Abstract | This paper aims to review Jungto Society, a dynamic modern movement to see if it follows the Buddha’s teachings. All materials were analyzed in a systematic and academic way for a better understanding of Pure Land teaching and its application in JungtoSociety, Korea. The research shows that Pure Land teaching with its root in Mahāyānamust always be understood from Mahāyāna trikaya teaching. Main Mahāyāna concepts of Interconnectedness, Dependent Co-arising = ‘sunyata, Pure/ Original Mind, Non-duality in practice and the Bodhisattva Path are also to be considered. The Pure Land teaching is dynamic and adapts its practice through changing times and needs. The study shows that Jungto Society is a modern example of reinterpretation for Dependent Origination, Four Noble Truths, Eight Noble Path, Tilakhana and Bodhisattva path in Mahāyāna. The results of the study indicate how the concept of Pure Land and its later day innovation are taught by JungtoSociety. The Pure Land foundational sūtras, background of Jungto Society, its Buddhist activities, impact and contributions on Korean society were examined. |
