| Abstract | National Master Ŭich’ŏn 大覺國師義天 (1055-1101) is credited as the founder of Korean Tiantai (Kor. Ch’ŏnt’ae) Buddhism. He is also recognized as a collector of Buddhist texts, partly thanks to his position as a prince, the fourth son of King Munjong (文宗 1019-1083).
In 1085, at the age of 31, Ŭich’ŏn made his long-awaited journey to China in the company of his disciple Sugae 壽介 (fl. 1083-1094) and others. Once there, he met Emperor Zhezong 哲宗 (r. 1086-1100) and continued his travel to Hangzhou (杭州) to visit Huiyin Chansi (慧因禪寺). He stayed Song China for over a year and studied Huayan Buddhism with Dharma Master Jingyuan 淨源法師 (1011-1088). After he returned to Koryŏ (高麗), Ŭich’ŏn supported the temple materially as well as by sending Buddhist texts. These efforts resulted in the name of the temple being changed to Hangzhou Gaolisi (杭州 高麗寺).
The article begins with Ŭich’ŏn’s trip to Hangzhou, his encounter with Jingyuan, and Jingyuan’s influence on Ŭich’ŏn’s Buddhism and consider what might have been major attractions of Jingyuan’s Huayan Buddhism to Ŭich’ŏn and Ŭich’ŏn’s relation to Hwaŏm Buddhism. It also examines the claim of Ŭich’ŏn’s establishment of the Ch’ŏnt’ae school. The final section deals with another legacy of Ŭich’ŏn’s trip to Hangzhou involving Gaoli si or Koryŏ Monastery in Hangzhou and its meaning to the Korean Buddhists in modern times. Altogether, the article attempts to provide a perspective on Ŭich’ŏn’s Buddhism that is different from the common Korean Buddhist history and to create a narrative of what Ŭich’ŏn might have wanted to do and what his legacy in relation to Hangzhou might reveal about knowledge production in Korean Buddhist history.
