I believe the unification of South and North Korea should happen in the future. I'd like to be part of the help in terms of economics. What are the good directions? What kind of study should I do? My second question is , you said, we're doing too much study in masters, Ph.D , or in college. I'm not sure how I should understand that.     🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism):https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/  🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

    I Am Really Bad at Anger Control

    🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A Ven. Pomnyun's Answer to "I Am Really Bad at AngerControl " Selection from a Dharma Q&A session at St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Sunnyvale, California (Nov. 8, 2014) 🔹Question:  Hi. I'm a graduate student at Stanford University studying biochemistry. To me or to us It seems like you have answers to most of the questions or conundrums. Do you still have a question that you really want to answer or want an answer for? And my another question is I am really bad at anger control. I think I am mature enough to recognize the moment that I lose my control, but I just can't suppress them. And I have a problem suppressing my anger, although,I recognize the moment that my brain just goes alright. How can I do better anger control? That's my questions.     🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism):https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/  🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

    My Neighbors' Dogs Have Been Urinating in My Garden.

    🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A 2023. 7. 16 🔹Question: Hi Sunim. It's nice to see you. I appreciate having this opportunity. My question is about a relationship with a neighbor. I am someone who really loves nature on manylevels including the beauty of nature, and, in particular, I love flowers. Last year, we bought a new home, and it was not in great shape, so we made repairs. We had a landscaper put in a lawn and flowers to make it more beautiful. Our neighbors were really happy that we did this, and they acknowledged us. But this summer, they are allowing their dogs to urinate on our newly landscaped lawn and property. There are four dogs that are particularly a part of this. Last weekend, I got very sad about it, but I also was very angry. So, I was talking to my husband, and I said to him, "I want to find a Buddhist way to think about this." I'm wondering, "Am I too attached to the garden? Should I allow it to just be ruined?" As a Buddhist practitioner, I'm really interested in your wisdom on what would be the best for me and my neighbors?     🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism):https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/  🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

    A Call for Peace and Action

    🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A The Russian invasion of Ukraine and the death and thedestruction that we see on the media are heartbreaking. In all conflicts, each side has justifiable reasons, but it is not right to resort to military intervention to resolve disputes. I sincerely hope that the current military conflict comes to an end as soon as possible and that the Ukrainian people can quickly recover their sense of normalcy and peace. Let’s take a moment ofsilence (and meditation) to wish for peace. For the war to end as soon as possible, the international community must come together and send a unified message that it is not right to settle disputes with military force. However, the most effective solution will be for the Russian citizens to raise their collective voices in asking the Russian government for a prompt end to the war. The crucial factor in ending the Vietnam War was not military victories or defeats.Ultimately, it was the anti-war movements by many people asking for peace within the U.S. that helped to end the war. It is necessary for the international community to cooperate to restrain Russia’s unjustifiable actions with economic and diplomatic sanctions. However, it is also very important forpeople in all corners of the world to continuously raise their voices for peace. May all living beings be happy and peaceful. February 27, 2022 Ven.

    How Do We Deal with the Groups that Against the Rest of the World ?

    🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A Selection from a Dharma Q&A session in UCLA (Nov. 16,2014) 🔹Question: When we see suffering and when we see crimes being perpetrated by certain groups against the rest of the world, how do we approach that problem? How do we engage it? Today you could see in many parts of the world where similar things are happening, where people are very determined to advance their agenda and to exterminate physically destroy anyone who opposes them. We can look at communism, we can look at other ideologies that are very aggressive. That do not want to coexist with anybody, do not want to accept anybody’s alternative ideas. They see the world in only one way. And anyone who opposes them will be destroyed. So how do we address that? How do we as the conscious and enlightened human being deal with that? What’s your advice?   🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism):https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/  🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint
