주역(周易)이 차문화(茶文化)에 끼친 영향 연구

Abstract

As the processes of LuYu's growth and learning showed, he was not guided by any one thought. When he was a boy, he focused on the Confucian thought, but later he completed the various ideas through exchanges with the Confucian writers and bureaucrats. His various ideas were applied to the process of writing 「The Book of Tea(茶經)」. His application of 「The Book of Changes(周易)」 to the production of tea-tools such as chauffer or quoting 「The Book of Changes」 when tasting tea was to emphasize the importance and meaning of tea. This is because LuYu intended to elevate the ‘tea’ that was developed to the level for drinking from medicinal use into the stage of mental and tea culture. In this process, he intended to take advantage of 「The Book of Changes」 which had a great influence on the general public as well as the intellectuals and apply it to the act of drinking tea. LuYu learned the Buddhism-related knowledge and also 「The Book of Changes」 in the process of studying the Confucian thoughts. His emphasis of the Confucian value like ‘Jeong(精)・Haeng(行)・Geom(儉)・Deok(德)’ suggested that he was influenced by the Confucian thought including 「The Book of Changes」. He advocated key word and idea of tea manner, ‘Jeong・Haeng・Geom・Deok’ first. He employed the basic Gwe(卦) of 「The Book of Changes」 in making chauffer. It is another evidence that he learned and applied 「The Book of Changes」. There was no clear evidence that he learned 「The Book of Changes」 or the Five Books of Confucianism, but the investigation of 「The Book of Tea」 confirmed that he was much influenced by 「The Book of Changes」. In conclusion, the results of this study can be summarized as folows. First, the key ideas of ‘tea culture and tea ceremony’ were defined as Hwa(和)・Gyeong(敬)・Cheong(淸)・Jeok(寂)・Jin(眞) and Yi(怡), the various interpretations of 「The Book of Changes」 were reestablished and explained with concrete concepts. This study described the effects and correlations of 「The Book of Changes」 on the idea of tea ceremony. Second, while tea culture or tea drinkers mentioned tea ceremony and 「The Book of Changes」 through writings or poems, they were not concrete in explaining the associations between tea ceremony and 「The Book of Changes」. This study explained the correlations concretely between tea ceremony and 「The Book of Changes」 through various cases. Third, the element which has the closest relevance with 「The Book of Tea」 and the five elements of 「The Book of Changes」 was color and it was found that it was applied as Cheongcha [木], Jeokcha [火], Hwangcha [土], Baekcha [金] and Heukcha [水]. It is considered that the research on the influence of 「The Book of Changes」 on tea culture and tea ceremony thought should be performed in various areas. But, there have not been enough studies and materials related to this, so to solve this problem, gathering DB of related materials and papers is needed. As the material culture is developed more, the concerns on mental culture will be greater. Therefore, academic concerns and studies on tea culture, tea ceremony and 「The Book of Changes」 will be extended more.
