This study aims to examine the early use of Da-bo tap and their transformation by analyzing the various meanings of the term pagoda in Chinese translations, the Sanskrit version of the Lotus Sutra, as well as Dabotap in the Mogao Caves of Dunhuang. In addition, we aim to highlight changes in Dabotap usage, which started out as residential spaces, but transformed into burial spaces over time. The details can be summarized as follows. First, early Buddhist monuments were usually either pagodas serving as burial places for the dead or shrines that were not. A Dabotap is a type of pagoda enshrining the body of Prabhutaratna, and was initially used as a residential space, rather than a burial place for the dead. Second, the terms stupa and caitya are clearly distinguished from each other in the Sanskrit scriptures, and stupa is also further classified into dhatu, sarisa, and atmabhava based on the object being enshrined. In Gyeon-bo-tab-pum, the preconditions for caitya to transform into stupa is presented by explaining that worshipping the space enshrining the body of Prabhutaratna is worthy of the same status as the space enshrining sarira. Third, the Mogao Caves of Dunhuang had been depicted from the Western Wei of the Northern Dynasties until the time of the Yuan Dynasty. It was used as a residential space until the early Sui Dynasty, but was used as both residence and burial places until the Tang Dynasty when pagodas were first being constructed with wheel or circles forms on top, which then gradually changed into stupa (grave towers).

Buddhism that has arisen in India began to build the Stupa to enshrine body and Sari of Buddha as an object of worship. The stupa existed as a tome of holy leaders even before the birth of Buddha, which was called stupa or tupa in the Sanskrit and the Pali, the ancient language of India. The stupa was renamed accordingly in each Buddhism transmitted countries such as Ceylon, Tibet, Nepal, Myanmar, Thailand and China and also reshaped according to their own formative style. But its original meaning and type are kept unchanged. The stupa was established in the 4 holy places including the birth place of Buddha, the place where Buddha found enlightenment, the place where Buddha preached for the first time, and the place where Buddha died. Thus, a pagoda to commemorate holy ancient places is called Chaitya, which became differentiated from the stupa in which Sari is enshrined. The stupa means Nirvana, the eternal body of Buddha, and also a place filled with teaching and preaching of Buddhism. It signifies the symbol of Buddha who escaped from the death and rebirth, to achieve complete extinction, i.e. parinirvana, and to reach ultimate eternal world, rather than simply means death. During the non-statue of th Buddha period, people built the stupa to embody Nirvana of the Buddha, and worshipped the tomb where body of holy saints was enshrined. On the other hand, they also sanctified memorial things such as tools that holy saints used, the Bo tree under which one achieved Nirvana, Dharma cakra that implied words, footprint that carried out mission work, and a way to reach to heaven.

2006년 고마자와대학에서 발견된 간경도감본 "오삼난야신학비용"의 출현은 답보상태에 있던 다비법 연구에 새로운 전기를 마련하는 계기가 되었다. 3권으로 구성되어 있는 "오삼난야신학비용"은 상권은 일부 낙질이 있고 하권은 가의 일반의례를 담고 있다. 중권은 동아시아 불교상장례의 시원을 담은 내용으로 편집되어 있어 중요한 의미를 지닌다. 본 논고에서 중권의 내용을 분석하였다. 속례를 따르던 불교의 상례를 수방비니(隨方毗尼)에 따라 새로이 만들었으며, 오복(五服)은 법의(法衣)의 뜻을 따라 오삼(五衫)이라고 한다. 감구효당(龕柩孝堂)은 자체불(自體佛)을 밝히는 일향일등(一香一燈)을 시설하고, 사리(śarīra)인 골신(骨身)의 전신 사리를 모시는 곳이다. 조위문(吊慰文)은 슬픈 마음과 비통한 용모를 지켜야하고 그 마음을 하얀 종이 위에 글로서 나타내야한다. 제문(祭文)은 죽은 이를 위한 글로서 반드시 고제(告祭)를 따라야 한다는 것이다. 이와 같은 구성과 내용은 "석문상의초" 상하권에 반영되었다. 특히 "오삼난야신학비용"의 저술 의도는 "석문상의초" 서문에 반영되고, 이후에 조선시대의 다비법 성립에 영향을 끼친다. 불교상장례의 의미와 절차는 "오삼난야신학비용"의 상례에 "석씨요람"의 장례법을 통합하여 "석문상의초"라는 다비의례서로 완성하게 된다. 다비를 한 후에 탑을 세우는 것은 원적(圓寂)을 이룬 상징이며 깨달음의 한 종류이다. "석문상의초"에서 상례와 장례를 하나로 묶는 편집은 한국불교다비법의 원형을 만들었다는데 큰 의의가 있다. 그리고 다비 후에 사리를 탑에 안치하는 것은 불교적 삶의 완성을 보이는 것이다. 특히 불서를 만들던 간경도감에서 다비법의 원형인 "오삼난야신학비용"을 판각하여 제작?보급하였다는데 또 다른 의의를 두어야 할 것이다.
