ABSTRACT

This paper is an analysis of the compilation and distribution of 『Four Buddhist Sermons』 passed down at the late Goryeo Dynasty period. Compiled by a disciple of Naong Haegeun at the end of Goryeo Dynasty period, 『Four Buddhist Sermons』 was first published at Muwiam Jirisan in 1375, and subsequently completed in the Yunpilam edition in 1441. Based on this Yunpilam edition as the source edition, its Korean translations were published by Hyegakjonja Shinmi at Ganggyeongdogam in 1467. In addition, its Chinese edition was distributed upon revising and partially reflecting the Korean translations. Including the Korean translations, it was found that 40 kinds of extant editions remain. Regarding the establishment, compilation and distribution of 『Four Buddhist Sermons』, based on the writings of Mongsan Deokyi passed down from China, Sija Gakryeon of Naong in the late Goryeo Dynasty period, as well as his religious tradition successors Muhak Jacho in the early Joseon Dynasty period, Hamheo Deuktong and Hyegak Shinmi played the leading role.
