The World's Oldest Plan of Angkor
UDAYA, Journal of 13, 2015 UDAYA, Khmer Studies, The World’s Oldest Plan of Angkor Vat THE WORLD’S OLDEST PLAN OF ANGKOR VAT: THE JAPANESE SO-CALLED JETAVANA, AN ILLUSTRATED PLAN OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY Yoshiaki Ishizawa Director, Sophia Asia Center for Research and Human Development Cambodia and Japan in the 16th and 17th Century The Angkor Empire, which built grand monuments including those now registered as the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Angkor, came under attack by the army of the neighboring Siamese Ayutthaya dynasty (today’s Thailand), around 1431. This led to the fall of the ancient capital of Angkor, thereby ending the Empire’s history of 600 years. The kingdom’s capital was then transferred to Srei Santhor, Phnom Penh, and Longvek in 1529, and then to Oudong in 1618. Phnom Penh has been the capital city from 1867 to this day. Recent research has uncovered the fact that descendants of the Angkor rulers returned to Angkor Thom between 1546 and 1576, where they repaired the derelict structures and encouraged locals to move back to the area.1 Western missionaries, visiting Cambodia around this time, also left documents with details concerning the ancient capital. Angkor Vat on the other hand was turned into a Buddhist temple (Theravada Buddhism) after the collapse of the Khmer Empire, and continues to attract nearby residents as a place of Buddhist worship. In Japan, Toyotomi Hideyoshi accomplished the unification of the nation (1590). Following the Battle of Sekigahara (1600), Tokugawa Ieyasu established the Shogunal government in 1603, and around this time Japan received a large number of international visitors including Christian missionaries and international traders. -

Chapter 5 Buddhist Illusion and the Landscape Arts
Page 155 Chapter 5 Buddhist Illusion and the Landscape Arts Truths are illusions that we have forgotten are illusions. —Friedrich Nietzsche Practice illusion by means of illusion. —The Perfect Enlightenment Sutra While the Kitayama Zen views of landscape paintings we have surveyed were grounded in the venerable Chinese Mahayana and Zen Buddhist traditions, they also developed their own distinctive vision of the landscape arts. Chinese Zen monks and nuns had modified classical Indian and Chinese Buddhist ontology to emphasize the two premises of the illusory, ultimately empty character of reality and the nondualistic interplay of the realms of samsaric suffering and the enlightened bliss of nirvana. 1 The Kitayama Five Mountains monks applied these premises to artistic creation and interpretation through such canonical Buddhist terms describing meditative states as "the samadhi of [seeing that all is] like an illusion" (C. juhuan sanmei; J. nyogen zammai), and "the samadhi of playfulness" (C. yuge san mei; J. yuge zammai). In this and the final chapter we explore the central role played by these two Buddhist themes in the Kitayama religioaesthetic vision of the landscape arts: Mahayana ontological and heuristic theories of illusion; and a mode of Zen enlightened activity characterized by unimpeded playfulness. It was through syncretic integration of these Buddhist theories of reality and of artistic interpretation with both Chinese painting theory and Taoist and other conceptions of landscape that the Japanese Zen monks developed their -

Knowing the Paths of Pilgrimage the Network of Pilgrimage Routes in Nineteenth-Century China
review of Religion and chinese society 3 (2016) 189-222 Knowing the Paths of Pilgrimage The Network of Pilgrimage Routes in Nineteenth-Century China Marcus Bingenheimer Temple University [email protected] Abstract In the early nineteenth century the monk Ruhai Xiancheng 如海顯承 traveled through China and wrote a route book recording China’s most famous pilgrimage routes. Knowing the Paths of Pilgrimage (Canxue zhijin 參學知津) describes, station by station, fifty-six pilgrimage routes, many converging on famous mountains and urban centers. It is the only known route book that was authored by a monk and, besides the descriptions of the routes themselves, Knowing the Paths contains information about why and how Buddhists went on pilgrimage in late imperial China. Knowing the Paths was published without maps, but by geo-referencing the main stations for each route we are now able to map an extensive network of monastic pilgrimage routes in the nineteenth century. Though most of the places mentioned are Buddhist sites, Knowing the Paths also guides travelers to the five marchmounts, popular Daoist sites such as Mount Wudang, Confucian places of worship such as Qufu, and other famous places. The routes in Knowing the Paths traverse not only the whole of the country’s geogra- phy, but also the whole spectrum of sacred places in China.

Talismans and Amulets in the Japanese Collection1
ANNALS OF THE NÁPRSTEK MUSEUM 35/1 • 2014 • (p. 39–68) TALISMANS AND AMULETS IN THE JAPANESE COLLECTION1 Alice Kraemerová2 ABSTRACT: This article describes all types of amulets and talismans present in the Náprstek Museum Japanese collection and uncovers their symbolic meaning. These are mostly talismans from shrines and temples dating to the beginning of the 20th century, traditional hand-crafted items from famous places of pilgrimage and toys used as talismans. KEY WORDS: Japan – Buddhist temple – Shintǀ shrine – shamanism – talisman – amulet– ofuda – ema – omamori – collecting – Náprstek Museum of Asian, African and American Cultures (Prague) 1. Defining terminology Amulet is considered to have protective or otherwise salutary effects while talisman primarily attracts fortune. Various authors describe different classifications of amulets and talismans according to their functional principles: homeopathic principle, contact principle, the principle of the magic of the written word, principle of colour magic, the principle of magic substances, the principle of the personifies higher power and the combinatorial principle (Nuska 2012). In this article we shall not use this division as for such a detailed analysis it would be necessary to acknowledge all types of amulets and talismans, not just those collected by the Czech travellers and brought into the NpM collections. Most of the available literature deals with the European view on amulets and talismans; the furthest it gets is the Near East. The Far East is usually not that well mapped due to the geographical distance and the language barrier. For the Japanese talismans, there are several often used terms: mayoke (㨱 㝖ࡅ) or yakuyoke (གྷ㝖ࡅ), omamori (࠾Ᏺࡾ) and ofuda (ᚚᮐ) or gofu (ㆤ➢). -

Manufactured in the United States of America GROVE PRESS, INC., 196 West Houston Street, New York, N.Y., 10014 FOREWORD These days many people travel hundreds or thousands of miles to see or hear Zen masters. Some meet them. Some study with them. Few have a chance to ask them: What shall I do with my anger, jealousy, hate, fear, sorrow, am- bition, delusions—-all the problems that occupy human minds? And how shall I deal with my work, my mother and father, my children, my husband or wife, my servants, my employers—the relations that make up human life? Can Zen help me? If the Zen Master Bankei were available for consulta- tion at a nearby street corner today, he'd be saying much the same things he did to comfort and enlighten the parade of housewives, merchants, soldiers, officials, monks and thieves who sought guidance from him three centuries ago.
