrimage. The monk’s experiences while in India became a source of inspiration and resolve for the monk, leading him to plant the seeds of social outreach that would benefit the struggling and underprivileged in India many times over. That monk was Venerable Pomnyun Sunim (법륜스님),* a Korean Seon (Zen) master and social activist who has since earned renown in his native South Korea and around the world for his insightful yet accessible Dharma instruction and for his far-reaching humanitarian activities and projects as a socially engaged Buddhist.
