Synopsis

Mu Jin argues that while vegetarianism is possible, Grandmaster Hyun Gwang, due to his advanced age and weakened state, requires meat-based protein for muscle recovery. He cleverly uses analogies related to the cycle of life to explain this to the monks, eventually swaying the Abbot to make an exception to the temple's rules. Grandmaster Hyun Gwang, who was previously unable to move without help, shows significant improvement from treatment and is now able to sit up on his own and move his body slightly. Mu Jin and the other monks are now determined to continue the rehabilitation process.
