월산의 생애와 사상

Abstract

This review is an article that summarizes the life and thoughts of Wolsan (월산, 1913∼1997), a Korean Buddhist monk who left an important mark in Korean modern Buddhist history, in a historical context. Wolsan was active in Gyeongju Buddhism and Bulguksa dioceses in the latter half of his life, serving as the master of Bulguksa Temple. And he served as the head of the Jogye Order's important headquarters, its chief executive officer, and the head of the Wonro, but there has been little research on him so far. So this article has the nature of the introduction to his research. So in this review, I tried to describe the following aspects. First, the process and nature of the performance of Wolsan were organized. described on the basis of literary evidence and reliable testimony Second, I organized my role in the Buddhist purification movement. Wolsan, along with his benefactor, Geum-oh(금오), was at the forefront of the purification movement, which he was a working-level official. Third, the entire contents of the duties of the Jogye Order were compiled. He served as the head of Beopju Temple, Donghwa Temple, Shinheungsa Temple, and Bulguksa Temple. He served as the president of the General Affairs Office and the president of the Wonro Office, and was involved in various activities, including the creation of the newspaper. Fourth, I came up with the Buddhist idea of Wolsan. I saw prehistoric and centrist thought as the focal point of his thought. However, I hope this review will serve as a reference to the understanding of Wolsan's life and thoughts, the history of Bulguksa in modern times, and the history of Wolsan Mundo.
