Tongdosa Temple is one of the three major temples in Korea, located at the foot of Yeongchuksan Mountain in Sunji-ri, Habuk-myeon. It is called a Buddhist temple because the Buddha’s sarira is enshrined there. According to the temple records, the temple was named Tongdosa because the shape of the mountain where the temple is located resembles Yeongchuksan Mountain in India where the Buddha preached. It was also named Tongdo because anyone who wants to become a monk must pass through these stairs, and because it symbolizes the salvation of all sentient beings by communicating with all truths. According to the record of Samguk Yusa regarding the founding of this temple, it was founded by Monk Jajang of Silla. This time, we will learn about the reason why Monk Jajang founded Tongdosa Temple on Yeongchuksan Mountain in the vast land of Silla. #Cho Yong-heon #Jajang Yulsa #Humanities on the Road ????Subscribe to the Humanities Brunch Channel YouTube ???? / @Humanities Brunch (Click the link and click the subscribe button!)
