Peace of mind found there Sanggyeonseongam Hermitage, Wolchulsan Mountain Most of the remaining hermitages are located off-limits. To reach them, one must cross the restricted area and delve deep into the rugged terrain. These hermitages have preserved their pristine purity as retreats, unspoiled by the world. The monks who bravely practice within these hermitages have chosen arduous loneliness to walk the path to enlightenment. Venerable Beomjong, who lives in solitary confinement with a single desire to practice Zen meditation without any desires, is one such example. Sanggyeonseongam Hermitage, located on Wolchulsan Mountain in Yeongam, is where Venerable Beomjong, who has severed ties with the secular world and practices Jangjwa Bulwa alone, lives with insects and wild animals as his companions. While it is the ultimate retreat, undisturbed by the serenity, Venerable Beomjong believes that the one thing we must ultimately guard against is ourselves. That's why it's said that wherever we go and whatever we do, any place we stay can become a place of practice. What is the daily life and pure mindset of Monk Beomjong, who lights a fire in a stove and draws spring water to make offerings in a deserted mountain, and what lessons does he impart to modern people living a fast-paced life? ● The Physiology and Principles of Hermitages Understanding Feng Shui Gyubongam Hermitage on Mt. Mudeung Even the seemingly ordinary rocks, springs, and pine trees surrounding the hermitage each possess hidden meaning and function. The influence on the ecosystem varies depending on the shape and geological structure of the mountain where the hermitage is located. Gyubongam Hermitage has long been renowned for its spiritual power, a legacy of strong indigenous beliefs. Through the eyes of Yongheon Cho, a doctor of Buddhist folklore, the mysterious power of this hermitage, boasting a long history, is revealed. Mudeungsan Mountain is called a "Yuksan" (Yuk Mountain) due to its abundance of soil. Unlike rocky, mountainous terrain, it embraces people and acts as a healing force. Gyubongam Hermitage, located at the highest point of Mudeungsan Mountain, is renowned as a temple visited by numerous eminent monks from the Honam region. In the cold winter, Gyubongam, covered in white snow, boasts a beauty and serene majesty reminiscent of a snowy landscape painting. The moment when complex human anguish is purified by the pure spirit of nature unfolds before your eyes. ● Discovering the History of Our People in a Hermitage Dosolam Hermitage on Seonun Mountain Dosolam Hermitage on Seonun Mountain in Gochang preserves the traces of history. Dosolam Hermitage is the Dosolcheon of the Maitreya Buddha, renowned as a revolutionary faith. This is why the Donghak movement originated in front of the rock-carved Buddha at Dosolam Hermitage. The fervent aspirations of the people who spearheaded the revolution to create a world more beneficial to humanity. Can we still discern that yearning and hope in the smile of the rock-carved Buddha? The Maitreya faith and the Donghak Revolution, which ignited a flame of hope for the common people, are explored by Cho Yong-heon as he explores the history of those who dream of a land of hope. The monks we met at the hermitage were pursuing a path of spiritual practice, seeking the Buddha within themselves. And the nature that embraced the hermitage opened a silent path for them. These two things are now offering modern people a new direction in life. ※ This video is from [KBS Special - Hermitage, a Place That Reaches the Sky], which aired on April 26, 2009. #Hermitage #Mountains #Nature This is the official KBS Documentary channel.
