Three people live in a remote Buddhist monastery near Mount Chonan: Hyegok, the old master; Yong Nan, a young man who has left his extended family in the city to seek enlightenment - Hyegok calls him Kibong!; and, an orphan lad Haejin, whom Hyegok has brought to the monastery to raise as a monk. The story is mostly Yong Nan's, told in flashbacks: how he came to the monastery, his brief return to the city, his vacillation between the turbulence of the world and his hope to overcome passions and escape the idea of self. We also see Hyegok as a teacher, a protector, and a father figure, and we watch Haejin make his way as a curious and nearly self-sufficient child. Where does the Master of my being go？。何为达摩东渡意。如何是祖师西来意，禅是光影切玉刀。不立文字无字幕，实无功德思密达。迟到数年的呓语。导演说。裴镛钧，独立制作。说说那三个女人。居然长达137分钟！。若离于爱者，无忧亦无怖——《Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East?》。 About three monks in a remote monastery; an aging master, a small orphan and a young man who left his city life to seek Enlightenment.
