Description

Listing 30 names of Bodhisattvas, this book was edited like a sutra. Memorizing the names is said to build up one’s credit in heaven. Printed on mulberry paper, this woodblock book can be folded like a folding screen and is 21.7 cm long and 8.8 cm wide. According to a record at the end of this book, it was composed by Nam Yeongsin, carved by Hyeil, and printed through the donation of Jo Si-u and Jeong Gong-yeon in 1339 (eighth year of the reign of King Chungsuk of the Goryeo Dynasty). This book encouraged the repetition of the names of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and it was considered a valuable material in studying the typical Buddhism in that period.
