For many centuries after Wonhyo, Korean Buddhism experienced total oppression. Monks could not enter through the gates of Seoul, and Buddhist teachings entered a period of contraction. Monks & masters retreated to the mountains. Remote Zen communities formed, poor yet self-sustaining & rich in spirit. It is here, during the 19th century, we find our next two sister stories. The first, a story of Kyunghuh & his young disciple Mangong. The second story finds Mangong, years later with his own young disciple, Wondam. Many years later, Wondam became the teacher of our Detroit Zen Center Abbot.
