초록

This paper is the result of discussing the background story of Wolmyeongsa(月明師)'s “Dosol-ga(兜率歌)” and discussing the magical method of this song. As you may know, this work is a song sung to solve the transformation of the ‘two suns’ that appeared in the sky. According to the background story, when this song was sung, the transformation of the sky disappeared. Existing research has paid attention to this point and regarded this song as a representative song of ‘with magical properties’, and the origin of magic has been found only in traditional magic such as “Kuji-ga(龜旨歌)”. They paid attention to the method of commanding after calling the medium of magic. This paper examines the background story of “Dosol-ga” in more detail, and infers that the shamanism of this work is achieved not only by the “Kuji-ga” style magic method, but also the “Heyseong-ga(彗星歌)” style restatement magic. In other words, this song is a song reaffirmed that the additional sun in the sky is not 'an ominous sign of disaster', but 'a good sign of Maitreya Buddha's coming down'. And it turned disaster into a blessing by welcoming Maitreya Buddha(彌勒佛) through such a restatement. That was embodied by utilizing the strong circumstantial intimacy of the song and the song. In “Heyseong-ga”, we can see the new interpretation the 'bad sign of a star' as a 'star to clean the road'. “Dosol-ga” also has new interpretation the ‘Sun of Bad Symptoms’ as ‘Mireukjwaju’. Therefore these two works are likely to be the same type of magic. In addition, the magic of reinterpretation seen in dream interpretation was also taken as evidence. In conclusion, “Dosol-ga” is a magical song that calmed down the sense of crisis in Silla(新羅) society by restating 'the crisis of two suns appearing' as 'a good sign of Maitreya coming down'.
