AB - In medieval East Asia, the institution of Buddhist Masters is found in Kory죠 Korea, Tangut Xia, and Mongol Yuan. In Koryd, die system was conposed of Royal Preceptor （王師）and State Preceptor （國師）.The institution of State Preceptor became prominent in the late Silla as eminent monks of the Son （Zen） School were given more respects and privilege than National Monastery Government（國統）. The Royal Preceptor was added in early Koryo and continued into early Giosdn.
During the Khitan Liao, Han Chinese Song, and Jurchen Jin periods, the institution of Buddhist Masters declined. This was due to the growth of imperial power that came to dominate the Buddhist Order. However, the institution continued to thrive in both Koryd and Tangut Xia. The institution of Buddhist Masters in Tangut Xia had different origins than that of Koryd. Tanguts worshipped Tibetan Lamaism that placed great emphasis on Living Buddhas. The Mongol Yuan later implemented similar system based on the Tangut model, and Mongols invested eminent Lamas as Imperial Preceptors （帝師）.The Mongol court recognized the caesaropapism of Lamaism, and the imperial preceptor controlled both the secular and religi이is power within Tibet.
State and In모erial Preceptors represented institution of Buddhist Masters and reflected the division of secular and religious powers. However, with the fall of Koryd and Tangut Xia, the institution disappeared. Buddhism fell from its lofty place, and philosophy and religions became subordinate to the political power in medieval East Asia.
