Buseoksa Temple (부석사)

Buseoksa Temple is considered a 'masculine' temple. It differentiates itself from other temples by its huge size and the scenery is refreshing and beautiful. Buseoksa Temple was built in 676, when King Munmu (661~681) ruled the Silla Dynasty (57 B.C. ~ A.D. 935), by the founder Uisang (625~702) after he received orders from the King. Later in the 7th year (1016) of the Goryeo Dynasty (918~1392) was in the reign of King Hyeonjong (reign 1010 to 1031) Great Buddhist Monk Wonyung (964~1053) renovated Muryangsujeon (National Treasure No.18). It was renovated several times afterwards.

The legend of lady Seonmyo and Uisang is famous. The two met when Priest Uisang went to Dang (Dynasty of China) to study. When Uisang told Seonmyo he would go back to his country, Seonmyo jumped into the sea and drowned. After death, she became a dragon. Seonmyo followed Uisang to Silla to protect and be with him. When Uisang ran against a crowd that had gathered to stop him from building Buseoksa Temple, Seonmyo brought up stones in the air three times. The stone that floated stands on the left side of Muryangsujeon. Because a wide, flat stone had floated above the ground, the temple was named Buseoksa Temple.

At the entrance of Buseoksa you will see 108 steps between Cheonwangmun gate and Anyangmun gate. The number of steps represents redemption from agony and evil passions through 108 cycles. You will find Buseoksa Temple's Three Story Tower when you pass the Iljumun and Cheonwangmun gates. Above the tower you will see Beomjongru. When you pass Beomjongru, you can see a pavilion called Anyang, which means 'entrance to Heaven'. Go past Anyang Pavillion and you will reach the main building of Buseoksa Temple, Muryangsujeon, which boasts beautiful curved lines of the building structure.

Muryangsujeon is a wooden building made in the Goryeo Dynasty. Inside you will find National Treasure No.45, Sojo Yeorae Seated Figure.

Gunakan Smartphone Secara Bijak

Saat ini kehadiran smartphone di kehidupan sehari hari memang cukup banyak membantu kehidupan manusia. Tetapi bila penggunaan smartphone tidak di lakukan dengan bijak dapat menimbulkan beberapa dampak atau efek buruk bagi penggunanya. Oleh karena itu kita harus tau bagaimana cara menggunakan smartphone secara bijak.

Beberapa dampak atau efek negatif penggunaan smartphone timbul bila pengguna nya tidak menggunakan secara bijaksana. Pertama, penggunaan smartphone secara berlebihan dapat menimbulkan kecanduan bagi penggunanya. Kecanduan terhadap smartphone saat mengganggu aktifitas interaksi sosial di masyarakat. Pengguna cenderung selalu ingin menggunakan atau sekedar melihat smartphone saat sedang melakukan interaksi langsung terhadap orang lain. Itu akan mengakibatkan orang lain beranggapan bahwa pengguna smartphone tidak memiliki minat untuk berinteraksi secara langsung dan menganggap pengguna smartphone itu antisosial. Kedua, smartphone dapat mengganggu pola hidup seseorang. Seseorang yang memiliki kecanduan terhadap smartphone tentu pola hidup akan sedikit berubah dan lama lama akan mengganggu kesehatan pengguna. Pola tidur seseorang dapat berubah jika seseorang tidak menggunakan smartphone secara bijak. Pengguna smartphone kadang menggunakan gadget nya sampai larut malam. Hal tersebut akan mengurangi waktu tidur pengguna nya. Waktu tidur yang ideal adalah sekitar 7-8 jam sehari. Bila pola tidur berubah itu akan menimbulkan masalah kesehatan. Ketiga, pengguna smartphone kadang tidak produktif saat bekerja. Hal itu di sebabkan oleh keinginan untuk melihat smartphone menyebabkan pengguna tidak fokus terhadap pekerjaannya sehingga orang tersebut tidak produktif dalam dunia kerja.

Dari ketiga dampak atau efek buruk yang di timbulkan smartphone seperti yang di sebutkan di atas, pengguna smartphone seharusnya dapat menggunakan gadget yang dimiliki nya secara bijak. Hal tersebut bertujuan agar kita terhindar dari efek buruk yang di timbulkan oleh smartphone. Akan jadi keuntungan sendiri bagi pengguna smartphone bila menggunakan secara bijak, karna pada dasarnya smartphone di buat untuk membantu kehidupan umat manusia.
