  • Imagining Ritual and Cultic Practice in Koguryŏ Buddhism
    International Journal of Korean History (Vol.19 No.2, Aug. 2014) 169 Imagining Ritual and Cultic Practice in Koguryŏ Buddhism Richard D. McBride II* Introduction The Koguryŏ émigré and Buddhist monk Hyeryang was named Bud- dhist overseer by Silla king Chinhŭng (r. 540–576). Hyeryang instituted Buddhist ritual observances at the Silla court that would be, in continually evolving forms, performed at court in Silla and Koryŏ for eight hundred years. Sparse but tantalizing evidence remains of Koguryŏ’s Buddhist culture: tomb murals with Buddhist themes, brief notices recorded in the History of the Three Kingdoms (Samguk sagi 三國史記), a few inscrip- tions on Buddhist images believed by scholars to be of Koguryŏ prove- nance, and anecdotes in Memorabilia of the Three Kingdoms (Samguk yusa 三國遺事) and other early Chinese and Japanese literary sources.1 Based on these limited proofs, some Korean scholars have imagined an advanced philosophical tradition that must have profoundly influenced * Associate Professor, Department of History, Brigham Young University-Hawai‘i 1 For a recent analysis of the sparse material in the Samguk sagi, see Kim Poksun 金福順, “4–5 segi Samguk sagi ŭi sŭngnyŏ mit sach’al” (Monks and monasteries of the fourth and fifth centuries in the Samguk sagi). Silla munhwa 新羅文化 38 (2011): 85–113; and Kim Poksun, “6 segi Samguk sagi Pulgyo kwallyŏn kisa chonŭi” 存疑 (Doubts on accounts related to Buddhism in the sixth century in the Samguk sagi), Silla munhwa 新羅文化 39 (2012): 63–87. 170 Imagining Ritual and Cultic Practice in Koguryŏ Buddhism the Sinitic Buddhist tradition as well as the emerging Buddhist culture of Silla.2 Western scholars, on the other hand, have lamented the dearth of literary, epigraphical, and archeological evidence of Buddhism in Kogu- ryŏ.3 Is it possible to reconstruct illustrations of the nature and characteris- tics of Buddhist ritual and devotional practice in the late Koguryŏ period? In this paper I will flesh out the characteristics of Buddhist ritual and devotional practice in Koguryŏ by reconstructing its Northeast Asian con- text.

In Europe, the School of Internal Arts (pseudonym) follows key principles of the ancient Chinese text The Yijinjing (The Muscle-Tendon Change Classic) “Skeleton up, flesh down”, in its online and offline pedagogy. This article draws on an ongoing ethnographic, netnographic and cross-cultural investigation of the transmission of knowledge in this atypical association that combines Taijiquan with a range of practices such as Qigong, body loosening exercises and meditation. Exploring the ideal body cultivated by the students, we describe and illustrate key (and often overlooked) body areas—namely the spine, scapula, Kua and feet, which are continually worked on in the School of Internal Arts’ exercise-based pedagogy. We argue that Neigong and Taijiquan, rather than being forms of physical education, are vehicles for adult physical re-education. This re-education offers space in which mind-body tension built over the life course are systematically Citation: Ma, X.; Jennings, G. “Hang released through specific forms of attentive, meditative exercise to lay the foundations for a strong, the Flesh off the Bones”: Cultivating powerful body for martial artistry and health.

  • Breathing in Sundo Qi from the Mountains of Korea by Ron Catabia
    Breathing in SunDo Qi from the Mountains of Korea by Ron Catabia, SunDo Associate Master Teacher Koreans love their mountains. They are the splendor of Korea where about 75% of the peninsula is mountainous. Even with their busy, western-type life styles, many Koreans still find time to go to the mountains. When you climb to the top of a mountain you become closer to heaven and more in touch with the spirit and energy of the cosmos. There are many mountain ranges in Korea, but one stands out more than the others. This range begins at Mt. Baekdu, or Baekdu San, which is located in the northeastern area of North Korea. It spans almost the entire length of the Korean peninsula and finally ends close to the southern tip of South Korea. The length of the range is estimated to be about 900 miles. Koreans have long believed that their strength and life force come from this energy channel mountain range. According to David Mason in Spirit of the Mountains: Korea’s SAN-SHIN and Traditions of Mountain-Worship (HollyM, 1999), the Japanese, during their occupation of Korea from 1910-1945, wanted to break this qi (life force) flow and, using 8-foot long iron spikes, “drove them into geomantically strategic mountain peaks and passes throughout Korea in order to geomantically sever the ties between the Korean national spirit and the energy of the land on which they lived.” The strong bond between the Korean people and the qi of their mountains, still evident today, was clearly perceived by the Japanese.

PAUL NOGIER: OUR MASTER Dr. Andre Lentz 13 bd Trimolet Dijon, France When, before 1968, we wrote to our doctors of medicine, it was the custom to use the formula "Sir and Dear Master". It was a custom imposed by submission to the prevailing academic Establishment rather than by a deep attachment to the person. For it is not enough to be a teacher to earn the name of master. The Master is he who, by his world vision, is able to alter our convictions and beliefs, thus creating a real school of thought. Paul Nogier was one such person. He profoundly modified our conception of medicine and our approach to man. He not only made important discoveries but he incorporated this image of man and the world into his everyday life, becoming a model for many of us. Pupils from all over the world came of their own volition to hear him and emulate him. Paul Nogier dedicated his life to an idea that could be expressed as follows: There are simple ways of bringing relief to a patient; it is up to us to discover them.
