The Banners And The Drawings Around The Stage For The Ritual For The Yeongsanjae In Bonwonsa,
The stage was prepared in the foreground of the temple.
It seemed one of the most important to understanding the meaning of this ritual.
This ritual is said as a reenacting scene of Buddha’s teaching when he was alive.
The most important part in the stage seemed the drawing of Shaka which was hung in the front of the stage. It was as high as two story building.
The sky was covered with white curtains to make the shadow for performing the ritual.
Various colors and types of the banners were hung around the stage and here and there.
And the stage properties were ready for the performance.
What attracted my attention was 12 animals representing 12 years in the oriental society.
I was wondered what these animals had meaning in this ritual and Buddhism.
Anyway, in oriental culture those 12 animals have very important meaning in daily life.
Below are the photos of Buddha and some of animals
People were still busy to preparing for the ritual.
It is a very colorful ritual and the banner perhaps denotes many meanings and one can just imagine the meaning of those animals like their association for the months of the year possibly or the cycle of it @slowwalker.
Lovely images.
The banners are looking cool
Really very beautiful banners

that's a bad request.
Respond content with wholeheartedly, without any lure. And appreciate if you like it. If you value the work of others, others will also appreciate your work. Never ask
That's my suggestion to you.
One thing I love the Koreans for is their culture. Very proud of it.
I watched a k-drama movie today, "children of a lesser God" and the girl was like, "ghosting".
I don't really believe Koreans believe in that.
Would have love it if I am able to visit Seoul , even for once.
I am also curious, what these animals mean in this Buddhist ritual and religion.
Wow cool pic my friends.. :)
