Inside of this temple was also quiet different from that of other temples in it’s decoration and ornaments
There were 3 Buddhas in the praying room which was common in every temple in Korea.
Something special in this temple was there were treasures inside of the Buddha statue.
When the Buddha statue was made, they put many things into the statue.
For several years they needed to open open the Buddha statue to repair. At that time lots of things, for example, record of the making the Buddha statue and the History of the temple, clothes, small buddha statue, even there was a skeleton of baby were found inside of the Buddha Statue.
What attracted my eye first was ceiling. Actually every thing in this room was very impressive.
On the ceiling I could find birds as Gwan Chock Sa. I had posted on white bird of wild geese.
Here I saw birds as same as those of Gwan Chock Sa.
Some of my acquaintance told me that birds on the ceiling was not wild geese but cranes. I don't know which one is correct. I asked about this problem. But even Buddhist monk did not give me exact answer.
Bird of center was a phoenix.
Phoenix in Buddhism was believed as a messenger from heaven to this world.
There were 3 palaces having name of the palace for each Buddha.
Each Buddha statue had it’s palace.
Each palace has it’s own name.
The name of this palace is 7 treasures palace
This palace is for Amitabha Buddha
The meaning of this palace is Ending affliction palace
It is for Sakyamuni Buddha and main palace.
The name is Full moon palace
It is forMedicine Buddha
Each palace had beautiful ornaments of lotus and dragons
The face of dragon looks funny.
May be they'd like to show the friendly expression to people.
In my guess, Christianity and Buddhism have some similarities in doctrine.
Trinity and 3 Buddhas are the representative aspect.
3 Buddhas in Mahayanist Buddhism is as same as Trinity in Christianity in my opinion.
Similar to trinity, it is believed that 3 Buddha seemed believed to come from one Buddha.
hey my friend thanks for sharing Lord Buddha statue and very great Temple.
I live in India and there is a city called Bodh Gaya where everyone worship Lord Buddha..Very nice and peace place.I hope you have heard about Bodh Gaya.Great post.

I am doing breath meditation from long time which most of Buddhism followers practice. Buddha teachings are boon to the world. Buddha created a new type of spiritual practice, he is against the idol worship.

I went to Donghak Sa temple with some of my colleagues yesterday. I saw three seated buddas which is designated one of the national tresures in there. I am suddenly curious why it is common to be seen three buddas in the Korean temple. I want to know the exact fact. It is really amazing that Christianity and Buddhism have some similarities.

Nice photos.
While there are many similarities between Christianity and Buddhism I would have to disagree with your assumption that the 3 buddhas are similar to the trinity in Christianity. Based solely on the fact that Buddhists don't believe in a God.
I am unfamiliar with the 3 Buddhas in the Mahayana but a core tenant of Buddhism is that there is no god. It is possible that they could represent 3 of the many Buddhas throughout history or to show that there anyone can achieve enlightenment.

there could be many other interpretations.
In Buddhism, it seems that there is God in Buddhism, but the meaning of God is not important in Buddhism.
Buddhism focused in attaining the highest level of spiritual awakening.

I do agree that Buddhism is focused on practical living and ending suffering. And that the meaning of God or the first cause is not important.
Yet, I do still disagree that there is a God in Buddhism especially in how it relates to the trinity. In Buddhist literature there can be gods in other realms but no personal God like in Christianity or the Trinity.
I'd like to ask for a reference to what you thinking about.

A very interesting post. I think all religions have much in common, many of the lesser deities are aspects of one great deity. We all strive for a closer connection to the one God of all.

Very good and genuine post.
I would say my words about the similarities between religions.
I think they all have commonalities because they are about teaching people how to live together with the nature and what's surrounding us.
Being a God, a book or a human being to follow, it's all about being a good person in the world.

Hello. Thank you for your photos. I would probably guess cranes for the birds over geese. The legs look longer, which reminds me of cranes.
