An Anonymous Nun Donates 100 Million Won to Dongguk University's Gyeongju Hospital

Dongguk University's Gyeongju Hospital announced on the 12th that it received a donation of 100 million won for hospital development from an anonymous nun.

According to the hospital, the nun from a temple located in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province, has always had a deep interest in the social role of Buddhist hospitals and the patients they serve.

This donation was made possible by the connection with Hye-neung, the guiding monk of Gyeongju Hospital, and the nun expressed that it was an opportunity to practice the Buddha's act of mujusangbosi (offering without attachment).

Shin Hye-kyung, the director of Dongguk University's Gyeongju Hospital, expressed deep gratitude for the donation, promising, "We will honor the noble intention of the nun and use it meaningfully as a valuable starting point for the development of the hospital and the improvement of the environment for cancer treatment."
