영문 초록

In this paper I have examined the principle of Vipassana and its practice. In the chapter with regards to the meaning of Vipassana, I confirm that Cattaro Satipatthana Vipassana is originally based on Buddha's teaching and it is also the way of practice which Buddha left to his disciples as his last instruction. Thus, I emphasized that Cattaro Satipatthana Vipassana is the way of practice which can be verified by all Buddhists. In the chapter with regards to the principle of Vipassana, I examined an original meaning of Vipassana and its functional concepts like sampajanna, sati, vidita, etc. These three concepts are essential in practice of Vipassana. Through the three concepts we are able to understand characteristics of Vipassana more clearly. On the other hand, in the chapter with regard to practice of Vipassana, I introduced briefly Mahasatipatthana-Suttanta, connecting its content with Vipassana which was being practiced in Myanmar, Thailand, etc. The masters of Vipassana in southern Buddhism teach their disciples in their own ways, which are based on this sutra. The teachings by the masters of southern Buddhism are a little different from each other. Yet, what is more important is that they are not beyond Mahasatipatthana-Suttanta. Moreover, even four forms of Satipatthana cannot be said to be separated from each other. As the power of Vipassana grows, one can be keenly aware of his physical and mental phenomena. So all practices with southern masters of Vipassana introduced in this paper can be said to be expedients for beginners of Vipassana.
