The Threefold Practice of Won Buddhism

In Won Buddhism, the threefold practice—absorption, inquiry, and making mindful choices—maps out the path to spiritual freedom. Rev. Grace Song describes how these principles work together to help us develop a more balanced practice that puts Buddhist wisdom into action in our daily lives.

Rev. Grace Song is a Kyomunim (ordained minister) in the Won Buddhist tradition and the department chair of Won Buddhist Studies at the Won Institute of Graduate Studies. She is a Buddhist chaplain at the University of Pennsylvania and also serves on the Mayor’s Commission on Faith-Based and Interfaith Affairs in Philadelphia.
