  • In 2010, nearly thirteen hundred Buddhist monks from all over the world converged on to the small Indonesian resort town of Berastagi to celebrate the inauguration of the Taman AlamLumbini, a replica of Myanmar's most iconic Theravada Buddhist temple, the ShwedagonPaya. Nestled on Christian lands within a predominantly Muslim country, the building of the Taman AlamLumbini marked several years of negotiation amongst various religious communities, local government mediators, and patrons. This study makes a preliminary assessment of the ways in which cultural and historical discourses were used by participants to evoke a sense of transnational connectedness outside the realm of formal bilateral diplomacy. Through particular Buddhist ceremonies, rituals, and imagery, Myanmar sponsors and Indonesian patrons promoted a sense of broad pan-Asianism that linked monks, state officials, and local lay practitioners into a single community. A brief examination of the key speeches during the opening ceremony reveals that national interest and identity were still very much in play.

  • We study, in this paper, on the decorative design of the Treasure-architectural form for the Silla Buddhist reliquary and this research went through the observation on the Buddhist Reliquaries of the Song-Lim-Sa, the Eastern-Western three floor pagodas in the Kam-Eun-Sa, the three floor pagodas in the Bul-Guk-Sa and the reportedly discovered Nam-Won. The Buddhist reliquaries of these 5 Reliquaries, when compared with those of China and Japan in the same period, they worshiped the Buddhist reliquary as a Buddhist God itself and put them as a part of the architectural decoration, being installed in the construction forms. In the form and the composition of the architecture, we can see those having been designed with very detailed and brightly decorated form. The Buddhist reliquaries in the Song-Lim-Sa and Kam-Eun-Sa, the most important ones in this research, were in a royal palace shape having completely the altar part, interior space part, and the ceiling part, which inform us the whole structure of the architecture in details. In particular, for the case of Kam-Eun-Sa, the columns in the shape of bamboo trees, the expression of the gates, the terrace of double parts formed of word-shape Man, and the statue of a general with superhuman ability in the shrine explain us the description of the Gyun-Bo-Tap-Pum of Lotus Sutra. After all these researches, we conclude that the Buddhist reliquaries in form of the Treasure-architecture represented the architectural style of the same period as a form of industrial arts and we can see that they tried to use all of their highly skilled and talented methods to describe the Buddhist Pure Land.

  • 본 연구는 뺑덕어멈이 공유하는 계모형 서사가 어떻게 <심청전> 속에 편입되게 되었는가의 문제를 규명하고자 했다. 이 아젠다를 규명하기 위해 본 연구가 선택한 접근 방법은 뺑덕어멈이 공유하는 계모형 서사가 근원설화에서부터 배태된 <심청전>이 완결된 형태를 구성한 이후에 확장되는 과정에서 삽화적으로 편입되었다고 보는 관점이다. 지금까지 <심청전>의 근원설화로 알려져 온 <전동자설화(專童子說話)> <법묘동자설화(法妙童子說話)> <소야희설화(小夜姬說話)> <목련구모설화(目連救母說話)> <선우태자설화(善友太子說話)> <원홍장설화(元洪莊說話) <황천의무가설화(黃泉巫歌說話)> <효녀지은설화(孝女知恩說話)>의 8편을 검토해 본 결과, <전동자설화> <법묘동자설화> <소야희설화> <선우태자설화> <목련구모설화> <원홍장설화>의 6편이 북전(北傳) 남전(南傳) 불경계 설화임이 확인되었기 때문에, 본 연구는 우선적으로 <심청전>의 불전계 근원설화의 제 계열에 따른 계모형 서사와의 관련성 검토에서 출발했다. 이들 <심청전> 근원설화 6편의 상호관련양상과 전개사를 검토해본 결과 계모형 서사가 특히 모친과 관련된 개안화소(開眼話素)와 일정한 상호관계 속에서 나타나고 있다는 사실을 확인하게 되었다. <심청전> 근원설화의 모친개안화소(母親開眼話素)가 남전(南傳) 불경계 설화와 밀접한 관련성을 갖고 있으며, <심청전> 근원설화 관련 계모형 서사는 이러한 남전 불경계 모친개안화소를 매개로 남전에 대한 북전의 상대적으로 우월한 감화력을 전파하고자 한 북전(北傳) 불경계 설화의 향유배경 속에서 탄생했다는 사실을 입증할 수 있었다. 다음으로 해당 계모형 맹인개안화소(盲人開眼話素)가 경판계 <심청전>에 틈입하여 완판계 <심청전>의 뺑덕어미 서사를 형성해 내게 된 배경을 완판계 <심청전>의 향유공간인 전라도 일대를 중심으로 한 문학지리와의 관련성 속에서 규명해 보았다. 인도 남전계 진경설화(眞經說話)가 중국에서 한역된 이후 최종적으로 국내 유입되는 과정에서, 계모의 모해에 직면한 부친의 자식에 대한 자애양육서사(慈愛養育敍事)가 북전 불경계 설화적 특수성과 결합된 결과 부친의 유사맹목(類似盲目)을 개안시키기 위한 자식의 희생효행서사로 재구성된 것이 바로 전라도 일대의 <우목낭상설화(寓目囊箱說話)>라는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 북전 불경계 설화와 남전 불경계 설화의 결합은 18세기 후반기 불교 세계관 체계에서 새롭게 대유행한 신조류였는데, 18세기 후반기부터 전라도 일대에서 판각인쇄 되어 <심청전> 향유사의 새로운 흐름을 형성한 완판본은 이처럼 북전 불경설화와 남전 불경설화가 습합되는 배경 속에서 남전 불경설화의 계모서사가 북전 불경계 설화에 기반한 초기 <심청전>에 틈입하여 형성된 것으로 보인다.

  • This paper aimed to identify the variation of layout in Hwangnyoungsa buddhist temple site based on studying published the excavation research paper and texts related to layout. According to earlier studies, in 1st construction period(553~569) of Hwangnyoungsa, there were trisection spaces with one main hall and two corridors in inner part and then in 2nd period(584~645), unified one. But actually trisection spaces had been maintained until the middle part of 8th century. And in each space there was the main hall with large yard. That is the 2nd period layout of Hwangnyoungsa. For the attainment this result, each building remains are judged under duplicated situation which one was the previous and next by consideration of the construction condition and special features of foundation. Although the meaning of trisection system of Hwangnyoungsa is similar with the layout of ancient palace, it could be said to derive from accumulation excavation research in Silla's archeological site and such studies.

  • This article explored how the introduction of the Gregorian calendar transformed the Buddhist traditional practices of a noble class family who lost power in the royal court during the emergence of the British in Upper Myanmar. It examined in micro-level, the said changes by way of Wekmasuk Wundauk U Latt's diary, which recorded the social and economic conditions of Mandalay, then the capital of the Myanmar kingdom, from 1886 to 1898. When Burmese kings reigned in Mandalay, the court closed on Sabbath day, when the Buddhist Burmese went to monasteries to fulfill religious obligations. The introduction of the Gregorian calendar turned Sunday into a regular day off, which left Sabbath day to be used for more work. This prevented the then noblemen to attend to monastic duties as they had to use the day, for example to go to the bank to draw their pension. This research reveals that the Gregorian calendar has transformed the day off from "holy day" to "holiday."

  • In this paper, we describe visualization pursuant of developing 37 Honored Ones within the Diamond World Mandala. “The 37 Honored Ones” are a collective term for 5 Buddhas and 32 Bodhisattvas that were built on the basis of Vajrasekhara Sutra. Also, as core values of Buddhism, they represent ideas of Esoteric Buddhism systematically and symbolically. “The 37 Honored Ones” are completed by the development of 4 Buddhas from Vairocana and their interaction with 16 Great Bodhisattvas and 16 Offering Bodhisattvas that were also developed from Vairocana. So, in this paper, we analyze and visualize the development of “37 Honored Ones.” This line of research is significant because it aims to convert narrative structure of the conventional Buddhism scriptures into various types of digital contents. Also, applications of the implemented visual digital contents can be as follows; educational service for Buddhist doctrines, development of the various Buddhist cultural contents, etc.

  • This study proposes the development of 'Mandala 37', a puzzle game based content that learns the principles of 37 Honored Ones within the Diamond World Mandala. The proposed game is a new type of learning content that combines the development process of 37 Honored Ones with the characteristics of the puzzle game. It aims to increase the understanding of Buddhist content by inducing learners' interest and increasing their concentration. Learners can learn and understand the principles of the emergence of 37 Honored Ones naturally through the rules of the game. This study introduces the implementation process of the proposed game and explains how learners perceive the principle of 37 Honored Ones within the Diamond World Mandala through the game.

  • Banya was a concubine slave of Shindon(辛旽) who was a powerful monk in late Goryeo Dynasty, as well as the mother of King Woo(禑王), a successor of King Gongmin(恭愍王). This study was undertaken to investigate the sources of costume for Banya. The study focused on the features of Buddhist service costume, street wear, and daywear for common women's costume during the prime age of the Buddhist culture. The study looked into Buddhist paintings, old documents, advanced research, and relics. There are three characteristics of historically investigated Buddhist service costume for Banya: Dallyeongpo(團領袍), long Jeogori made with black Ra(羅), and Jeogori with a long scarf. Skirt, under Jeogori, under skirt, Cho, Ra(羅), Neung (綾), Dan(緞), patterned ramie(紋紵), and Tapja(塔子) were included in all Buddhist service costume. And, street wear consisted of Women's Dapho(婦人搭忽), long Jeogori, skirt, underwear and black Ra beil(蒙首). Daywear consisted of Banbi(半臂), long Jeogori, and skirt, underwear made with cheap fabric, Ju(綢), ramie, and imported cotton. Plumper hair, silver comb and Biyeo, lining of light pink-colored thin silk(小紅薄絹), bronze openworked ornament that fixed the outerwear's opening, bronze needle case, Sutra box and heated gemstone could be matched for the Buddhist service costume. Bronze and heated gemstone could be used for ornaments of street wear and daywear. The investigation of ornaments was carried on by referring to presentation of overseas collections. Considering the limitation of the study on Goryeo costume due to the lack of research material, future studies including much more relics in oversea collections needs to be undertaken.

태국의 불교사찰 벽화에 관한 연구 (A Study of the Mural Paintings in Thai Temples)

  • This research tries to review the history and concepts of Thai temple mural painting. According to the research results, the history of Thai mural painting dates back to the late 14th century when Wat Chedi Chet Taeo in Si Satchanalai was built. The Sinhalese elements embedded in the Sukhothai murals are also found in the Ayuthayan stupa murals made in the early 15th century. The mid 18th century's Burmese invasion into Ayuthaya destroyed most of Buddhist temples in the Kingdom of Ayuthaya and as a result, Buddhist murals of the late Ayuthayan age are hardly found except for some temple murals located outside of the capital. The late Ayuthayan murals are much different from the early Ayuthayan murals in that they are narrative in depicting Jataka and the life of Lord Buddha. This classical mural painting culminated in the age of Rama III of Bangkok Dynasty. His successor Rama IV undertook westernized reforms which influenced the area of traditional mural painting. Consequently, new western style Buddhist mural paintings were produced while themes of mural painting were enlarged to the other subjects such as historical recording of royal and social events. This trend continued in the age of Rama V but the development of Thai Buddhist mural painting discontinued after the death of Rama V due to the rapid westernization and decrease of illiteracy. The existing Buddhist murals produced on or before the reign of Rama V are deteriorating and disappearing. The reasons for this are partly because of Thailand's humid climate. However, some social backgrounds such as the lack of concern for preserving old Buddhist murals can not be disregarded. Considering the substantial value of Thai Buddhist murals as a cultural resource in Thai society, it is very urgent to establish appropriate conservation policy for them.
