Download or read book The Orthodox Path of Seon written by Toeong Seongcheol and published by Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a translation of the book that records Seongcheol’s 性徹 (1912–1993) sermons to audience with his explanations. Seongcheol was one of the most renowned Seon monks in modern Korea, who also served as the supreme patriarch of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. He tried to recover the tradition of Korean Seon practice by organizing a Buddhist society at Bongamsa in 1947. He became the first head-monk (bangjang) of Haeinsa Monastery in 1967 and preached the dharma sermon for a hundred days (baegil beommun). He left many works, including the Han’guk Bulgyo ui beommaek (Dharma Lineages of Korean Buddhism, 1976) and the Bonji punggwang (Scenery of the Original Ground, 1982). This translation used the Seongcheol Seunim pyeongseok Seonmun jeongno (Seonmun jeongno with Seongcheol’s Annotation, 2015), consulting with the Jeongdok Seonmun jeongno (Perusal of Seonmun jeongno, 2022). The Seonmun jeongno 禪門正路 is a record of sermons that discuss the sudden awakening and hwadu investigation in Seon. It consists of nineteen chapters: (1) “To See Your Own Nature Is to Become a Buddha”; (2) “Sentient Beings Have Buddha Nature”; (3) “Two Types of Afflictions and False Thoughts”; (4) “Unsurpassed Perfect Enlightenment”; (5) “Realizing the Truth that All Dharmas Are Unborn”; (6) “No Thought Is the True Tenet”; (7) “Protecting No Mind”; (8) “Awake or Asleep, Being Consistent”; (9) “Gaining Life in Death”; (10) “Great Perfect Mirror-Like Wisdom”; (11) “Inside and Outside Are Brilliantly Clear”; (12) “Constantly Serene and Constantly Illuminating”; (13) “Discursive Awakening Followed by Gradual Cultivation”; (14) “Partial Penetration and Partial Attainment”; (15) “With Erudition There Is Only Discursive Knowledge”; (16) “Abrupt Exhaustion of All Contaminants”; (17) “A Clear-Eyed Patriarchal Master”; (18) “Mysteries and Essentials, Real and Provisional”; (19) “Eliminating the Seed of Buddhahood.” In this book, Seongcheol criticizes Bojo Jinul’s sudden awakening-gradual cultivation and insists the sudden awakening–sudden cultivation, which later triggered the intense debate of sudden and gradual in Korea.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project was designed to introduce the intellectual heritage of Korean Buddhism to all over the world by selecting representative works of Korean Buddhist tradition in various fields and publishing them in English. For a six-year period from 2018 to 2023, the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism supervised the project with the support of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and has been publishing ten representative Buddhist works in English. Buddhism has been the central axis of Korean culture and thought for thousands of years, and has exerted considerable influence to the present. Buddhism, which originated in India and settled here in Korea via China, maintains both local particularity and global universality. Various works on philosophy, history and culture of Korean Buddhism need to be published to introduce the originality and excellence of Korean Buddhism to the world. The Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism previously published The Collected Works of Modern Korean Buddhism(2017): English translations of carefully selected Korean Buddhist works as part of the Globalization Project of Korean Buddhism. Succeeding and further developing upon the previous undertaking, this project aims to inform the world of Korean Buddhism, which not only served as an indispensable spiritual asset for Korean people but also provided them with the locus of universal discourse. The ultimate goal of this project is to expand the worldwide base for Korean studies, promote the globalization of Korean Buddhism, and improve the “brand equity” of Korean tradition.

Download or read book Seon Thought in Korean Buddhism written by Jin’gak Hyesim, Jinjeong Cheonchaek and published by Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a translation of the bound volume of the Seonmun gangyo jip 禪門綱要集 (Collection of the Essential Outlines of the Seon School) and the Seonmun bojang nok 禪門寶藏錄 (Record of the Treasures of the Seon School), both of which are late Goryeo materials, essential for understanding the philosophical feature and identity of Korean Seon. The Seonmun bojang nok by the thirteenth-century master Jinjeong Cheonchaek 眞靜天頙 compiles the recorded sayings of Seon masters. Cheonchaek was the fourth patriarch of Baengnyeonsa 白蓮社 (White Lotus Society) of the Cheontae school. He also left the Hosan nok 湖山錄 (Literary Collection of Hasan). The Seonmun gangyo jip summurizes the essence of Seon though, and there is a controversy surrounding its authorship, in particular, whether the author was Cheonchaek or Jin’gak Hyesim 眞覺慧諶 (1178–1234). This book confirms as its author Hyesim, Bojo Jinul’s disciple, who promoted ganhwa Seon. The Seonmun gangyo jip of 1531 edition has survived. It consists of five chapters: “Chapter of the Three Saints”; “Conversation of the Two Worthies”; “Theory of a Foolish Man”; “Compilation of [Blue] Mountain and [White] Cloud”; and “Three Sentences of Yunmen.” The first three chapters discuss the essential thought of the Linji school. The Seonmun bojang nok was published in three volumes by Cheonchaek in 1293. It was published a few more afterwards. The first volume has “Discussing the Differences Between Seon and Doctrinal Buddhism in Twenty-Five Sections”; the second volume, “Wherein All Lecturers Revert to and Submit to [Seon] in Twenty-Five Sections”; the thrid volume, “Buddhist Lords and Ministers in Thirty-Nine Sections.” It is also well-known as the first material that records Jin’gwi 眞歸 josaseol, a theory that Seon was transmitted to Śākyamuni. These texts had a huge impact on Seon monks of Joseon, including Cheongheo Hyujeong.

Download or read book The Gyeongheo Collection Prose and Poetry by the Restorer of Korean Seon written by Gyeongheo and published by Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. This book was released on with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gyeongheo Collection is a collection of dharma talks and other literary works by Gyeongheo Seong’u 鏡虛惺牛(1849/1857–1912), one of the representative Korean Seon masters of modern times. Gyeongheo was tonsured at the age of nine, and he studied Buddhist doctrine on the one hand and promoted Ganhwa Seon practice on the other. Geongheo also established a meditation practice society. In his later years Gyeongheo dedicated himself to the edification of the common people in the northern area of the Korean peninsula. Among his prominent disciples are Hyewol 慧月 (1861–1937), Man’gong 滿空 (1871–1946), and Han’am 漢岩 (1876–1951). The Gyeongheo Collection is a significant work in that it enables us to see the process of evolution and transformation of Seon tradition during the period of modernization. This work consists of dharma talks, prefaces, records, letters, accounts of conduct, eulogies offered up to portraits of famous monks, hundreds of Seon verses (in both five character and seven character formats), and so forth. Among the poems written in regulated verses with five logographs per line, “How to Be a Monk” is a guide book of practice for monks and nuns. “The Pure Regulations” includes the rules and regulations of the Seon monastic community. The verses also contain unconventional features of Seon teaching. “The Song of the Way to Enlightenment” is the verse written on Gyeonheo’s attainment of the state of enlightenment. Besides, The Gyeonheo Collection contains essays on various topics, such as the exhaustive realization within one’s mind required in Ganhwa Seon practice, the adoption of Pure Land thought, the importance of monastic precepts and the Pure Rules, societies and movements focused on meditation, the synthesis of practice and doctrine, the edification of the masses and songs such as “Sŏn meditation” (Chamseon gok) introducing the daily life of Seon, the establishment of Seon monastic community and education, and so on. The base script for The Gyeongheo Collection is Han’am’s hand-copied edition (1931), which also includes a brief biography of Gyeongheo written by Han’am himself. For the translation, this script was compared to the printed edition published in 1943 by Jung’ang Seonwoen, which is prefaced by Han Yongun 韓龍雲(1879–1944), the prominent Korean monk and writer.

Download or read book The Sun over the Sea of Enlightenment written by Baek Yongseong and published by Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. This book was released on with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sun over the Sea of Enlightenment is one of the influential works by Baek Yongseong 白龍城 (1864–1940), the prominent Buddhist monk who revived Seon Buddhism and led the New Buddhism movement. This work offers an organized explanation of essential points of Buddhist doctrine and Seon practice. Baek Yongseong, who studied at the Three-Jewel monasteries of Korea, Tongdo Monastery 通度寺, Haein Monastery 海印寺, Songgwang Monastery 松廣寺, took the lead in the movement to establish the Imje Buddhist 臨濟宗 in 1911. He is also well known for having signed the Korean Declaration of Independence during the March First Movement as one of the thirty-three cultural and religious leaders. In 1920s, Baek Yongseong established the new religion of Daegakgyo (Teaching of Great Enlightenment) and translated Buddhist scriptures into modern Korean to spread Buddhism to the common people. He also played a significant role in founding the Seon monastic community to preserve and promote traditional Seon practice. In 1926, Baek Yongseong requested the Japanese Colonial Government to prohibit monastic marriage and meat-eating. The Sun over the Sea of Enlightenment is generally regarded the foudational scripture of Daegakgyo. Baek Yongseong explains in the preface that this work is so titled because the world of enlightenment applies to everything infinitely and equally just as does sunlight. This work is composed of sixty sections in three volumes and at the end the gist of the Platform Sutra of the Sixth Patriarch is added as an appendix along with its Korean translation. The first volume, consisting of the first eighteen sections, explains fundamental Buddhist doctrines and concepts such as tathāgatagarbha, consciousness-only, mind-only, cause and effect. The second volume, consisting of the next thirty-six sections, deals with contemplation practice and Ganhwa Seon, and offers the way to enlightenment describing that every phenomenon originates from the mind. The third volume, comprised of the remaining sections, suggests the right way of cultivating the mind by explaining how to do the meditative practice. The base text for the translation of this work is the printed edition published at Daegakgyodang in 1930.
