  • Married Monastics and Military Life: Contradictions and Conflicted Identities Within South Korea’S Buddhist Chaplaincy System
    religions Article Married Monastics and Military Life: Contradictions and Conflicted Identities within South Korea’s Buddhist Chaplaincy System Kyungrae Kim and Cheonghwan Park * Department of Buddhist Studies, Dongguk University, Seoul 04620, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 13 April 2020; Accepted: 19 May 2020; Published: 21 May 2020 Abstract: Since its modern origins in the Buddhist Purification Movement of the 1950s, South Korea’s Jogye Order has established monastic celibacy as central to its identity and claim to legitimacy as a Buddhist sect. However, in the order’s urgency to introduce Buddhist chaplains to the South Korean military in the 1960s, after almost two decades of Protestant monopoly over the chaplaincy program, the Jogye Order permitted its chaplains to marry; a practice which soon became the norm. This contradiction grew increasingly problematic for the order over subsequent decades and, in 2009, it attempted to resolve the issue by reversing the marriage exception for chaplains, reinforcing their identity as monastics within the order. While controversial, the resolution has proved effective in practice. However, this reversal has also provoked unprecedented lawsuits against South Korea’s Ministry of National Defense in 2017 and a ruling by Korea’s Human Rights Commission in 2018, challenging the Jogye Order’s exclusive control of the military’s Buddhist chaplaincies. Given the challenges these issues currently present to the Jogye Order’s chaplaincy program, this article interrogates the origins, history, significance, and impact of the issues surrounding the order’s marriage exemption for its military chaplains. Keywords: Jogye Order; monastic celibacy; Purification Movement; military chaplains; contemporary Korean Buddhism 1.

  • The Korean Monk Sangwŏl (1911-1974) and the Rise of the Ch’Ŏnt’Ae School of Buddhism by © 2017 Yohong Roh B.A., the University of Findlay, 2014
    New Wine in an Old Bottle: The Korean Monk Sangwŏl (1911-1974) and the Rise of the Ch’ŏnt’ae school of Buddhism By © 2017 Yohong Roh B.A., The University of Findlay, 2014 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Department of Religious Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Chair: Daniel Stevenson Jacquelene Brinton William R. Lindsey Date Defended: 10 July 2017 ii The thesis committee for Yohong Roh certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: New Wine in an Old Bottle: The Korean Monk Sangwŏl (1911-1974) and the Rise of the Ch’ŏnt’ae school of Buddhism Chair: Daniel Stevenson Date Approved: 10 July 2017 iii Abstract The thesis explores the diverse ways in which a new Korean Buddhist movement that calls itself the “Ch’ŏnt’ae Jong (Tiantai school)” has appropriated and deployed traditional patriarchal narratives of the Chinese Tiantai tradition to legitimize claims to succession of its modern founder, the Korean monk Sangwŏl (1922-1974). Sangwŏl began his community as early as 1945; however, at that time his community simply referred to itself as the “teaching of Sangwŏl” or “teaching of Kuinsa,” after the name of his monastery. It was not until the official change of the name to Ch’ŏnt’ae in 1967 that Korean Buddhists found a comprehensive and identifiable socio-historical space for Sangwŏl and his teaching. Key to that transition was not only his adapting the historically prominent name “Ch’ŏnt’ae,” but his retrospective creation of a lineage of Chinese and Korean patriarchs to whom he could trace his succession and the origin of his school.

  • A Survey of the Attitudes Concerning the Role of the Laity in Korea's Jogye Order
    religions Article A Survey of the Attitudes Concerning the Role of the Laity in Korea’s Jogye Order Cheonghwan Park and Kyungrae Kim * Department of Buddhist Studies, Dongguk University, 30 Pildong-ro 1gil, Jung-gu, Seoul 04620, Korea; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 25 September 2019; Accepted: 25 November 2019; Published: 27 November 2019 Abstract: Despite its 17-century-long history, Korean Buddhism is currently undergoing a crisis. In addition to the declining number of lay practitioners, Korea’s largest Buddhist order, the Jogye Order (K. Daehan Bulgyo Jogyejong, hereafter “JO” or “the order”), is facing a significant drop in monastic recruitment. Compounding this crisis, a series of scandals within the order’s monastic leadership have caused widespread loss of confidence among the order’s laity. In addition to calls for greater financial transparency and moral accountability for JO monastics, many reformers are demanding greater lay participation within the order’s political hierarchy, challenging the centuries-old roles assigned to monastics and laity. However, these challenges have failed to produce any practical changes within the order while its monastic establishment continues espousing rhetoric reinforcing monastic authority and its supremacy over the laity. In light of these crises, this paper will conduct a perfunctory examination of the attitudes the JO’s monastic establishment exhibits towards its lay supporters and the roles it expects for them. Utilizing, in part, previously unpublished internal JO documents, this paper will begin by investigating monastic attitudes expressed towards the laity in the order’s 2015 General Meeting of the Four-fold Assembly as well as the ensuing debate over these roles in Korea’s Buddhist media.
