천문학·점성학은 베다의 보조학문 중 하나이다. 그리스의 점성학과 천문학 중 하나인 황 도 십이궁도(黃道十二宮圖)는 인도에 전파되어 기근이나 홍수 등 날씨의 변화, 전쟁의 승 패, 미래를 예측하는 등 힌두인들의 생활에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 황도 십이궁도는 13014세 기에 성립된 것으로 추정되는 『바시슈타상히따』(2asiṣṭha-Saṃhitā)에서 수행의 원리로 나타난다. 『바시슈타상히따』는 아드바이따 베단따(8dvaita-2edānta, 不二一元論)를 사상적 배경으로 하고 있으며 요가 수행의 방법으로 팔지요가를 서술하고 있으면서 황도 십이궁도 (rāśi)를 호흡 수행의 원리를 수용하고 있다. 본 논문은 『바시슈타상히따』에 서술된 내용 가운데 황도 십이궁도에 따른 호흡 수행을 중심으로 내용을 논한다.

This study is about the Changdeokgung Palace and detached palaces of architect Park Jacheong who was a representative supervisor having framed the palace architecture of the Joseon Dynasty. The results are as follows. First, Park Jacheong had been in charge of Changdeokgung Palace for 15 years since its founding. The palace was continued to run for the longest time and was the palace on the frame made by him for the years, so Changdeokgung Palace’s status has become as good as Gyeongbokgung Palace’s. Second, he built a lot of palaces besides Changdeokgung. They were completed about the same time in accordance with the political intentions of King Taejong. Park Jacheong was a former military officer and was well skilled in mobilization of manpower and materials by making good use of the military power. Third, the detached palaces constructed by him were located in the places where military training and testing of new weapons were possible. They were also used as sleeping, dining and office spaces. This can be regarded as a result of the tradition of the storied-pavilion that had been since the Goryeo Dynasty, with the method of approaching to the main hall of the palace.
