The Catholic nun, Yi Hae-in, the Venerable Haemin, the poet, Kim Seon-wu, and the artist, Yi Cheol-su are people who inspire and give us hope with their words and art. The common denominator of these people is the Venerable Monk, Beopjeong, of whom all of them met. The book, Heartwarming Encounter, contains eighteen different stories about each of their meetings with the revered monk whose teaching is still powerfully relevant.
