초록

Many Christian Mystics and Zen Buddhists seek after truth that can be seen literally through a series of religious images such as Love, Mystic Union, Nothingness, Darkness, Death, Silence, etc. It is obvious that San Juan de la Cruz and Han Yong-un are the representatives who manage the religious images with the artistic ability of high level in expressing the process of the transcendental enlightenment or mystic reunion.
The image of Death has very important and symbolic meaning for these seekers after truth who have intense aspirations toward the mystic union with the One or spiritual enlightenment. For them the death does not mean the end of the human being, but the turning point to set up a new and real construction of the human being and his spirituality, because without the destruction of the old and false cognition one can not build up a new and true construction that could be the real reunion with the Truth.
Therefore, the image of Death does not have any kind of negativeness, but a positive meaning for the possibility to the essential change of the relations between the human being and Holy God or the True Moment of Enlightenment. The image changes a negative meaning into a positive one for those who believe the spiritual reconstruction or rebirth.
In this process some readers of the mystic and transcendental experiences can experience also the psychological change of themselves. This image of Death could be the symbolic and therapeutic meaning of the end of the false and painful life for those who see the fact that the image has changed the negative one into the positive one such as in the cases of the poets. The image of Death that appear in the poems of San Juan de la Cruz and Han Yong-un can be used to apply for the Therapeutic process in the Literary Therapy.
