Tree gates of Beomeosa

First Gate (一柱門 : Ill Ju Mun)
This is the first gate to enter the temple. It symbolizes one mind. Ascetics have to throw away their evil passions and think Buddha and truth when they pass on it.

Gate of the Heavenly Kings (天王門 : Chon Wang Mun)

This is the second gate to enter the temple. In this small palace, the Four Devas (kings) who guard the precept of Buddha are installed.

Gate of Non-duality (不二門 : Bul Ee Mun)

This is the last gate. It means the real salvation.
