This is a caption prepared by Buddhist monk Muyeo for foreigners visiting Jeondeungsa Temple. Aristotle, an ancient Greek philosopher, said, "Human beings are beings who live happiness as a goal of life." I also want to happy, so I did renunciate the secular life to become Buddhist monk. Today's temple is Jeondeungsa Temple in Ganghwa-gun, Incheon. First, it is because it has the longest history among existing temples. Second, it designated as a treasure such as Daeungjeon Hall, Medicine Buddha Hall, and Temple Bell Pavilion. Third, it is because it is a historically important temple where there is a Jeongjoksan mountain depository of Josun dynastic annals that kept the real records. Samrangseong Fortress (Jeongjoksanseong Fortress) originally had four gates in the east, west, north, and south. Among them, the east and south gates are used so far, and they are used instead of the One Pillar Gate. Inside the east gate, General Yang Heonsu's victory monument is erected. Inchon Monument No. 36 was built in 1873 (the 10th year of King Gojong's reign) to commemorate the achievement of General Yang Heonsu (1816-1888), who defeated the French army during the war and saved the country from the crisis. Nammun gate is the only place where the gate pavilion is located, and the gate pavilion of the south gate is called Jonghaeru Pavilion. If you climb 50 meters pass Jonghaeru Pavilion and look to the left, you will see sarira-stupa of the previous Seon monks of Jeondeungsa Temple. Yoonjangdae is the regular octagonal turning wheel of a bookcase is designed to rotate like a top, and it has a Buddhist scripture inside. Turning it around means reading the Buddhist scripture once. Jukrim Dawon is a traditional tea restaurant in the precinct of Jeondeungsa Temple, which boasts history and tradition. The exterior of the teahouse, which is harmonized with a small pond, has a elegant and cozy atmosphere, and it is a good place to chat with a different feeling. You can enjoy a variety of traditional tea and simple refreshments together. Haeuso is a communal lavatory of the temple, meaning it is a place to relieve anxiety. It's also called the place where the anguish disappears. Museoljeon Hall is a no preaching hall. The interior is an exotic Buddhist sanctuary and complex cultural space that has been created as a modern space. The space enshrined in the main Buddha is a dome shape, creating a cozy atmosphere. After trying to mural the wall here, painter Oh Wonbae made it using Western fresco techniques. Buddhist sanctuary etiquette: The middle door called entrance of the Buddha Hall is not used for believers, only side doors are used for believers. When entering a Buddhist hall, they take off their hats, wear socks, and worship. Sakyamuni Buddha: Sakyamuni means the sage of Shakya clan, and is rendered as capability and kindness, that is “能仁" in Chinese. Samantabhadra is a Bodhisattva representing Sakyamuni Buddha's “haengwon”, and it is famous for the attendant Bodhisattva of Sakyamuni Buddha with Manjushri. The obligation of Samantabhadra is to establish a great aspiration of people’s benefits based on the main power of all Buddha. This is called “haengwon” of Samantabhadra, and In a word, if you summarize the meaning of haengwon, It is ten great vows. Ksitigarbha is a Bodhisattva who saves the suffering of the dead in hell. In order to save those suffering in hell, he enters hell and edifies and saved those who have sinned. Manjushri is a Bodhisattva, symbol of wisdom. He has always been a symbol of transcendent wisdom as a person who has made transcendent wisdom widely known. Avalokitesvara is a Bodhisattva who saves the people with mercy, and as soon as the people call out his name, it immediately turns into 33 kinds of incarnations and saves them. The painting of Sinjung is not concerned with a direct object of faith, such as the Buddha or Bodhisattva. It means that protect the object of faith and the person of faith. The multiple divine guardians are not only defend the orthodox dharma but also defend a fatherland. They pledge to distribute and protect the Buddha-dharma after returning to Buddhism. According to the origin of Jeondeungsa Temple, it was first established by a Buddhist monk named preceptor Ado in 381 in the 11th year of King Sosurim of Goguryeo during the Three Kingdoms Period. Then, it can say that it has the longest history among the existing temples in Korea. At that time, the name of the temple was Jinjongsa Temple. It said that a temporary temple built in the precincts of Jinjongsa Temple in 1259, 46th year of the reign of King Gojong of the Goryeo Dynasty, and later rebuilt greatly. Meanwhile, in 8 years and 1282 years of King Chungnyeol's reign, Goryeo suffered under influence of the Yuan Dynasty. Princess Jekukdaejang of the Yuan Dynasty kicked out Queen Jeonghwa, who is the wife of King Chungnyeol, and took the queen's place. Queen Jeonghwa was so sad and miserable that she relied on Buddhism to soothe her sorrow. And it said that she dedicated a jade lantern and a colonoscopy to Jinjongsa Temple. Since then, Jinjongsa Temple has renamed Jeondeungsa Temple. Jeondeungsa means to help the world by spreading Buddhist teachings, just as lighting lanterns to defeat the darkness. Daeungbojeon Hall is in the center of Jeondeungsa Temple. Sakyamuni Buddha in the world of suffering is in the center of Daeungbojeon Hall. Daeungjeon Hall, designated as Treasure No. 178, is a multi-complex bracket with a three-room on the front and three-room on the side with a hip roof. The hall has a multi complex bracket of supporting the eaves of the roof is not only on the pillars, but also between the pillars. The multi complex bracket style said to common in architectural styles after the late Goryeo Dynasty. Daeungjeon Hall here built-in 1615 and completed in 1622. Nabusang is a sculpture supporting the roof of Daeungjeon Hall. This sculpture is a nabusang meaning a sculpture of naked woman. Here comes a legend. Legend has it that master builder who is in charge of reconstuction of the Daeungjeon Hall, carved it with a sense of betrayal of the woman who ran away even before the Daeungjeon Hall built. Jeongjoksan mountain depository of Josun dynastic annals refers to a pavilion that holds historical records, important books and documents of the country during the Goryeo and Joseon Dynasties. During the Joseon Dynasty, Josun dynastic annals installed in Chunchugwan Hall in the palace, Chungju in Chungcheong-do, Seongju in Gyeongsang-do, and Jeonju in Jeolla-do. In addition to the Chunchugwan Hall, these Josun dynastic annals in Chungju, Seongju, and Jeonju called three major depository of dynastic annals, and kept the records of the past distributed here. However, while the Japanese Invasion of Korea destroyed Chunchugwan, Chungju, and Seongju dynastic annals, Jeonju version was the only dynastic annals preserved. In 1660 (the 1st year of King Hyeonjong's reign), the depository of Jeongjoksan Mountain in Ganghwa built and the Jeonju version of the Manisan mountain dynastic annals stored here. Only the signboard called 'Jangsagak' Pavilion and 'Seowonbogak' Pavilion preserved in Jeondeungsa Temple, which shows reality the time. The ruins of Jangsagak Pavilion restored in 1999 and restored to its original state. The Annals of the Joseon Dynasty designated as National Treasure No. 151 on December 31, 1973, and registered as UNESCO Memory of the World Register on October 1, 1997. Currently, the dynastic annals kept in Kyujanggak, Seoul National University. The current Jeongjoksan depository restored in 1999. Jeondeungsa Temple Bell is the bell of Jeondeungsa Temple during the Northern Song Dynasty is Treasure No. 393. At the top of the bell, there are two dragons crouching from the left and right sides. The shape is solemn, the sculpture is grand, and the sound is clear. This temple bell was originally in Sungmyeongsa Temple of Baekamsan Mountain in Henan Province during the Song Dynasty, and made in 1097. The bell confiscated to make a weapon in the Japanese occupation. After Korea's liberation from Japan's colonial rule, a large bell was found in the military arsenal of Bupyeong, and that's what this bell. The Yaksajeon Hall is Treasure No. 179 and the Yakjeon Hall, like the Daeungjeon Hall, has a single-story with a three-room on the front and three-room on the side with a hip roof. The hall belongs to the style of multi complex bracket. The construction period is about 1621. The Buddha here is Medicine Buddha who can cure-all diseases. I believe that if someone with a disease prays here, it will get better. So far, I have toured the Daeungjeon Hall of Jeondeungsa Temple, Yaksajeon Hall, temple bell, and Jeongjoksan Mountain depository. Looking at this place, where we have always been together for a thousand years, and the rise and fall of our country, my heart becomes solemn by itself. Why don't we put down all the worries and take a break here when our lives feel difficult? You can never be happy as long as you are greedy. True happiness can feel when you stop and empty your mind. Thank you very much for accompanying me in my free time and relaxation.
