한실

Awakened to the disarray in the Korean language, he dedicated himself to reviving dying words, simplifying difficult Sino-Korean terms into accessible native expressions, and interpreting Korean words in Korean. He established “Maum-Dakkeuneun Maeul” (Mind-Polishing Village) at the foot of Surime (Mount Songni) in the Sabara region (Sangju) of Nosarasa (Gyeongbuk). There, he leads meditation practices to help anyone polish their mind, freeing themselves from suffering to live a content and unburdened life. Through “Pureun Nuri”, he strives to live in harmony with the natural laws (Nuri Byeori) alongside all living beings, sustaining life with naturally grown food from fields and meadows. Earlier in life, he worked toward empowering working people to become the true stewards of the nation and dedicated himself to uniting a divided Korea.
