신라오대산 기록에서 확인되는 上院寺와 月精寺의 分節 양상 검토

Abstract

There are two distinctive temples in Silla Odaesan: Sangwonsa(上院寺) and Woljeongsa(月精寺). Although Sangwonsa was the center of the faith, Woljeongsa was the temple that oversaw the entire Odaesan Mountain. This double structure is different from that found in general mountain temples. This is because Sangwonsa Temple was established first and then Woljeongsa Temple was established. Although Shilla Odaesan was founded by Jajang(慈藏), its religious structure was established by Bocheon(寶川) and Hyomyeong(孝明). At the site of Sangwonsa Temple, the two monks had a religious experience in which Mañjuśri bodhi-sattva transformed into 36 kinds of shape, and 50,000 Bodhisattvas appeared on the peaks of Mt. Odae. In this way, Sangwonsa Temple was founded in 705, and the Odaesan Manjinbul faith(五臺五萬眞身信仰) was established by the two. After Bocheon and Hyomyeong, Sinhyo(信孝) established a new temple at the entrance of Mt. Odae, where Jajang had once stayed. This temple developed to Woljeongsa later. In other words, the Odaesan has an aspect centered on Sangwonsa by Bocheon and Hyomyeong after Jajang, the originator, and the other aspect on Woljeongsa, which was led by Sinhyo. These two flows of temple were later integrated into one in the overall structure of Mt. Odae. Therefore, even if the Mt. Odae started from one origin were developed in a different way, the segmental structures of Sangwonsa Temple and Woljeongsa Temple were integrated and completed later rather than being separated away through expansion and development.
