About the programs
1) Balwoo gongyang (monastic meal):
Balwoo are bowls containing a moderate amount of rice and vegetables. Balwoo gongyang is a traditional way of eating a meal for Buddhist monks. It involves the spirit of Equality, Cleanliness, and Thrift because everybody shares the same food equally, the food is cooked in a clean environment, and there is no waste.

2) Cham-Seon (Seon meditation):
Seon meditation is to cut off all thoughts. Through Cham-Seon, you can learn mindfulness and concentration.

3) Ulyeok (communal work):
Ulyeok means working together. Everyone in the temple stops what they are doing to lend a hand. One rule of the temple is 'a day without work is a day without food'. In the self-sufficient life in a remote Buddhist temple, this is an axiom of practicality.

4) Yebool:
Yebool is a ceremony of paying respect to the Sakyamuni Buddha, Bodhisattvas, and all his disciples. It affords a chance for self-reflection of practice.

5) 108 Prostrations:
The practice of lowering oneself by bowing. Bowing shows respect for others and humbles the mind while purifying one of defilement and worldly sufferings.

6) Doryangseok (dawn bell chant):
Doryangseok is a chanting ceremony held in the early morning to purify and awaken the temple compound. It is performed to the sounding of the bell.
