3. 출가를 하다
동자승을 만난 다음부터 소년은 덕흥사를 뻔질나게 드나들었다.
‘제대로 공부를 해야겠다.’
마음을 먹고 출가를 하는데 이왕이면 우리나라에서 제일 큰 절에 가서 공부를 하고 싶었다. 소년이 상식적으로 생각해 낼 수 있는 가장 큰 절은 불국사였다.
불국사에 간 첫날 발우공양을 배웠다.
”오늘 저녁부터 대중스님들과 공양을 해야 하니 발우 펴는 법부터 배워라.“
이날 한 시간도 못 되어 불국사의 식구로 대접을 받았고, 대중스님들과 다 같이 발우공양을 했다. 남들은 다 혹독했다는 행자 생활도 없이, 소년은 일주일 정도 <초발심자경문>을 배우다가 사미계를 받았다. 무비(無比) 라는 이름을 지효스님에게서 받았다.
당시 불국사에는 지효스님이 주지였고, 무비스님의 은사가 되는 여환스님이 총무겸 재무 소임을 맡고 있었다. 여환스님의 은사이신 지효스님을 무비스님은 노스님이라고 불렀다.
3. Entering the Monastic Life
After meeting the young novice monk, the boy found himself drawn to Deokheungsa Temple and began visiting regularly.
“I want to study properly,” he thought with determination.
He made up his mind to become a monk and dreamed of studying at the largest temple
he knew which was Bulguksa.
On his first day at Bulguksa, he was introduced to the temple’s formal way of life.
"From tonight, you’ll eat with all the other monks,“ they told him. “So first, you must learn how to use the formal monastic bowls."
Less than an hour later, he was welcomed as a member of the Bulguksa monastic family. That evening, he joined the monks in their traditional meal, known as ‘baru gongyang’.
Unlike most novices, who go through a rigorous training period, he was allowed to study
a beginner’s guidebook the ‘Admonitions for Beginning Aspirants’ for about a week. Soon after, he formally took the vows of a novice monk.
He was given the Dharma name "Mubi" by Jihyo Seunim, who was then the head monk
at Bulguksa. Mubi Seunim's guiding teacher was “Yeohwan Seunim”, who was in charge of the temple's general and financial affairs. Since Jihyo Seunim was Yeohwan Seunim's teacher, Mubi Seunim respectfully referred to him as his “grand-teacher “.
