In the last century, science and material development have advanced perhaps more than at any other time in human history. People enjoy previously unimagined material ellbeing, but few are those who have found spiritual satisfaction. In the midst of their riches, eople are plagued by doubts about tomorrow as well as the possibility of losing everything they have.

In our busy, modern lives, how can one find the answers to these problems and the more fundamental questions that each one of us must confront?

Seon Master Daehaeng shows us that by awakening to our true nature, our origin, it is possible to become free and at one with everything that confronts us.

The Life and Teachings of Seon Master Daehaeng shows how Seon Master Daehaeng achieved perfect enlighten- ment through constant practice and unshakable faith in her fundamental mind.

As she reminds us: “It is a small task to change your daily life into Buddhist lifestyle, but it is a great task to deeply awaken to the fact that your daily life and all existence are themselves the Buddha Dharma.“ She shows us by example how the details of our life can become our practice.

Organized into two volumes, part one of the first volume recounts the suffering and hardships of a young girl and her encounter with Buddhism, while part two recalls her enlightenment and consists her experiences applying that to the world around her.

The second volume consists of dialogues with her disciples and other religious practitioners, together with a Dharma talk about what we
can all do to help preserve the planet.
