Korea: the Intersection of Religions

Korea: the Intersection of Religions

South Korea today: Buddhism, Confucianism and Christianity. It is hard to understand how a person can follow three religions simultaneously.  Yet, Koreans live that way. They follow core values of each religion depending on nature of what they seek. Confucianism helps solve ethical problems, while Buddhism answers questions on meaning of life. Korea – the country that one could comprehend rather with one’s soul than with one’s eye or mind. The history is everywhere: temples with thousands years of history, ancient altars and Buddhist monks. It is the country of great respect for its past and traditions… “Korea: the intersection of religions” reveals history, culture and nowadays life of Koreans.
