  • Foreign culture, introduced by cultural exchange, was modified and accepted into a new form and value system. Culture speaks for the characters of the period, so it is presented by the mutual actions of many factors affecting culture. Religion is the essence of human life and the source of ideas about life, the universe and existence, so they become hidden inside of the structure of culture. Dancing costumes present the process of cultural modification and acceptance more vividly than general costumes. This research shows that, among foreign cultures, it is Buddhism that most influenced Chinese dancing costume. Taoism was the Chinese native religion that played an oppositional role against Buddhism. Taoism was hidden in Chinese dancing costume in every age. Chinese dancing costume changed many times due to the import of exotic styles such as Buddhism that partially replaced the Taoistic tradition. Therefore, it is confirmed that the process of cultural importation of exotic style was different according to the social, historical, and cultural backgrounds of China during the period from the Han to the Sui and Tang dynasties.

  • Following the introduction of Buddhism to China by Xuanzang (玄奘 602-664), the visual tradition of an itinerant monk became a popular subject. This theme developed into a Buddhist figure with an accompanying tiger, especially in Korea where tigers were an object of worship and ritual. This paper examines Korean examples of post-itinerant monk Buddhist figures accompanied by tigers, in particular the portrayal of itinerant monks as arhats and sansins. The supernatural powers of arhats were diverse, and they often tamed the tigers who then accompanied them on their journeys. The arhat, who was introduced during the Unified Silla period and gained popularity during the Goryeo period, was loved by the general public during the Joseon Dynasty as a familiar presence that brought good fortune. Special portraits of monks accompanied by a tiger, known as sansindo (山神圖), form a unique Korean genre. Sansin religious beliefs formed through a fusion of the newly introduced Buddhism and the age-old indigenous worship of sacred mountains and tigers. Most Buddhist temples include a sansin shrine containing on altar with sansin statues and portraits. Tigers in the portraits of itinerant monks and the stories of Buddhist monks who tamed tigers became famous and widely accepted in Korea, a nation already rich in tiger lore. Folklore and indigenous shamanism contributed to the establishment of Buddhism in Korea, and tigers played a central role in this.

  • $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ are understood as the deities of four directions in Buddhism: $Dhrtar{\bar{a}}stra$ in the East, $Vir{\bar{u}}dhaka$ in the South, $Vir{\bar{u}}p{\bar{a}}ksa$ in the West and $Vai{\acute{s}}ravana$ in the North respectively. Their common name is, therefore, called as the "Four Guardian Kings", whose function is to prevent demonic forces from entering into its sacred world. Although the position of $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ is to the lowest level in the hierarchy of the minor deities in Buddhism, the cult of $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ was widely spread and prominent in the countries of Northern Buddhism. It played a significant role in terms of the state-protecting Buddhism, on behalf of it's esoteric and magic power. More than 20 Gateways of the $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ and $Lokap{\bar{a}}la$ statues were still well preserved in Korea, and they were believed to be constructed after the Japanese attack in 1592. After war, monks had concentrated on restoring ruined temples and building many new Gateways of the Four Guardian Kings over the Korean peninsular. Under such circumstances, even though the $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ played a significant role as the subject of cult in Korean Buddhism. they might have a small chance to be taught traditional Lama iconography exactly. The purpose of this essay is to examine the relation of orientation of the Gate way of $Lokap{\bar{a}}las$ and allocation of each Kings inside the gate.

  • 이 글은 조선왕조 제4대 군주 세종대왕의 정신세계를 고찰하는 일환으로 그에게서는 유교와 불교가 동시에 중시되었다는 점을 밝혀 보려는 것이다. 왕조실록에서는 세종이 '해동의 요순(堯舜)'으로 평가되지만, 자세히 살펴보면 부처를 숭신했던 사례들을 종종 발견할 수 있다. 특히 왕실에서 생명의 위험성이 다가오면 구병(救病)을 위한 기도행사를 펼쳤으며 선왕의 사당에는 불당까지 겸비할 것을 추구하였다. 이러한 이면에는 세종의 유불화해의식이 작용하고 있었던 것이다. 유신(儒臣)들은 숭유억불의 기조를 따라 유교문화 확장의 차원에서 부단히 척불론을 전개했다. 특히 왕실의 불사(佛事)에 대해서는 군주와 격렬한 논쟁을 벌이기도 했다. 그러나 세종은 불교의 역사성과 현재성, 그리고 자신의 종교체험 등에 유의하여 그 적폐를 제거하면서도 불교 자체의 존재가치를 긍정하였다. 그렇다고 유교사상을 내세워 불교를 비난하거나 불교정신을 따라 유교를 경시하는 것도 아니었다. 즉 그는 유교를 높이면서도 불교를 버릴 수 없는 것으로 보고, 또 불교를 긍정하면서도 유교적인 삶의 태도를 중시했다. 현실적 삶의 태도로서는 유교윤리를 추구하고 생사 초월의 신앙적 측면으로는 불교를 높이며 융화해가는 입장을 보인 것이다. 특히 생사문제 등 인간으로서의 한계의식이 깊어질 때는 유교의 천명사상이나 제사의례뿐만 아니라 부처에의 믿음으로 위안을 찾을 수 있다고 보았다. 세종에서 유불화해의식의 절정은 선왕을 모시는 사당 문소전에 반드시 불당이 함께 있어야 한다는 모습으로 나타났다. 그와 같은 화해의식이 작용하게 되는 원인으로는 첫째 유교와 불교는 모두 왕조국가의 기조를 튼튼히 하는 데에 긴요하다고 인식되었다는 점, 둘째 기도에 대한 감응을 얻으며 안심입명의 안정감을 가지게 되었다는 점, 셋째 인간 평등의 가치관이 중시되고 있었다는 점 등을 말할 수 있다. 그리고 세종 유불화해의식이 가지는 의의로서는 ① 사람들의 정신적 상황 그대로를 긍정하여 평화적 삶의 기반을 제고시킬 수 있다는 것, ② 도덕적인 삶과 종교적인 삶의 포괄성을 높일 수 있다는 것, ③ 여러 가지 사회적 대립형상을 예방하는 데에 기여한다는 점 등을 들 수 있다.

  • The main functions of a Buddhist temples are as a place for Buddhist services and a place for sermons and each ancient Buddhist temple was equipped with a main and separate building. After Zen Buddhism was first introduced, there was a tendency to change the terms to Buddhist sanctuary and altar, as set forth in the Zen Buddhism code of conduct called 'Cheonggyu(淸規)'. As such, it was thought that the division between Buddhist service space and preaching space were relatively firm until the Goryeo Dynasty. However in the period from the end of the Goryeo to the beginning of the Joseon Dynasty there was an increasing tendency of integration of the two buildings. It can be seen that, in cases where both buildings remained, statues of Buddha were enshrined in these buildings without any distinction. Eventually it is led to the tradition of duo-Buddhist sanctums.

  • 라마교 사원축제 시에 연행되는 챰(cham)은 티벳은 물론 인도, 네팔, 부탄, 몽골에 전승되어 온 불교 의식무용이다. 챰의 유형과 양식, 제차는 지역과 종파에 따라 변별되나 공통적으로 불법(佛法)에 거스르는 악을 응징함으로써 불법의 승리와 세상의 안과태평을 경축하기 위해 연행된다. 본고는 인도 북단의 라닥(Ladakh)의 헤미스(Hemis)사원에서 라마교의 개조 빠드마삼바바($Padm{\bar{a}}sambhava$; 연화생(蓮華生))의 탄신을 경축하기 위해 행해지는 쩨츄 챰을 대상으로 그 제의적 연행 관념과 구조를 고찰하였다. 그를 통해 신성현현과 제의적 공양, 시각화 명상, 만달라로서의 제의적 공간, 양식화된 연행의 제의적 함의, 점강적 공연 구조, 공연 동기의 대승성 등의 특성을 확인하였다.
