Recorded origin, in the register's own words

1875년 두타산 칠부능선에 암자를 창건 계승하다가 1968년 김영옥스님이 계승하고 1976년 취약성 독립가옥으로 철거된 후 800미터 쯤 내려와서 현재의 위치에 사찰을 창건하고 불법승 삼보의 보자와 두타산의 타자를 따서 보타살 명명 현재에 이르고 있음.

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.
