The introductionof Won Buddhism to the United States has reached its fifty-year mark. Brought to the West by Korean kyomus (Won Buddhist clergy), these initial Won Buddhist clergy set a foundation for future ordained devotees to reside in America and further the religion's mission. Innovation has always played an important role in the formation and growth of Won Buddhism. The founder, Sotaesan, declared the necessity to reform traditional Buddhism to make it accessible to the laity and espoused values such as inclusiveness, equality, public work, and practicality. Over the past few decades, these innovations have helped Won Buddhism in America to shift from a strictly ethnic-related context to an emphasis on its universal nature. However, as the religion continues achieving a foothold in Western soil, critical questions arise such as how can Won Buddhism honor its Korean origins while becoming increasingly international? What are the detriments to decontextualizing and de-emphasizing elements thought to be "too Korean" or "too traditional," or thought to be irrelevant in the West? When Buddhism spreads to a new country, it not only influences the culture it enters but is also shaped by the adopting culture. In American history, this has often meant the erasure of Asian cultures that were home to Buddhism for millennia and from which the dharma is inextricable. I argue in this article that if Won Buddhism is to thrive in the United States conscious consideration will have to be given to the indispensable aspects of its Korean roots and tradition while connecting with the current circumstance in fresh, relevant, and effective ways that include the multi-cultural and ethnic makeup of the US. This entails understanding American history and Asian Buddhism's history in America, as well as cultivating a competency or fluency in the cultures that allowed Won Buddhism to survive for decades.

이병헌은 27세 때부터 면우 곽종석을 스승으로 섬겨 한주학(寒洲學)과 접한다. 한주학파는 당시로서는 개방적인 성향을 보였다는 점에서 이병헌의 사상 형성에 일정한 영향을 끼쳤을 것임을 짐작할 수 있다. 이병헌은 중국 강유위(康有爲)의 금문경학(今文經學)을 받아들이고 공자교(孔子敎) 운동을 전개하면서 성리학을 오히려 배척하였다. 서구문물을 접하고 강유위의 사상을 받아들인 뒤로 이병헌의 저술에서 한주학은 찾아볼 수 없다. 이병헌이 금문경학을 연구하게 된 것은 천(天), 상제(上帝) 대신 리(理)를 내세움으로써 유교를 철학으로 만든 성리학(性理學)을 떠나야 유교에 종교성을 다시 살려낼 수 있었기 때문이었다. 그리하여 그는 공자를 교조로 추숭하고, 지금까지 성리학에서 중시하던 리(理), 경(敬)과 같은 개념을 버리고 "중용"의 성(誠)과 신(神)을 매우 중시하였다. 그리고 그 자신이 유교를 종교화하여 기도, 염송(念誦)과 같은 종교생활을 실천하였다. 그가 "중용"의 대효(大孝)를 하늘의 효자로 보아야 한다고 주장하였는데, 이는 기독교의 영향을 받은 것이 분명하다. 그는 유교를 종교로 만들기 위해 공자를 유일한 교조로 삼고 상제를 신으로 받들었다. 그가 요(堯) 순(舜) 우(禹) 탕(湯) 문(文) 무(武) 주공(周公) 등 전통 유가의 성인들을 젖혀두고 공자만을 교조로 추숭한 것은 불교, 기독교 등 의 종교에 교주가 한 사람이기 때문에 그렇게 한 것다. 그가 말하는 상제(上帝)는 기독교의 하느님과 통하는 것이었고, 나아가서 그는 유교 사상과 배치되는 불교의 윤회를 긍정하기도 하였다. 이병헌의 "경설(經說)"을 읽어보면, 유학이 망해가는 시대에 유학이 생존할 길을 찾기 위해 유학의 종교화를 선택한 것보다 유학이 종교라는 신념이 그의 내면에 더 먼저 자리했던 것 같다.

Recently, there is an increasing criticism both inside and outside China toward the eco-migration projects. The author focuses on the eco-migration of Sanjiangyuan National Nature Reserve as a case study as it is one of the main eco-migration projects. At the end of 2010, government invested 4.47 billion CNY in eco-migration and relocated the immigration 55773 people in 10733 units. Benefits of eco-migration is obvious, however, it needs to be recognized that in the aspect of environment justice, it is unfair to sacrifice a group of people in the process of environmental protection because costs and benefits result from the environmental protection have to share among the people without discrimination. Local herdsmen received extra disadvantages in their level of material possessions, social and cultural values and the social inclusion after eco-migration project. As a part of the eco-social system established within several centuries, the local herdsmen are not only threateners to local ecology system, but also the guardians to the natural environment through religion and habits last for generations. The social and cultural values, traditional religion and Nomadic living habits, as important as the environment, are need to be cherished and protected.

지명 고찰, 사찰팔경의 의미 분석 그리고 바위글씨의 지시내용과 성격 분류 등을 토대로, 한국 문화 DNA의 하나인 유불선 삼교통섭의 의미경관이 김천 청암사 경역에서 어떠한 방식으로 인식되며 표출되고 있는 지를 확인할 목적으로 시도된 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 청암사가 위치한 곳은 조선 중기 대표적 유자(孺子)인 한강(寒岡) 정구(鄭逑, 1543~1620)가 경영한 무흘구곡의 상류부로서, 일제강점기 청암사 주지 벽암(碧庵) 이덕진(李德珍, 1896~?)이 제영한 청암사팔경의 대상과도 중복된다. 청암사를 품은 배후 산의 산명(山名)인 불령산(佛靈山)을 비롯하여 수도산(修道山), 선령산(仙靈山)과 신선대(神仙臺) 등의 지명 병용(倂用)과 청암사원(靑巖寺院), 청암사팔경, 불령동천(佛靈洞天), 나무아미타불[南無阿漏隋佛], 호계(虎溪), 여산폭포(廬山瀑布), 세진암(洗塵巖) 등 다양한 속성의 바위글씨는 사찰영역에 혼재된 유교와 선교의 공존을 보여준다. 특히 청암사 계곡 호계와 경내 조성된 삼소천(三笑泉)은 중국 장시성의 여산동림사에서 비롯된 호계삼소(虎溪三笑)의 고사를 통한 유불선 3교 회통의 상징 경물로 구현되고 있다. 또한 청암사에는 신(神)과의 교섭이란 숭고한 장소성을 보이는 여산폭포와 이를 각자(刻字)한 바위글씨 그리고 여산교(廬山橋)가 존재한다. 이와 같이 청암사에는 불교적 배타성에서 벗어나 삼교 화합과 공존을 상징하는 호계삼소의 정신을 담은 유불선 통섭의 문화가 다양한 층위(層位)로 녹아있다. 더욱이 승가(僧家)의 실천내용으로 알려진 '육화경법(六和敬法)' 중 제3계율인 "자기주장만 내세우고 남의 주장을 무시하지 마라"라는 '의화동사(意和同事)'의 교리는 호계삼소의 정신과 맞닿아 있다. 호계삼소와 구곡동천(九曲洞天) 및 팔경(八景)의 문화경관으로 채색된 김천 청암사는 도불(道佛) 뿐만 아니라 유불(儒彿) 더 나아가서 삼교(三敎) 수용의 문화가 녹아있는 유불선 통섭의 명소로 부족함이 없다.

This study offers an analysis of how Protestant Christianity in South Korea incorporated many beliefs and practices of Korean traditional religions in order to make the new faith more appealing to the masses. The paper also examines the way in which specific Protestant doctrines and practices were modified or accentuated to suit the disposition of the Korean people. In agreement with Confucianism, for example, Protestant churches in general emphasized the values of diligence, self-cultivation, righteous living, and, most importantly, filial piety. By overtly and subtly permitting ancestral rites to be conducted by Christians, moreover, Protestant Christianity evaded successfully the potential alienation of the tradition-bound Koreans. From Buddhism, Protestant Christianity syncretized such elements as the daily dawn prayer and all-night prayer as well as the practices of baekilgido ("a hundred-day prayer") and chunilgido ("a thousand-day prayer"). Hundreds of prayer centers that exist deep in the mountains also manifest a Buddhist influence. Shamanistic influences are also evident in Korean Protestantism, replete with the latter's emphasis on this-worldly success (health, prosperity, long life, etc.), faith healing, and conceptualization of God as being merciful and generous. What all of this reveals is that Christian conversion in South Korea did not involve an exclusivistic change of religious affiliation, meaning that it did not require the repudiation of traditionally held beliefs. Instead, millions of South Koreans eagerly embraced Protestant Christianity precisely because the new faith was advanced as an extension or continuation of traditional religious practices.

This article examines the process of how Daesoon thought keeps its own identity while being practiced as a religion in Korean culture through the perspective of theological hermeneutics of E. Schillebeeckx, a representative theologian in 20th century, especially on the centering of the matter of experience. Schillebeeckx says that an experience is an occurrence of perception by encountering something different from oneself. According to him, 1) the occurrence of perception is premised on a framework or form of interpretation which prescribes experience as the experience in the perceptive dimension. 2) A framework of interpretation is subject to pre-existing system or structure which already has formed a basis to the experience. It consists of various interpretative elements such as social form, general knowledges, various experiences, theoretical models in their society, etc.. 3) The experiences take place in the reflection of contemporary situation, and it is understood by a society, thus making it a social stream. This experience is expressed historically, gains historicity in the process of being handed down from person to person, from generation to generation. In this way, an experience starts to form a tradition. 4) The tradition is a historical stream which gives rise to, admits, and integrates various experiences, religious revelation, and faith etc. In this way, the tradition as a historical stream becomes a field of religious actuality such as revelation, salvation, etc. Conclusively, a religion takes place, is formed, only when it is understood anew by the people who live in that cultural tradition through their languages. The ground Daesoon thought takes place, is formed, is in this way. Daesoon thought takes place in the core of traditional Korean culture, undergoes changes when it encounters the other stream of traditional Korean culture, and the vice versa. Because of this inevitable change, ironically enough, Daesoon thought can maintain its own identity as Daesoon thought, and Korean culture its own identity as Korean culture, avoiding falling into the tertiary which is neither Daesoon thought nor Korean culture. It is in this way that any religion can be in the faithfulness to its starting point to be enriched and transformed in its interaction with the other tradition. At here is the reason Daesoon thought has to have an openness to the changing world.
