慈藏의 新羅五臺山 開建에 대한 타당성 검토(Ⅱ) − 閔漬의 <第一祖師傳記>를 중심으로 −

Abstract

This paper is to review Jajang’s establishment of Odaesan which is very significant in his journey to Myeongju. In relation with Odaesan, there is 『Odaesan Sajeoggi(五臺山事蹟記)』 written in 1307 by Minji a civil vassal of late Goryeo Dynasty in addition to Ilyeon’s 『Samgug Yusa』. Minji recorded Jajang's story about his establishment of Odaesan in<Jeil Josa Jeongi(第一祖師傳記)>. In that the date difference between Ilyeon and Minji is relatively small and that Minji was asked by Odaesan Temple to record<Jeil Josa Jeongi>, he seems to have read more materials in relation with Odaesan than Ilyeon. Therefore, while comparing it with the record by Ilyeon, this paper tries to find out the characteristics and significances of Minji's record. As a result, three new findings could be obtained as follows: First, in the resultant viewpoint that Jajang could not have met Mañjuśri personally when he was opening the Odaesan, Minji revised the story that Mañjuśri had recommended Jajang just to visit Korean Odaesan and promised to meet at Galbancheo(葛蟠處). Second, the Odaesan-related records have some discrepancy between ‘Jeogmyeol Bogung(寂滅寶宮) of Jungdae(中臺)’ and ‘Woljeongsa(月精寺)’. In them, the record of Jungdae Bogung must be a religious embellishment of later generations. Third, when the problem of uncertainty in relation with the establishment of Odaesan emerged because Jajang failed to meet Mañjuśri personally in Odaesan, Minji solved it with a more concrete way of ‘8-Chug Bang(尺房)’. Through this work, this paper suggests a more coherent solution for Jajang's establishment of Odaesan as well as some uncertainties in Jajang's life.
