Sheep News: Paekyang-sa: The Temple Named After a Sheep

Visit almost any Buddhist temple in Korea and there is likely to be some legend or myth associated with its name or how it was founded.

Interesting :-)

... Afterwards, the name of the temple was changed to Paekyang-sa (meaning White Sheep Temple), where even a sheep can perceive the truth.

Well, in between there is a whole legend of how and why this Korean temple was named after a white sheep. The interesting Travel story about Paekyang-sa in The Korea Times will reveal the whole story and more about the temple and the legend of the white sheep.
