금강산의 사찰전승에서 聖의 引入과 俗의 배척 양상 - 聖境지향을 중심으로

Abstract

The narratives we've discussed so far have been linked to 'holyness'. Not just the speaker's own belief, but, trying to get the public to understand how sacred the mountain is. In order to make Mt. Geumgang a sacred place, the monks chose to rely on Buddhist scriptures from early times. Claiming that Mt. Geumgang in Bulgyeong and Mt. Geumgang in Korea are the same, it has helped greatly to sanctify Mt. Geumgang. On the other hand, the sacredness of Mt. Geumgang was expressed through the narrative. To be specific, the Yoo Jum Temple, Bodeok Temple stories attract sacredness to Mt. Geumgang, while Geumdong Temple, Young Won Temple stories reject divinity. The arrival of 53 ministries at Yugyeom Temple refers to the arrival of saints in India. The story of the Bodeok Cave is summed up as a self-aware site of Mt. Geumgang, a place where the government fails to live due to lingering expectations, while Mt. Geumgang becomes a place where the government reborn itself as the owner of the Bodeok Cave. The story of Yoo Jum Temple, Young Won Temple, Geumdong Temple stories deals with the dirty of Mt. Kumgang and its healing. According to the story of Geumdong, Geumdong follows false religion, and after a confrontation, he is ousted from Mt. Kumgang. Geumdong reveals the structure of Mt. Geumgang, Naong and Jigong, along with the celestial sphere. The Yugyeom Temple story shows how a Buddhist monk who disregards sacred statues from India is punished, and the story of Young Won Temple shows the will of heaven to expel a Buddhist monk who does not observe the rules and even incinerate a temple that has been defiled by him. The two stories clearly illustrate how the sacredness of Mt. Geumgang has been preserved from the common secular pollution. The folktales so far contain a common outline that the two sides have established a confrontation between sacred and vulgarity and have kept the mountain's scenic beauty in spite of the insubordineness.
