Recorded origin, in the register's own words
o "광려산" 이란 중국의 "려"산을 닮았다고 해서 "려" 자를 따오고 그 려산에 살았다는 신선 "광유"의 이름인 "광" 자를 합쳐 "광려산" 이라고 했음
This paragraph is the origin and history field of the traditional temple register published by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, copied exactly. We leave it in Korean rather than translating it, because a translation would put founding dates, people and schools of Buddhism into words the source never used. Nothing here was added or edited by us.
