6. Introduction Buddhism of Baekje into Japan

  We can know through the informations in several documents that the culture of Baekje was transferred to Japan and contributed to the development of Japan.
  There are some differences between records about the fact that Baekje introduced Buddhism into Japan but it is almost certain that Buddhism was introduced into Japan during the reign of King Seong. According to Nippon seogi, Baekje sent the rule priests, the Zen priests and the Buddhist priestesses with several sutras and leading articles to Japan. Also Baekje sent artisans to transmit the way of constructing a temple. Owing to the transmission, Buddhism of Japan was developed so that there were 46 temples, 860 monks and 569 Buddhist priestesses in the reign of Emperor Chugo. Hyechong, a monk of Baekje, went over to Japan and introduced the Buddhist precepts to Soamaja, a minister in Japan.
  Three Buddhist priestesses including Seonshinni came to Baekje and studied Buddhist commandments for 3 years, and went back to Japan. Therefore, we can know that Baekje and Japan visited each other to transmit Buddhism.
  A monk beat his grandfather in the reign of Emperor Chugo and Owing to this event, a bishop and a priest was organized and inspect temples and monks. And the monk who appointed to the first bishop was Gwanreuk, a monk of Baekje.
  Judging from the points considered above, Buddhism in Japan had influence not only on the process of transmission at the beginning but also on the development of education and scholar ship or the establishment of the priesthood system. Also Buddhism influenced many things, which we can know certainly through the relics remaining. However, to explain this we need to explain about each relic individually, so the explanation will be ommited.
