The InnerView travels to Chuang Yen Monastery in Upstate New York where Imran Garda meets Venerable Bhikkhu Bodhi.
The prominent monastic discusses the principles of Engaged Buddhism and explains why he believes being silent on issues affecting humanity’s most vulnerable is not an option. Bodhi also has strong words of criticism for Ashin Wirathu, the monk accused of inflaming hatred against Rohingya Muslims.
