How Can We Train Our Thoughts to Be at Peace?
🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A Selection from a Dharma Q&A session at UBC (Oct. 3,2017)🔹Question : There are so much negativity around us. How can we train our thoughts as individuals to become better people in society? Because it's so hard to come to a point of individual peace, having peace within yourself and peace of the surroundings around you. Is there a way that you can everyday train yourself to be at peace so that you are not stressed and angry at the world and people? 🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism): https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/ 🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

What Is the Role of the Privileged ?
🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A Selection from a Dharma Q&A session at AmericanUniversity (Sep. 27, 2017)🔹Question : People who are privileged have a lot of work to do today, to be in solidarity with people who are marginalized. Do either love, duty, or selflessness best characterize the basis of the work that privileged people have to do today? So, none of those words are descriptive of the kind of solidarity work we need to do today? 🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism): https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/ 🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

What Should a Buddhist Enterprise Look Like If There Is Any?
🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A Selection from Casual Conversation with Ven. Pomnyun Sunim(November 7, 2021)🔹Question : I’d like to ask Sunim’s view on the idea of building a Buddhist corporate model in different areas of the industry. So the background of this is, I’ve seen a lot of religion based companies around the world but rarely a Buddhist company. So one great example is Jainism companies in India. They have different companies in IT, media. Jains actually apply strict principles such as nonposession, nonattachment in their business and they utilize their company resources andtechnology to help numerous people. So I’ve been thinking that it’d be great for Buddhist practitioners to build a company that can sort of represent Buddhist values in the industry. So I was thinking it might not be possible to be like Junto Society where it’s like 100% pure but at least I thought that it might be able to implement some degrees. So to summarize I’d like to ask your view on the idea of a Buddhist company. If any Buddhist practitioner were to build such a company in the future, do you have any principles or guidelines you’d like to suggest? 🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism): https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/ 🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

How to Distinguish Truth from Fiction
🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A 2022. 01. 23🔹Question : Thank you for giving me this rare opportunity to ask a question in person, Sunim. I’m an Australian citizen who were born and completed most of the education in Korea.At the age around 30, I migrated over here in Sydney about 15 years ago. I have been through many of my personal challenges in terms of jobs, relationships and so forth, in this new territory. While going through this process, I got interested in raising my consciousness to perceive the things around myself more clearly. So, I can face the various challenges in my life with more positive attitudes and minimize the sufferings in the process. And by readingvarious books, I’ve been seeking advice from so called enlightened people for a while. And currently, I am focusing on a way to liberate myself from my ego. Recently, I came across a scholar who passed away a while ago. His name is David Hawkins. While reading one of books, he exemplified Mother Teresa as a person who demonstrated the unconditional love that have healed many people both in a physical and mental way. Then, I had to close the book right away after reading this part. The reason is that ever since I watched the documentarycalled “Hell’s Angel” which might have revealed hidden truths of her life and so called her legacy. I was quite shocked when I watched the documentary realizing that the fact that even the very common belief image about the people that we think we know well could be completely deceiving. I understand thatthere can’t be a perfect human but as a person who seeks the truth and right away to live life, even so called enlightened people, often obviously reproduce, common understanding of falsified images of the public figures. Then, what would be the good approach to weed out false or truth and seeks the rightinformation among the people who claim to be enlightened? 🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism): https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/ 🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint

How Can I Effectively Help Others in Need?
🔹Ven Pomnyun’s Dharma Q&A 2023.09. 22🔹Question : During COVID, during the time of loneliness your teachings have helped me a lot. So today I’m actually here as a volunteer to show you my gratitude, and I’d also like to extend my thank you for all the positive things you’ve done for the world. It’s very inspiring for me. My question is this. If I want to help those people who have very hard time trying to help themselves, how should I go about that? Here is my specific example. Where I currently live, there are a lot of homelesspeople, a lot of people who are suffering from drug addiction. During the time of COVID, I decided to help them out by prepare little bags with snacks in them, put them in the back of my car. And whenever I drive around and see them, I would give it to them. One day, I had a friend sitting in the same car who knew about the things that I did for these people. And she saw that I only had one bag left. There was a homeless person in front of us and she goes, “You have one bag left. That person obviously is a drug addict, so you probably should save that for somebody else.” When I first heard that, I thought thatwas a bit harsh. But when I went back home, and started really thinking about it, I thought to myself that her logic does make sense in a way because what if by giving our these goody bags, these people are not really pushing themselves toearn money, try to get a job, to try to get out of the addiction? Instead, ones they get money, since they already have food, maybe they’ll get drugs. So, I got into this whole thinking process and started catching myself, noticing myself that every time I’m running out of bags, I would see homeless people and don’t know how to detect if this person is addicted to drugs or not. Apparently, it shows on their face. I had a really hard time trying to make that decision everytime. So, my question is how should go about in situations like this. 🔻Jungto Dharma School(Introduction to Buddhism): https://www.jungtosociety.org/jungto-dharma-school-online-course/ 🔻 All Jungto Society’ssocial platforms: http://linktr.ee/jungtoint
