Mongsanhwasangbeobeoyangnok of Beomeosa Temple

The Mongsanhwasangbeobeoyangnok records beopeo (法語), the words and teachings of the Buddha, and served as a guide for monks in their practice; in Korea it circulated widely during the Joseon dynasty. It is a single-volume woodblock print. According to its publication record, it was printed in 1579, the twelfth year of King Seonjo, at Sinheungsa Temple on Jirisan Mountain. Three eonhae editions of the Mongsanhwasangbeobeoyangnok — translated and annotated in Hangeul — are currently designated as treasures: the copies held by Dongguk University, by Yi Gyeom-no, and by the King Sejong the Great Memorial Society. This copy, by contrast, is a little-known edition in Literary Chinese. Its content differs from that of the eonhae editions, giving it independent value as a historical source and making it a valuable resource for the study of Buddhist history.
