    Commentary
    Only the second volume of Jikji has survived, with its first sheet (first two pages) missing. The cover page states the book’s title as “Jikji,” whereas the book’s final page features a different title “Baegun hwasangchorokbuljojikjisimcheyojeolgwonha.”
    This lengthy title means “an anthology of teachings by the Buddha and eminent monks that can help achieve a Chan awakening, compiled by Monk Baegun Gyeonghan.”

    Baegun Gyeonghan was born in Jeongeup, Jeollabuk-do Province in 1298.
    After receiving his ordination, he visited monasteries across the country practicing Chan. In 1351, at the age of 50, he met Chan Master LiangbaoZhigong (梁寶誌公) and became his disciple. In 1365, following the recommendation of Seon Master NaongHyegeun (儺翁惠勤), Baegun became the abbot of Singwangsa Temple.

In 1370, he became the head examiner for state examinations for monks known as gonbuseon (功夫選), serving as the leader of Korean Buddhism.

    In 1372, he published the two volumes of Jikji, a compilation of teachings by the Buddha and eminent monks in the Chan lineage. His other extant work is two volumes of Recorded Sayings (語錄). At the age of 77, he passed away at Chwiamsa Temple, Yeoju.

  • 2 This imprint suggests that Jikji was printed at Heungdeoksa Temple in Cheongjumok (present-day Cheongju) using movable metal type in 1377, the seventh year of Xuanguang (宣光).
  • 3 Cheongju was so named in 940 (the 23rd year of King Taejo of Goryeo’s reign). In 983 (the 2nd year of King Seongjong’s reign), when a 12-mok administrative division system was established, it became Chungjumok (淸州牧). Later, in 1018 (the 9th year of Hyeonjong’s reign), the system was reduced to an eight-mok system, but Cheongjumok remained as an administrative hub in the Chungcheong region.
