This multifaceted approach developed into an inclusive model of education that encompassed both monastics and lay practitioners, transcending conventional sectarian boundaries. Significantly, Park's disciples-may of whom were educated through institution such as the Central Buddhist College-played a vital role in advancing the modernization and social outreach Korean Buddhism.
