나옹혜근의 고려말 불교 주도와 여말선초 나옹혜근 문도의 활약

Abstract

Among the three monks of the Late Goryeo Dynasty, Gyeonghan, Bowoo, and Hyegeon, the one who actually led the Buddhist society was Hyegeon, the mentor of King Gongmin. In the background of Hyegeon leading Buddhism in the late Goryeo Dynasty, there were the halo of Jigong, the 108th of the Indian Lineage, the examiner of Kunghu zen, which was supervised by King Gongmin, and the friendliness of the people. When he died, many miracles appeared, and he left many relics, which the people enthusiastically commemorated. Songkwang temple and Hoiam temple are very important temples among the temples that Hyegeon stayed at after becoming the mentor of king and where Hyegeon’s leading disciples became the chief priest. Songkwang temple was called the best temple of Korea as the representative temple of Sakulsanmoon, which produced many monks of the Sooseon Temple Lineage, including Jinul who represented the Zen sect of the middle Goryeo Dynasty. At the end of the Goryeo Dynasty, Naong Hyegeon and his disciples, Hwanam Honsoo, Muhak Jacho, Hyeam Sangchong, and Gobong Beobjang became the chief priest at the temple. Honsoo, who succeeded Hyegeon's Zen Linage, and Jacho, who inherited the genealogy of the three monks become the chief priest at Songkwang temple. Today, 16 National Preceptors of Songkwang temple are called 16 National Preceptors by adding Gobong Beobjang, excluding Hwanam Honsoo, a National Preceptor. This is because, although Beobjang was not a National Preceptor, he was enshrined in the house of National Preceptors as an important figure who rebuilt Songkwang temple in the early Joseon Dynasty. Gisan said that in The History of Songkwang temple, Hwanam Honsoo is included in the 16 National Preceptors of Songkwang temple instead of Gobong Beobjang, and Naong and Muhak succeeded the law of the Suseonsagye after Bojo. By examining the historical background of the 16 National Preceptors, the necessity of changing the perception of the history of the 16 National Preceptors is raised. Songkwang temple is a temple that has continued the Lineage of domestic Jogye Zen of ‘Jinul-…-Hyegeon-Honsoo’, and Hoiam temple is a temple that has continued the Lineage of the three monks, ‘Jigong-Naong-Muhak’. If ‘Hyegeon-Honsoo’ is the transmission of Zen, ‘Hyegeon-Jacho’ is the people-friendly transmission of enlightenment. Since Hoiam temple was ruined and disappeared, Songkwang temple should now become the central temple encompassing the Lineage of Jogye Zen and the three monks.
