[Introduction to the Contents]
From the late Edo period to the Meiji period, Buddhist astronomy was systematized by the Buddhist monk Fumon Entsu, called "Bon reki" (Bon calendar).
More than one thousand disciples called him "the founder" and established a network called "Shureki-sha" (Shureki-sha), which was active in various places.
Why such a large thought activity has been forgotten.
This work is motivated to systematize the astronomical theory in Buddhist scriptures and the disc-shaped world image called "Shumidai" which is the background of the theory at the same level as modern natural science, and to demonstrate the practicability of the theory from the perspective of "how" rather than "what" is said.
