| 摘要 | Won Buddhism is a modern Buddhist folk movement in South Korea, founded by Soe-tae San (1891-1943). The practice of Won Buddhism has two aspects: realization of buddha-nature and "time-less and placeless Zen." This means that the adherents of Won Buddhism seek to see the Buddha in all things and to live in accordance with this insight. This type of meditation is called timeless and placeless because it does not depend on specific meditation periods and balls, but is to be practiced always and everywhere. In Won Buddhism only one meditation object is used - a black circle on a white field, which symbolizes the cosmic body of Buddha, the dharmakaya. The name of the school is derived from this circle. Won Buddhism is not a purely monastic religion. Monks are permitted to marry. There are no specific ceremonies and rituals; an attempt is made to adapt to the needs of modern men and women. Thus the most important sutras were translated into easily understandable Korean. The followers of Won Buddhism are active in social and charitable work. In the postwar years they established numerous kindergartens, schools, and universities. Soe-tae San spent many of his youthful years in ascetic practice, until in 1915 he attained "great enlightenment." Nine disciples attached themselves to him to practice and study the Buddhist teachings. In 1924 he founded the Association for the Study of the Buddha-Dharma, which, however, remained quite limited in its effect during Japanese colonial rule. Only in 1946 were his teachings propagated, under the name Won Buddhism, throughout South Korea. Today Won Buddhism has many followers. |
