Zen Master Chung Wha Sunim Memorial Service: November 10th Zen Master Chung Wha ... The Great Korean Zen Master Chung Wha received his ordination under the guidance of preceptor Geumta at Backyang monastery in 1947 at the age of 24. For the next forty years, Chung Wha lived an ascetic life as a mendicant monk, visiting meditation halls, caves and hermitages throughout Korea. In 1985, the master turned back towards the world, and began to give dharma talks to the public. The Venerable Chung Wha’s practice embraced severe self-discipline: almost never lying down, and taking only a single meal each day. In efforts to disseminate his vision of Buddhism, he opened the Diamond Zen Center in Banning in southern California in 1995, and he reorganized Carmel Sambosa, of Carmel Valley in central California in 1994. The Venerable Chung Wha has written extensively about Buddha’s teachings; a number of his books were published both before and after his passing. He served as a member of the Council of Elders for the Jogye Order until his death in 2003.

Sambosa with Autumn!
