Theresa Ki-ja Kim may be contacted at theresa. He received his Ph. In addition, he directs a public service educational program on Buddhist art, and manages a public service program and museum annex designed to promote Korean contemporary artists. The conference papers were published by Yale University Press. She currently acts as academic advisor to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
In addition to his books, he has written numerous articles on Korean Buddhism and Korean Buddhist art.
Before the arrival of communism in China, Buddhism was the largest religion in the world. It has a unique place in Asian history as the single shared experience of most of the continent. Nothing else has equaled the degree to which it has affected Asian history and culture. So great is its presence in Korea that it is impossible to discuss Korean history and culture without considering Buddhism. Even non-Buddhist Koreans keep many customs that are Buddhist in origin and continue to be deeply influenced by Buddhist philosophy, even in their practice of other religions, maintaining an inextricable link that continues to shape Korean culture and art.
As I put the final touches on this issue, I come out of this experience deeply humbled. I hope to share with you the feeling of awe and the ambience of tranquility and purity that rewards the observant viewer of Korean Buddhist art. Thank you very much to all of the authors in this issue.

The collection also includes many fine works of Buddhist art from other countries.
They also have a great collection of art that is not Buddhist, some of which will be on display in their upcoming exhibition of Joseon Dynasty porcelain. Twenty years ago, Anyangam was slated for demolition, until the owner of the Museum of Korean Buddhist Art, Dae Sung Kwon see photo on previous page fought and won a protracted and self-funded legal battle to save it from the wrecker's ball and preserve it with its original antique paintings and sculpture intact.
It is a living museum and a treasured oasis that is now a government designated and protected cultural property in the mountains of Seoul. Several works of art displayed in the temple are also government-designated cultural assets. We all owe a great debt of gratitude to Dae Sung Kwon, a Korean hero. He and his two sons, Do Kyun and Hyung Don see photos below have always been gracious hosts whenever I visit.
I am sure you will also experience the generosity of this proud and wonderful family when you visit their amazing museum and temple in Seoul. Please tell them that the Korean Art Society sent you. About Buddhism Buddhism is a philosophy of life expounded by Gautama Siddhartha who is also called Sakyamuni Buddha , who lived and taught in northern India in the 6th Century B.
The Buddha was not a god and the philosophy of Buddhism does not entail any theistic world view. The teachings of the Buddha are aimed solely to liberate sentient beings from suffering. Gautama Buddha taught the four noble truths: that there is suffering, that suffering has a cause, that suffering has an end, and that there is a path that leads to the end of suffering.
He saw that all phenomena in life are impermanent and that our attachment to the idea of substantial and enduring self is an illusion which is the principle cause of suffering. Freedom from self liberates the heart from greed, hatred and delusion and opens the mind to wisdom and the heart to kindness and compassion. Please click on the links in this paragraph to learn more. The term Buddha Sanskrit: "Enlightened One" is a title rather than a name, and Buddhists believe that there are an infinite number of past and future Buddhas for example, Amitabha Buddha, Maitreya Buddha, and so on.
He is said to have lived a sheltered life of luxury that was interrupted when he left the palace and encountered an old man, a sick man, and a corpse. Renouncing his princely life, he spent seven years seeking out teachers and trying various ascetic practices, including fasting, to gain enlightenment. Unsatisfied with the results, he meditated beneath the bodhi tree, where, after temptations by Mara, he realized the Four Noble Truths and achieved enlightenment.
At Sarnath, he preached his first sermon to his companions, outlining the Eightfold Path, which offered a middle way between self-indulgence and self-mortification and led to the liberation of nirvana. The five ascetics who heard this sermon became his first disciples and were admitted as bhiksus monks into the sangha or Buddhist order.

On the right side, there stands Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, who symbolizes mercy, and on the left side, there stands Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva, who symbolizes wisdom. The bamboo stalk visible on the right side is another Goryeo Dynasty convention. Sudhana is also in a more prominent position on the left side of the painting.
The inscription in the rectangular cartouche at the bottom of the painting provides information concerning the production of the painting. The wok was commissioned in by, among others, five married couples who donated the materials, such as the silk and pigments. The year is recorded using a Chinese Qing Dynasty reighn date eighth year of Yongzheng , a customary practice in Korea until the mid-nineteenth century. The inscription includes a felicitation to the reigning monarch, King Youngjo r.
The last of these rituals, as with all Buddhist paintings, would have been the Chomansik, or eye-dotting ceremony, at which the eyes of the deity were painted, thus completing the composition as well as the process of consecrating the image as a devotional object. The typical feature of Sakyamuni Buddha shown in the statue of Buddha or in the Buddhist painting is that his right hand is always downward, touching the ground with his compassion, oppressing devils in the ground, and summoning the earth as his witness. The Buddha in this painting is Amitabha Buddha, who governs the heaven in the western universe.

Beside Amitabha Buddha, there stand 6 bodhisattvas and 4 disciples out of the 10 disciples of Sakyamuni Buddha, listening to the sermon delivered by Amitabha Buddha. Amitabha Buddha is in the middle and there stands Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva on the right, who always puts on garland and who has the vase with the purest water in the world, and there stands Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva on the left, whose wish is to lead people in hell into heaven. Behind the two bodhisattvas, there stand two disciples, Kasyapa who is on the right side and Aniruddha who is on the left side out of the ten disciples of Sakyamuni Buddha.
Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has 10 servant kings. Among them, the 5th king called Yama the king of hell is well-known and stems from the old Indian Hindu Sutra, Veda. The special feature of this painting is that the Big Dipper Buddha here is not accompanied by the seven star gods, Chilsong, that you usually see in other Big Dipper paintings. Tathagatha Banner Painting mid 19th Century, Hermit Painting mid 19th Century, This painting depicts the quiet mental world of the Buddhist hermit in a peaceful way.
Many temples in Korea have worshiped the great master and his portrait was often painted for hundreds of years. Portrait of the Great Master Donghwadang late 18th Century, The style of this painting is much influenced by that of traditional Korean folk paintings. The most interesting point of this portrait is that this painting left the space in the upper part of the left side blank. This blank space was supposed to be filled with letters that deliver achievements of the great master. With this blank space, we can have a lesson of Zen Buddhism.

Indra Painting the 22nd year of King Youngjo , Buddhism absorbed Indra, and Indra became a guardian of Buddha and Buddhism. Especially in Korea, where there have been many invasions from China and Japan, Indra was highly worshiped, owing to the omnipotent power to make devils surrender. The painting record states that it was made in , sponsored by soldiers in Jeolla Province. Mountain God Painting early 19th Century, Temples in Korea were mostly located in the middle of mountains. Besides ordinary Korean people, even Buddhist monks worshiped the mountain god, who might be the owner of the mountain and could provide longevity and good health.
