Abstract

Based on the study on place name, meaning analysis of buddhist temple Palgyeng, and classifications of instructions and characteristics of writings on rocks, the main results of the study showed the following. Cheongamsa is located in the upstream of Muheulgugok Valley which was run by Hangang Jeong Gu(寒岡 鄭逑), a typical young man in the middle of the Joseon Dynasty, and overlaps with chief monk Byukam Lee Dukjin's(1896~?) object of Cheongamsa Palgyeng during Japanese colonial era. Including the mountain embracing Cheongamsa called Bullyeong-san, various characteristics of writings on rocks such as use of combination of place names including Sudosan, Seonlyeongsan, and Sinseondae, as well as Cheongamsa Temple, Bullyeongdongchun(佛靈洞天), Namuabitabul, Hogye(虎溪), Yeosan Waterfall(廬山瀑布), and Sejinam(洗 塵巖) show co-existence of Confucianism and Taoism mixed together in the temple. Especially for Cheongamsa Valley Hogye and Samsocheon(三笑泉) which is in the precincts of the temple, are realized as the symbol of the scenery of the three religion consilience of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism through announcement using Hogyesamso(虎溪三笑) which originated from Yeosan Donglimsa, Jiangxi, China. Also, there are Yeosan Waterfall with a noble sense of place by negotiating with god, writing on rocks imprinted, and Yeosangyo(廬山橋) in Cheongamsa. As such, cultures of the three religion remain in various layers with the spirit of Hogyosamso symbolizing the consilience and coexistence of the three religion in Cheongamsa without the exclusiveness of Buddhism. Besides, the third precept of Yukhwagyeongbub, known to be practiced in Buddhist temples, which says "Do not only express self-assertion and ignore others" according to the dogma of working together in harmony, is in accordance with the spirits of Hogyesamso. As shown, Gimcheon Cheongamsa which is adorned with cultural landscapes of Hogyesamso, Gugokdongcheon(九曲洞天), and Palgyeng(八景), is not only good enough for the way of Buddhism and Confucianism but also for a place for the three religion consilience embracing the three religion.

지명 고찰, 사찰팔경의 의미 분석 그리고 바위글씨의 지시내용과 성격 분류 등을 토대로, 한국 문화 DNA의 하나인 유불선 삼교통섭의 의미경관이 김천 청암사 경역에서 어떠한 방식으로 인식되며 표출되고 있는 지를 확인할 목적으로 시도된 본 연구의 주요 결과는 다음과 같다. 청암사가 위치한 곳은 조선 중기 대표적 유자(孺子)인 한강(寒岡) 정구(鄭逑, 1543~1620)가 경영한 무흘구곡의 상류부로서, 일제강점기 청암사 주지 벽암(碧庵) 이덕진(李德珍, 1896~?)이 제영한 청암사팔경의 대상과도 중복된다. 청암사를 품은 배후 산의 산명(山名)인 불령산(佛靈山)을 비롯하여 수도산(修道山), 선령산(仙靈山)과 신선대(神仙臺) 등의 지명 병용(倂用)과 청암사원(靑巖寺院), 청암사팔경, 불령동천(佛靈洞天), 나무아미타불[南無阿漏隋佛], 호계(虎溪), 여산폭포(廬山瀑布), 세진암(洗塵巖) 등 다양한 속성의 바위글씨는 사찰영역에 혼재된 유교와 선교의 공존을 보여준다. 특히 청암사 계곡 호계와 경내 조성된 삼소천(三笑泉)은 중국 장시성의 여산동림사에서 비롯된 호계삼소(虎溪三笑)의 고사를 통한 유불선 3교 회통의 상징 경물로 구현되고 있다. 또한 청암사에는 신(神)과의 교섭이란 숭고한 장소성을 보이는 여산폭포와 이를 각자(刻字)한 바위글씨 그리고 여산교(廬山橋)가 존재한다. 이와 같이 청암사에는 불교적 배타성에서 벗어나 삼교 화합과 공존을 상징하는 호계삼소의 정신을 담은 유불선 통섭의 문화가 다양한 층위(層位)로 녹아있다. 더욱이 승가(僧家)의 실천내용으로 알려진 '육화경법(六和敬法)' 중 제3계율인 "자기주장만 내세우고 남의 주장을 무시하지 마라"라는 '의화동사(意和同事)'의 교리는 호계삼소의 정신과 맞닿아 있다. 호계삼소와 구곡동천(九曲洞天) 및 팔경(八景)의 문화경관으로 채색된 김천 청암사는 도불(道佛) 뿐만 아니라 유불(儒彿) 더 나아가서 삼교(三敎) 수용의 문화가 녹아있는 유불선 통섭의 명소로 부족함이 없다.
