Pattern of Mireukjeon And Autumn SunlightsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #sct5 years ago

As soon as I passed through the Jinyeo(Buddha) gate, I saw a building named Beobwanglu, where monks teach Buddhism to people.
Beobwang means Buddha. It seemed like that various names are required to define Buddha.
There was a signboard written Mireunkjeon on the front roof of Beobwanglu.
Mireukjeon means an auditorium for the Buddha named Mireuk(Maitreya)

This building had two names, Beobwanglu and Mireukjeon.
There is a reason for naming this building with two different names.
It is for the temple not to stick to one purpose.
Although there is one building, its meaning changes according to the name.

The building was not old, but the patterns decorating the windows of the building were beautiful.
It was the pattern style of the middle of the Joseon dynasty.
After the war with Japan at the end of the 16th century, the buildings of the temple were all burned down. It was not possible to rebuild the building the same with prewar, so people tried to decorate the windows beautifully instead.
I couldn’t take pictures in Mireunkjeon because people were praying in there. I didn’t want to interrupt them. The sound of chanting the Buddhist scriptures came out.

There was a gate right next to Beobwanglu.
Even though the surrounding area was messy because of construction, autumn sunshine made the gate beautiful.

Autumn Sunlight makes the world beautiful.
Autumn sunlight doubles the beauty of Mireukjeon’s pattern.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

You know that recently it becoming popular Buddhism in Europe too, many people turn to this religion because of spreading peace to people and own soul, but another reason because this is a religion that does not force you to accept it people choose themselves if they want to accept it. That is one of the attractive features.

The little gate is beautiful, you managed to capture the beautiful highlights of the day on the gate :)

I didn't know that Buddhism is becoming popular in Europe! Though I am not religious, I think aesthetical beauty and philosophy in Buddhism are worthy of notice.

Those windows are very ornate and nicely done. The gate is beautiful and shows a view of the window that you mentioned. The lower angle of the sun in autumn makes for long shadows and a pleasant effect on photos. It is almost is golden hour all day :)

Autumn is my favorite season of the year! As you mentioned, the lower angle of the sun makes things beautiful in photography!
