『금강경』에 나타난 ‘붓다 대화법’의 교육적 의미와 구조 고찰

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the educational meaning of the Buddha´s dialogue method through Diamond Sūtra on the premise of the irrationality between Buddhism and moral education. The Buddha dialog method corresponds to the mind of the Buddha itself, in which the teacher Buddha, who has reached his own enlightenment, teaches according to each ability and situation so that the same enlightenment as him can be realized to his disciples. In this respect, the Buddha´s teachings in Diamond Sūtra share the formality and meaning of the early scriptures´ Buddha dialog method. In terms of formality, this suggests that the real intention of enlightenment explained in Diamond Sūtra can be considered in terms of practical theory, focusing on the content and meaning of the Buddha´s dialog method that appeared in the early scriptures. Therefore, the analysis of the educational meaning of Diamond Sūtra through the Buddha dialog method considered in this study is an interpretation of the structure and meaning of the teachings of Diamond Sūtra that lead to complete happiness, that is, the teachings of Diamond Sūtra on enlightenment, from the perspective of educational theory. In this respect, the constant persuasion of the Buddha to lead Subori to the world of enlightenment, that is, the positives and negatives, questions and answers in the dialogue between the Buddha and Subori, have the form of an acting double structure. And this means that the teachings of Diamond Sūtra, which make the world´s Sūnya(空) the essence of enlightenment, also structures the educational meaning of the Buddha´s dialog method.
