Sunday Photo; JiJang Bosal gazing at Mudeung Mountain

Posted on by Ox Herder

I’ve always really liked JiJang Bosal. His green hair, his staff, his Great Vow.

This is a beautiful bronze JiJang Bosal, outside of a small temple at the foot of Mudeungsan.

My name is Joseph Bengivenni but I usually go by the moniker Ox Herder online. I’m a Canadian artist, photographer, and writer who has been living in Korea since 2005. During that time, I developed a deep appreciation for Korea’s mountains and the ‘Sansa’, Mountain Temples, found within them. In recent years, I’ve focused my efforts on documenting Korea’s official list of traditional temples and hermitages. Of the 991 on the list, I’ve currently visited 560 of them. I consider it my life-long pilgrimage. Follow me here or @oxherder.photography on Instagram as I continue this ongoing journey.

  2. Thank you Joseph — I look forward to your photos every week.

    Is JiJang Bosal what in Japanes Zen is called Jizo?
