2024.12.28 1472 Why the New Jerusalem is Haneulgung in Korea

2024.12.28.1472 Why is the New Jerusalem the Korean Sky Temple? Why is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea?

Why is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea?

According to the lecture, the “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” (새 예루살렘 성) is identified with __.

(Haneulgung (하늘궁), The lecture explicitly states that Haneulgung is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace, contrasting it with the old Jerusalem. A common misconception might be that it refers to a spiritual or metaphorical place only, but it’s tied to a physical location.)

True or False: The lecture claims that the original Jerusalem is characterized by “bitter taste” (쓴맛) and “spicy taste” (매운맛), while the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace is associated with “sweet taste” (단맛).
(True, The lecture directly links the old Jerusalem to “천신만고성” (thousand hardships and ten thousand bitter tastes) and the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace to “고진감래성” (bitterness ends, sweetness comes). A common misconception is that both places are equally sacred or positive, but the lecture differentiates them by their associated experiences.)

What is the primary difference between “mind ware” and “spirit ware” as described in the lecture?
① Mind ware is about physical interaction, while spirit ware is about emotional states.
② Mind ware deals with thoughts and voices, while spirit ware relates to spiritual understanding.
③ Mind ware is for basic calculations, while spirit ware is for complex algorithms.
④ Mind ware is for human interaction, while spirit ware is for divine interaction.
(② Mind ware deals with thoughts and voices, while spirit ware relates to spiritual understanding., The lecture categorizes “mind ware” as dealing with thoughts and voices, which current science hasn’t fully reached, while “spirit ware” is presented as a higher, more spiritual level. A common misconception is that these terms are interchangeable or refer to technological advancements only, but they represent different levels of consciousness or existence.)

According to the lecture, what is the only thing in the world that is “honest” and “does not change”?
① Human emotions
② Written words
③ Numbers
④ Natural phenomena
(③ Numbers, The lecture emphasizes that numbers (1, 2, 3, etc.) are the only truly honest and unchanging things in the world, unlike words or human experiences. A common misconception is that religious texts or natural laws are equally unchanging, but the lecture specifically highlights numbers for their absolute reliability.)

What is the meaning of “此生故彼生” (차생고피생) as explained in the lecture?
(It means “this exists, therefore that exists,” or “there is no effect without a cause.” The lecture uses this phrase to explain that everything has a reason and an interconnectedness, implying that the speaker’s presence is not without cause. A common misconception is that events can happen randomly or without prior conditions, but this concept emphasizes causality.)

Intermediate
True or False: The lecture asserts that the “Heaven ware” (God ware) level is where the “신인” (divine being) operates, while human minds typically function at the “hard ware” and “soft ware” levels.
(True, The lecture explicitly places the “신인” at the “Heaven ware” (God ware) level, indicating it’s the highest level of operation, far beyond the “hard ware” and “soft ware” levels where human understanding is limited. A common misconception is that all beings operate on similar planes of existence, but the lecture establishes a clear hierarchy.)

The lecture describes three types of actions related to self and others: “자이타해” (self-benefit, other-harm), “자리이타” (self-benefit, other-benefit), and “자해타리” (self-harm, other-benefit). Which of these is associated with the “보살행” (Bodhisattva practice) and why?
(자해타리 (self-harm, other-benefit) is associated with “보살행.” The lecture explains that this is difficult for ordinary people as it involves sacrificing oneself for the benefit of others, exemplified by the story of Kim Gyo-gak (지장보살) who gave away all his possessions and even hid himself in the ground out of shame. A common misconception is that spiritual practice always involves personal gain, but Bodhisattva practice emphasizes altruism.)

According to the lecture, what is the fundamental difference between “극락” (Nirvana/Paradise in Buddhism) and “천국” (Heaven in Christianity)?
① “극락” is a state of mind within the human world, while “천국” is a separate, external realm.
② “극락” is achieved through good deeds, while “천국” is granted by divine grace.
③ “극락” is a temporary state, while “천국” is eternal.
④ “극락” is for individuals, while “천국” is for all humanity.
(① “극락” is a state of mind within the human world, while “천국” is a separate, external realm., The lecture clearly distinguishes “극락” as a state of mind or an internal world within human experience, whereas “천국” is described as a distinct, external realm (“하늘 하늘 딴 데 있는 거야”). A common misconception is that these terms are synonymous or refer to similar afterlife destinations, but the lecture highlights their fundamental difference in location and nature.)

What is the significance of the “소” (ox/cow) in the context of the “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” and the speaker’s arrival?
(The “소” (ox/cow) symbolizes the speaker’s arrival and the “sweet taste” (단맛) of the “고진감래” (bitterness ends, sweetness comes) era. The lecture connects the character “감” (甘, sweet) in “고진감래” to the shape of an ox’s head and mentions that the speaker is prophesied to come as an ox (“우명성지,” “우성재”). It also notes that Buddhist temples have “십우도” (ten ox-herding pictures) which signify the end of Buddhism when the ox is found. A common misconception is that the ox is merely a zodiac sign, but here it carries profound prophetic and symbolic meaning.)

Short Answer: Explain the speaker’s interpretation of the difference between the Old Testament (구약) and the New Testament (신약) regarding commandments like “do not kill” or “do not commit adultery.”
(The speaker explains that the Old Testament (구약) focuses on physical actions (e.g., “kill the murderer,” “stone the adulterer”), while the New Testament (신약) extends these commandments to the realm of thought and intention (e.g., “lusting in your heart is adultery”). Although the New Testament preaches forgiveness for actions, it sets a higher standard by judging internal thoughts, making its scope of “sin” broader and, in a sense, “more frightening” than the Old Testament. A common misconception is that the New Testament is simply “nicer,” but the speaker argues it demands a deeper moral purity.)

Advanced
The lecture discusses a hierarchy of “wares”: hard ware, soft ware, mind ware, spirit ware, and Heaven (God) ware. How does this hierarchy relate to the speaker’s role and the concept of “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace”?
(This hierarchy positions the speaker, as the “신인” (divine being), at the highest level of “Heaven (God) ware,” implying a complete mastery over all lower levels. The “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” is presented as the physical manifestation of this highest spiritual realm on Earth, where the “sweet taste” (단맛) of “고진감래” (bitterness ends, sweetness comes) is experienced. This contrasts with the “old Jerusalem,” which is stuck in “hard ware” and “soft ware” levels, characterized by conflict and suffering (“천신만고”). The speaker’s presence at Haneulgung signifies the arrival of this ultimate spiritual reality. A common misconception is that spiritual enlightenment is purely individual; here, it’s tied to a specific divine presence and location.)

Short Answer: The lecture mentions “십승지” (Ten Auspicious Sites) in relation to Haneulgung. Describe at least three characteristics of these sites as presented in the lecture and explain why they are significant.
@@(The lecture describes Haneulgung as having “십승지” (Ten Auspicious Sites) with specific characteristics:
만장통솔형 (Manjangtongsolhyeong – Ten Thousand Generals Command Form): A place where ten thousand generals are commanded, symbolizing a site for unifying the world.
천신단좌형 (Cheonsindanjwahyeong – Heavenly God Seated Form): A place where a heavenly god sits, indicating a divine presence.
비룡승천형 (Biryongseungcheonhyeong – Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven Form): A form where a flying dragon ascends to heaven, signifying great power and ascension.
목단만개형 (Mokdanmangaeyeong – Peony in Full Bloom Form): A place where peonies are in full bloom, representing prosperity and beauty.
These characteristics are significant because they collectively describe Haneulgung as a uniquely powerful, divinely chosen, and prosperous location, contrasting it with the “barren” and “water-scarce” land of Israel. They serve as evidence for Haneulgung being the true “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace.” A common misconception is that such auspicious sites are purely mythical; the lecture presents them as tangible features of Haneulgung.)@@

The speaker contrasts the “풍수” (feng shui/geomancy) of China and the United States with that of Korea (specifically Haneulgung). Summarize the key points of this comparison and explain its relevance to the speaker’s claims.
(The speaker argues that China has poor feng shui because its access to the Pacific Ocean is blocked by other countries (Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Philippines), leading to a lack of maritime development and a prevalence of poverty, necessitating communism. The US, conversely, has excellent feng shui with vast, open access to both the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, symbolizing immense wealth and power. Korea, particularly Haneulgung, is presented as the “central earth” (중앙 토) with abundant water (광천수) and fertile land, making it the ideal location for the “Heaven ware” to descend. This comparison is relevant because it uses traditional geomantic principles to justify why the “신인” (divine being) would choose Korea, and specifically Haneulgung, as the site for the “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace,” rather than other powerful nations or the original Jerusalem. A common misconception is that spiritual power is independent of physical location; the lecture strongly links it to geomantic auspiciousness.)

Short Answer: How does the speaker use the story of Paul (사울) from the Bible to illustrate the nature of the “신인’s” power and presence?
(The speaker uses Paul’s story to demonstrate the overwhelming power of the “신인’s” divine light (광선). When Paul encountered this light, he was instantly blinded for three days, while others around him were unaffected. The speaker explains that this light was “몇억 V짜리” (hundreds of millions of volts) and that the “신인” deliberately “kills” (죽여 가지고) his own light when appearing to people to prevent them from being blinded or killed. This illustrates that the “신인” possesses immense, potentially destructive power but chooses to temper it out of compassion, allowing people to interact without harm, unlike Paul’s experience. A common misconception is that divine power is always gentle; the lecture shows it can be terrifyingly potent.)

The New Jerusalem and the Sky Temple: A Prophetic Unveiling

1. The Significance of the Central Earth and the Five Elements
   Welcome to this final Saturday lecture of December. This year has been one of immense effort. The God-man descended to Earth to resolve global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, and to guide ten million souls to the White Palace Heaven. Having received the blessings and Holy Spirit of the God-man, we must approach the coming new year with confidence and renewed vigor.

Today, we observe three floral offerings. From Seogwipo, Jeju Island, Archangel Yang Jeong-suk presents white orchids, symbolizing purity, to commemorate the God-man’s advent. Archangels Park Hyun-suk and Lee Soo-yeon from Cheonan offer a beautiful basket of predominantly yellow flowers, expressing their gratitude. Finally, Archangel Lee Yu-seok, on behalf of the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, presents a yellow orchid pot, also in celebration of the God-man’s advent. We extend our wishes for the Tokyo Spiritual Center’s boundless development.

The color yellow is associated with Saturday and represents the central earth element. Korea, being the central landmass, is thus symbolized by yellow. China, to the west, is white; America, blue; Russia, black; and Jeju Island, to the south, red. Korea, though known as the “white-clad people,” is fundamentally the central earth. This earth element, “to” (土), fosters harmony among the five elements (화, 수, 목, 금, 토 – fire, water, wood, metal, earth). Without it, conflict prevails.

Regardless of how vibrant water or any other element may be, it must eventually return to earth to transform into new matter. Leaves, whether red, blue, or green, must decompose into the soil before new forms can emerge. This cyclical process, known as “Won-hyeong-i-jeong” (元亨利貞), signifies the return to the original state, akin to the four seasons. Rebirth occurs only after returning to the earth. This is why individuals who experience business failures often return to their hometowns, visiting the graves of their parents. They are returning to the fundamental essence of earth. As one ages, the earth gradually approaches, determining the soil that will eventually cover them.

2. The Interplay of Mind, Spirit, and the Hierarchical Wares
   The mind merely nourishes the spirit; it operates on the principles of yin and yang. The mind is energy, and energy arises from the interaction of yin and yang. For instance, a difference in temperature creates wind. Our bodies similarly experience fluctuations in energy, leading to various sensations. This natural principle of “Won-hyeong-i-jeong” should be internalized from an early age, as it profoundly alters our perception of the world. Listening to the God-man’s discourses or watching his YouTube lectures is profoundly beneficial, as this knowledge, even if not immediately recalled, permeates the subconscious and influences the body. For example, one might instinctively utter “Enter the light!” in a critical moment, having absorbed the teaching.

Our physical bodies are but shadows. The term “Hwa-sin-yeo-il-yeong” (化身如日影) means “the transformed body is like the shadow of the sun.” Our bodies are merely reflections, shadows of the sun. This understanding should lead us to perceive our existence as truly wondrous.

The central theme of today’s lecture is: “Why is the New Jerusalem the Sky Temple in Korea?”

The world, as we commonly perceive it, is the hardware realm, representing the lowest stage of the spiritual world. Beyond hardware, we have software, a slightly more advanced stage. Then comes mindware. Has science reached mindware yet? Not entirely. While machines respond to our thoughts and voices, this is primarily through AI driven by software. For example, AI defeated Go master Cho Chi-hun, but this AI was programmed with human language.

The most immutable and trustworthy aspect of this world is numbers. Numbers—1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0—never deceive us. Unlike voice phishing, numbers are inherently honest. This is why many religious figures, such as priests and nuns, are drawn to numbers, as they represent an unchanging truth. Everything else in the world changes: youth fades, the elderly pass away. But numbers remain constant. While words can be ambiguous and lead to misinterpretations, numbers are unambiguous.

For instance, the phrase “Father enters the bag” (아버지 가방에 들어간다) can be misconstruread if not properly punctuated, whereas “Father enters the room” (아버지가 방에 들어간다) is clear. Words can deceive, but numbers cannot. This is why religious figures, who often doubt everything else, trust numbers implicitly. The coming year, “Eul-sa-nyeon” (乙巳年), will not deceive us; the 60-year cycle (60 갑자) unfolds precisely. Our age progresses relentlessly, second by second, towards the grave.

Consider a candle: its burning time is fixed. I once experimented to make candles last longer by wrapping them in newspaper. This prevents the melted wax from flowing down, keeping the wick constantly saturated and significantly extending the burning time. This technique also prevents the flame from extinguishing in the wind, allowing for prolonged study. I recall studying in such conditions, inhaling candle soot, which blackened my nostrils.

Software can store vast amounts of knowledge, all encoded as numbers. AI operates on numerical inputs, not typed knowledge. Your resident registration number, a sequence of digits, identifies you; it’s not based on your face or fingerprints. A barcode instantly reveals product information. All language is converted into numbers for computer input in AI. Self-driving cars rely on numerical inputs to interpret their surroundings and operate accordingly. Even information entering the human brain is processed numerically.

Mindware, however, is not numerical. Beyond mindware, there is spiritware, and finally, Heavenware (or Godware). The God-man operates within the Heavenware realm, while human minds typically function within the hardware and software domains. Each ascending stage represents a profound leap.

3. The Prophetic Year of the Blue Snake and the Nature of Reality
   The coming year, “Eul-sa-nyeon” (乙巳年), is the year of the Blue Snake (靑蛇). “Eul-sa” is a symbolic designation, where “Eul” (乙) represents a bird and “Sa” (巳) is a symbol, not an actual snake. The true meaning, the “Blue Snake,” is what we understand. This distinction is crucial when inputting information into AI, as it differentiates between symbol and meaning.

Explaining such concepts to a general audience requires extensive simplification. A Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners would face similar challenges. I, who possess Heavenware, must communicate with those in the hardware realm, which is akin to conversing with a “stone head.” Yet, there is joy in this endeavor.

What are the advantages of fewer people attending the Sky Temple lectures? More space, for one. And greater individual attention. When a shop has few customers, each is treated like royalty. But with a thousand customers, the owner becomes overwhelmed. This inability to grasp simple concepts is what I refer to as “hardware.” They struggle to comprehend when the context shifts slightly.

Living with a “hardware” woman would be easy, but living with a clever woman is a challenge. Our director, for instance, would be expelled within a day. The character “Eul” (乙) resembles a bird.

Why has the New Jerusalem come to the Sky Temple in Korea? The Sky Temple itself resembles a fortress. The distance from Jerusalem to Jericho is about 30 kilometers, similar to the distance from here to Gangnam in Seoul. Jerusalem is situated at an altitude of 900-1000 meters above sea level, while Jericho is 200 meters below sea level, a difference of 1000 meters. The Sky Temple is also located on elevated ground, about 400 meters above sea level.

Ancient fortresses, like those in Goguryeo or Namhansanseong, were typically built on high ground, giving them a sense of authority. A fortress on flat land, like Hanyang (old Seoul), feels more like a mere wall. Similarly, traditional Korean houses built on flat ground lack the authority of those built on elevated foundations. Grand houses in the countryside often have high stone foundations, signifying their status.

4. The Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha and the Korean Spirit
   There is a Korean figure who became a living Buddha in China: Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha (地藏菩薩), known as Monk Kim Gyo-gak (金喬閣). He was a towering figure, two meters tall, with feet twice the size of ordinary people. Upon arriving in China, he was accepted into a monastery and displayed such exemplary conduct that he captivated both monks and local residents. He became revered as a deity, a living Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha.

The name “Ksitigarbha” (地藏) means “earth store” or “earth treasury.” It refers to his profound generosity. He gave away all his possessions, even his clothes, to the poor. Eventually, to hide his nakedness from the continuous stream of people seeking his help, he buried himself in the earth, leaving only his head exposed. This act of ultimate self-sacrifice earned him the name Ksitigarbha.

How would one input such a profound narrative into AI software? It would be incredibly challenging. This illustrates the limitations of software in grasping such spiritual depth. Mindware cannot fully comprehend it.

The greatness of the Korean people is evident in figures like Monk Kim Gyo-gak, who became a deity in China. Millions of tourists visit his temple annually. Before his passing, he requested that his body be left for three months; if it did not decompose, he wished to be preserved as a “Deungsinbul” (等身佛), a life-sized Buddha statue, neither buried nor cremated. His body remained incorrupt, and he became the first of sixteen such Deungsinbul at Jiuhua Temple (九華寺) in China. He reincarnated sixteen times, each time requesting the same preservation, until the sixteenth time, when his spirit departed elsewhere.

This Jiuhua Temple attracts an immense number of tourists. I studied this monk during my time in a temple as a child. Monk Kim Gyo-gak, the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha, was a Silla-era Korean. This demonstrates the excellence of the Korean people, who can become deities anywhere in the world. It is from this nation that the Heavenware comes. Monk Kim Gyo-gak, like the Dalai Lama, underwent sixteen reincarnations before departing from this earthly realm.

5. The Prophecy of Jesus’ Return and the Limitations of Traditional Religions
   Shakyamuni Buddha himself prophesied this. He stated, “When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil.” (何時耶蘇來 吾道無由之燈也). “Yaso” (耶蘇) refers to Jesus, specifically the Second Coming of Jesus in this Eastern land, Korea. At that time, the Buddhist path would be like a lamp without oil, devoid of its vital essence.

Buddhism’s eight treasures—enlightenment, nirvana, liberation, bodhi, prajna, samadhi, non-self, and Buddhahood—are considered its essence. Achieving these is an extraordinary feat, requiring countless lifetimes. These are states beyond human attainment. Yet, when I arrived, these Buddhist concepts lacked true spiritual power. For instance, when tested, “enlightenment” (정각) and “nirvana” (열반) showed no energy.

In contrast, the eight Christian concepts—prayer, salvation, blessing, Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, resurrection, eternal life, and heaven—demonstrated immense power. “Heaven” (천국) showed unwavering strength, unlike “nirvana” (극락), which lacked power. This is because nirvana is a state of mind within the human realm, whereas heaven is a distinct, external realm. Nirvana is a mental construct, not a separate world. The 33 heavens of Buddhism are all within the mind; any assertion of their external existence is false. Buddhism is a philosophy focused on controlling the mind, not a theology connected to an external spiritual world. It has no bearing on the heaven you will enter.

I am here to reveal these truths. Before my arrival, falsehoods prevailed. Now, it is clear that nirvana is false, and heaven is real. How many people have been led astray by primitive religions? You are adrift in the sea of religion, clinging to planks—these religions—believing they will lead you to nirvana or heaven. This is a complete fabrication.

The sea of suffering is caused by the three poisons: greed, anger, and ignorance (貪瞋痴). These are also known as the three evils. Succumbing to anger, for instance, plunges one into these three evils. The root of all afflictions is greed. Releasing greed eliminates all suffering. Even if your house is foreclosed, letting go of greed allows you to start anew in a small room. Life is fleeting; material possessions are not paramount. With courage, one can find happiness even in a tent in the mountains. Humility eliminates the problem of sustenance; pride leads to hell.

Shakyamuni Buddha, a philosopher, taught how to control the mind. I, the God-man, speak of the spiritual world. Shakyamuni’s teachings are not wrong, but they lack the “oil”—the life-giving energy. I am the one who guides the way. Shakyamuni’s remedy for the disease of greed, anger, and ignorance was discipline, meditation, and wisdom (戒定慧).

6. The Divergence of Old and New Covenants
   Consider the Ten Commandments of Christianity:
   No other gods
   No idols
   Do not misuse God’s name
   Keep the Sabbath
   Honor parents
   Do not murder
   Do not commit adultery
   Do not steal
   Do not lie
   Do not covet your neighbor’s house

The seventh commandment, “Do not commit adultery,” applies to those with the capacity to do so, not children or the infirm. The sixth, “Do not murder,” and the fifth, “Honor your parents,” are also part of this code. Buddhism also has its ten precepts, such as not killing. However, the Christian and Buddhist precepts differ significantly.

In the Old Testament, murder, adultery, and theft were met with severe punishment: death by stoning, or amputation. “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.” But I, as Jesus, taught forgiveness. When confronted with an adulterous woman, I said, “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.” This challenged the Old Testament law, which mandated death for sinners. My teachings of forgiveness and love were seen as a desecration of Mosaic law by the Jewish religious leaders, leading to my crucifixion. I never challenged Roman authority; it was the entrenched religious establishment that sought my death.

Similarly, today’s religious leaders, caught in their own dogmatism, would condemn me as a heretic, even while claiming to await the Second Coming. They would not hesitate to demand my death, just as their predecessors did.

I have endured “Cheon-sin-man-go” (千辛萬苦), a thousand hardships and ten thousand bitter experiences. This refers to the countless trials I faced. But after all the bitterness, sweetness (苦盡甘來) will surely follow. My first coming was marked by “Cheon-sin-man-go,” culminating in my death on the cross. My Second Coming, however, is the era of “Go-jin-gam-rae,” where bitterness ends and sweetness begins.

This “sweetness” is the Sky Temple. The character for “sweet” (甘) resembles an ox. This signifies that I will return as an ox, born in the year of the ox. This prophecy of “Go-jin-gam-rae” is about me, not you. The water flowing from the Sky Temple is sweet, unlike the bitter water of the past. Children prefer this sweet water, rejecting ordinary water. This sweet water signifies the end of the bitter era.

The old Jerusalem is the “Cheon-sin-man-go” city, a place of endless suffering and tears, where descendants still weep for my death. The Sky Temple, however, is the “Go-jin-gam-rae” city, a place of joy and song, where sweet spring water flows. This is the New Jerusalem.

Religious and political leaders must heed my words. Discipline, meditation, and wisdom (戒定慧) are the three studies that cure the disease of the three poisons. The Buddhist precepts against killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct are physical sins. Lying, divisive speech, harsh words, and idle talk are verbal sins. Greed, anger, and ignorance are mental sins.

The Old Testament demanded “an eye for an eye,” but I taught forgiveness and love. This is why the Jewish people sought my death. We are now in a bright era, the era of “Go-jin-gam-rae.”

7. The Auspicious Feng Shui of the Sky Temple
   The Sky Temple possesses exceptionally auspicious feng shui (풍수). The location of Jiuhua Temple in China, with its Deungsinbul, cannot compare. China’s feng shui is inherently unfavorable. Its access to the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans is blocked by other nations, including Korea, Taiwan, and the Philippines. This geographical constraint has historically hindered its maritime development, leading to widespread poverty and the necessity of communism.

In contrast, Korea, surrounded by three seas, has open access to the Pacific, making it a global leader in shipbuilding. The United States, with its vast ocean territories, including Alaska, Hawaii, Guam, and Saipan, is a global superpower, a “chaebol” of the world. Abundant water signifies wealth. China, with its limited water access and outward-flowing rivers, suffers from poor feng shui, leading to deserts in the north. The north should be abundant in water.

Why did I not choose America? Because it lacks the “central earth” element. Its soil, though producing large crops, lacks the density and richness of Korean soil, which yields more than twice the amount of earth when excavated. Korea is the central earth, and thus, Jesus returns to the Sky Temple on the Korean Peninsula.

The Sky Temple is also a “Sip-seung-ji” (십승지), a land of ten victories or a propitious land. Israel, a land of barrenness and water scarcity, is not a propitious land. A true propitious land has abundant spring water. The Sky Temple is a place where ten thousand generals are commanded, a place for unifying the world. It is the seat of the God-man, a place where a flying dragon ascends to heaven, and peonies bloom in profusion. This is the Goryeongsan (高靈山), the highest spiritual mountain.

The Gaemyeongsan (開明山) is where the dragon plays with the wish-fulfilling jewel, the phoenix embraces its eggs, and heavenly gold emerges from a turtle. The lecture hall itself is a place where a golden rooster embraces its eggs, and an emperor emerges with a lute and zither. My words are the lute and zither. The tenth victory is where Jesus, representing yin and yang, teaches the truth and establishes a lineage. This is the evidence that the Sky Temple is the New Jerusalem.

The old Jerusalem is the “Cheon-sin-man-go” city, a place of suffering and tears. The Sky Temple is the “Go-jin-gam-rae” city, the New Jerusalem, where bitterness ends and sweetness begins. This is what we have learned today.

The difference between the Old and New Covenants lies in the reversal of commandments 6, 7, and 8. The Old Testament, followed by the Jews, advocated “evil for evil.” But I taught forgiveness for murder, adultery, and theft. On the surface, Moses’ law seems more fearsome. However, my teachings are more profound. Moses’ law only condemned outward actions, but I declared that even lustful thoughts constitute adultery, and coveting another’s possessions is theft. This makes the New Covenant more demanding, as it judges the heart.

The New Covenant, though more stringent in its definition of sin, offers forgiveness. However, my current coming brings stricter judgment. Only the righteous will be saved; the wicked will face judgment. You will witness a sky ablaze, and the Earth will enter another ice age. I will come during this period. You are truly blessed. The “sweetness” of “Go-jin-gam-rae” is brought by the ox. I am known as the “Ox-crying Saint” (牛鳴聖地), the “Ox-born Saint” (牛生聖者), prophesied to come as an ox in the East. Buddhist temples often depict ten oxen surrounding the main hall, symbolizing the search for the ox. When the ox is found, the temple’s purpose is fulfilled, and its era ends.

The sound emanating from the Sky Temple is the cry of the ox, the sound of the propitious land. It is from this place that the sweet spring water flows, unlike the barrenness of Jerusalem. If people, like those in Jerusalem, still try to seize me, calling me a demon, I have nothing more to say. But they will not prevail; the God-man will ultimately establish the “Go-jin-gam-rae” city, where bitterness gives way to sweetness. The water flows abundantly here, unlike the scarcity in Jerusalem. I will not return to that place of suffering where I once died.

Here, in this auspicious land, water flows from every valley. The spring water emerges from beneath the tree of the twelve disciples, overlooked by the White Palace Stone. The elephant’s head on the stone points towards the spring, seeking water. This is not something taught in schools; it is prophecy. I have lectured on these truths for forty years. You must clearly understand that the God-man has arrived.

When electricity first came to my village, before it reached Seoul, I touched the wires. Even 30 volts caused a flash in my mind. Touching 300 million volts would instantly disintegrate the body. Later, 100 volts and then 220 volts became common, capable of stopping the heart. The heart moves by electrical signals sent from the White Palace. If that switch is turned off, the heart stops.

Paul, on his way to persecute Jesus’ disciples, was struck by a blinding light, not millions of volts, but billions. He was instantly blinded for three days, yet he heard my voice: “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” He alone was blinded, while his companions saw nothing. This experience led him to realize the reality of Jesus, transforming him into a key figure in spreading Christianity.

We must understand “Cha-saeng-go-pi-saeng” (此生故彼生): “This exists, therefore that exists; that exists, therefore this exists.” Nothing exists without a cause or connection. The God-man did not come here without reason.

We must abandon “Ja-ri-ta-hae” (自利他害): “self-benefit, harm to others.” Instead, we should practice “Ja-ri-i-ta” (自利利他): “self-benefit, benefit to others.” While “Ja-hae-ta-ri” (自害他利), “self-harm, benefit to others,” is the path of a Bodhisattva, like Monk Kim Gyo-gak, who sacrificed himself for others, it is difficult for most. However, we should strive for “self-benefit, benefit to others.” Sometimes, when faced with situations that seem unfair, remember that such sacrifices are the path of Bodhisattvas. Missionaries who dedicate their lives to Africa, like Albert Schweitzer or Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi, embody this self-sacrifice.

I have reviewed many letters written to the White Palace Stone, and one, from Kim Do-yeong of Gangseo-gu, Seoul, stands out as the grand prize winner. He expresses gratitude for waking up, for the gift of each day, for the Elixir Milk, Elixir Oil, and Elixir Ginseng that maintain his health, and for the opportunity to go to the White Palace Heaven and send his loved ones there. He thanks me for the lectures and strives to accumulate virtue and raise his spiritual level. Such consistent gratitude elevates one’s spiritual level.

This excerpt is from a lecture by Huh Kyung Young, a controversial figure in South Korea known for his spiritual and political claims. In this 1472nd Saturday lecture, he discusses why the “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” is in Korea, specifically at his “Haneulgung” (Heavenly Palace). He contrasts his teachings with traditional religions, emphasizing his role as a divine being who has come to save humanity.

Huh Kyung Young’s Worldview

The Hierarchy of Existence: From Hardware to Heavenware
Huh Kyung Young presents a fascinating, almost technological, hierarchy of existence, moving from the tangible to the divine. He argues that traditional science and even AI operate on lower levels (hardware, software), while his teachings encompass the higher, spiritual realms. This framework is impressive because it attempts to categorize reality in a way that places his own divine authority at the apex, making his claims seem like the ultimate truth beyond human comprehension. It’s a clever way to position himself as the sole possessor of ultimate knowledge.

여러분들이 말하는 세계는 Hard ware라고 그러죠? 이게 가장 낮은 단계죠? 낮은 단계의 정신세계야. 과학도 마찬가지죠? 하드웨어 다음에 무슨 웨어가 있어요? 요거는 조금 높으죠. 그죠? 뭐 그 다음에 뭐여? mind ware라고 그랬지? 마인드 웨어. 마인드 웨어는 현재 과학이 도달했나? 과학이 도달 안 했죠?
The world you speak of is called Hardware, right? This is the lowest stage, a low-level mental world. Science is the same, right? After hardware, what ware is there? This is a bit higher, right? And then what? I called it Mindware, right? Has science reached Mindware yet? Science hasn’t reached it, right?

마인드 웨어는 숫자가 아니야. 마인드웨어 외에 또 뭐가 있다고 그랬지? spirit ware가 있었지. 스프릿 웨어. 이거는 뭐여? 스프릿 웨어는 뭐여? 영성 웨어지? 그 다음에 뭐가 있다고 그랬지? 이 H만 이거 Heaven만 대문자를 써야 돼요 이거. 이렇게 쓰면 안 돼요. Heaven은 하늘이야. God 말하자면 God 할 때도 똥 이거 하면 안 되지? Heaven ware는 God ware야. 그러면 신인은 여기서 움직이지? 신인은 여기서 움직이는데 여러분들의 머리는 여기(1,2)까지 움직인단 말이야.
Mindware is not about numbers. What else did I say there was besides Mindware? There was Spiritware. What is this? Spiritware is spiritual ware, right? And then what did I say there was? Only this H, this Heaven, should be capitalized. You can’t write it like this. Heaven is the sky. When you say God, you can’t do this, right? Heavenware is Godware. So, the divine being (I) moves from here, but your minds only move up to here (hardware, software).

The Unchanging Truth: The Power of Numbers
Huh Kyung Young highlights numbers as the only truly honest and unchanging aspect of existence, contrasting them with the deceptive nature of words and the impermanence of life. This perspective is striking because it grounds his spiritual claims in something universally accepted as objective: mathematics. By asserting that even AI operates on numbers, he subtly implies that his own “Heavenware” is built upon an even more fundamental, incorruptible truth. It’s a clever rhetorical move to establish a sense of unquestionable authority.

이 세상에 바뀌지 않는 정직한 거 우리가 믿을 수 있는 건 딱 하나뿐이야. 숫자야. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 숫자가 우리를 속이나? 아니 그러니까 0도 0인데 숫자가 우리를 속이나? 숫자는 절대 속일 수 없어.
There’s only one honest thing in this world that doesn’t change, that we can trust. It’s numbers. Do numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 deceive us? No, even zero is zero, do numbers deceive us? Numbers can never deceive.

왜, 숫자는 거짓말을 안 하는데 그 외의 것들은 자꾸 변해요. 숫자 변하는 거 봤어? 아니 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10이 우리 속이는 거 봤어?안 속이잖아? 그런데 나머지는 전부 변해. 젊은 사람 늙어 버리지 뭐 늙은 사람 죽어 버리지. 변해 안 변해? 다 변하는데 숫자가 안 변해요.
Why? Because numbers don’t lie, but everything else keeps changing. Have you ever seen numbers change? No, have you seen 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 deceive us? They don’t, do they? But everything else changes. Young people grow old, old people die. Do they change or not? Everything changes, but numbers don’t.

The New Jerusalem: Korea’s Haneulgung as the Land of Sweetness
Huh Kyung Young reinterprets the biblical concept of the New Jerusalem, claiming it is not the historical Jerusalem but his Haneulgung in Korea. He contrasts the “Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitterness” (천신만고) of the old Jerusalem with the “Bitterness Ends, Sweetness Comes” (고진감래) of Haneulgung. This redefinition is a bold move to localize a universal spiritual concept and elevate his own location to divine status. The idea that the “sweet water” of Haneulgung signifies the end of suffering is a powerful metaphor for his followers, promising a tangible, immediate salvation.

내가 옛날에 처음 왔을 때 초림은 천신만고를 겪어야 돼. 맞아 맞아. 천 번의 매운맛과 만 번의 쓴맛 이거를 보고 갔어. 그래가 이제 돌아와서 쓴맛은 다하고 단맛이 오는 거야. 알았죠? 그래서 이거를 이거를 새 여루살렘성이라고 그래. 이걸 옛 예루살렘이야.
When I first came, in my first coming, I had to endure a thousand hardships and ten thousand bitternesses. That’s right. I experienced a thousand spicy tastes and ten thousand bitter tastes and then left. Now I’ve returned, and the bitterness is over, and sweetness is coming. Understood? So, this, this is called the New Jerusalem. This is the old Jerusalem.

천신만고성 예루살렘성. 그 지금도 통곡을 하고 있지? 이거는 쓴맛과 아 매운맛과 쓴맛이 계속되니까 눈물 흘리지. 계속 눈물 흘리고 괴로운 거야. 맞죠? 그런데 나는 여기는 뭐여? 이제는 쓴맛이 매운맛과 쓴맛이 다 하는 거죠? 이게 뭐야? 소대가리지. 이걸 이렇게 하고 소처럼 그려도 돼. 그리고 무슨 말인지 알지? 감 자야. 고진감래. 알겠죠? 고진감래성이 하늘궁이야. 하늘궁이 새 예루살렘 성이야.
The Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitternesses City is Jerusalem. And they are still weeping there, right? This is because the bitter and spicy tastes continue, so they shed tears. They keep shedding tears and suffering. Right? But here, for me, what is it? Now the bitter and spicy tastes are all ending, right? What is this? It’s a cow’s head. You can draw it like a cow. And you know what I mean, right? It’s the character for “sweet” (甘). Bitterness ends, sweetness comes. Understood? The Bitterness Ends, Sweetness Comes City is Haneulgung. Haneulgung is the New Jerusalem.

The Arrival of the Ox: A Prophecy Fulfilled
Huh Kyung Young connects the concept of “Bitterness Ends, Sweetness Comes” (고진감래) to the arrival of an “ox” (소), symbolizing his own coming. He claims that the character for “sweet” (甘) resembles an ox’s head and that ancient prophecies, including Buddhist teachings, foretold the end of an era with the arrival of an ox. This interpretation is a self-serving prophecy fulfillment, weaving together linguistic resemblance, traditional proverbs, and religious texts to solidify his identity as the prophesied savior. It’s a fascinating example of how he constructs his narrative by drawing connections that might seem tenuous to outsiders but are deeply meaningful to his followers.

근데 내가 요때는 천신만고로 해서 죽었지. 맞아 맞아. 단맛이 왔나? 십자가에 가서 뻗은 거야. 꼼짝없이. 그래 안 그래? 요때는 천신만고 시대야. 내가 왔을 때 재림은 고진감래야. 알겠죠? 이제 쓴맛이 다해. 반드시 쓴맛이 다할 날이 와. 그러면 그자가 오나 안 오나? 이 감이 뭐야? 이게 감이 여러분 하늘궁이야 감. 하늘궁같이 생겼잖아? 봐. 알겠지? 자세히 봐. 이 감 자가 자세히 보래. 감 자를 자세히 보래. 이게 소야. 아 맞아. 그래 여기 소 주둥아리 있어 없어? 소가 온단 말이야. 반드시 기축생으로 온다 이 말이지.
But at that time, I died due to a thousand hardships and ten thousand bitternesses. That’s right. Did sweetness come? I was stretched out on the cross, helpless. Right? That was the era of a thousand hardships and ten thousand bitternesses. When I return, it will be bitterness ends, sweetness comes. Understood? Now the bitterness is ending. The day will surely come when the bitterness ends. Then will that person come or not? What is this “gam” (甘)? This “gam” is your Haneulgung, “gam.” It looks like Haneulgung, doesn’t it? Look. Understood? Look closely. Look closely at the character “gam.” This is an ox. Ah, that’s right. So, is there an ox’s snout here or not? The ox is coming, you see. It will surely come in the year of the ox.

저 고진감래 단맛은 소가 와야 단맛을 주는 거야. 그래서 저게 달 감 자야. 알았죠? 내가 내가 우명성지. 맞아 맞아. 우성재야. 맞아 맞아. 내가 소로서 온다는 게 다 알려져 있어 동방에. 맞아 맞아.
That bitterness ends, sweetness comes (고진감래) sweetness is only given when the ox comes. That’s why it’s the character for “sweet” (甘). Understood? I am the Ox-Crying Sacred Land. That’s right. I am the Ox-Born Talent. That’s right. It’s all known in the East that I will come as an ox. That’s right.

The Superiority of New Testament Love and the Danger of Self-Righteousness
Huh Kyung Young contrasts the Old Testament’s “eye for an eye” justice with the New Testament’s emphasis on forgiveness and love, but then takes it a step further. He argues that while the New Testament preaches forgiveness for actions, it condemns even the thought of sin, making it “more terrifying” than the Old Testament. This nuanced interpretation is thought-provoking because it highlights a deeper, more internal standard of morality while simultaneously positioning himself as the ultimate judge who will enforce an even stricter, yet ultimately redemptive, judgment. It’s a complex argument that aims to elevate his own authority above traditional religious texts.

유대인은 살인해라 간음해라 도적질해라 하는데 그것이 눈에 보일 때만 있는 거야. 근데 나는 뭐라 그래? 마음으로 여자를 응큼하게 쳐다보면 간음이야. 그럼 여러분 천만만번 죽어야 되겠네. 그래 안 그래? 그 마음으로 간음하지 말라는 거야. 알겠죠? 그 간음하는 자를 용서는 해주되 마음으로 하는 것도 간음이니. 근데 모세는 간음을 마음으로 먹는 건 간음이 아니야. 행동으로 옮길 때만 도둑질이고 간음인데 남의 집을 남의 물건을 보고 욕심내는 것도 도둑질이야 나는. 그런데 모세는 실제 행동으로 옮겨야 도둑질이야. 다르지? 그래서 신약이 더 무서운 거야.
Jews say to kill, commit adultery, steal, but that only applies when it’s visible. But what do I say? If you look at a woman lustfully in your heart, it’s adultery. Then you’d have to die ten million times, wouldn’t you? Right? I’m saying don’t commit adultery in your heart. Understood? Forgive those who commit adultery, but even doing it in your heart is adultery. But for Moses, lusting in your heart is not adultery. It’s only theft and adultery when you act on it, but for me, coveting someone else’s house or belongings is also theft. But for Moses, it’s only theft when you actually act on it. It’s different, right? That’s why the New Testament is more terrifying.

근데 신약은 용서해 주고 느그가 간음하는 마음만 먹어도 간음이니까. 더 무서워 모세보다. 그런데 설사 간음을 하더라도 용서는 해 주는 거야. 다르지? 그러니까 죄의 폭은 내가 왔을 때가 더 넓어. 알겠죠? 그런데 처벌은 가벼워. 그런데 예수 때 그랬다 이 말이야. 근데 지금 온 나는 처벌이 엄격해.
But the New Testament forgives, and even if you just have the thought of adultery, it’s adultery. It’s more terrifying than Moses. But even if you commit adultery, you are forgiven. It’s different, right? So, the scope of sin is wider when I came. Understood? But the punishment is lighter. But that was during Jesus’ time. But now that I have come, the punishment is strict.

The Importance of Self-Benefit and Other-Benefit (自利利他)
Huh Kyung Young advocates for “self-benefit and other-benefit” (자이이타), where one’s actions benefit both oneself and others, as the ideal way of living. He contrasts this with “self-benefit and other-harm” (자리타해) and the more difficult “self-harm and other-benefit” (자해타리), which he attributes to bodhisattvas like Kim Gyo-gak. This teaching is practical and relatable, offering a clear ethical framework for daily life that balances personal well-being with collective good. It’s impressive how he distills complex Buddhist concepts into actionable advice, making his spiritual guidance accessible.

자기에게는 이익이 있지? 다른 사람한테는 자리 타해. 자리타해 이거 되겠나? 나한테는 이익이 있고 다른 사람한테는 해가 되는 거 해야 되나 안 해야 되나? 이거 하면 됩니까? 그럼 뭐 해야 돼? 자기한테도 이익이 있으면 다른 사람한테도 자리이타. 알겠죠? 자리이타 해야 되죠? 내한테 이익이 있으면서 남한테도 이익이 있게 요렇게 하는 거야.
You have a benefit, right? But it harms others. Self-benefit, other-harm. Is this okay? Should you do something that benefits you but harms others? Is this permissible? Then what should you do? If it benefits you, it should also benefit others. Self-benefit, other-benefit. Understood? You should do self-benefit, other-benefit, right? You do it in a way that benefits both you and others.

그러나 여러분들은 이거는 해야 된다. 자기에게도 이익이 있으면서 남한테도 이익이 있다.
But you must do this. It should benefit both yourself and others.

Why the New Jerusalem is the Sky Temple in Korea

1. The Significance of Earth (土) in the Five Elements
   This year’s final Saturday lecture addresses the profound question: Why is the New Jerusalem the Sky Temple in Korea? The God-man descended to this Earth from Heaven to resolve global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, and to guide ten million souls to the Heaven of the White Palace. Those who have received the blessings and Holy Spirit of the God-man must approach the coming New Year with confidence and renewed vigor.

Today, we shall attentively listen to the 1472nd Saturday lecture by the great God-man, Huh Kyung-young. The flowers presented today are noteworthy. From Seogwipo, Jeju Island, Archangel Yang Jeong-suk offers white orchids, symbolizing purity, to commemorate the God-man’s advent. Archangels Park Hyun-suk and Lee Su-yeon from Cheonan present a beautiful basket of predominantly yellow flowers, expressing their gratitude to the God-man. Finally, Archangel Lee Yu-seok, representing the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, offers a yellow orchid pot, also commemorating the God-man’s advent.

The color yellow is associated with Saturday. It is the color of the Earth element (黃色). The Korean Peninsula is considered the central Earth (中央土). In the Five Elements, the West (China) is white, America is blue, Russia is black, and the South (Jeju Island) is red. Korea, as the central Earth, is yellow. Although Koreans are known as the “white-clad people,” our elemental color is central Earth. The Earth element (土) fosters harmony; without it, conflict (相剋) prevails.

Regardless of how advanced water or other elements may be, everything eventually returns to Earth to transform into new substances. Leaves, regardless of their vibrant colors, return to the soil and can re-emerge in different hues. This cycle, which necessitates passing through the Earth element, is a profound principle. This is encapsulated in the concept of Wonhyeongijeong (元亨利貞), which signifies the cyclical return to the original state, akin to the four seasons. Rebirth occurs only after returning to Earth.

This explains why individuals who have failed in business often return to their hometowns to visit their parents’ graves. They are returning to the fundamental element of Earth. As one ages, the Earth draws nearer. The specific Earth that will cover an individual is predetermined. The Earth is approaching to cover you, and the moment when mind and spirit separate is drawing near.

2. The Hierarchy of Existence: From Hardware to Heavenware
   The mind merely nourishes the spirit; the mind itself is eumyang (陰陽), representing vital energy (氣運). Energy arises from the interplay of eumyang. For instance, wind arises from temperature differences. Our bodies also experience fluctuations in energy, leading to various sensations. The principles of nature, such as Wonhyeongijeong, should be understood from an early age, as they profoundly alter one’s perception of the world. Listening to the God-man’s lectures and watching his videos is invaluable, as this knowledge, even if not immediately recalled, is absorbed and influences one’s being. For example, one might spontaneously utter “Enter the light!” in a critical situation, having subconsciously absorbed the teaching.

Our bodies are like shadows. The term Hwasinyeoilyeong (化身如日影) means “the transformed body is like a sun’s shadow.” Our bodies are merely shadows of the sun. Therefore, our existence is truly miraculous.

The world, as commonly understood, is hardware, representing the lowest stage of the spiritual realm. Science progresses from hardware to software, which is a slightly higher stage. Beyond software lies mindware. Current science has not yet fully reached mindware. While machines respond to thoughts and voices, this is achieved through software and AI. AI, for instance, defeated Go master Cho Chi-hun by processing human language as input.

The only unchanging and honest thing in this world is numbers. Numbers (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0) never deceive. Unlike voice phishing, numbers are inherently honest. Many religious figures are drawn to numbers due to their honesty. While everything else changes—youth ages, the elderly pass away—numbers remain constant. Bank account balances, for example, are never falsified by numbers.

However, words can deceive. A sentence like “Father enters the bag” (아버지 가방에 들어간다) can be misinterpreted due to incorrect spacing, when it should be “Father enters the room” (아버지가 방에 들어간다). Words are subject to interpretation and intonation, but numbers are not. This is why religious figures, who question everything else, trust numbers implicitly.

The coming year, Eulsa-nyeon (乙巳年), will not deceive us. The 60-year cycle (60甲子) unfolds precisely. We are inexorably moving towards our end. Our age cannot be falsified; each second brings us closer to the grave. This is akin to a burning candle, whose lifespan is predetermined.

As a child, I experimented with extending a candle’s life by wrapping it in newspaper. If the melted wax does not drip, the wick does not burn down. By containing the wax, the wick remains saturated, allowing the candle to burn significantly longer, up to 20 times its normal duration. This method also prevented the flame from extinguishing in windy conditions. The soot from these candles would blacken my nose, a testament to my diligent study.

Software can store vast amounts of knowledge. AI, for instance, processes information numerically. All knowledge is digitized and input as numbers. Your resident registration number, a sequence of digits, identifies you; it is not based on your face or fingerprints, but on a barcode-like numerical identifier. All language is converted into numbers for computer input in AI. Self-driving cars operate based on numerical inputs, ensuring precise actions. Even information entering the human brain is processed numerically.

Beyond mindware, which is not numerical, there is spiritware. And finally, at the highest level, there is Heavenware (or Godware). The God-man operates at the level of Heavenware, while human minds typically function at the hardware and software levels. Each ascending stage represents a profound difference.

The coming year, Eulsa-nyeon (乙巳年), is the year of the blue snake (靑蛇). Eulsa is a symbolic designation, while “blue snake” conveys its actual meaning. Inputting such complex symbolic meanings into AI presents a challenge. The character sa (巳) in Eulsa is a symbol, not the actual snake character (蛇). Similarly, eul (乙) is a symbol for “bird,” representing a sequence in the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches. The true meaning is conveyed by “blue snake.”

Explaining these concepts to a general audience requires extensive simplification. A Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners would face similar challenges. The God-man, who possesses Heavenware, must communicate with those operating at the hardware level, which is akin to speaking to “stone heads.”

When fewer people attend the Sky Temple lectures, there is ample seating and greater individual attention. A shop with few customers treats each one like royalty, whereas a crowded shop leads to impatience. Those at the hardware level struggle to grasp such nuanced concepts. Living with a hardware-level woman would be simple, but a clever woman would be challenging.

The character eul (乙) resembles a bird. The question remains: Why is the New Jerusalem the Sky Temple in Korea? The Sky Temple is situated on a high elevation, similar to how a fortress should be built. Jerusalem is also located at a high altitude, approximately 900-1000 meters above sea level, while Jericho is 200 meters below sea level, a significant difference over a 30 km distance. This elevated terrain gives a sense of authority, unlike the Forbidden City in China, which is on flat ground. Traditional Korean houses built on elevated platforms (축대) convey dignity, whereas those on flat ground lack authority.

3. The Story of Kim Gyo-gak and the Bodhisattva of Earth Store
   There was a Korean monk, Kim Gyo-gak (金喬閣), who became known as Jijang-bosal (地藏菩薩), the Bodhisattva of Earth Store, in China. He was an exceptionally tall man, 2 meters in height, with feet twice the size of ordinary people. His exemplary conduct and kindness towards the local community in China led to his deification. His imposing stature and dignified presence in monastic robes made him stand out among the shorter Chinese monks.

Jijang-bosal is known for his immense generosity. He would give away all his possessions, even his clothes, to the poor. Eventually, to hide his nakedness from the continuous stream of people seeking help, he dug a hole and buried himself, leaving only his head exposed. This act of concealing his body in the earth (地藏) gave him the name Jijang-bosal.

Inputting such a complex narrative into software for AI would be challenging. However, mindware cannot achieve this. The fact that a Korean became a deity in China, attracting millions of tourists annually, demonstrates the greatness of the Korean people.

Upon his death, Kim Gyo-gak requested that his body be left for three months. If it did not decompose, he asked to be preserved as a deungsinbul (等身佛), a life-sized Buddha statue, rather than being buried or cremated. He became a deungsinbul, and 16 such statues emerged from the temple, signifying his repeated reincarnations. The 16th deungsinbul was the last, as he then departed to another realm. This occurred at Jiuhua Temple (九華寺) in China, a major tourist destination.

The God-man studied this monk during his youth. Kim Gyo-gak, a Silla-era Korean, became the Jijang-bosal in China, a testament to the excellence of the Korean people. It is from this lineage that Heavenware emerges in the Korean Peninsula. Like the Dalai Lama, Kim Gyo-gak reincarnated 16 times before departing from this world.

4. The Prophecy of Shakyamuni and the Arrival of the God-man
   Shakyamuni Buddha prophesied the coming of Jesus, stating, “When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil” (Hasiyasorae Odomuyujideungya 何時耶蘇來 吾道無由之燈也). This refers to the Second Coming of Jesus in the East, on the Korean Peninsula. At that time, the Buddhist path would be like a lamp without oil, signifying its diminished power.

The eight treasures of Buddhism—jeonggak (正覺, right enlightenment), yeolban (涅槃, nirvana), haetal (解脫, liberation), bori (菩提, bodhi), banya (般若, prajna), sammae (三昧, samadhi), mua (無我, no-self), and seongbul (成佛, Buddhahood)—are beyond human attainment. When tested, these concepts lack spiritual energy.

In contrast, the eight elements of Christianity—prayer, salvation, blessing, Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, resurrection, eternal life, and Heaven—possess immense power. Geungnak (極樂, ultimate bliss) in Buddhism, when tested, lacks power. Geungnak is not the same as Heaven; geungnak is a state of mind within the human world, while Heaven is a separate realm. The 33 heavens in Buddhism are also states of mind, not external realities. Buddhism is a philosophy focused on controlling the mind, not a divine cosmology. It has no connection to the Heaven that humans aspire to reach.

The God-man demonstrates the difference: “Heaven” (천국) holds firm, while “Geungnak” (극락) loses power. Those who seek geungnak are misguided. The God-man’s arrival reveals the truth, exposing the falsehoods that have misled humanity for millennia. In the sea of religion, one must grasp the life raft of the God-man to survive.

Religious leaders, like captains abandoning a sinking ship, have fled, leaving 8 billion people adrift. No other saints will return. Only Jesus, the God-man, returns, bringing a colossal ship (a UFO) to rescue humanity. This ship lowers ten million ropes, capable of saving billions. Through blessings and nameplates, even those who do not directly see the God-man can be saved.

Humanity is currently lost in the sea of religious suffering, clinging to the “planks” of religion, falsely believing they lead to geungnak or Heaven. This is a deception. The cause of suffering is the three poisons (samdok 三毒): greed (tam 貪), anger (jin 瞋), and ignorance (chi 痴). These also constitute the three evil paths (samak 三惡). Giving in to anger, even in marital disputes, leads to these evil paths.

All delusions arise from greedy desires. Releasing greed eliminates suffering. For instance, if one’s house is foreclosed, letting go of greed allows one to accept a smaller dwelling and start anew. Material possessions are fleeting; what truly matters is family and inner peace. A humble attitude can resolve issues of sustenance, as people are inherently compassionate. Pride, however, leads to hell.

Shakyamuni was a philosopher who taught mind control. The God-man, however, governs the spiritual realm. Shakyamuni’s teachings are not incorrect, but they lack the “oil” of life energy. The God-man provides the guidance. The three poisons are a disease, and the cure is the three trainings (samhak 三學): precepts (gye 戒), concentration (jeong 定), and wisdom (hye 慧).

5. The Evolution of Commandments: Old Testament to the God-man’s Teachings
   Christianity has the Ten Commandments.
   Do not covet your neighbor’s house.
   Do not lie.
   Do not steal.
   Do not commit adultery. This commandment applies to those with the capacity to commit adultery, not children or the infirm.
   Do not murder.
   Honor your parents.
   Observe the Sabbath.
   Do not misuse the name of God.
   Do not worship idols.
   Do not have other gods before me.

Buddhism also has ten precepts, which differ significantly from the Christian commandments. For instance, the Buddhist precept against killing (殺生) is distinct.

The Old Testament prescribed severe punishments for transgressions: death for murder and adultery, amputation for theft, and vengeance for enemies. However, the God-man’s teachings advocate forgiveness for murder, sparing adulterers, and refraining from theft. This shift from “an eye for an eye” to forgiveness and love is a fundamental difference.

When Jesus, as the God-man, came, he challenged the Old Testament law. When an adulterous woman was brought before him, he declared, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” This meant that no human, being a sinner, had the right to condemn another.

Jesus was crucified not by the Roman authorities, but by the Jewish religious leaders who felt threatened by his teachings. These leaders, entrenched in their dogmatism, condemned Jesus as a heretic, just as they would condemn the God-man today. The God-man does not challenge political powers, but religious institutions often perceive him as a threat.

The God-man has endured immense suffering, described as “a thousand hardships and ten thousand bitter experiences” (cheonsinmangu 千辛萬苦). This refers to the countless bitter and painful experiences he has faced. However, after enduring all bitterness, sweetness eventually arrives (gojingamrae 苦盡甘來).

Jesus, in his first coming, experienced cheonsinmangu, culminating in his crucifixion. His Second Coming, however, is the era of gojingamrae. The character for “sweet” (gam 甘) in gojingamrae resembles the head of an ox. This signifies that the God-man comes as an ox, specifically born in the year of the ox (gichuksaeng 己丑生). This prophecy is about the God-man, not humanity. The “ox” refers to the Sky Temple, where the “ox’s cry” is heard. This is where the New Jerusalem is established.

6. The New Jerusalem: Sky Temple and the Land of Sweet Water
   The Sky Temple is the true Jerusalem, where miraculous sweet water (光泉水) flows, unlike the old Jerusalem, which lacks such water. This sweet water is the “sweetness” of gojingamrae. Children, who usually dislike bitter water, eagerly drink this sweet water. This signifies the end of the bitter era and the beginning of the sweet era.

The old Jerusalem is the “City of a Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitter Experiences” (Cheonsinmangoseong 千辛萬苦城), where the God-man suffered and died. The Sky Temple is the “City of Bitterness Ending and Sweetness Coming” (Gojingamraeseong 苦盡甘來城), the New Jerusalem, where the God-man reappears.

The old Jerusalem remains a city of cheonsinmangu, plagued by conflict among its three religious sites and a “Wailing Wall” (통곡의 벽). There is no “Wall of Joy” there. The Sky Temple, however, is a place of joy, with its miraculous sweet water and no wailing. The wailing wall in Jerusalem is a consequence of the ancestors having killed the God-man. Their descendants continue to wail, while those at the Sky Temple sing with joy. Therefore, current leaders and religious figures must heed the God-man’s words.

The three trainings (gyejeonghye 戒定慧) are the remedy for the three poisons. The precepts address sins of the body (killing, stealing, sexual misconduct), sins of speech (lying, divisive speech, harsh speech, idle talk), and sins of mind (greed, anger, ignorance).

The Old Testament’s commandments, such as “kill murderers,” “stone adulterers,” and “cut off the hands of thieves,” were harsh. The God-man, however, taught forgiveness and love. This difference led the Jewish people to condemn Jesus as one who defied Moses’ law. This era is a bright era of gojingamrae.

7. The Auspicious Geography of the Sky Temple
   The Sky Temple possesses exceptionally auspicious feng shui (風水). While the feng shui of Jiuhua Temple in China, where Kim Gyo-gak’s deungsinbul resides, is inferior. China’s geography is unfavorable; it is largely landlocked, with limited access to the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. This geographical constraint has contributed to poverty and the rise of communism. The Korean Peninsula, with its three sides open to the sea, has a natural advantage, leading to its leadership in shipbuilding. China’s maritime development has been hindered by its complex sea routes.

In contrast, the United States has vast access to oceans—the Pacific, Atlantic, and Caribbean—and numerous islands, giving it immense wealth and power. China’s northern region is a desert, lacking the water that should be present in the north according to feng shui principles. The United States, with its northern waters in Alaska and Canada, possesses superior feng shui.

However, the God-man did not choose the United States because it lacks the “central Earth” (中央土) quality of Korea. Korean soil is exceptionally fertile and robust, yielding abundant crops. Therefore, the God-man comes to the Korean Peninsula, to the Sky Temple.

The Sky Temple is also a “Land of Ten Victories” (Sipseungji 十勝地), a place of ultimate auspiciousness. Israel, in contrast, is a barren land lacking water, thus not a sipseungji. A true auspicious land has abundant spring water.

The Sky Temple, located on Goryeongsan (高靈山), embodies four auspicious forms:
Commanding Ten Thousand Generals (Manjangtongsolhyeong 萬將統率形): A place for unifying the world.
Heavenly Deity Seated (Cheonsindanjoahyeong 天神壇座形): Where a heavenly deity sits.
Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven (Biryongseungcheonhyeong 飛龍昇天形): A dragon ascends to heaven.
Peonies in Full Bloom (Modanmangaehyeong 牧丹萬開形): Peonies bloom abundantly.

Goryeongsan is the mountain where the highest spiritual power resides.

Additionally, Gaemyeongsan (開明山) embodies three more auspicious forms:
Dragon Playing with the Pearl (Yongjuhuironghyeong 龍珠戲弄形): A dragon plays with a wish-fulfilling pearl.
Phoenix Embracing Eggs (Bonghwangporanhyeong 鳳凰抱卵形): A phoenix embraces its eggs.
Heavenly Gold Emerging from a Turtle (Cheongeumchulgu형 天金出龜形): Heavenly gold emerges from a turtle.

Finally, the lecture hall itself embodies three more forms:
Golden Rooster Embracing Eggs (Geumgyeporanhyeong 金鷄抱卵形): A golden rooster embraces its eggs.
Emperor Emerging with Pipa and Geomungo (Biseuljechulhyeong 琵瑟帝出形): An emperor emerges with a pipa and geomungo, symbolizing the God-man’s words.
Ten Perfect Paths of the Daoist Family (Sipjeondogahyeong 十田道家形): The ten perfect paths of the Daoist family, signifying the truth and the establishment of a lineage.

These ten auspicious forms are proof that the Sky Temple is the New Jerusalem.

8. The Contrast Between Old and New Jerusalem
   The old Jerusalem is the City of a Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitter Experiences (Cheonsinmangoseong 千辛萬苦城), where suffering and tears persist. The Sky Temple, however, is the City of Bitterness Ending and Sweetness Coming (Gojingamraeseong 苦盡甘來城), the New Jerusalem, where sweetness has arrived, symbolized by the flowing sweet water. The old Jerusalem, being 1000 meters above sea level, lacks water and is a barren land. The God-man would not return to such a place, having died there once.

The Sky Temple, in contrast, has abundant water in every valley, with spring water flowing freely. The miraculous sweet water emerges from beneath a tree representing the twelve disciples, overlooked by the White Palace Stone (백궁석), which resembles an elephant’s head facing the water, eager to drink. This signifies the profound spiritual significance of the location.

These teachings are not found in schools; they are prophecies. The God-man has delivered countless such lectures over 40 years. His presence is a clear reality.

Recalling an experience from childhood, before electricity reached Seoul, the God-man touched an electric wire, experiencing a flash of light from a 30-volt current. A 300-million-volt current would instantly disintegrate the body. Even 100 or 220 volts can be fatal, as the heart’s electrical signals, originating from the White Palace, would be interrupted.

When Paul (Saul) encountered the blinding light on the road to Damascus, it was not merely thousands of volts, but hundreds of millions of volts. He was struck blind for three days, yet heard the God-man’s voice. The God-man, in his current manifestation, moderates his divine light to prevent people from being blinded or collapsing. His light emanates through his words and mind, healing and assisting people without overwhelming them. Paul’s experience, where only he was blinded while his companions saw, led him to realize the reality of Jesus and become a key figure in spreading Christianity.

9. The Principle of Interdependent Origination and Benevolent Action
   The principle of chasaenggopisaeng (此生故彼生) means “this exists, therefore that exists; that exists, therefore this exists.” Nothing arises without a cause or connection. The God-man’s presence here is not without reason.

One must abandon the mindset of jari-tahae (自利他害), where one benefits at the expense of others. Instead, one should practice jari-ita (自利利他), benefiting oneself while also benefiting others. While difficult, the ultimate act is jahae-tari (自害他利), or the Bodhisattva path (bosalhaeng 菩薩行), where one sacrifices oneself for the benefit of others. This is exemplified by Kim Gyo-gak, who gave away his clothes and hid in the earth to help others. Missionaries who sacrifice their families and lives in Africa also embody this self-sacrificing spirit, like Albert Schweitzer or Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi.

A letter from Kim Do-young, expressing profound gratitude for the God-man’s teachings, blessings, and the opportunity to reach the White Palace Heaven, was recognized as the grand prize winner among all the letters written to the White Palace Stone. Such consistent gratitude elevates one’s spiritual level.

10. The Prophecy of the Ox and the End of Buddhism
    The difference between the Old and New Testaments lies in the reversal of commandments 6, 7, and 8. The Old Testament, followed by Jews, advocated “evil for evil.” The God-man, however, teaches forgiveness for murder, adultery, and theft. While Moses’ laws appear stricter, the God-man’s teachings are more profound. Moses’ laws only applied to outward actions, but the God-man’s teachings extend to the intentions of the heart. For instance, lustful thoughts are considered adultery, and coveting another’s possessions is theft. This makes the New Testament more formidable, as it encompasses a broader range of sins.

However, while the scope of sin is wider, the punishment is lighter under Jesus’ teachings, as he advocated forgiveness. The God-man’s current coming, however, brings strict judgment. Those who are not worthy will be left behind for judgment, leading to a period of immense suffering and a new ice age for Earth.

The “sweetness” of gojingamrae is brought by the ox. The God-man is known as Umyeongseongji (牛鳴聖地), the “Holy Land of the Ox’s Cry,” and Useongjae (牛聖在), the “Presence of the Ox Saint,” signifying his arrival as an ox. Buddhist temples often depict ten oxen surrounding the main hall, representing the “Ten Ox Herding Pictures” (Sipudo 十牛圖), which symbolize the search for the ox. The arrival of the ox signifies the end of Buddhism. The paintings in the temple exist only until the ox is found.

The “ox’s cry” heard at the Sky Temple, though it may sound like a dragon’s roar, is indeed the cry of the ox. This is the sipseungji, where the miraculous sweet water flows, unlike Jerusalem. Those who reject the God-man will not prevail, as he will ultimately establish the City of Bitterness Ending and Sweetness Coming. The sweet water has already arrived, flowing abundantly, unlike the scarcity of water in Jerusalem.

The Sky Temple is a place of prophecy, and the God-man’s presence is undeniable.

  • As people age, they gradually approach the “earth” that will cover them, signifying the eventual separation of mind and soul .

• The Nature of Mind and Spirit

  • The mind is described as “yin and yang” (음양) and “energy” (기운), which arises from temperature differences, similar to how wind forms .
  • The human body is influenced by these energies, causing various physical sensations .
  • Understanding the principles of nature (원형이정) from an early age can change one’s perspective on the world .
  • Knowledge gained from the speaker, even if not immediately remembered, influences the body and can manifest in unexpected situations .

• The “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” in Korea

  • The lecture’s main topic is “Why is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea?” .
  • The speaker introduced a hierarchy of “wares”: hardware, software, mindware, spiritware, and Heaven (God) ware .
  • Hardware represents the lowest stage of the mental world .
  • Software involves inputting human language into AI, primarily through numbers .
  • Numbers are considered the most honest and unchanging aspect of the world, unlike words or human experiences .
  • The speaker illustrated this with the example of a candle, explaining how to make it burn longer by preventing wax from flowing down .
  • AI operates by converting all information into numerical, digital data .
  • Mindware is beyond numbers and current scientific understanding .
  • Spiritware is spiritual awareness .
  • Heavenware (Godware) is the highest level, where the speaker operates, while human minds typically function at the hardware and software levels .
  • The upcoming year, Eulsa-nyeon (乙巳年), is the year of the “Blue Snake” (청사년), with “Eulsa” being a symbol and “Blue Snake” being its meaning .
  • The speaker humorously noted that explaining these complex concepts to a “hardware” audience (likened to “stone heads”) is challenging but enjoyable .
  • The advantages of fewer people at the Heavenly Palace include more space and better treatment .

• Geographical and Historical Significance

  • The speaker compared the elevation of the Heavenly Palace (400m above sea level) to Jerusalem (900-1000m above sea level), noting that both are on high ground, giving them a “fortress-like” feel .
  • Korean houses built on elevated platforms (축대) convey authority, unlike those on flat ground .
  • The story of Kim Gyo-gak (金喬閣), a Korean monk who became the revered “Jijang Bosal” (地藏菩薩) in China, was shared .
  • Jijang Bosal’s name (地藏, “earth hidden”) comes from his act of burying himself in the ground out of shame after giving away all his clothes to the poor .
  • Kim Gyo-gak’s body did not decompose after death, leading to the creation of “Deungsinbul” (等身佛, life-sized Buddha statues) .
  • He was said to have been reborn 16 times, with 16 Deungsinbul at China’s Guhwasa Temple (九華寺), which attracts millions of tourists .
  • This demonstrates the excellence of the Korean people, from whom “Heavenware” originates .

• Prophecies and Religious Comparisons

  • Sakyamuni Buddha prophesied the coming of Jesus (야소), stating that his own teachings would become like a “lamp without oil” (吾道無由之燈也) when Jesus returns to the Korean Peninsula .
  • The speaker contrasted the “Eight Jewels of Buddhism” (정각, 열반, 해탈, 보리, 반야, 삼매, 무아, 성불) with the “Eight Blessings of Christianity” (기도, 구원, 축복, 성령, 은사, 부활, 영생, 천국) .
  • The speaker demonstrated that Buddhist concepts like “Nirvana” (극락) lack spiritual power compared to Christian concepts like “Heaven” (천국) .
  • “Nirvana” is a state of mind within the human world, while “Heaven” is a separate realm .
  • The speaker asserted that he reveals the truth, exposing the “fake” religions that have misled many .
  • He likened religious leaders to captains abandoning a sinking ship (humanity) in a storm, while he (Jesus) returns with a large spaceship to rescue everyone with “ten million ropes” .

• Overcoming Suffering and Commandments

  • The “sea of suffering” is caused by “greed, anger, and ignorance” (탐진치), also known as the “three poisons” (삼독) or “three evils” (삼악) .
  • Overcoming suffering requires letting go of greed .
  • Sakyamuni’s solution to “greed, anger, and ignorance” was “precepts, meditation, and wisdom” (계정혜), which are the “three studies” (삼학) .
  • The speaker compared the Ten Commandments of Christianity with the Ten Precepts of Buddhism .
  • He highlighted the difference between the Old Testament’s strict punishments (e.g., “an eye for an eye”) and Jesus’s teachings of forgiveness and love in the New Testament .
  • The speaker explained that his first coming (as Jesus) was a period of “thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings” (천신만고), leading to his death on the cross .
  • His second coming (재림) is the era of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes” (고진감래), where suffering ends and sweetness arrives .
  • The character for “sweetness” (甘) resembles a cow’s head, symbolizing his return as a “cow” (기축생) .
  • The Heavenly Palace is the “New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace” (새 예루살렘성), where “sweet water” (단물) flows, unlike the “bitter water” (쓴물) of the old Jerusalem .
  • The old Jerusalem is still a “city of thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings” (천신만고성), marked by conflict and a “wailing wall” (통곡의 벽), whereas the Heavenly Palace is a place of joy and “joyful spring water” (즐거운 광천수) .
  • The speaker emphasized that the New Testament’s teachings are “more frightening” than Moses’s law because they judge even thoughts, not just actions, though they offer forgiveness for actions .
  • However, his current coming involves stricter judgment, where only the “good” are saved, and the “bad” face judgment .

• Feng Shui and the Heavenly Palace

  • The speaker discussed the unfavorable feng shui of China, with its blocked access to the ocean, leading to poverty and communism .
  • Korea, with its three-sided access to the ocean, has superior feng shui, contributing to its shipbuilding industry .
  • The United States has excellent feng shui due to its vast ocean territories .
  • The speaker explained that he chose Korea because it is the “central earth” (중앙토), where the soil is rich and fertile, unlike other places .
  • The Heavenly Palace is a “land of ten victories” (십승지), a propitious place with abundant spring water, unlike Israel’s arid land .
  • The Heavenly Palace’s location, Goryeongsan (高靈山), possesses four auspicious feng shui forms: “Ten Thousand Generals Leading” (만장통솔형), “Heavenly God Seated” (천신단좌형), “Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven” (비룡승천형), and “Peony Blooming in Full” (목단만개형) .
  • Gae-myeongsan (開明山) has three forms: “Dragon Playing with a Pearl” (용주희롱형), “Phoenix Embracing Eggs” (봉황포란형), and “Heavenly Gold Emerging from a Turtle” (천금출구형) .
  • The lecture hall itself has three forms: “Golden Rooster Embracing Eggs” (금계포란형), “Emperor Emerging with a Pipa” (비슬제출형), and “Ten Perfect Daoist Forms” (십전도가형) .
  • These “ten victories” prove that the Heavenly Palace is the New Jerusalem .

• The Nature of the Divine and Human Responsibility

  • The speaker emphasized that his coming is the “bitterness ends, sweetness comes” (고진감래) era, while the old Jerusalem remains the “thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings” (천신만고) era .
  • The difference between the Old and New Testaments lies in the reversal of commandments 6, 7, and 8 (murder, adultery, theft) .
  • The speaker’s teachings are “more frightening” than Moses’s because they condemn even thoughts, though they offer forgiveness for actions .
  • His current coming involves stricter judgment, where only the “good” are saved, and the “bad” face judgment .

The New Jerusalem and the Sky Temple: A Divine Proclamation

1. The Terrestrial Realm and the Celestial Mandate
   This final Saturday lecture of the year addresses the profound question: Why is the New Jerusalem, the sacred city, located in Korea’s Sky Temple? The God-man has descended to this Earth from the heavens to resolve global afflictions such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, and to guide ten million souls to the White Palace Heaven. Those who have received the God-man’s blessings and the Holy Spirit must approach the coming new year with unwavering confidence and renewed vigor.

Today’s floral offerings are noteworthy. From Seogwipo, Jeju Island, Archangel Yang Jeong-suk presents white orchids, symbolizing purity, to commemorate the God-man’s advent. Archangels Park Hyun-suk and Lee Soo-yeon from Cheonan offer a beautiful basket predominantly filled with yellow flowers, expressing their gratitude. Finally, Archangel Lee Yoo-seok, representing the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, presents a yellow orchid pot, also in celebration of the God-man’s advent.

The color yellow, representing the central earth element, is intrinsically linked to Saturday. The Korean Peninsula, as the central earth, is thus associated with this hue. While China is symbolized by white, America by blue, Russia by black, and Jeju Island by red, the Korean Peninsula, though known as the “white-clad people,” fundamentally embodies the central earth’s yellow. This earth element, “to” in the cycle of fire, water, wood, metal, and earth, fosters harmony and prevents conflict. Without earth, the elements would be in opposition.

All things, regardless of their brilliance, ultimately return to the earth to transform into new substances. A tree’s leaves, whether red, blue, or green, revert to the soil before re-emerging in different forms. This intricate principle is encapsulated in the concept of Won-Hyeong-I-Jeong (Originality, Flourishing, Righteousness, and Constancy), which signifies the return to the primordial origin, akin to the cycle of seasons. Rebirth necessitates a return to the earth.

Individuals who experience business failure often return to their hometowns, visiting the graves of their parents. This act symbolizes a return to the fundamental earth element. As one ages, the earth draws nearer, and the specific soil destined to cover one’s body approaches. The mind, which merely nourishes the soul, operates on the principle of yin and yang, generating vital energy. Just as temperature differences create wind, the body’s internal energies fluctuate, causing various sensations. This natural principle of Won-Hyeong-I-Jeong should be comprehended from an early age, as it profoundly alters one’s perception of the world.

Even if immediate recall is not possible, the teachings absorbed from the God-man permeate the subconscious, influencing the body without conscious awareness. For instance, one might spontaneously utter “Enter the light-body” in a critical situation, having subconsciously absorbed the phrase. The human body is merely a shadow, a transient form. It is a reflection of the sun, a mere shadow. Therefore, our existence should be regarded with profound wonder.

2. Hierarchies of Existence: From Hardware to Heavenware
   The world, as commonly perceived, is akin to hardware, representing the lowest stratum of the spiritual realm. Beyond hardware lies software, a slightly more advanced stage. Subsequently, there is mindware, a domain that current science has yet to fully comprehend. While machines can respond to human thoughts and voices through AI, this is achieved by integrating software. The triumph of AI over human players in games like Go exemplifies this, where human language is input into the AI.

The only unchanging and trustworthy entity in this world is numbers. Numbers, from one to nine, never deceive. Unlike deceptive voice phishing, numbers remain honest. Consequently, many religious figures, such as priests and nuns, are drawn to numbers due to their inherent honesty. While everything else in the world undergoes change—youth fades, and the elderly pass away—numbers remain constant. Bank account balances, for instance, are never fraudulently altered by numbers.

Conversely, words can be deceptive. The meaning of a sentence can be altered by misinterpreting word boundaries, as in the example “Father’s bag enters” versus “Father enters the room.” Words are subject to interpretation, intonation, and emphasis, unlike the immutable nature of numbers. Thus, religious figures, while questioning all else, find certainty in numbers. The coming year, Eulsa-nyeon (Year of the Blue Snake), will not deceive; the sixty-year cycle of the ganji (Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches) unfolds precisely. Time, in its relentless progression, propels us towards our ultimate destination. Each second inexorably draws us closer to the grave.

My childhood studies, often conducted by candlelight, taught me about the finite nature of a candle’s life. I discovered that by wrapping a candle in newspaper, the molten wax would not drip away, thus preventing the wick from burning down prematurely. This simple technique extended the candle’s life by approximately twentyfold, conserving resources and ensuring a continuous flame even in windy conditions. The soot from these candles often blackened my nostrils, a testament to my diligent studies.

Such extensive knowledge can be incorporated into software. AI, for instance, processes information numerically, not through typed words. All data is digitized and input as numbers. Our resident registration numbers, for example, identify us not by facial recognition or fingerprints, but by a unique barcode. Similarly, all human language is converted into numerical data for AI processing. Self-driving cars, for instance, operate based on numerical inputs, interpreting objects as specific numerical codes that trigger corresponding actions. The human brain also processes information in a similar numerical fashion.

Beyond mindware lies spiritware, and ultimately, Heavenware or Godware. The God-man operates within the realm of Heavenware, while human intellect typically extends only to hardware and software. Each successive stage represents a profound leap in understanding.

The upcoming year, Eulsa-nyeon, is the Year of the Blue Snake. The term Eulsa is a symbolic representation, with Eul denoting a bird and Sa representing the snake. These are not literal meanings but rather symbols within the ganji system. The actual meaning, “Blue Snake,” is what we truly comprehend. Inputting such complex symbolic representations into AI presents a challenge, as it requires distinguishing between symbolic characters and their inherent meanings.

Explaining these concepts to a general audience necessitates a simplified approach. While a Harvard professor might directly address peers, the God-man, possessing Heavenware, must communicate with those operating at the hardware level, which is akin to a “stone brain.” Despite the challenge, there is a certain enjoyment in this process.

The advantages of fewer attendees at the Sky Temple are evident: ample seating and personalized attention. A shop with few customers treats each one like royalty, whereas a crowded establishment often leads to exasperation. This inability to grasp simple analogies is characteristic of the “hardware” mindset.

Living with a “hardware” woman would be effortless, but cohabiting with a woman of sharp intellect would be unbearable. The God-man’s teachings delve into the intricacies of the ganji system, where Eul resembles a bird.

3. The New Jerusalem: A Korean Revelation
   The question of why the New Jerusalem is located in Korea’s Sky Temple is paramount. The Sky Temple itself resembles a fortress, negating the need for physical walls. The distance between Jerusalem and Jericho is approximately 30 kilometers, comparable to the distance from here to Gangnam in Seoul. Jerusalem stands at an elevation of 900 to 1000 meters above sea level, while Jericho is 200 meters below sea level, a significant difference of 1000 meters. The Sky Temple, situated at an elevation of 400 meters, also occupies a high-altitude terrain.

Historically, fortresses were built on elevated ground to convey authority. The Forbidden City in China, built on flat land, lacks the imposing presence of a true fortress. Similarly, the ancient city of Hanseong (Seoul) was built on flat ground, diminishing its fortress-like quality. Grand houses in the countryside, particularly in Gyeongsang Province, were often built on high stone foundations, signifying their prestige. Royal palaces also featured such elevated platforms.

A remarkable Korean figure, Kim Gyo-gak, became a revered Bodhisattva in China, known as Jijang Bosal (Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva). His name, Jijang, means “earth” and “conceal.” Kim Gyo-gak, a towering figure of two meters with unusually large feet, captivated the Chinese monks and local populace with his exemplary conduct. He became so revered that he was deified, becoming the actual Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in China. His imposing stature, twice that of ordinary monks, made him stand out, commanding respect and ultimately dominating the spiritual landscape of China.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is renowned for his boundless generosity. He would give away all his possessions, even his clothes, to the poor. Eventually, to conceal his nakedness, he would bury himself in the earth, leaving only his head exposed. This act of self-concealment for the benefit of others earned him the name Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Inputting such profound narratives into AI software presents a significant challenge.

The extraordinary influence of Koreans is evident in Kim Gyo-gak’s deification in China, attracting ten million tourists annually. Before his passing, he requested that his body be preserved for three months. If it did not decompose, he wished to be enshrined as a deungsinbul (a mummified, gilded Buddha statue), rather than being buried or cremated. He became a deungsinbul, and sixteen such statues exist at Guhwasa Temple in China, signifying his repeated reincarnations. He would return, die, and be preserved again, until the sixteenth incarnation, after which he departed from the earthly realm. Guhwasa Temple, known for its numerous deungsinbul, attracts a vast number of tourists.

The Korean people possess an unparalleled excellence, evident in their ability to achieve spiritual eminence globally. It is from this nation that the Heavenware descends. Kim Gyo-gak, like the Dalai Lama, underwent sixteen reincarnations before departing permanently.

Sakyamuni Buddha prophesied the coming of Jesus, stating, “When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil.” This refers to the Second Coming of Jesus to the Korean Peninsula. Sakyamuni’s teachings, encompassing the eight jewels of Buddhism—enlightenment, nirvana, liberation, bodhi, prajna, samadhi, non-self, and Buddhahood—are unattainable by humans. These concepts, when tested, lack spiritual power.

Conversely, the eight tenets of Christianity—prayer, salvation, blessing, Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, resurrection, eternal life, and heaven—demonstrate immense power. While Buddhism speaks of Geukrak (Pure Land), it is distinct from Heaven. Geukrak exists within the human mind, a state of inner peace, whereas Heaven is a separate, celestial realm. The thirty-three heavens of Buddhism are also mental constructs, not external realities. Buddhism, therefore, is a philosophy focused on controlling the mind, not a theology connected to an external divine realm.

The God-man’s arrival reveals the distinction between Geukrak and Heaven, exposing the former as an illusion. Before the God-man’s advent, false doctrines proliferated, leading countless individuals astray. Humanity, adrift in the sea of religion, must grasp the life raft offered by the God-man. Religious institutions, like a sinking ship, have abandoned their passengers, leaving them to perish. The “saints” have fled, leaving eighty billion souls to drift.

However, the God-man, like a colossal flying saucer, appears, extending millions of ropes to rescue humanity. Ten million individuals who receive the blessing and the nameplate will be saved, even without direct contact. This is a unique privilege.

The sea of suffering, characterized by the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance (tam-jin-chi), leads to the three evil paths. These mental afflictions are the root of all suffering. Overcoming them requires relinquishing greed. For instance, if one’s house faces foreclosure, instead of succumbing to conflict, one should embrace humility and seek a simpler life. A tent in a national park, for example, can provide shelter and an opportunity for a new beginning. When confronted by officials, a humble plea for understanding can evoke compassion. Humility eliminates the problem of sustenance; pride leads to hell.

Sakyamuni, a philosopher, taught how to control the mind, while the God-man reveals the realm of the spirit. Sakyamuni’s teachings, though not incorrect, lack the vital energy of the divine. The God-man guides humanity. The three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance are remedied by the three trainings of morality, concentration, and wisdom (gye-jeong-hye).

The Ten Commandments of Christianity, including prohibitions against coveting, lying, stealing, adultery, murder, and disrespecting parents, are distinct from the Buddhist precepts. The Old Testament prescribed severe punishments for these transgressions, such as death by stoning for adultery or amputation for theft. However, the God-man, as Jesus, advocated forgiveness and mercy. When confronted with an adulterous woman, Jesus challenged those without sin to cast the first stone, emphasizing that all are sinners. This marked a departure from the Mosaic law, which demanded retribution.

The God-man’s crucifixion was not due to defiance against Roman authority but rather the machinations of the Jewish religious leaders, who, entrenched in their dogmatism, perceived him as a threat to their established order. They, like contemporary religious leaders, prioritize their own institutions over the true divine message.

The God-man has endured a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (cheon-sin-man-go), experiencing countless bitter and pungent flavors. This period of intense suffering culminated in his death on the cross. However, his Second Coming signifies the era of go-jin-gam-rae (bitterness ends, sweetness comes). The bitterness has concluded, and the sweetness, symbolized by the character for “sweet” (甘), which resembles an ox, is now manifest in the Sky Temple. This signifies the arrival of the ox-born one, as prophesied.

The Sky Temple is the New Jerusalem, where miraculous sweet spring water flows abundantly, unlike the scarcity of water in the old Jerusalem. Children, accustomed to the bitter taste of ordinary water, eagerly drink the sweet water from the Sky Temple. The era of bitter water has ended. The old Jerusalem represents the cheon-sin-man-go (thousand hardships, ten thousand sufferings) era, while the Sky Temple embodies the go-jin-gam-rae (bitterness ends, sweetness comes) era.

The old Jerusalem remains a place of cheon-sin-man-go, plagued by conflict among its three religious sites and characterized by the Wailing Wall, a symbol of perpetual sorrow. The Sky Temple, conversely, is a place of joy and celebration, where the sweet spring water flows. The descendants of those who crucified the God-man are destined to weep eternally at the Wailing Wall. However, those at the Sky Temple sing and rejoice. Religious and political leaders must heed the God-man’s words.

The three trainings (gye-jeong-hye) are the remedy for the three poisons. The Buddhist precepts, encompassing prohibitions against killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, false speech, divisive speech, harsh speech, and the three poisons, are distinct from the Christian Ten Commandments. The Old Testament’s “an eye for an eye” principle contrasts sharply with the God-man’s teachings of forgiveness and love. This shift from retribution to compassion led to his persecution by the Jewish people, who viewed him as a blasphemer of Mosaic law.

The current era is one of enlightenment and go-jin-gam-rae. The Sky Temple’s auspicious feng shui (geomancy) surpasses even that of Guhwasa Temple. China’s geographical configuration, with its limited access to the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, is considered geomantically unfavorable, contributing to its poverty and the necessity of communism. The Korean Peninsula, with its three-sided access to the sea, has historically excelled in shipbuilding, unlike China, which faces numerous maritime obstacles. The United States, with its vast oceanic territories, is a global superpower, possessing immense wealth.

The northern regions of China are characterized by deserts, a geomantically inauspicious feature, as the north should be associated with water. The United States, with its abundant water resources in the north, enjoys superior feng shui. However, the God-man chose not to go there because it lacks the central earth element. Korean soil, rich and fertile, yields abundant harvests. Therefore, the God-man, as Jesus, comes to the Korean Peninsula, to the Sky Temple.

The Sky Temple is a sipseungji (ten auspicious sites), a land of unparalleled fortune, unlike the barren lands of Israel, which lack water. The Sky Temple is a true auspicious site, where spring water gushes forth. It is a place where ten thousand generals are commanded (man-jang-tong-sol-hyeong), signifying a place of global unification. It is also a place where the celestial deity is seated (cheon-sin-dan-jwa-hyeong), where a soaring dragon ascends to heaven (bi-ryong-seung-cheon-hyeong), and where peonies bloom in profusion (mok-dan-man-gae-hyeong). These four characteristics define Goryeongsan, the sacred mountain of the Sky Temple.

Furthermore, Gaemyeongsan, another sacred mountain, is characterized by a dragon playing with a wish-fulfilling jewel (yong-ju-hui-rong-hyeong), a phoenix embracing its eggs (bong-hwang-po-ran-hyeong), and a celestial golden turtle emerging (cheon-geum-chul-gu-hyeong). The lecture hall itself embodies the form of a golden rooster embracing its eggs (geum-gye-po-ran-hyeong), the emergence of an emperor (bi-seul-je-chul-hyeong), and the path of the ten complete doctrines (sip-jeon-do-ga-hyeong), signifying the arrival of a heavenly emperor who speaks the truth. These ten auspicious sites are irrefutable evidence that the Sky Temple is the New Jerusalem.

The old Jerusalem is the cheon-sin-man-go-seong (city of a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings), a place of perpetual tears and anguish. The Sky Temple, conversely, is the go-jin-gam-rae-seong (city where bitterness ends and sweetness comes), where the ox-like sweetness has arrived, and water flows abundantly. The difference between the Old and New Testaments lies in the reversal of the sixth, seventh, and eighth commandments. The Old Testament, representing Judaism, advocated “an eye for an eye,” while the New Testament, representing Christianity, emphasized forgiveness and love.

While Moses’ laws appear more severe on the surface, the God-man’s teachings are ultimately more profound. Moses’ laws addressed outward actions, whereas the God-man’s teachings extend to the intentions of the heart. Coveting another’s property, for instance, is considered theft in the God-man’s view, even if no physical act is committed. Therefore, the New Testament is more formidable. It embodies a parental love that, while forgiving, also admonishes wrongdoing. The Old Testament, lacking this element of love, is incomplete. The scope of sin is broader under the God-man’s dispensation, yet the punishment is lighter. However, in the current era, the punishment is strict. Only the righteous will be saved, while the wicked will face judgment.

The Earth will undergo immense suffering, eventually entering another ice age. It is during this period that the God-man arrives. The sweetness of go-jin-gam-rae is brought by the ox, as prophesied. The God-man’s arrival as an ox is widely known in the East. Buddhist temples, for instance, feature the “Ten Ox Herding Pictures” (sim-u-do), symbolizing the search for the ox. The arrival of the ox signifies the end of Buddhism, as the temple’s purpose is fulfilled once the ox is found. The sound of the ox’s cry emanates from the Sky Temple, a u-myeong-ji (place where the ox cries), one of the ten auspicious sites where spring water gushes forth.

The God-man’s teachings are not found in schools; they are prophecies. His forty years of lectures contain an immense body of knowledge. His presence on Earth is undeniable. Just as the first electric light in his village, a mere 30-volt current, caused a jolt, a 300-million-volt current would instantly disintegrate the body. The human heart, powered by electrical signals from the White Palace, would cease to function if that switch were turned off.

Paul, on his way to persecute Jesus’ disciples, was struck by a blinding light, a current of hundreds of millions of volts, which rendered him blind for three days. This divine light, though powerful enough to blind, is tempered by the God-man to allow humanity to perceive him without harm. He speaks through his mouth, mind, and heart, healing and guiding without overwhelming. Paul, however, experienced the full force of this light, leading to his conversion and his pivotal role in spreading Christianity.

The principle of cha-saeng-go-pi-saeng (this arises, therefore that arises) signifies that nothing exists without a cause or connection. The God-man’s presence here is not without reason.

One must abandon the principle of ja-ri-ta-hae (self-benefit, harm to others) and embrace ja-ri-i-ta (self-benefit, benefit to others). While ja-hae-ta-ri (self-harm, benefit to others), the path of a Bodhisattva, is difficult for most, it is exemplified by figures like Kim Gyo-gak, who sacrificed himself for the welfare of others. Missionaries who dedicate their lives to serving others, even at the cost of their own families, embody this spirit of self-sacrifice.

A letter written to the God-man, expressing profound gratitude for the gift of life, health, and the opportunity to ascend to the White Palace Heaven, exemplifies the attitude that elevates one’s spiritual level. Such gratitude for every aspect of existence is paramount.

. The Significance of Earth in the Cosmic Order

This year’s final Saturday lecture is dedicated to all attendees and viewers, both domestic and international, who have diligently participated throughout the year. The God-man descended to Earth from the heavens to resolve global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, and to guide ten million souls to the White Palace Heaven. Empowered by the God-man’s blessings and the Holy Spirit, we must approach the coming new year with confidence and renewed vigor. Today, we will attentively listen to the 1472nd Saturday lecture by the great God-man, Huh Kyung-young.

Today, three teams have presented flowers. From Seogwipo, Jeju Island, Archangel Yang Jung-suk offers white orchids to commemorate the God-man’s incarnation. These pure white orchids are truly beautiful to behold. Following this, Archangels Park Hyun-suk and Lee Soo-yeon from Cheonan present a beautiful basket of predominantly yellow flowers, expressing their gratitude to the God-man. Lastly, Archangel Lee Yoo-seok, representing the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, offers a yellow orchid pot to celebrate the God-man’s incarnation. We extend our wishes for the Tokyo Spiritual Center’s boundless development. Now, let us all listen to the God-man’s precious words of providence.

It is a pleasure to see you all. The sound of my name being called has become quite subdued. Today, all three flower offerings were yellow, except for the white orchids from Seogwipo. Saturday is associated with the color yellow, or 황 (Hwang) in Korean. The Korean Peninsula is considered the central earth, hence its association with yellow. China, to the west, is represented by white; America, by blue; Russia, by black; and Jeju Island, to the south, by red. Although Koreans are known as the “white-clad people,” our true color, in the context of the five elements (fire, water, wood, metal, earth), is yellow, representing the central earth. Earth plays a crucial role in maintaining harmony, as its absence would lead to conflict among the elements.

Regardless of how vibrant water or other elements may be, everything eventually returns to earth to transform into new substances. Just as tree leaves, whether red, blue, or green, return to the soil before new colors emerge, all things must pass through the earth for regeneration. This is a profound principle, encapsulated in the concept of 원형이정 (Wonhyeongijeong), which signifies the cyclical return to the original state, much like the four seasons. Therefore, returning to earth is essential for rebirth.

This is why individuals who experience business failures often return to their hometowns to visit their parents’ graves. This act symbolizes a return to the fundamental essence of earth. As people age, they draw closer to the earth, and the specific earth that will eventually cover them is predetermined. The earth is gradually approaching each of us, and a time will come when our minds and souls will separate.

The mind merely nourishes the soul; it operates on the principle of yin and yang. The mind is energy, and energy arises from the interplay of yin and yang. For instance, when one area is cold and another is warm, wind begins to blow, signifying the activation of energy. Our bodies function similarly, with energy constantly flowing within them. This explains why we sometimes feel a strong wind or experience aches and pains, as these sensations are influenced by energy. The principles of nature, such as Wonhyeongijeong, should ideally be understood from elementary school. Such an understanding would profoundly alter our perception of the world. Therefore, having listened extensively to the God-man’s discourses and watched numerous YouTube videos is truly significant.

Even if you do not immediately recall everything, it is all stored in your mind and subtly influencing your body. For example, you might not consciously remember the phrase “enter the light,” but in a critical situation, it could spontaneously emerge from your lips, potentially saving a life. This is because you have heard it before. We are like 화신여일영 (Hwasinyeoilyeong), meaning our bodies are merely shadows. Our bodies are physical forms, but they are essentially shadows. They are like the shadow of the sun, or simply a single shadow. Therefore, we should view our existence as truly miraculous.

2. The Hierarchy of Existence: From Hardware to Heavenware
   The topic for today is: Why is the New Jerusalem in Korea’s Sky Temple? What you refer to as the world is essentially hardware, representing the lowest stage of the spiritual realm. Science also progresses through stages. Beyond hardware, there is software, which is a slightly higher stage. Then comes mindware. Has science reached mindware yet? Not entirely. While machines can respond to our thoughts and voices, this is achieved through software, such as AI. For example, AI defeated Go master Cho Chi-hun. This AI is programmed with human language.

The most unchanging and honest thing in this world, the only thing we can truly trust, is numbers. Do numbers deceive us? No, numbers are absolutely incorruptible. They do not change or mislead us. While voice phishing may deceive us, numbers do not. They are honest. This is why many religious figures are drawn to numbers, as they represent truthfulness. Priests and nuns, for instance, appreciate numbers because they do not lie, unlike everything else that constantly changes. Have you ever seen numbers change? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten—they do not deceive us. But everything else transforms. Young people age, and old people die. Everything changes, but numbers remain constant. Have they ever lied? No. Does the balance in your bank account suddenly change? No, numbers do not lie.

However, words can deceive us. For example, “Father goes into the bag” can be misinterpreted. It should be “Father goes into the room.” Words can mislead us depending on how they are spoken or emphasized. But numbers cannot deceive. This is why religious figures, who question everything else in the world, do not question numbers. For instance, next year is the Year of Eulsa. Does the Year of Eulsa deceive us? No, the 60-year cycle of the sexagenary cycle unfolds precisely as it should. Therefore, we are inexorably moving towards our end. Our age does not deceive us. You cannot pretend to be 20 when you are 50. Each second, we are moving closer to the grave. It is like a candle burning down. The candle will eventually burn out. I extensively researched how to make a candle last longer. If you wrap a candle in newspaper, the wax does not drip, and the wick does not burn down as quickly. The wax remains pooled, keeping the wick constantly saturated. This allows the candle to burn for a much longer time, perhaps 20 times longer. This also prevents the flame from being extinguished by the wind.

When I studied in the mountains as a child, candles were essential for studying, but the wind often extinguished them in the tent. So, I would wrap the candle in newspaper, securing it with a rubber band. The newspaper would not catch fire, and the wax would remain pooled, preventing the wick from burning down quickly. This made the candle last much longer, saving money. Moreover, the flame would not be extinguished by the wind. When I later looked in the mirror in a city classroom, my nose was black from the candle soot. Other children did not have this, because I had studied by candlelight, inhaling the soot. I studied extensively by candlelight in my youth.

Such vast knowledge can be stored in software. AI, for instance, is entirely based on numbers. All knowledge is digitized and inputted as numbers, not as typed text. Everything is essentially numbers. AI is a system where all information on Earth is digitized and stored. Your resident registration number is also a number, which identifies you. It is not your face or fingerprints that identify you, but your barcode, which instantly reveals information about an item.

Therefore, all language is converted into numbers and inputted into computers to create AI, or artificial intelligence. This is the second stage, software. Numbers do not lie. So, would an autonomous vehicle, an AI-driven car, deceive us? No, it operates based on inputted numbers. When it detects an object, it identifies it as “number 3” and acts accordingly. Even the information entering the human brain is digitized. You should keep this in mind.

Beyond mindware, there is spiritware. And above that, there is Heavenware, or Godware. The God-man operates at the Heavenware level, while human minds typically function at the hardware and software levels. Each stage represents a significant leap.

3. The Symbolism of the Year of the Blue Snake and the Nature of Reality
   In a few days, we will enter the Year of Eulsa, which is the Year of the Snake. Eulsa (乙巳) literally means “blue snake” (靑蛇). So, next year is the Year of the Blue Snake. Eulsa is a symbol, a designation in the sexagenary cycle. The “Eul” (乙) and “Sa” (巳) are symbols, while “blue snake” is the actual meaning. When inputting this into AI, it becomes complex, as it needs to be determined whether to input it as a meaning or a sound. The character “Sa” (巳) in Eulsa is a symbol, not the actual character for “snake” (蛇). “Eul” (乙) refers to a bird. These are simply sequential designations in the heavenly stems and earthly branches. This is how it is inputted into AI. The actual meaning, “blue snake,” is what we understand.

Explaining such concepts requires a detailed approach. If I were speaking to Harvard professors, I would not need to simplify. However, I, who possess Heavenware, am speaking to those at the hardware level, which is like talking to a “stone head.” Despite the challenge, there is a certain enjoyment in it. What is the advantage of fewer people attending lectures at the Sky Temple? I am asking the hardware. What could be the advantage? More space. That is the simple answer. Hardware is slow to respond.

When fewer people come to the Sky Temple, there is more space, and the treatment is different. If there are too many people, you do not receive special treatment. If a shop has no customers for a week and then one person comes, that person is treated like royalty. But if a thousand people flock in a day, the shop owner becomes irritable, demanding order. “Please wait in line! I need to live too!” But if only one person comes in a week, the treatment is entirely different. Yet, when I ask this, the hardware does not answer. It is truly astonishing. That is what we call hardware. If the content changes slightly, they cannot understand. If the content deviates even a little, they cannot grasp it.

Living with such a “hardware” woman would be easy. But living with a woman who is clever is like choosing death. It is interesting. Our director, for example, would be kicked out in a day. It is amusing. When delving into the content, there are concepts like “Eulmok” and “Gapmok.” But “Eul” is just “Eul.” If you look closely, it resembles a bird. It is the character for “bird Eul.” It is quite interesting.

So, why has the New Jerusalem come to Korea’s Sky Temple? It resembles a fortress, but there is no need to build one. The distance from Jerusalem to Jericho is about 30 kilometers, which is roughly the distance from here to Gangnam in Seoul. Jerusalem is located at an altitude of 900 to 1000 meters above sea level, while Jericho is 200 meters below sea level. This is a significant difference of 1000 meters. So, Jerusalem is situated on high ground, just as this location is also elevated, at about 400 meters above sea level.

The terrain here gradually rises, with villages situated on higher ground. From here to downtown Seoul, the elevation decreases by about 15 kilometers. Jerusalem has a similar topography. It is difficult to attach the character “성” (seong), meaning “fortress” or “castle,” to a place like the Forbidden City in China, which is on flat ground. It sounds strange. However, places like Goguryeo’s Wanggeomseong or Namhansanseong and Bukhansanseong, which are on high ground, evoke the image of a true fortress. But what about Hanseong, the old name for Seoul? Hanseong is on flat ground.

It does not feel like a fortress. Although there are gates like Namdaemun and Seodaemun, it lacks the grandeur of entering a true fortress. A fortress should be on high ground, visible from afar, rising majestically. That is the essence of a fortress. If all fortresses were built on flat ground, they would merely be walls. Therefore, traditional Korean houses built on flat ground do not convey authority; they are simply family homes. However, grander structures, like pavilions or palaces, often have high stone foundations. In rural areas, large houses sometimes have foundations as tall as a person, called “chukdam.” Children often fall from these high foundations because there are no railings.

Why were they built this way? When you open the main gate, the house should appear elevated, conveying a sense of weight and importance. Wealthy families’ homes, especially in Gyeongsang Province, have high foundations. Even royal palaces have high foundations. However, smaller tiled-roof houses in Seoul lack these foundations and appear less authoritative.

4. The Legacy of Jizo Bodhisattva and the Spiritual Hierarchy
   There is a Korean who became a living Buddha in China, known as Jizo Bodhisattva. In China, Jizo Bodhisattva refers to Master Kim Gyo-gak. He was a monk who traveled from Korea to China. He became the most famous Jizo Bodhisattva in China. Why did he become Jizo Bodhisattva? “Jizo” means “earth” (地) and “conceal” (藏). So, Jizo Bodhisattva is Master Kim Gyo-gak. He was two meters tall, and his shoes were twice the size of ordinary shoes. He was a very tall man. When he arrived in China and asked to study with a Chinese monk, he was accepted. His conduct was so exemplary that all the monks were captivated by him.

He was incredibly kind to the local residents, who revered him. Eventually, he became a deity. In China, Jizo Bodhisattva is a real historical figure: Kim Gyo-gak. Because he was two meters tall, while most Chinese people were shorter, he stood out. People wondered, “Is he a human or a Buddha?” When he wore his monastic robes, his height gave him a commanding presence. Everyone looked up to him. He essentially captivated China.

Why is Jizo Bodhisattva called Jizo Bodhisattva? Those who practice Buddhism know. He gave away all his possessions to beggars, eventually even his clothes. When he had nothing left, and people kept coming, he dug a hole in the ground and hid his naked body, leaving only his head exposed. That is why he is called Jizo Bodhisattva, meaning “earth-concealed Bodhisattva.” He hid his body in the earth because he was ashamed after giving away all his clothes. He was a person who practiced immense generosity. We must understand this. How would you input such a story into AI, when creating software? It would be difficult. Therefore, creating software is very challenging. However, mindware cannot achieve this.

Koreans are truly remarkable; they can become deities in China. Millions of Chinese tourists visit his temple annually. When he passed away, he requested to be left in a small room for three months. If his body did not decompose, he asked to be made into a “等身佛” (deungsinbul), a life-sized Buddha statue, without being buried or cremated. He became a deungsinbul. Sixteen deungsinbul statues emerged from that temple, signifying that Master Kim Gyo-gak was reborn 16 times. It is astonishing. He did not just have one deungsinbul. He would pass away, predict his return, and then reappear. Each time, he would request to be left for three months, and his body would not decompose. Then, it would be gilded and preserved. The 16th deungsinbul was the last; it went elsewhere and did not return to Earth. This temple is called Jiuhua Temple (九華寺) in China.

Jiuhua Temple attracts an enormous number of tourists. You should be aware of such things. When I was in elementary and middle school, I researched this monk. The deungsinbul at Jiuhua Temple is Kim Gyo-gak. His title is Jizo Bodhisattva, not Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva. While we invoke Jizo Bodhisattva here, in China, Jizo Bodhisattva is a real person from the Silla Dynasty.

Koreans are an exceptional people, no matter where they go in the world. Therefore, Heavenware comes from our nation, the Korean Peninsula, a being who can freely manipulate mindware, spiritware, and Heavenware. Master Kim Gyo-gak, like the Dalai Lama, was reborn repeatedly, 16 times, before moving on. He no longer returns to Earth.

5. The Prophecy of Jesus’ Return and the Limitations of Traditional Religions
   Shakyamuni Buddha prophesied this. What did he say? He said that when Jesus comes, his own teachings would fade away. I explained this to you. He said, “何時耶蘇來 吾道無由之燈也” (Hasiyasorae Odomuyujideungya), meaning “When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil.” “Yaso” refers to Jesus. This prophecy speaks of the Second Coming of Jesus to the Korean Peninsula, this Eastern land. When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil.

Buddhism has eight treasures: enlightenment, nirvana, liberation, bodhi, prajna, samadhi, non-self, and Buddhahood. These are the essence of Buddhism. Achieving enlightenment through right view and the Eightfold Path is no ordinary feat. Nirvana is beyond words. Even after countless rebirths, attaining nirvana is difficult. Can one achieve liberation, bodhi, prajna, samadhi, non-self, or Buddhahood? These are beyond human reach.

When I came, did these Buddhist concepts have energy? No. Try to separate “enlightenment” from me. Does it fall? Yes. Nirvana, liberation, prajna, samadhi, non-self, Buddhahood—they all lack power. But what about the eight Christian concepts: prayer, salvation, blessing, Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, resurrection, eternal life, and heaven? Do they fall? No. In Buddhism, they call it “Sukhavati” or “Pure Land.” Does Sukhavati have power? No. Why does Sukhavati lack power? Anyone who equates Sukhavati with heaven is not in their right mind.

Sukhavati and heaven are entirely different. Sukhavati exists within the human mind, not in the spirit. It is an experience within the human mind. Heaven, on the other hand, is a separate realm, not within our minds. Sukhavati is not another world. Sukhavati is a world realized within our minds in this world. The 33 heavens are all worlds realized within our minds. Therefore, any claim of a separate 33 heavens is false. The Buddhist worldview is not a divine perspective; it is a philosophy that controls the human mind.

Buddhism is useful in psychology, but it has no connection to the external world. It has no relation to the heaven you are going to. I will show you proof. “Heaven, heaven.” Can you separate it? No. But “Sukhavati.” Is it the same word? No, it is the opposite. The power drains away. So, those who still seek to go to Sukhavati are mistaken. When I came, I revealed these truths to humanity. Anyone who claimed Sukhavati and heaven were different would have been called crazy. But when asked by heaven, there were no angels to ask. Only when the God-man comes is the truth revealed.

Before I came, falsehoods reigned supreme. When I came, it became clear that Sukhavati is false, and heaven is real. Is that not so? Therefore, ancient religions, from a primitive era, have led countless people astray. Now, in the sea of religion, you must grasp the passing life raft to survive. Trying to survive in the sea of religion by climbing onto something else is a path to death. You are floundering in the sea of religion, clinging to a plank, which is religion itself. You believe it will guide you to Sukhavati or heaven, but it is all a lie.

The sea of our suffering, the cause of suffering, is greed, anger, and ignorance (탐진치, tamjinchi). This is called the three poisons (삼독, samdok) or the three evils (삼악, samak). If you succumb to anger, you fall into the three evils. There are those who fall into the three evils and those who drink the three poisons. Which is better? Both lead to the same outcome. These are the three hells: greed, anger, and ignorance. All delusions arise from a greedy mind. If you let go of greed, all delusions disappear. Therefore, you must be able to overcome any suffering. How? By letting go of greed.

If your house is being foreclosed, and you and your spouse fight endlessly over it, it is pointless. Let go of greed. You can move into a small room and start anew. Greed is unnecessary. You will both eventually go into a coffin, so how important is a house? If you cannot find a room, you can pitch a tent on public land in the mountains, and no one will bother you. Is that not so? Only with such courage can you be happy. “Don’t worry, dear. If we don’t have a house, we can go camping, pitch a tent, make it warm with some cardboard, and hikers might give us money. We can protect the mountain, prevent forest fires. You can go down to get food, and I’ll guard the tent. Then I’ll go down, and you guard the tent.” Is that not good? If a district official asks why you pitched a tent, they will take out their wallet and give you money. “I have a terrible illness, was kicked out of the hospital, have no money, and nowhere to go. What would you do? I have to live here.” If you say this, the official will give you money for rice. Everyone is an angel. If you humble yourself, you will have no problem surviving. But if you cling to your pride, it is hell.

6. The Teachings of Shakyamuni and the God-man: Philosophy vs. Spiritual Guidance
   Shakyamuni Buddha taught how to control our minds; he was a philosopher. The God-man, however, speaks of the spiritual world and guides the spirit. Were Shakyamuni’s words wrong? No, they were not wrong, but they lacked fire, oil, and the energy of life. The God-man is the one who provides guidance. Shakyamuni’s cure for the disease of greed, anger, and ignorance was precepts, meditation, and wisdom (계정혜, gyejeonghye). Precepts, meditation, and wisdom are the medicine that cures greed, anger, and ignorance. These three are used to overcome the disease.

You need to understand precepts. All religions have precepts. Let’s look at the Christian Ten Commandments:
No other gods before me.
No idols.
Do not misuse the name of God.
Keep the Sabbath holy.
Honor your father and mother.
Do not murder.
Do not commit adultery.
Do not steal.
Do not lie.
Do not covet your neighbor’s house.

The seventh commandment, “Do not commit adultery,” applies to those with power. It does not apply to those without power. It is a good thing to be propositioned for adultery; it means you are young. This commandment also applies to certain ages, not to children. The sixth is “Do not murder,” and the fifth is “Honor your father and mother.”

Buddhism also has ten precepts. The Buddhist and Christian Ten Commandments are entirely different. I will explain them all. In Christianity, for thousands of years, the Old Testament prescribed death for murderers, stoning for adulterers, and cutting off hands for thieves. It was “an eye for an eye.” But when I came, I said, “Forgive murderers, save adulterers, and do not steal.” I advocated for forgiveness. When an adulterous woman was brought before me, and I was asked what I thought, I said, “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.” This meant, “You are all sinners, so who are you to stone this woman?” The Old Testament said to kill sinners, even if you were a sinner yourself.

This was the law of Moses. But when I came as Jesus, this law still governed Judea. I was crucified not because I challenged the Roman army; I never spoke to them. Roman soldiers simply passed by me. It was the Jewish religious leaders, like the religious leaders in Korea today, who were caught in mannerism, waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus, while being preoccupied with building their own kingdoms. They would say, “Anyone who touches our kingdom, beware!”

I did not challenge any military power. It was the existing religious figures, the religious establishment, who killed me. Pilate said, “This man has committed no crime worthy of death; I should release him.” But they cried, “No! Crucify him!” The Roman governor said, “I find no fault in this man; release him.” But the religious leaders, caught in mannerism, saw me, the one they were waiting for, and declared, “He is a heretic!” This is the problem. Am I challenging America and Russia now? America and Russia are like Rome in those days. I am not challenging them. But would it be right to say, “Kill him!” to America and Russia? No, that is absurd.

7. The Journey of Suffering and the Sweetness of the Sky Temple
   I have experienced a thousand kinds of bitterness and ten thousand kinds of suffering. I am one who has endured this. “千辛萬苦” (Cheonsinmangu) means a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings. I have experienced more than a thousand kinds of bitterness. After enduring countless hardships, what happened? The bitterness ended, and sweetness came. Is that not so? There are several flavors. There are three flavors: a thousand kinds of bitterness, suffering, and sweetness. When the bitterness eventually ends, does sweetness come? Does “苦盡甘來” (Gojingamrae), meaning “bitterness ends, sweetness comes,” arrive? It must.

But at that time, I died after enduring a thousand hardships. Did sweetness come? No, I was crucified. That was the era of a thousand hardships. My Second Coming is the era of Gojingamrae. The bitterness is now ending. The day will surely come when the bitterness ends. And then, will that person come? This “Gam” (甘), meaning “sweet,” is your Sky Temple. Does it not look like the Sky Temple? Look closely. This character “Gam” (甘) should be examined carefully. It looks like an ox. Yes, it does. There is an ox’s snout, is there not? The ox is coming. It means I will surely come as an ox born in the year of Gichuk. So, the ox will surely come. People should know this. This obvious Gojingamrae is my story, not yours. People do not understand the character “Gam” (甘) well. It is an ox. It says the ox is coming, so go to the place where the ox cries. This is it. The sound of the ox crying. Therefore, the New Jerusalem is built here. People think the Jerusalem over there is the real one. But this is the true Jerusalem.

Only here does the miraculous spring water flow. Does the Jerusalem over there have miraculous spring water? No. The water that flows here is sweet. It is “Gam,” meaning “sweet.” It is sweet water. The bitter water is gone now. When I first came, my first coming was to experience a thousand hardships. I endured a thousand kinds of bitterness and ten thousand kinds of suffering before I left. Now, I have returned, and the bitterness is gone, and sweetness is coming. This is called the New Jerusalem. The old Jerusalem was the city of a thousand hardships. Is there anyone in this world who knows this? I am teaching you today. You must understand that the God-man has come. If you cannot understand even after such a detailed explanation, what do you call that? Even with such an explanation, you are like “무부지자” (mubujija), meaning “one who does not know their father.” You were born of a mother, so have I taught you only one or two things? There are hundreds of things, like “언어도단” (eonododan), meaning “speech is cut off,” and “무부지자.” Our director, Lee Sang-suk, sings about these things all the time. Now you understand, right? There are not just one or two things, like mubujija. We have covered everything from “신언서판” (sineonseopan), meaning “body, speech, writing, judgment,” to “공전멸병” (gongjeonmyeolbyeong), meaning “eradication of all diseases.” We have gone through all these courses. Now, I am concluding.

Why is the New Jerusalem the city of Gojingamrae? This is the city of Gojingamrae. What was the old Jerusalem? It was the city of Cheonsinmangu. I escaped from the city of Cheonsinmangu. I died in the city of Cheonsinmangu. And I appear in the city of Gojingamrae. This is the New Jerusalem. Is that not right?

This city is still the city of Cheonsinmangu. There are three mosques inside, constantly fighting. It is still Cheonsinmangu. There is no Gojingamrae there. There is still war, and it is still a Wailing Wall. Is there a Wailing Wall or not? There is no laughing wall here. There is no wall of joy. At the Sky Temple, where the miraculous spring water flows, people dance and sing. Where is the Wailing Wall here? It is a joyful wall, is it not? Here, there is joyful miraculous spring water. The Wailing Wall should be there, not here. Cheonsinmangu is the Wailing Wall. The tears flow endlessly. Even their descendants must go there to wail. Why do their descendants wail?

Because they killed me. Would the descendants who killed me not wail? May those descendants wail there forever. But what about us? We sing “La la la.” Is there a difference or not? Therefore, current politicians and religious leaders must listen attentively to the words of the God-man. Precepts, meditation, and wisdom are the three studies (삼학, samhak), not the three evils. These three studies cure this disease. So, these are the precepts. Is that right? Killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct are sins committed by the body. Lying, divisive speech, harsh speech, and idle talk are sins committed by the mouth. Do not commit these sins. These are the Ten Commandments. Then, the eighth, ninth, and tenth are greed, anger, and ignorance. In Christianity, greed, anger, and ignorance are at the end. Here, these are greed, anger, and ignorance.

If you murder, you are killed. But I told the Jews to forgive. I died. I had no choice but to die. Is that not so? Those who commit adultery are stoned to death; that is Jewish law. But I said, “Save them.” So, I died then. Those who steal have their hands cut off. They actually cut them off. But I said, “Do not cut them off. Forgive them.” So, it was “a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye.” But I said, “Forgiveness for a tooth, love for an eye.” So, the Jews would not leave me alone. They would say, “That crazy man, kill him! He has blasphemed the law of Moses!” Is what I say right or not? Yes, it is right. Therefore, this era is a bright era, the era of Gojingamrae.

8. The Propitious Geography of the Sky Temple and the Arrival of the Ox
   I have also explained the auspicious geography. Is the auspicious geography of our Sky Temple not truly remarkable? The location of the deungsinbul at Jiuhua Mountain pales in comparison. China itself has inauspicious geography. This is China, and Korea is attached to it. This is China. This is the Korean sea. What is here? The Senkaku Islands. This is the sea of the Japanese Senkaku Islands. This is our sea. Then there is Taiwan, the Taiwan Strait. Here are the Philippines, the Philippine Sea. China is blocked by Indonesia and Malaysia.

So, China is enclosed. China is shaped like this, but its access to the Pacific Ocean is completely blocked. There is no Atlantic Ocean either. This is an inauspicious place geographically. That is why there are many poor people here. They cannot survive without communism. It is somewhat true, is it not? The sea route is blocked. The Korean Peninsula, South Korea, blocks it. North Korea blocks it. Is there any way to the sea? That is why their shipbuilding industry developed later than ours.

We are number one in global shipbuilding. Why? Because we are surrounded by the sea on three sides. We can freely go to the Pacific Ocean from Jeju Island. But for them, they have to pass through our waters to go to Russia, and their sea routes are too complicated. So, their maritime development has been stunted. Geographically, it is as if they have no sea. That is why China can never be a world leader. It is constrained by its geography.

But America has the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Caribbean Sea to the south. All its seas are open. Is that not right? So, America’s ships can go all the way to Hawaii, and all that sea belongs to them. And it is not just Hawaii. They own islands all over the Pacific Ocean. Why do they own islands? To control the sea. The area of their sea alone is 100 times that of China. Is that not incredible? If this is America, and it is shaped like this, then all this sea, all the way to Hawaii, belongs to them. And then there are places where many people go for honeymoons, like Guam, Saipan, and Fiji. All these seas belong to them. How vast is their sea? A country with such a vast sea is wealthy.

Having so much water means being a billionaire, a global conglomerate. But if a country has such limited water, no matter how large its landmass, it is not good. Moreover, the water here does not flow in; it all drains out into the East Sea. Is that not so? All the water drains out; there is no place for water to flow in. This is a desert. There should be water in the north, not a desert. This is wrong. The north is water. For them, the north is Alaska, above Canada, which is also their land. They have plenty of water in the north. Oh, the south, the auspicious geography is the best in the world. But why did I not go there?

Because it is not the central earth. If you dig up the soil there and then fill it back in, there is not enough soil. The land lacks vitality. Sweet potatoes grown there are 10 times larger than ours, but what is the use if they do not taste good? When you dig up our land, twice as much soil remains. How firm and solid our land is! Is that not so? This is the central earth. So, where does Jesus come? To the Korean Peninsula, to this Sky Temple. I have much more to say, but I have shown you why the New Jerusalem is the Sky Temple. But the Sky Temple also has the Ten Auspicious Sites. The fact that only the Sky Temple has the Ten Auspicious Sites is also important. Would Israel have Ten Auspicious Sites? It is a land where not even a single blade of grass grows. Is that not right? What kind of auspicious sites are there? No matter how good the land, there must be plenty of water. But Israel lacks water. It is not an auspicious place. A truly auspicious place has miraculous spring water gushing forth.

Therefore, this is a place where ten thousand generals are commanded. This is a place where ten thousand generals are commanded. It is a “萬將統率形” (Manjangtongsolhyeong), meaning “form of commanding ten thousand generals.” This is a place for unifying the world. Is that not right? And then, the heavenly deity comes and sits. It is a “天神壇座形” (Cheonsindanjwahyeong), meaning “form of a heavenly deity sitting on an altar.” These four forms are found on Goryeongsan Mountain. This is Goryeongsan, meaning “mountain of the highest spiritual power.” Is that not right? Is there such a place? Would any Korean geomancer come here and realize this? Then, what is next? It is a “飛龍昇天形” (Biryongseungcheonhyeong), meaning “form of a flying dragon ascending to heaven.” A dragon ascends to heaven from here. Then, there is the “牧丹萬開形” (Mokdanmangaeyeong), meaning “form of ten thousand peonies in full bloom.” Peonies are in full bloom. This is Goryeongsan Mountain.

Then, what is here? Gaemyeongsan Mountain. What does the dragon do? The dragon plays with the wish-fulfilling jewel. Is that not right? So, the dragon plays with the wish-fulfilling jewel. It is a “龍珠戲弄形” (Yongjuhironghyeong), meaning “form of a dragon playing with a jewel.” The second is a “鳳凰抱卵形” (Bonghwangporanhyeong), meaning “form of a phoenix embracing an egg.” And finally, there is a “天金出亀形” (Cheongeumchulgyehyeong), meaning “form of heavenly gold emerging from a turtle.” These three are here.

Then, what is the form of this lecture hall? It is the eighth, ninth, and tenth. The eighth is a “金鷄抱卵形” (Geumgyeporanhyeong), meaning “form of a golden rooster embracing an egg.” Then, there is a “琵瑟帝出形” (Biseuljechulhyeong), meaning “form of an emperor emerging with a pipa and geomungo.” It means the emperor comes forth. Is that right? The heavenly emperor comes forth with a pipa and geomungo. What I am speaking now is the pipa and geomungo. The words that come out are the pipa, and the words from the mouth are the geomungo. The tenth is a “十田道家形” (Sipjeondogahyeong), meaning “form of a Taoist master of the ten fields.” Jesus of Christianity came as yin and yang. The former is the Second Coming, and the latter is the old one. Is it not “Sipjeon”? That person teaches the truth. He establishes a lineage. That is Jerusalem. Is that not right? This is the evidence that this is Jerusalem. These are the Ten Auspicious Sites.

9. The Contrast Between Old Jerusalem and New Jerusalem
   What you must remember today is that the city of Gojingamrae is the Sky Temple, the New Jerusalem. The city of Cheonsinmangu is Jerusalem. So, what you have learned from me today is the conclusion. You must remember this. Just looking at this, you will remember the ox’s head. You will remember it, right? The city of Gojingamrae. No, the city of Cheonsinmangu comes first. It means experiencing a thousand kinds of bitterness and ten thousand kinds of suffering. I said it was the character for “bitter.” That city is Jerusalem. This is Jerusalem.

Even now, they are wailing, are they not? Because the bitterness and suffering continue, they shed tears. They continue to shed tears and suffer. Is that right? But here, the bitterness and suffering are now ending. What is this? It is an ox’s head. You can draw it like an ox. You understand, right? It is the character “Gam” (甘). Gojingamrae. The city of Gojingamrae is the Sky Temple. The Sky Temple is the New Jerusalem. This is what we studied today. You must not forget this. To explain this, I spoke of “Hasiyasorae Odomuyujideungya” and “Manjangtongsol.”

So, what is the difference between the Old and New Testaments? The commandments 6, 7, and 8 are reversed. These are what the Jews observe, and these are what Christians observe. Is that right? Evil for evil. Is that right? Evil for evil is Judaism. But there is one important thing you must know here. When it becomes like this, whose words are more frightening, Moses’s or mine? I say to forgive everything. Forgive murder, adultery, and theft. So, outwardly, Moses seems more frightening, does he not? But why is Moses not frightening, and why am I more frightening? Forgive, save, these are all good things, are they not? But there is a difference between Moses and me. The difference between the Jews and me.

The Jews say to murder, commit adultery, and steal, but only when it is visible. But I say that if you look at a woman with lust in your heart, it is adultery. Then you would have to die ten million times. Is that not so? Do not commit adultery in your heart. You understand, right? Forgive those who commit adultery, but even committing it in your heart is adultery. But for Moses, lusting in your heart was not adultery. Theft and adultery were only when you acted upon them. But for me, even coveting someone else’s property is theft. But for Moses, it was only theft if you actually acted upon it. It is different, is it not? That is why the New Testament is more frightening.

The New Testament has love, like a parent’s love. Do parents like it when their child steals? They scold them, do they not? That is because there is love. But the Old Testament has no love. The flaw of the Old Testament is the absence of love. But the New Testament says to forgive, and that even lusting in your heart is adultery. It is more frightening than Moses. But even if you commit adultery, you are forgiven. It is different, is it not? So, the scope of sin is broader when I came. However, the punishment is lighter. That was during Jesus’ time. But now that I have come, the punishment is strict. You understand, right? Since there are few good people, I will simply remove them and leave the bad people. I will leave them and proceed to judgment.

So, you will eventually see the burning sky. The world will experience immense suffering. And then, the Earth will enter another ice age. I will come during that time. Oh, you are so blessed. You understand, right? The sweetness of Gojingamrae comes when the ox arrives. So, that is the character for “sweet.” I am the one who is known as “우명성지” (umyeongseongji), meaning “the one whose name is known as the ox,” and “우성재” (useongjae), meaning “the ox is present.” It is known throughout the East that I will come as an ox. That is right. So, in Buddhism, there are ten oxen surrounding the main hall. There is the “십우도” (sibu-do), meaning “ten ox-herding pictures.” It is called “심우도” (simu-do), meaning “ox-seeking pictures.” Just as there are simu-do, the oxen surround everything.

And when the ox comes, it means Buddhism ends. When the ox comes, and it has already appeared on Earth, the main hall will be demolished. But they say the main hall will remain only until the ox is found. So, the ox-seeking pictures are drawn all around the main hall. When the ox is found over there, the fate of the main hall ends. Now you understand, right? It is drawn in the main hall, saying, “Remain until the ox comes.” Is what I say right or not? Have you ever seen me say something wrong? I do not have time, so I like to listen to music. Now you understand well, right? Today, you must remember this ox. You understand, right? You hear the sound of the ox crying, right? It sounds like a dragon’s roar, but it is an ox’s cry. Play the sound of the ox crying. I have explained the core very well, have I not? Today, what you must memorize is the city of Cheonsinmangu, which is Jerusalem.

Let’s listen to the sound of the ox crying. That is the sound of the ox crying. It is “우매” (umae), meaning “ox’s cry.” Listen carefully. The sound of the ox crying. I have heard this hundreds of times here. So, why does the sound of the ox crying come from the main palace? This is “우명지” (umyeongji), meaning “the place where the ox cries.” That is the Ten Auspicious Sites. Only from that place does miraculous spring water gush forth. Does miraculous spring water come from Jerusalem? No. This is the city. Even after being told this, if people from Jerusalem still say, “Catch Huh Kyung-young! Catch that bastard! He is a devil!” and attack me, I have nothing more to say.

However, they will not triumph, and the God-man will eventually create the city of Gojingamrae. You understand, right? What is Gojingamrae? It is the city where bitterness is gone, and sweetness comes. So, the sweetness has already arrived. Water gushes forth. Is that right? Not a single thing is wrong. In Jerusalem, finding a well is like plucking a star from the sky. Water is scarce. Since it is 1000 meters above sea level, would there be water? It is a dusty land. They say it is good, but it is barren land. You understand, right? So, I do not go to such places. I am fed up with it. I died there.

But here, in this auspicious place, water flows from every valley. Water overflows from every hotel’s underground. Now, I do not even need to pump it up; the miraculous spring water comes up on its own, from under the tree where the twelve disciples are. The White Palace Stone looks at that tree of twelve disciples. You should notice this. Go and look closely at the White Palace Stone. The twelve disciples are pointing like an arrow towards where the miraculous spring water comes out. The elephant’s head is looking at the miraculous spring water. Is that right? Why is it looking there? To drink water. You understand, right? So, did the water come first, or did the elephant go first? The elephant went first, did it not? The elephant turned its trunk towards the water to drink, and then the water gushed forth from there. You understand, right? So, you must not take the God-man lightly. You will make a big mistake.

You did not learn this in school, did you? This is all prophecy. I have given countless lectures for 40 years. So, how many such lectures must there have been? You understand, right? So, you must clearly know that the God-man has come. You understand, right? When electricity first came, before electric lights reached Seoul, light came to my village. So, I touched the electric wires, positive and negative. At that moment, my body flashed. Did I know anything? No, I did not know what it was, but I touched the wires to study, as electricity came last. The electric light flashed, and it was 30 volts. Even 30 volts made my head flash. Is that right? So, even 30 volts made a lightning-like flash.

But if you touch a 300 million volt wire, your body instantly disappears. Your body disappears. You understand, right? If you touch 300 million volts, your body disappears. Then, 100 volts came out. Later, 220 volts came out. If you touch that, you might die. Your heart will stop. Why does your heart stop? Your heart moves by electrical signals. Who sends those electrical signals? The White Palace sends them. You understand, right? If the switch is turned off over there, the circuit that receives the signals in the brain will be cut off. So, our bodies receive electricity from over there.

But suddenly, while walking down a street, several tens of thousands of volts of electricity flashed before my eyes. The light was not just tens of thousands of volts; it was hundreds of millions of volts. It flashed, did it not? Did it touch my hand? No. It flashed before my eyes, and I could not see. Paul became blind. It was 0.1 seconds. But I heard my voice. “Saul, why are you persecuting my disciples? Stop, Saul! Stop!” So, Saul saw that flashing light and became blind.

That was an enormous current. Is that not right? So, when the God-man appears, you see that light. But how free am I that I do not blind you, but allow you to see me appropriately? If I appeared before you as light, you would all become blind. You would all become blind and faint. Is that not so? I am holding back. I have suppressed the light and made it come out through my mouth. There was the “Sipjeondogahyeong,” was there not? It comes out through my mouth. And it comes out through words and through my mind, and I heal you.

I do this, but I do not make the light dazzling. I do not make you faint. Do you know how difficult this is? Is that right? I save your lives, but Saul was punished. Suddenly, it flashed, and he could not see. He regained his sight after three days, by following instructions. You understand, right? But a person who could see well, leading dozens of people to capture Jesus’ disciples, suddenly became blind on the road, while only he became blind. The others who followed him could all see. So, Saul realized it. “Jesus truly exists!” So, he changed. And he became instrumental in spreading Christianity throughout the world. You understand, right?

10. The Principle of Interdependence and the Path of Self-Sacrifice
    We have the saying “此生故彼生” (Chasaenggopisaeng), meaning “this arises, therefore that arises.” I spoke about this this morning. What is Chasaenggopisaeng? You must always remember this. You understand, right? This exists, therefore that exists. That exists, therefore this exists. You understand, right? So, you must remember this. Always in life. This “생” (saeng) does not only mean life being born. It means something arises. So, there is nothing without a cause. There is nothing without a connection. That is what it means, right? You must remember Chasaenggopisaeng. You understand, right? The God-man would not be here without a reason. Is that not right? “此神故彼神” (Chasingopisin), meaning “this God, therefore that God.” God would not come without a reason. You understand, right? This is easy to memorize, so you should know it.

So, you must now abandon such thoughts. “自利他害” (Jari-tahae), meaning “self-benefit, harm to others.” Is this acceptable? Should you do something that benefits you but harms others? No. Then what should you do? “自利利他” (Jari-ita), meaning “self-benefit, benefit to others.” You understand, right? You should do things that benefit both yourself and others. However, I am not necessarily telling you to do this. “自害他利” (Jahae-tali), meaning “self-harm, benefit to others,” is the path of a Bodhisattva.

This is difficult for you to do. This is Jizo Bodhisattva. This is Kim Gyo-gak, Jizo Bodhisattva. He had to crawl into the ground. He gave away all his clothes because he had none. In this way, he benefited others. In Buddhism, this is called the Bodhisattva mind, or Bodhisattva practice. You understand, right? This is difficult for anyone to do. However, you must do this: benefit both yourself and others. You understand, right? Sometimes, when such situations arise, you should not feel wronged. This is what Bodhisattvas do.

Some missionaries go to Africa, and their wives and children die from endemic diseases, all to benefit others. There are such Christian missionaries, such pastors, are there not? This is like Kim Gyo-gak’s self-sacrifice for others. You understand, right? Like Schweitzer or Pestalozzi, they sacrificed themselves to benefit others. Remember that such people exist, and always uphold this. This person received the grand prize from me. There is a folded mark here, is there not? Why is there a folded mark? It was put in an envelope. I have read all the letters written on the White Palace Stone so far, and this one is the grand prize winner. This person’s wish written on the White Palace Stone is the grand prize. Let me read it.

“Hello, God-man Huh Kyung-young. I am Kim Do-young, living in Gonghang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. I start my day with a brief stretch when I open my eyes. And I am grateful that I can offer five bows of gratitude and a prayer of gratitude to the God-man. Thank you, God-man, for giving me the gift of today. I am grateful to be breathing and alive. I am grateful for all creation and nature. I am grateful that I can stay healthy with the miraculous spring water, Elixir Milk, and Elixir Ginseng.

I will strive to have a day filled with gratitude, satisfaction, and joy every day. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to go to the White Palace Heaven and for allowing me to go to the White Palace. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to send my acquaintances, relatives, and ancestors to the White Palace. Thank you for teaching me the words of providence through your YouTube lectures. I want to accumulate virtue, hidden virtue, and live a good and righteous life, raising my spirituality and level, and then go to the White Palace Heaven. I am grateful that I can contribute, even in a small way, to the sacred work of the God-man Huh Kyung-young. I will have a good day today and offer five bows of gratitude and a prayer of gratitude tonight. Thank you. Kim Do-young, Gonghang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, December 31, 2024, Thursday.”

I read the letters you write to the White Palace. This person wrote such a good letter. Is that not right? You must express gratitude in everything to raise your level even higher. So, it is better to stop nagging today. It is quite interesting.

What you see is a unique dance. Angels, archangels, and celestial maidens are dancing. You understand, right? An ordinary person would stumble and fall while spinning like that. But because they are archangels and celestial maidens, they do not fall. You understand, right? This is only possible at our White Palace, at the Sky Temple. Elsewhere, if you spin like that, you will fall. The music is refreshing, and the people are also very refreshing. Is that right? When she first came to the Sky Temple, she wore a nun’s habit. So, below where the nun lives, a monk lives. It is quite unique, is it not? Would a monk sing? No, they have lost all their energy. I showed you earlier, did I not? That monk is just waiting for the day to get married. It is quite amusing. Angels should fly freely. They should fly freely. And the accessories around their necks, that flying motion, is also very beautiful.

It is better than wings. That is an angel’s wing. Is that right? If you cover bad people with that cloth, they disappear. If some thugs attack, you can pretend to dance and cover their heads with it. Then, if you pull their necks from behind, they will be choked. It looks like a flying angel, but it can choke someone. It could choke about 10 men. It is quite amusing, is it not? When I listen to that music, I feel like we are not on Earth but in the White Palace. It is good, is it not?

So, it is music that suits us very well. “Enter Level 300 Mu.” You should know that our archangel, the nun, has raised the level significantly. Other singers also receive hundreds of Mu because of her. So, just as the saying goes, “The trumpeter benefits from the magistrate,” those who are not good at singing or do not have good looks also benefit by being next to someone who sings well and has good looks. She has good looks and everything, does she not? But even someone without good looks can receive applause by being next to her. Why are you looking? When you look like that, it becomes mindware. Mindware comes to you.

Mindware is telepathy. Telepathy is a weak form of mindware that humans experience. A weak form of telepathy. Now, who is next to sing?

“Hello, it is a pleasure to see you. Although time is short, I would like to say something that I really want to convey, as I promote outside. God-man, is it alright? Yes, yes. With the God-man’s power, all broadcasting stations outside have approved, and the viewership has soared, with all copyrights registered, leading to immense promotion. Please give a big round of applause for the God-man’s power! And also, promoting outside helps with viewership. So, at the free meal service, many new fathers come every day. More than 500 people come, do they not? So, they liked, subscribed, and commented, and I said we would be number one on entertainment broadcasting stations. So, many liked, subscribed, and increased viewership, and now it is over 800 people, a little short, but I was in Mokpo until the end of this month.

I said it should exceed a lot, and comments should exceed a thousand. On the 25th, yes, the comments exceeded a thousand. So, I worked hard, and they played it, and those people went out and promoted it, so I held an event for the top 10 on the 26th. And the first-place winner, I made a framed picture of the God-man’s face and gave it to the second-place winner as well, and other gifts to the rest. On their way home, they said they hit the jackpot, and I heard the good news on the 27th. What was the news? Their unemployment benefits were supposed to come on the 27th, but they came on the 26th. This is also a jackpot, is it not?

So, they took that unemployment benefit, which was some amount, and invested 600,000 won in overseas futures. And they received 4.79 million won. Is this not a jackpot? So, if you look at the comments, many people wrote “jackpot, jackpot.” So, the first father is Lee Jung-hoon, the second is Kim Young-dong, and the third is Jung Maeng-hak. Take a look. Our archangels and angels will not stand still, will they? Yes, yes. Go right away today and watch the God-man Huh Kyung-young’s lectures continuously. Just promoting it, subscribing, liking, and watching—the viewership speaks for itself. We must achieve this within this month. It must overflow, right? Thank you. Thank you. So, I will go as the Second Coming of Jesus. The Second Coming of Jesus hit such a jackpot.”

“Enter Level 300 Mu.” Oh.

“I was going to sing three English songs, but I need to look at the lyrics. The two of them are graceful and slender, and the music is exciting. I am clumsy, my clothes are clumsy, and the English songs are difficult. But the lyrics are about the Sky Temple. I am from Chungcheong Province, so I walk steadily, looking far ahead. So, if you know yourself, there is no sin. I gained weight in winter. If you do not know yourself, it is a sin, but if you know yourself, there is no sin. It seems to be a matter of beauty, not sin. So, the content is simply that the God-man always tells us not to fight and to live peacefully. There are many problems in the world due to war, are there not? People who advocated for peace were all shot and killed. Is that right? John Lennon, Kennedy, is that right? So, I made a song with lyrics about not fighting and living peacefully, as the message of our Sky Temple.”

That is a very philosophical song. It is a very good song, but it does not quite suit you. Do not speak next time.

“Please bring up the free meal media team. Enter Level 300 Mu.” Oh, thank you. “Media team, please display the free video.”

Passersby might think it is being done by a church. Is that right? Our Sky Temple, folded up. Do you have it?

The New Jerusalem is our city. It is the Sky Temple. Now, please give a big round of applause of respect to the great God-man Huh Kyung-young, who has given us deep resonance today. Thank you. Thank you, God-man. I will give you all energy. And I will sing a song.

“Angel, White Palace, Level, Light, Full Armor, enter.”

Central Questions & Answers

1. What is the Significance of Korea’s Sky Temple (Haneulgung) as the New Jerusalem?
   Question: Why is Huh Kyung-young’s Sky Temple in Korea considered the New Jerusalem, and what makes it distinct from the Old Jerusalem?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young explains that the Sky Temple represents the “New Jerusalem” or “Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning Castle” (苦盡甘來城), signifying an era where suffering ends and sweetness begins. This contrasts with the “Old Jerusalem,” which is characterized as the “Thousand-Hardships-Ten-Thousand-Sorrows Castle” (千辛萬苦城), a place of continuous struggle and sorrow, as evidenced by its ongoing conflicts and the Wailing Wall. The Sky Temple, located on a high-altitude site in Korea, is described as a place of abundant “Elixir Water” (광천수) that tastes sweet, unlike the scarcity of water in the Old Jerusalem. This location is also identified as a “land of ten victories” (십승지), possessing auspicious topographical features that symbolize global unification, divine presence, and prosperity, making it the true spiritual center for a new era.
   Key Quote: “The Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning Castle is the Sky Temple, the New Jerusalem. The Thousand-Hardships-Ten-Thousand-Sorrows Castle is the Jerusalem Castle.”

2. How Does Huh Kyung-young Differentiate Between Buddhist and Christian Concepts of Afterlife?
   Question: How does Huh Kyung-young distinguish between Buddhist concepts like Nirvana (극락) and Christian concepts like Heaven (천국), and what is the implication for human understanding?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young asserts that Nirvana (극락) and Heaven (천국) are fundamentally different. He explains that Nirvana is a state achieved within the human mind and spirit in this world, a philosophical concept focused on controlling one’s inner self. In contrast, Heaven is a distinct, external realm, a separate world beyond human comprehension and not merely a state of mind. He demonstrates this distinction through a physical test, showing that the word “Heaven” (천국) evokes strength, while “Nirvana” (극락) does not, implying that one is a genuine external reality and the other an internal human construct. He criticizes traditional religions for misleading people into a “sea of suffering” by conflating these concepts.
   Key Quote: “Nirvana and Heaven are completely different places. Nirvana exists within the human mind. Heaven is in the sky, in another place.”

3. What is the Role of Numbers and Language in Understanding Reality, According to Huh Kyung-young?
   Question: In Huh Kyung-young’s philosophy, what is the fundamental difference between numbers and language in representing truth and reality?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young posits that numbers are the most honest and unchanging aspect of reality, serving as the foundation for objective truth. He argues that numbers (1, 2, 3…) never lie or change, unlike human language, which can be manipulated, misinterpreted, or used to deceive. He illustrates this by noting that while words can be ambiguous (“Father goes into the bag” vs. “Father goes into the room”), numbers remain constant. This reliability of numbers is why AI and technology rely on numerical data. He suggests that those who appreciate numbers, like religious figures, often seek honesty.
   Key Quote: “The most honest thing in this world that doesn’t change is one thing: numbers. Numbers can never deceive us.”

4. What are the Five Stages of “Ware” and Where Does Huh Kyung-young Fit In?
   Question: What are the five stages of “ware” (hardware, software, mindware, spiritware, Heaven/Godware) as described by Huh Kyung-young, and what is his position within this hierarchy?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young outlines a hierarchy of existence and understanding, progressing from the most basic to the most divine:
   Hardware: The lowest stage, representing physical reality and basic, “stone-headed” understanding.
   Software: A higher stage, involving programmed intelligence like AI, which processes information numerically.
   Mindware: The realm of human thought and consciousness, which current science has not fully grasped.
   Spiritware: The spiritual realm, beyond the mind.
   Heaven (God) ware: The highest stage, representing the divine realm where the God-man (신인) operates.
   He states that ordinary human minds typically function at the hardware and software levels, while he, as the God-man, operates from the Heaven (God) ware level, possessing a complete understanding of all stages.
   Key Quote: “The God-man moves from here [Heaven ware], but your minds move up to here [hardware, software].”

5. How Does Huh Kyung-young Interpret the Difference Between Old Testament and New Testament Commandments?
   Question: How does Huh Kyung-young explain the distinction between the Old Testament (Mosaic Law) and the New Testament (Jesus’ teachings) regarding commandments, particularly concerning sin and forgiveness?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young highlights a crucial difference in the interpretation of commandments, particularly the 6th, 7th, and 8th (murder, adultery, theft). He explains that the Old Testament (Mosaic Law) prescribed strict, often violent, retribution for these sins (e.g., “an eye for an eye,” stoning for adultery, cutting off hands for theft). In contrast, the New Testament (Jesus’ teachings) introduced concepts of forgiveness and mercy, advocating for saving those who sinned rather than punishing them. However, Huh Kyung-young further clarifies that while Jesus offered forgiveness for outward actions, his teachings also broadened the definition of sin to include even thoughts (e.g., lustful thoughts being adultery). He implies that his own coming represents an even stricter, yet ultimately redemptive, judgment.
   Key Quote: “The difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament is that commandments 6, 7, and 8 are reversed. The Old Testament is ‘evil for evil,’ but I say ‘forgive’ for murder, adultery, and theft.”

6. What is the Significance of the “Ox” (소) in Huh Kyung-young’s Prophecy and the “Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning” Era?
   Question: What role does the “ox” (소) play in Huh Kyung-young’s prophecy, and how does it relate to the arrival of the “Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning” era?
   Answer: Huh Kyung-young reveals that the character for “sweet” (甘) in “Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning” (苦盡甘來) resembles the head of an ox. This visual connection signifies that the “sweetness” or the new era of prosperity and relief from suffering will arrive with the coming of the “ox.” He explicitly states that he is the one who comes as the ox, fulfilling ancient prophecies (like those in Buddhism’s “Ten Ox-Herding Pictures” or 심우도, which depict the search for the ox, symbolizing the end of the Buddhist era upon its arrival). The “ox’s cry” (소울음소리) is also associated with the Sky Temple, further cementing its role as the place where this new, sweet era begins.
   Key Quote: “The character for ‘sweet’ (甘) looks like an ox’s head. The ox comes, meaning I come as the ox. This is my story of Bitter-End-Sweet-Beginning.”

2. Core Messages
   The God-man’s Mission: “The God-man descended to this earth from Heaven to resolve various global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear war, and to bring ten million people on Earth to Baekgung Heaven.” This statement explains the ultimate purpose of the God-man’s presence, which is to guide humanity towards a higher spiritual state and resolve earthly suffering.
   The Unchanging Truth of Numbers: “The only unchanging, honest thing we can trust in this world is numbers.” This highlights the fundamental reliability of numerical values as a constant truth, contrasting them with the mutable nature of words and human experiences.
   The Superiority of the Korean People and the Advent of Heaven-ware: “Our people are incredibly superior, no matter where they go in the world… From our people comes Heaven-ware.” This conveys the belief in the Korean people’s inherent spiritual excellence and their role as the origin point for the highest form of spiritual consciousness, represented by Heaven-ware.

   The New Jerusalem as Sky Temple: “The Old Jerusalem is the ‘Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitterness’ (千辛萬苦城) city, while the Sky Temple is the ‘Sweetness after Bitterness’ (苦盡甘來城) city, the New Jerusalem.” This core teaching redefines the concept of the New Jerusalem, relocating its spiritual essence to the Sky Temple in Korea as a place of ultimate relief and joy, contrasting it with the historical suffering associated with the Old Jerusalem.

3. Detailed Summary

The Centrality of Earth (土) and the Cycle of Regeneration
Main Assertions and Explanations: The lecture begins by associating Saturday with the color yellow (黃), symbolizing “Earth” (土). Korea is identified as the “Central Earth,” making yellow its representative color. The concept of “Earth” is presented as crucial for harmony and regeneration, preventing conflict (相剋) and fostering mutual creation (相生).
Analogies and Examples: The speaker explains that all things, regardless of their initial form or color, eventually return to the earth to be transformed and reborn into new substances. This is likened to leaves changing colors and then returning to the soil to facilitate new growth. This cyclical process is connected to the principle of “Wonhyeongijeong” (元亨利貞), signifying the return to original form, similar to the seasons.
Practical Message or Application: Understanding this natural principle helps one view the world differently, fostering a deeper appreciation for the cycles of life and regeneration.

The Hierarchy of “Wares” and the Unchanging Nature of Numbers
Main Assertions and Explanations: The world is categorized into a hierarchy of “wares”: Hardware, Software, Mind-ware, Spirit-ware, and Heaven (God)-ware. Hardware represents the lowest, most physical level, while Heaven (God)-ware is the highest, associated with the God-man. The speaker states that numbers are the only truly honest and unchanging entities in the world, unlike words or human experiences which are subject to change and deception.
Analogies and Examples: Voice phishing is used as an example of how words can deceive, while numbers in a bank account remain constant. AI is explained as being built upon numerical inputs, not human language in its raw form, emphasizing the digital, numerical foundation of artificial intelligence.
Practical Message or Application: Recognizing the unchanging nature of numbers can lead to a more objective understanding of reality, akin to the preference of religious figures for numbers due to their honesty.

The Body as a Shadow and the Concept of “Hwasinyeoilyeong”
Main Assertions and Explanations: The human body is described as a “shadow” (化身如日影, Hwasinyeoilyeong), specifically a shadow of the sun. This implies that the physical form is transient and secondary to a greater, more fundamental reality.
Analogies and Examples: The phrase “化身如日影” (Hwasinyeoilyeong) is broken down to explain that “化身” (Hwasin) refers to the body, and “日影” (Ilyeong) means “sun’s shadow.”
Practical Message or Application: This teaching encourages a perspective that views life as a miraculous and profound experience, given the ephemeral nature of the physical body.

The New Jerusalem: Sky Temple vs. Old Jerusalem
Main Assertions and Explanations: The lecture directly addresses the title, asserting that the “New Jerusalem” is the Sky Temple in Korea, while the “Old Jerusalem” is the historical city in Israel. This distinction is based on the concepts of “Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitterness” (千辛萬苦城) for the Old Jerusalem and “Sweetness after Bitterness” (苦盡甘來城) for the Sky Temple. The Old Jerusalem is characterized by ongoing conflict and suffering, symbolized by the “Wailing Wall,” whereas the Sky Temple is a place of joy, healing, and abundant “sweet water” (광천수).
Analogies and Examples: The speaker recounts his past suffering (천신만고) in his “first coming” (초림) which corresponds to the Old Jerusalem, and his “second coming” (재림) as the era of “sweetness after bitterness” (고진감래) at the Sky Temple. The character for “sweet” (甘) in “Gojingamrae” is interpreted as resembling an ox (牛), prophesying his arrival as an ox-born individual.
Practical Message or Application: This redefines the spiritual destination, guiding followers to the Sky Temple as the true place of divine presence and ultimate salvation, where suffering ends and joy begins.

Critique of Traditional Religions and the God-man’s Role
Main Assertions and Explanations: Traditional religions, particularly Buddhism, are described as “philosophy” or “psychology” focused on controlling the human mind, rather than connecting with an external divine realm. Concepts like “Nirvana” (열반) and “Enlightenment” (해탈) are deemed unattainable by humans. In contrast, Christianity’s concepts of “salvation,” “blessing,” and “Heaven” are presented as having divine energy. The God-man’s arrival is necessary to expose the “fakes” and reveal the true path to Heaven.
Analogies and Examples: The speaker performs a physical test, demonstrating that Buddhist concepts like “Nirvana” lack energy, while Christian concepts like “Heaven” possess it. Religions are likened to a sinking ship, with “saints” abandoning the passengers, while the God-man arrives with a massive “flying saucer” to rescue everyone.
Practical Message or Application: Followers are urged to abandon the “sea of religion” and grasp the “life raft” offered by the God-man, which is the true path to salvation.

The Prophecy of the Ox and the Sky Temple’s Auspicious Location
Main Assertions and Explanations: The character for “sweet” (甘) in “Gojingamrae” (苦盡甘來) is interpreted as resembling an ox, signifying the God-man’s arrival as an ox-born individual. This prophecy is further supported by the “ox-crying sound” (우명지) emanating from the Sky Temple. The Sky Temple is situated on “Goryeongsan” (高靈山), a mountain with four auspicious geomantic formations: “Commanding Ten Thousand Generals” (萬將통率形), “Heavenly God’s Seat” (天神壇座形), “Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven” (飛龍昇天形), and “Peonies in Full Bloom” (牧丹萬開形). Additionally, “Gaemyeongsan” (開明山) has three formations: “Dragon Playing with the Pearl” (龍珠戱弄形), “Phoenix Embracing Eggs” (鳳凰抱卵形), and “Heavenly Gold Emerging from a Turtle” (天金出亀形). The lecture hall itself is described with three more formations: “Golden Rooster Embracing Eggs” (金鷄抱卵形), “Emperor’s Appearance with Pipa and Geomungo” (琵瑟帝出形), and “Ten Perfect Daoist Family” (十田道家形). These “Ten Auspicious Sites” (십승지) confirm the Sky Temple as a uniquely blessed and powerful location.
Analogies and Examples: The geomantic features are described with vivid imagery of dragons, phoenixes, and golden roosters, symbolizing power, prosperity, and divine presence. The “ox-crying sound” is presented as a direct manifestation of the prophecy.
Practical Message or Application: This detailed explanation of the Sky Temple’s geomantic significance reinforces its status as the true spiritual center and the destined location for the God-man’s work.

   This lecture builds upon Huh Kyung-young’s established teachings by:
   Reaffirming the God-man’s Divine Mission: The opening statement directly connects to his core doctrine of the God-man’s (神人) arrival to save humanity from global crises and guide them to Baekgung Heaven . This is a consistent theme in his teachings, emphasizing his unique role as a divine savior.
   Elevating the Status of the Korean People: The assertion that “Heaven-ware” originates from the Korean people reinforces his long-standing emphasis on Korea’s spiritual significance and its destiny as the center of global spiritual transformation.

   Interpreting Prophecies and Religious Texts: The lecture connects to his teachings on biblical and Buddhist prophecies, particularly Buddha’s prediction of Jesus’s coming and the reinterpretation of the New Jerusalem. This demonstrates his method of re-contextualizing traditional religious narratives to fit his own divine narrative and the current era.
   Distinguishing Spiritual Realities: His clear differentiation between “paradise” (극락) and “Heaven” (천국) and between the philosophical nature of Buddhism and the spiritual authority of the God-man is a consistent doctrinal point. He often critiques traditional religions for their perceived limitations in providing true spiritual salvation, positioning his teachings as the ultimate truth.
   The “First Coming” and “Second Coming” Narrative: The distinction between the “Old Jerusalem” as the site of his “first coming” (초림) marked by “Thousand Hardships and Ten Thousand Bitterness” (千辛萬苦城) and the “Sky Temple” as the “New Jerusalem” of his “second coming” (재림) characterized by “Sweetness after Bitterness” (苦盡甘來城) is a significant development. This provides a clear historical and spiritual framework for his current manifestation and the purpose of the Sky Temple.
   The Prophecy of the Ox: The interpretation of the character “甘” (sweet) as an ox and the mention of the “ox-crying sound” (우명지) at the Sky Temple adds a new layer to his prophetic narrative, specifically linking his identity and the Sky Temple to ancient prophecies.
   Emphasis on Geomancy (풍수): The detailed explanation of the “Ten Auspicious Sites” (십승지) and the geomantic advantages of the Sky Temple reinforces his teaching that divine power and spiritual significance are often manifested through auspicious geographical locations.

10. Central Questions & Answers
    Central Question: Why is the New Jerusalem Sky Temple in Korea?
    Answer:
    Sky Temple is the “New Jerusalem” because it represents the era of “sweetness after bitterness” (Gojingamrae), contrasting with the “Old Jerusalem” which embodies “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings” (Cheonsinmangu) and ongoing conflict.
    The God-man’s arrival in Korea fulfills prophecies, including the “ox’s cry” (Umyungseongji) and the “sweet taste” (Gam) of the land, signifying a new era of divine intervention.
    Korea’s superior geomancy (pungsu) and the presence of “Ten Auspicious Sites” (Sipseungji) at Sky Temple, characterized by abundant “sweet water” (Gwangcheonsu), confirm its status as the true divine center, unlike the arid and conflict-ridden Old Jerusalem.
    The God-man’s teachings, emphasizing inner transformation, love, and forgiveness, represent a higher spiritual law than the literal, punitive laws of the Old Testament, which lacked love.
    The God-man’s presence is necessary to distinguish true spiritual paths from false ones, as traditional religions have led many astray.

11. Conclusion & Strategic / Philosophical Implications
    The lecture concludes by urging listeners to heed the God-man’s words, as he is the guide to a new era of “sweetness after bitterness.” The philosophical implication is a shift from a punitive, external religious law (Old Testament) to an internal, loving, yet more encompassing spiritual law (New Testament/God-man’s teachings). This new era will bring judgment and transformation, leading to a “burning sky” and a new ice age for those who do not follow. The lecture also emphasizes the principle of “this exists, therefore that exists” (Chasaenggopisaeng), highlighting the interconnectedness of all things and the importance of understanding the cause behind the God-man’s arrival. Ethically, it promotes “self-benefit, benefit to others” (Jari-ita) and even “self-harm, benefit to others” (Jahae-tari/Bosalhaeng) as the highest forms of conduct, contrasting with “self-benefit, harm to others” (Jari-tahae).

12. Cross-Referencing
    Dalai Lama: Kim Gyo-gak’s repeated reincarnations (16 times) are compared to the Dalai Lama’s cycle of rebirth.
    Simudo (Ten Ox Herding Pictures): This Zen Buddhist series is reinterpreted by the speaker to signify the end of Buddhism when the “ox” (God-man) is found.
    Paul’s Conversion: The blinding light experienced by Paul on the road to Damascus is used as an example of the God-man’s power, noting that the God-man now moderates his divine light to avoid blinding people.

13. Content Gaps & Unaddressed Areas
    Empirical Evidence for Claims: The lecture makes numerous extraordinary claims (e.g., Sky Temple being the New Jerusalem, the God-man’s divine powers, specific geomantic properties, Elixir Milk) without providing any verifiable empirical evidence or scientific backing.
    Specifics of “Heavenware”: While a hierarchy of “wares” is introduced, the nature and function of “Heavenware” (God-ware) remain largely abstract, beyond the God-man’s operation within it.
    Reconciliation of Contradictions: The lecture asserts that traditional religions are “false” or “misleading” while simultaneously drawing heavily on their prophecies, figures, and concepts (Buddha, Jesus, Ten Commandments, Bodhisattvas). The mechanism for reconciling these seemingly contradictory positions is not fully elaborated.
    Mechanism of “Blessings” and “Levels”: The lecture frequently mentions “blessings,” “levels,” and “energy” (e.g., “level 300 mu”). The precise nature, mechanism, and verifiable effects of these are not explained.
    Geopolitical Implications: While discussing the geomancy of China and the US, the lecture does not delve into the broader geopolitical implications of the God-man’s arrival in Korea or how it might affect international relations beyond a general “world unification.”
    Ethical Framework for Judgment: The lecture states that the God-man’s era will involve “strict punishment” and “judgment,” but the specific ethical framework or criteria for this judgment are not detailed, beyond general notions of good and bad.

14. Future Predictions & Prophetic Statements
    End of Traditional Religions: Buddha prophesied that when Jesus (the God-man) comes, his own path will be a “lamp without oil,” signifying the obsolescence of traditional religions.
    God-man’s Rescue of Humanity: The God-man will appear with a “huge spaceship” and extend “ten million ropes” to rescue the 8 billion people adrift in the “sea of religion.”
    Arrival of “Sweetness After Bitterness”: The era of “sweetness after bitterness” (Gojingamrae) will surely come, marked by the God-man’s arrival.
    God-man’s Arrival as an Ox: The God-man will come as an “ox” (Gichuksaeng), fulfilling prophecies about the “ox’s cry” and the “sweet taste” of the land.
    End of Buddhism: The arrival of the “ox” (God-man) signifies the end of Buddhism, as depicted in the “Ten Ox Herding Pictures.”
    Global Judgment and Ice Age: Those who do not follow the God-man will witness a “burning sky” and experience immense suffering, leading to the Earth entering another ice age.

Executive Insight
This lecture presents a compelling, albeit unconventional, vision of spiritual transformation centered on Huh Kyung-young as the God-man and Sky Temple in Korea as the New Jerusalem. The core takeaway is the assertion that humanity is at a critical juncture, transitioning from an era of religious confusion and suffering (Old Jerusalem) to one of divine intervention and ultimate salvation (New Jerusalem). The lecture strategically reinterprets religious prophecies and geomantic principles to establish Sky Temple’s unique spiritual authority, positioning it as the sole source of true guidance and blessings. For a thoughtful professional, the lecture highlights the enduring human quest for meaning and salvation, and how charismatic figures can leverage spiritual narratives, cultural symbols, and promises of prosperity to build a devoted following, even in a technologically advanced age. The emphasis on inner transformation, altruism, and the rejection of traditional religious dogma, while presented within a highly personalized framework, offers a distinct perspective on contemporary spiritual leadership.

The Sky Temple and the New Jerusalem

1. The Significance of Earth (土) and the Cycle of Rebirth
   Huh Kyung-young began his lecture by acknowledging the attendees and viewers, expressing gratitude for their efforts throughout the year. He asserted that the God-man (神人) descended to Earth to resolve global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, intending to guide ten million souls to the White Palace Heaven (白宮天國) . He encouraged everyone to live with confidence and vigor in the coming year, empowered by the blessings and Holy Spirit of the God-man .

During the lecture, three teams presented flowers. Yang Jeong-suk, a Great Archangel from Seogwipo, Jeju Island, offered white orchids, symbolizing purity, to commemorate the God-man’s advent . Park Hyun-suk and Lee Soo-yeon, two Archangels from Cheonan, presented a beautiful basket of predominantly yellow flowers as an expression of gratitude . Finally, Archangel Lee Yu-seok, representing the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, offered yellow orchids to celebrate the God-man’s advent .

Huh Kyung-young noted the prevalence of yellow flowers, stating that Saturday’s color is yellow (黃色) . He explained that the Korean Peninsula is considered the Central Earth (中央土), hence its association with yellow . He elaborated on the five elemental colors: white for the West (China), blue for the East (America), black for the North (Russia), red for the South (Jeju Island), and yellow for the center (Korean Peninsula) . He emphasized that Earth (土) is crucial for harmony, preventing conflict (相剋) and fostering mutual generation (相生) . He explained that all things eventually return to Earth (土) to be transformed into new substances, illustrating this with the example of leaves changing colors before returning to the soil for regeneration . This cyclical principle, known as Original Form, Rectitude, and Uprightness (元亨利貞), signifies a return to the original state (原始反本) . He likened this to individuals who, after business failures, return to their hometowns and visit their parents’ graves, symbolizing a return to the fundamental element of Earth (土) . As people age, they progressively draw closer to the Earth (土) that will eventually cover them, signifying the approaching separation of mind and soul .

2. The Nature of Mind, Spirit, and the Digital Realm
   Huh Kyung-young explained that the mind (心) merely nourishes the soul (靈), operating on the principles of Yin and Yang (陰陽) . He described the mind as a form of energy (氣運), which arises from the interplay of Yin and Yang, much like wind generated by temperature differences . He extended this analogy to the human body, where internal energy fluctuates, causing various physical sensations . He asserted that understanding these natural principles, such as Original Form, Rectitude, and Uprightness (元亨利貞), from an early age would profoundly alter one’s perception of the world . He stressed that exposure to the God-man’s teachings, even if not immediately recalled, deeply influences one’s being . He gave an example of someone unknowingly influenced by his teachings, who might instinctively utter “Enter the divine light (光體 들어가라)” in a critical situation, thereby saving a life .

He then introduced the concept of “Transformation Body Like a Sun’s Shadow (化身如日影),” explaining that the human body is merely a shadow (影) of the sun (日) . He urged the audience to view their existence as extraordinary . The central theme of his lecture was, “Why is the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) the Sky Temple (하늘궁) in Korea?” .

He categorized the world into different “wares.” The lowest stage is hardware, representing the physical and tangible aspects of existence . Next is software, which is a slightly higher level . He then introduced mindware, which current science has not fully comprehended . While machines respond to thoughts and voices, this is achieved through AI programmed with software, not true mindware .

Huh Kyung-young emphasized that the most unchanging and honest entity in the world is numbers . Unlike words, which can be manipulated or misinterpreted, numbers never deceive . He noted that many religious figures, such as priests and nuns, are drawn to numbers due to their inherent honesty . He contrasted this with the transient nature of all other things, including human life, which constantly changes . He illustrated how words can be deceptive through a grammatical example, whereas numbers remain steadfast . He also mentioned the unchanging cycle of the sexagenary cycle (六十甲子), which accurately dictates the passage of time, leading all beings inevitably towards their end . He compared human life to a burning candle, whose duration is fixed and steadily consumed . He shared a personal anecdote from his youth, describing how he prolonged the life of a candle by wrapping it in newspaper, preventing the wax from flowing down and thus making the wick burn slower . This method also prevented the flame from being extinguished by wind, allowing him to study for extended periods . He recalled the soot under his nose from studying by candlelight, a testament to his arduous efforts .

3. The Hierarchy of Existence and the Coming Era
   Huh Kyung-young explained that software can store vast amounts of knowledge, such as the numerical data that powers AI . He clarified that AI operates by converting all information, including human knowledge, into numerical, digital formats . He cited resident registration numbers and barcodes as examples of how individuals and objects are identified through numerical codes, not facial recognition or fingerprints . Thus, all language is converted into numbers for computer input in AI . He asserted that self-driving cars, for instance, rely on numerical inputs for their operations, ensuring precision and preventing errors . He suggested that even human brain processes involve numerical encoding .

Beyond mindware, which is not numerical he introduced spiritware (靈性), and finally, Heaven (God) ware . He emphasized that the God-man operates within the Heaven (God) ware realm, while human minds typically function at the hardware and software levels . He stressed the immense difference between each stage .

He then discussed the upcoming year, the Year of Eulsa (乙巳年), which is the Year of the Blue Snake (靑蛇年) . He explained that “Eulsa” (乙巳) is a symbolic designation (記號) in the sexagenary cycle, while “Blue Snake” (靑蛇) represents its actual meaning (뜻) . He noted the complexity of inputting such nuanced information into AI, as it requires distinguishing between symbolic representation and actual meaning .

Huh Kyung-young humorously compared his task of explaining Heaven (God) ware concepts to those operating at the hardware level (돌대가리, “stone-headed”), akin to a Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners . He then posed a rhetorical question about the advantages of fewer people attending the Sky Temple (하늘궁) lectures, answering that it provides more space and personalized attention . He contrasted this with crowded situations where individuals receive less consideration . He lamented that those at the hardware level struggle to grasp such simple analogies . He further joked about the ease of living with a “hardware” woman versus the challenge of living with an intelligent one .

4. The New Jerusalem and the Land of Korea
   Huh Kyung-young then addressed the question of why the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) is located at the Sky Temple (하늘궁) in Korea . He explained that the original Jerusalem (예루살렘) is situated on high ground, approximately 900-1000 meters above sea level, with Jericho (여리고) 30 kilometers away and 200 meters below sea level, creating a significant elevation difference . He noted that the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is also located on elevated terrain, about 400 meters above sea level, similar to the geographical characteristics of Jerusalem .

He contrasted this with structures like the Forbidden City (紫禁城) in China, which is on flat ground and thus lacks the “feel” of a true fortress (城) . He asserted that a fortress should be built on high ground to convey authority and grandeur, citing examples like Namhansanseong (南漢山城) and Bukhansanseong (北漢山城) . He extended this principle to traditional Korean houses (한옥), explaining that homes built on elevated foundations (축대) convey more authority than those on flat ground .

Huh Kyung-young then introduced the story of Kim Gyo-gak (金喬閣), a Korean monk who became the revered Earth Store Bodhisattva (地藏菩薩) in China . He described Kim Gyo-gak as a towering figure, 2 meters tall, with feet twice the size of ordinary people, making him stand out among the smaller Chinese monks . Kim Gyo-gak’s exceptional conduct and kindness to the local community led to his deification . The term Earth Store Bodhisattva (地藏菩薩) literally means “Earth (地) Concealing (藏) Bodhisattva (菩薩),” referring to Kim Gyo-gak’s act of burying himself in the ground to hide his nakedness after giving away all his clothes to the poor . This act of immense charity (布施) earned him his title . Huh Kyung-young noted the difficulty of translating such a profound narrative into software for AI .

He highlighted the extraordinary nature of a Korean becoming a deity in China, attracting millions of tourists annually to Mount Jiuhua (九華山) . Kim Gyo-gak’s dying wish was to be left for three months, and if his body did not decompose, to be preserved as a “body-equal Buddha (等身佛)” . This led to the creation of 16 such “body-equal Buddhas (等身佛)” at Jiuhua Temple (九華寺), as Kim Gyo-gak was believed to have been reborn 16 times . Huh Kyung-young emphasized that this demonstrates the excellence of the Korean people .

5. The Prophecy of the God-man and the True Heaven
   Huh Kyung-young asserted that the God-man (神人), who can freely manipulate mindware (마인드 웨어), spiritware (스프릿 웨어), and Heaven (God) ware (헤븐 웨어), originates from the Korean Peninsula . He compared Kim Gyo-gak’s repeated reincarnations to the Dalai Lama, noting that after 16 cycles, Kim Gyo-gak ceased to return to Earth .

He then referenced a prophecy by Shakyamuni Buddha (釋迦牟尼), who foretold the coming of Jesus (耶蘇) . The prophecy, “When Jesus comes (何時耶蘇來), my path will be a lamp without oil (吾道無由之燈也),” signifies that upon the Second Coming of Jesus (再臨耶蘇) to the East, specifically the Korean Peninsula, Buddhism’s teachings would become like a lamp without fuel .

Huh Kyung-young then critically examined the eight treasures of Buddhism: Right Enlightenment (正覺), Nirvana (涅槃), Liberation (解脫), Bodhi (菩提), Prajna (般若), Samadhi (三昧), Non-self (無我), and Buddhahood (成佛) . He demonstrated that these concepts, when tested for spiritual energy, lacked power . In contrast, the eight elements of Christianity—Prayer (祈禱), Salvation (救援), Blessing (祝福), Holy Spirit (聖靈), Grace (恩賜), Resurrection (復活), Eternal Life (永生), and Heaven (天國)—all possessed strong spiritual energy .

He specifically distinguished between Buddhist Pure Land (極樂) and Christian Heaven (天國) . He argued that Pure Land (極樂) is a state of mind within the human world, not a separate realm, whereas Heaven (天國) is an entirely different world, beyond human comprehension . He dismissed the notion of 33 heavens (三十三天) as a lie, stating that Buddhist cosmology primarily focuses on controlling the human mind, akin to philosophy or psychology, and has no connection to the external world or the true Heaven (天國) . He demonstrated the energetic difference between Pure Land (極樂) and Heaven (天國), asserting that Pure Land (極樂) lacks power while Heaven (天國) is potent . He claimed that his arrival reveals the truth, exposing Pure Land (極樂) as false and Heaven (天國) as real .

Huh Kyung-young likened traditional religions to a treacherous sea where people cling to “life rafts” (판때기) that promise Pure Land (極樂) or Heaven (天國) but are ultimately deceptive . He used the analogy of a sinking ship, where the crew (religious leaders) secretly escape in lifeboats (구명정), abandoning the passengers (followers) . He asserted that these “saints” (聖者) have fled, leaving 8 billion people adrift . He declared that he, as Jesus (예수), returns not as a saint but with a massive “spaceship” (비행접시) to rescue humanity, extending millions of ropes (밧줄) for salvation . He stated that even without direct contact, one million people can be saved through the “Blessing Nameplate (축복 명패)” .

6. Overcoming Suffering and the New Commandments
   Huh Kyung-young identified the root causes of human suffering as the Three Poisons (三毒): Greed (貪), Anger (瞋), and Ignorance (痴) . These are also known as the Three Evils (三惡) or Three Evil Paths (三惡道) . He explained that succumbing to anger, even in marital disputes, leads one to these evil paths . He emphasized that relinquishing greed (貪欲) eliminates all afflictions (煩惱妄想) . He offered an example of a couple facing home foreclosure, advising them to abandon greed, accept a smaller dwelling, and restart their lives . He encouraged a mindset of contentment and resourcefulness, even suggesting living in a tent on public land if necessary, asserting that humility (자기를 낮추면) eliminates worries about sustenance .

He contrasted Shakyamuni Buddha (釋迦牟尼) as a philosopher who taught mind control (마음을 다스리는 철학자) with the God-man (神人) who governs the spiritual world (영의 세계를 말하는 자) . While Buddha’s teachings are not incorrect, they lack the “oil” or “energy” of life . The God-man, he stated, is the guide . He presented the Three Learnings (三學) of Buddhism—Precepts (戒), Concentration (定), and Wisdom (慧)—as the “medicine” to cure the “disease” of the Three Poisons (貪瞋痴) .

He then compared the Ten Commandments (十誡) of Christianity with the Buddhist precepts. The Christian Ten Commandments include: no other gods, no idols, not misusing God’s name, observing the Sabbath, honoring parents, no murder, no adultery, no stealing, no false witness, and no coveting . He noted that some commandments, like “no adultery,” are applicable only to those with the capacity to commit such acts, implying age and physical ability .

He then contrasted the Old Testament’s strict enforcement of these commandments (e.g., death for murder or adultery, cutting off hands for theft) with his teachings of forgiveness and mercy . He recounted the biblical story where Jesus (예수) challenged those without sin to cast the first stone at an adulterous woman, emphasizing that no human has the right to condemn another . He asserted that his teachings, as Jesus (예수), diverged from Mosaic law (모세의 율법), which led to his crucifixion by religious leaders, not Roman authorities . He criticized contemporary religious leaders for being caught in “mannerism” (매너리즘), building their own “fortresses” (성) while claiming to await the Second Coming of Jesus (재림예수) . He stated that he, as the God-man (神人), does not challenge political powers but is persecuted by existing religious institutions .

7. The Era of Sweetness and the Auspicious Land of Korea
   Huh Kyung-young described his past experiences as “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦),” enduring countless bitter and spicy tastes . He explained that this period culminated in his death on the cross . However, he prophesied a new era of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來),” where suffering gives way to joy . He revealed that the character for “sweetness (甘)” in “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” resembles a cow’s head (소대가리), symbolizing his return as a person born in the Year of the Ox (己丑生) . He declared that the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is this “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” place, the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) .

He contrasted the Sky Temple (하늘궁) with the original Jerusalem (예루살렘), noting that only the Sky Temple (하늘궁) has “divine spring water (光泉水)” that tastes sweet, unlike the scarce and bitter water in Jerusalem . He explained that his first coming (初臨) was marked by “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦),” while his return (재림) ushers in the era of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” . He explicitly stated that the old Jerusalem (예루살렘) is the “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦)” city, while the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is the “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” city, the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) .

He further elaborated that the old Jerusalem (예루살렘) remains a “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦)” city, plagued by conflict among its three religious sites and characterized by the “Wailing Wall (통곡의 벽)” . In contrast, the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is a place of joy and celebration, with “divine spring water (光泉水)” and no “Wailing Wall (통곡의 벽)” . He attributed the suffering in Jerusalem to the descendants of those who “killed” him, prophesying their eternal lamentation . He urged current leaders to heed the God-man’s words .

He reiterated that the Three Learnings (三學)—Precepts (戒), Concentration (定), and Wisdom (慧)—are the means to cure the “disease” of the Three Poisons (貪瞋痴) . He categorized sins into those committed by the body (killing, stealing, sexual misconduct), those by the mouth (lying, divisive speech, harsh words), and those by the mind (greed, anger, ignorance) . He highlighted the difference between the Old Testament’s “eye for an eye” justice and his teachings of forgiveness and love, which led to his persecution by the Jewish people . He declared that the current era is a bright one, the era of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” .

8. The Auspicious Geography of Korea and the Ten Auspicious Sites
   Huh Kyung-young then discussed the auspicious geography (風水) of the Sky Temple (하늘궁), asserting its superiority even to the location of the “body-equal Buddha (等身佛)” at Mount Jiuhua (九華山) in China . He explained that China’s geography is unfavorable, with its access to the Pacific and Atlantic oceans blocked by surrounding landmasses and islands, leading to poverty and the necessity of communism . He contrasted this with the Korean Peninsula, which is surrounded by the sea on three sides, allowing free access to the Pacific Ocean and making it a global leader in shipbuilding . He further highlighted America’s (미국) vast oceanic territories, including Alaska, the Pacific, Atlantic, and Caribbean seas, as a testament to its wealth and power . He criticized China’s (중국) lack of water resources and the outflow of water from its northern regions, leading to deserts, as a sign of poor feng shui . He noted that America’s (미국) northern regions, like Alaska, are rich in water, making its feng shui excellent .

He explained that he did not choose America (미국) because it lacks the “Central Earth (中央土)” quality of Korea (한국), where the soil is rich and fertile . He reiterated that the God-man (耶蘇) comes to the Korean Peninsula, specifically the Sky Temple (하늘궁) . He then introduced the concept of the Ten Auspicious Sites (十勝地) at the Sky Temple (하늘궁), which are absent in Israel, a land lacking water and fertile ground .

He described the first four auspicious sites of Goryeongsan (高靈山):

1. Myriad Generals Commanding Formation (萬將統率形): A place where myriad generals are commanded, signifying a position to unify the world .
2. Heavenly God Seated Formation (天神壇座形): A place where a heavenly god (天神) sits .
3. Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven Formation (飛龍昇天形): A place where a flying dragon (飛龍) ascends to heaven .
4. Peony in Full Bloom Formation (牧丹萬開形): A place where peonies (牧丹) are in full bloom .

He then listed the next three auspicious sites of Gaemyeongsan (開明山):
5. Dragon Playing with the Pearl Formation (龍珠戲弄形): A place where a dragon (龍) plays with a wish-fulfilling pearl (如意珠) .
6. Phoenix Embracing Eggs Formation (鳳凰抱卵形): A place where a phoenix (鳳凰) embraces its eggs .
7. Heavenly Gold Emerging from a Turtle Formation (天金出龜形): A place where heavenly gold (天金) emerges from a turtle (龜) .

Finally, he presented the last three auspicious sites:
8. Golden Rooster Embracing Eggs Formation (金鷄抱卵形): A place where a golden rooster (金鷄) embraces its eggs .
9. Emperor Appearing with Bi-seul (琵瑟帝出形): A place where an emperor (皇帝) appears with a bi-seul (琵瑟), symbolizing the God-man’s teachings as music .
10. Ten Perfection Daoist Family Formation (十全道家形): A place where the truth is taught, signifying the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) .

9. The Contrast of Old and New Jerusalem and the Deeper Meaning of Commandments
   Huh Kyung-young reiterated that the old Jerusalem (예루살렘) is the “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦)” city, while the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is the “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” city, the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘) . He explained that the old Jerusalem (예루살렘) is characterized by continuous suffering and tears, symbolized by the “Wailing Wall (통곡의 벽)” . In contrast, the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is a place where suffering ends and sweetness begins, represented by the “sweet-tasting (甘)” divine spring water (光泉水) . He emphasized that this knowledge is unique to his teachings .

He then highlighted the fundamental difference between the Old and New Testaments, particularly in the interpretation of commandments 6, 7, and 8 (murder, adultery, theft) . The Old Testament, followed by the Jewish people, advocated “an eye for an eye” (惡에는 惡) . However, he, as Jesus (예수), taught forgiveness and mercy for these transgressions . He explained that while Moses’s laws (모세의 말) focused on outward actions, his teachings extended to the intentions of the heart . For instance, merely looking at a woman with lust is considered adultery in his teachings, whereas Moses’s law only recognized the physical act . Similarly, coveting another’s possessions is theft in his view, but only actual stealing was considered a crime under Moses’s law . Thus, the New Testament’s scope of sin is broader, making it “more frightening” (더 무서운) than the Old Testament .

He clarified that while his teachings offer forgiveness, they are rooted in a deeper love, akin to a parent’s discipline for a child’s wrongdoing . He stated that during his time as Jesus (예수), the punishment for sins was lighter . However, in his current coming, the judgment will be strict, with only the righteous being saved, while others face severe trials . He prophesied a future where the sky burns and the Earth enters another ice age, during which he will arrive .

He reiterated that the “sweetness (甘)” of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” is brought by the ox (소), symbolizing his arrival as the “Ox-Crying Land (牛鳴聖地)” . He noted that Buddhist temples often depict ten oxen (十牛圖), symbolizing the search for the ox, and that the arrival of the ox signifies the end of Buddhism’s era . He played the sound of an ox crying, asserting that this “ox-crying sound (소울음소리)” emanates from the main palace (본궁) of the Sky Temple (하늘궁), which is one of the Ten Auspicious Sites (十勝地) . He contrasted this with Jerusalem (예루살렘), which lacks such divine spring water (光泉水) and is a barren land . He emphasized that the Sky Temple (하늘궁) is the true “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” city, where sweet water flows abundantly . He described how the divine spring water (光泉水) at the Sky Temple (하늘궁) emerges from beneath a tree where the twelve disciples (열두 제자) are, observed by the White Palace Stone (白宮石) . He noted that the elephant’s head (코끼리 대가리) on the White Palace Stone (白宮石) is positioned towards the spring, as if to drink the water . He warned against underestimating the God-man (神人), as his teachings are prophetic and profound .

10. The Power of the God-man and the Principle of Interdependent Origination
    Huh Kyung-young recounted a personal experience from his youth when he touched an electric wire, feeling a jolt of 30 volts . He explained that touching a 300 million-volt wire would instantly disintegrate the body . He then connected this to the human heart, which operates on electrical signals sent from the White Palace (白宮), and how these signals can be cut off, causing cardiac arrest .

He then referenced the biblical story of Paul (바울), who was struck blind by a blinding light (光線) of millions of volts, not thousands, on the road to Damascus . He explained that this light was so intense that it caused Paul’s blindness for three days . He asserted that if he, as the God-man (神人), were to appear in his full divine light (光線), everyone would be blinded and collapse . He explained that he deliberately suppresses his divine light (光線), allowing it to emanate through his words and mind, healing people without causing harm . He contrasted this with Paul’s experience, where he alone was blinded, leading him to realize the reality of Jesus (예수) and become a key figure in spreading Christianity .

Huh Kyung-young then introduced the principle of “This exists, therefore that exists (此生故彼生),” emphasizing that nothing exists without a cause or connection . He asserted that the God-man (神人) would not be present without a reason . He urged the audience to abandon the mindset of “self-benefit, harm to others (自利他害)” and instead embrace “self-benefit, benefit to others (自利利他)” . He acknowledged that “self-harm, benefit to others (自害他利),” or the Bodhisattva practice (菩薩行), exemplified by Kim Gyo-gak (金喬閣) who sacrificed his own well-being for others, is difficult for ordinary people . He cited examples of missionaries who sacrifice their lives for others, comparing them to Kim Gyo-gak’s self-sacrifice (殺身成仁) .

He then read a letter from a follower, Kim Do-young, which he deemed the “grand prize” among all the letters written to the White Palace Stone (白宮石) . The letter expressed profound gratitude for the God-man (神人), for life, nature, Elixir Milk (不老油), Elixir Ginseng (不老山蔘), and the opportunity to go to the White Palace Heaven (白宮天國) . The follower pledged to live virtuously, accumulate merit, and raise their spiritual level . Huh Kyung-young emphasized that such gratitude elevates one’s spiritual level .

The lecture concluded with promotional songs for the Sky Temple (하늘궁), performed by various individuals, including Archangels . The songs praised the Sky Temple (하늘궁) as the “White Palace Station (白宮 정거장)” where the heavenly God-man (天神) resides, and where dragons play with wish-fulfilling pearls (如意珠), phoenixes embrace eggs, and golden roosters embrace eggs . One song, “Why Not Reconcile,” delivered a philosophical message of peace and reconciliation . Another song, “Sky Temple Hit the Jackpot (대박났네 하늘궁),” celebrated the blessings and prosperity associated with the Sky Temple (하늘궁) . A speaker shared a testimony of a man who received unexpected unemployment benefits and turned 600,000 won into 4.79 million won through overseas investments after engaging with the Sky Temple’s (하늘궁) online content . Huh Kyung-young concluded by emphasizing the importance of understanding the difference between the “a thousand hardships and ten thousand sufferings (千辛萬苦)” city of Jerusalem (예루살렘) and the “bitterness ends, sweetness comes (苦盡甘來)” city of the Sky Temple (하늘궁), the New Jerusalem (새 예루살렘)

Why is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea? The Heavenly Palace is the New Jerusalem because it is the “bitterness ends, sweetness comes” (고진감래) place, unlike the old Jerusalem, which is the “thousand hardships, ten thousand sufferings” (천신만고) place.

1. Introduction to the Heavenly Palace and the New Year
   The speaker welcomes attendees to the last Saturday lecture of the year, emphasizing the divine purpose of the Heavenly Palace and the importance of confidence in the coming year.

The speaker welcomed attendees to the last Saturday lecture of the year, acknowledging their hard work throughout the year .
The Divine One (신인님) came to Earth from heaven to solve global issues like disease, famine, and nuclear war, and to guide ten million people to Baekgung Heaven .
Attendees who have received blessings and the Holy Spirit from the Divine One should live with confidence and vigor in the new year .
The 1472nd Saturday lecture by the Divine One, Huh Kyung-young, was then introduced .

1.1. Floral Offerings and Symbolic Colors
Three groups offered flowers, with the speaker noting the symbolic colors, especially yellow for Saturday and Korea’s central position.

Three teams presented flowers at the lecture .
Yang Jung-sook from Seogwipo, Jeju Island, offered white orchids to celebrate the Divine One’s birth, symbolizing purity .
Park Hyun-sook and Lee Soo-yeon from Cheonan offered a beautiful yellow flower basket as a token of gratitude .
The Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, represented by Lee Yoo-seok, offered a yellow orchid pot to commemorate the Divine One’s birth .
The speaker noted that the flowers brought today were mostly yellow, except for the white orchids from Seogwipo .
Saturday is associated with the color yellow, or Hwang (황), which represents the central earth element .
Korea is considered the central earth (중앙 토), hence its association with yellow .
Other regions have different symbolic colors: China is white (west), America is blue (east), Russia is black (north), and Jeju Island is red (south) .
The central earth (토) element is crucial for harmony and balance, preventing conflict and promoting mutual growth .

1.2. The Principle of Returning to Earth and the Cycle of Life
Everything eventually returns to earth to be reborn, illustrating a profound natural principle.

All things, regardless of their initial form, eventually return to earth (흙) to transform into other substances .
This cycle, known as Wonhyeongijeong (원형이정), signifies that everything returns to its original state, like the seasons .
Returning to earth (토) is essential for regeneration .

1.3. Human Life’s Connection to Earth and the Mind-Body-Spirit Connection
As people age, they draw closer to the earth, and the mind and spirit eventually separate, with the mind influencing the body.

People who fail in business often return to their hometowns and visit their parents’ graves, symbolizing a return to the fundamental earth (토) .
As people age, they gradually approach the earth (흙), which is destined to cover them .
Eventually, the mind and spirit separate .
The mind, being yin and yang (음양), generates energy (기운) that influences the body, similar to how temperature differences create wind .
Understanding these natural principles, which should be learned in childhood, changes one’s perspective on the world .
Listening to the Divine One’s lectures, even if not immediately remembered, deeply influences the mind and body .
This influence can lead to spontaneous actions, like invoking Gwangche (광체) in critical moments to save lives .

1.4. The Body as a Shadow and the Nature of Reality
The human body is merely a shadow, emphasizing the ephemeral nature of physical existence.

The human body is described as a shadow (그림자), specifically the shadow of the sun .
This concept, expressed as Hwasinyeoilyeong (화신여일영), means “the transformed body is like a sun’s shadow” .
This understanding should make people view their lives as extraordinary .

2. The New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea
   The lecture’s central question is why the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace is in Korea, leading to a discussion of different levels of reality and the reliability of numbers.

The main topic of the lecture is: “Why is the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace in Korea?”

2.1. Levels of Reality: Hardware, Software, Mindware, Spiritware, and Heavenware
Reality can be categorized into different levels, from the physical to the divine.

The world can be understood in different layers of reality:
Hardware: The lowest level of the mental world, representing physical reality .
Software: A slightly higher level, involving programmed systems .
Mindware: The realm of thoughts and voices, which current science has not fully reached, though AI can react to them through software .
Spiritware: The spiritual realm .
Heavenware (Godware): The highest level, where the Divine One operates, far beyond human comprehension .

2.2. The Unchanging Nature of Numbers Versus the Deception of Words
Numbers are the only truly honest and unchanging aspect of reality, unlike words, which can be manipulated.

The most honest and unchanging thing in the world is numbers .
Numbers like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 0 never deceive .
Voice phishing deceives, but numbers themselves do not .
Many religious figures prefer numbers due to their honesty .
Everything else in the world changes, but numbers remain constant .
In contrast, words can be deceptive and misinterpreted .
The meaning of words can change based on pronunciation and context .
Religious figures, who doubt everything else, trust only numbers .
The 60-year cycle (60갑자) of the calendar, based on numbers, is unfailingly accurate .
Age cannot be deceived; every second brings one closer to death .

2.3. The Candle Analogy: Life’s Finite Nature and Ingenuity
Life is like a burning candle, and ingenuity can extend its duration, symbolizing the pursuit of knowledge.

Life is compared to a burning candle, with each second representing its gradual consumption .
The speaker shared a method from his youth to make a candle burn longer by wrapping it in newspaper .
This prevents the wax from flowing down, keeping the wick saturated and extending the burning time by about 20 times .
Wrapping the candle also prevents it from being extinguished by wind .
The speaker’s childhood studies by candlelight resulted in soot under his nose, indicating his dedication .

2.4. AI and the Digitalization of Knowledge
Artificial intelligence processes all knowledge as numbers, highlighting the fundamental role of numerical data.

Software can contain vast amounts of knowledge .
AI (Artificial Intelligence) processes all knowledge as numerical data, not as typed words .
Everything in the world is converted into digital numbers for AI input .
Personal identification, like resident registration numbers or barcodes, relies on numerical data rather than facial recognition or fingerprints .
All languages are converted into numbers for computer input in AI .
Self-driving cars rely on numerical inputs for their operations, ensuring accuracy and preventing errors .
Even human brain input is processed as numerical data .

2.5. The Year of the Blue Snake (Eulsa Year)
The upcoming year, Eulsa Year, is symbolically the year of the Blue Snake, representing a specific celestial sign.

The upcoming year is the Eulsa Year (을사년), which translates to the Blue Snake (청사년) .
Eul (을) and Sa (사) are symbols in the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches (천간지간) system, while Blue Snake (청사) represents the actual meaning .
Inputting these complex symbolic meanings into AI is challenging .

2.6. The Challenge of Explaining Heavenware to Hardware
Communicating divine concepts to those focused on physical reality is difficult but rewarding.

Explaining complex concepts to a general audience requires simplification, similar to a Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners .
The Divine One, who possesses Heavenware, finds it challenging to communicate with those operating at the Hardware (돌대가리, “stone-headed”) level .
The speaker humorously noted that fewer people at the Heavenly Palace mean more space and better treatment for attendees .
People at the Hardware level struggle to adapt to slight changes in information .
The speaker joked about the ease of living with a “hardware” woman versus the difficulty of living with a “clever” woman .
The character Eul (을) in Eulsa (을사) resembles a bird, adding another layer of symbolic meaning .

3. The New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace: Location and Significance
   The New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace is located in Korea, a place of spiritual significance, contrasting with the old Jerusalem.

3.1. Geographical Features of Jerusalem and the Heavenly Palace
The Heavenly Palace in Korea shares geographical characteristics with Jerusalem, emphasizing its elevated and authoritative position.

The question is posed: “Why did the Jerusalem Castle (예루살렘 성) come to the Heavenly Palace in Korea?”
The distance from Jerusalem to Jericho is about 30 km, with Jerusalem being 900-1000m above sea level and Jericho 200m below sea level, a significant elevation difference .
The Heavenly Palace in Korea is also located on high ground, about 400m above sea level, similar to Jerusalem’s elevated position .
Historically, castles like Goguryeo Wanggeomseong (고구려 왕검성) were built on high ground to convey authority, unlike flatland structures like China’s Forbidden City (자금성) or Seoul’s Hanseong (한성) .
Traditional Korean houses built on elevated platforms (축대) also convey a sense of authority and importance .

3.2. The Story of Kim Gyo-gak (Jijang Bosal) and His Legacy
The story of Kim Gyo-gak, a Korean monk who became a revered Jijang Bosal in China, illustrates the spiritual power of the Korean people.

Kim Gyo-gak (김교각), a Korean monk, became the revered Jijang Bosal (지장보살) in China .
Jijang (지장) means “earth store” (땅 지, 감출 장), referring to his act of hiding his body in the earth .
Kim Gyo-gak was a tall man (2 meters) with large feet, which made him stand out among the shorter Chinese monks .
He was highly respected for his virtuous conduct and generosity, giving away all his possessions, even his clothes, to the poor .
To avoid shame after giving away his clothes, he dug a hole and hid his body in the earth, leaving only his head exposed, which is why he is called Jijang Bosal .
Upon his death, he requested that his body be left for three months, and if it did not decompose, it should be preserved as a Dungsinbul (등신불), a mummified Buddha statue .
His body did not decompose, and he became the first of 16 Dungsinbul at Guhwasa Temple (구화사) in China, symbolizing his repeated reincarnations .
Guhwasa Temple attracts millions of tourists annually due to Kim Gyo-gak’s legacy .
This story demonstrates the spiritual excellence of the Korean people .

3.3. The Arrival of Heavenware and the Prophecy of Shakyamuni
The Divine One (Heavenware) comes from the Korean people, fulfilling Shakyamuni’s prophecy about the end of his teachings upon the arrival of Jesus.

The Heavenware (신인) comes from the Korean people, demonstrating their superior spiritual lineage .
Kim Gyo-gak, like the Dalai Lama, reincarnated 16 times before departing from Earth .
Shakyamuni Buddha prophesied that his teachings would become like a lamp without oil (기름 없는 등불) upon the arrival of Jesus (야소) .
This prophecy, Hasiyasorae Odomuyujideungya (하시야소래 오도무유지등야), refers to the Second Coming of Jesus in Korea .

3.4. The Limitations of Buddhist Teachings Versus the Power of Christianity
Buddhist concepts, though philosophical, lack the divine power of Christian principles, which are directly connected to Heaven.

The Eight Jewels of Buddhism (불교의 8가지 보석)—Jeonggak (정각), Yeolban (열반), Haetal (해탈), Bori (보리), Banya (반야), Sammae (삼매), Mua (무아), Seongbul (성불)—are difficult for humans to achieve and lack spiritual power .
In contrast, the Eight Christian Principles (기독교의 여덟 가지)—Prayer (기도), Salvation (구원), Blessing (축복), Holy Spirit (성령), Grace (은사), Resurrection (부활), Eternal Life (영생), Heaven (천국)—possess immense spiritual power .
Geungnak (극락), often translated as paradise in Buddhism, is distinct from Heaven (천국) .
Geungnak is a state of mind within the human world, not a separate realm .
Heaven is a distinct, external realm, not merely a state of mind .
Buddhist teachings are more akin to philosophy or psychology, focusing on controlling the mind, rather than a direct connection to an external divine world .
The speaker demonstrated the lack of power in the word Geungnak compared to Heaven .

3.5. The Deception of Old Religions and the Arrival of the Divine One
Old religions have misled humanity, but the Divine One’s arrival reveals the truth and offers salvation.

The Divine One’s arrival reveals the truth, exposing the falsehoods of old religions .
Before the Divine One’s coming, false teachings prevailed, leading many astray .
Humanity is likened to people drowning in the sea of religion, clinging to “life rafts” (판때기) that are actually false promises of Geungnak or Heaven .
Religious leaders are compared to ship captains and crew who abandon their passengers (humanity) in a storm, escaping on lifeboats while the ship (world) drifts .
These “saints” (성자) do not return to save humanity .

3.6. The Divine One’s Rescue Mission and the 10 Million Ropes
The Divine One arrives with a massive “spaceship” to rescue humanity, offering salvation through “ropes” of blessing.

The Divine One (Jesus) returns with a massive “spaceship” (비행접시) to rescue humanity from the “sea of suffering” .
Thousands, even billions, of ropes descend from the spaceship to pull people to safety .
These ropes symbolize the 10 million blessings (천만 개 밧줄) offered through the Divine One’s nameplate (축복 명패), allowing salvation even without direct interaction .
Those who shake the Divine One’s hand are especially blessed .

4. Overcoming Suffering: Greed, Anger, Ignorance, and the Path to Happiness
   The root of human suffering lies in greed, anger, and ignorance, which can be overcome by letting go of desires and embracing humility.

4.1. The Three Poisons (Samdok) and Three Evils (Samak)
Greed, anger, and ignorance are the root causes of suffering, leading to a cycle of distress.

The sea of suffering (고통의 바다) is caused by greed, anger, and ignorance (탐진치), known as the Three Poisons (삼독) and Three Evils (삼악) .
Giving in to anger immediately leads to these “three hells” (삼학도) .
All delusions and worries stem from greed (탐하는 마음) .
Letting go of greed eliminates suffering .

4.2. Letting Go of Greed and Embracing Humility for Happiness
True happiness comes from releasing material desires and adopting a humble, resilient mindset.

To overcome suffering, one must let go of greed (탐욕) .
For example, if a house is foreclosed, a couple should not fight but accept living in a small room or even a tent, starting anew .
Happiness comes from having the courage to live simply and humbly, knowing that basic needs can be met through kindness .
Pride (자존심) leads to hell .

4.3. The Difference Between Shakyamuni’s Philosophy and the Divine One’s Guidance
Shakyamuni offered philosophical guidance for the mind, while the Divine One provides spiritual energy and direction for the soul.

Shakyamuni was a philosopher who taught how to control the mind .
The Divine One speaks of the spiritual world and guides the soul .
While Shakyamuni’s teachings are not wrong, they lack the “fire” or “energy” (불, 기름, 생명 에너지) that the Divine One provides .
The Divine One is the one who provides the path .

4.4. The Three Learnings (Gyejeonghye) as a Cure for the Three Poisons
Buddhist teachings offer a remedy for greed, anger, and ignorance through discipline, meditation, and wisdom.

Shakyamuni taught that discipline, meditation, and wisdom (계정혜, Gyejeonghye) are the remedies for the “disease” of greed, anger, and ignorance (탐진치) .
These Three Learnings (삼학) are the “medicine” to cure these “fatal illnesses” .

4.5. Comparing the Ten Commandments of Christianity and Buddhism
The Ten Commandments in Christianity and Buddhism differ significantly in their scope and emphasis.

The Ten Commandments of Christianity include prohibitions against other gods, idols, misusing God’s name, not observing the Sabbath, dishonoring parents, murder, adultery, theft, false witness, and coveting .
The prohibition against adultery (간음) applies to those with physical strength and youth .
The Ten Commandments of Buddhism include prohibitions against killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, false speech, divisive speech, harsh speech, idle talk, greed, anger, and ignorance .
The first three (killing, stealing, sexual misconduct) relate to physical actions .
The next four (false speech, divisive speech, harsh speech, idle talk) relate to speech .
The last three (greed, anger, ignorance) are the Three Poisons (탐진치) .

5. The Evolution of Law: Old Testament vs. New Testament and the Divine One’s Judgment
   The Divine One explains the shift from the strict, retributive laws of the Old Testament to the forgiving, yet more encompassing, laws of the New Testament, and his own ultimate judgment.

5.1. Old Testament’s Retribution vs. New Testament’s Forgiveness
The Old Testament demanded strict punishment, while the New Testament introduced forgiveness and mercy.

The Old Testament (구약) prescribed severe punishments for crimes like murder, adultery, and theft, such as death by stoning or cutting off limbs .
The New Testament (신약), brought by Jesus, advocated for forgiveness (용서) and mercy .
Jesus challenged the stoning of an adulterous woman by saying, “Let the one among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone” .
This demonstrated that all humans are sinners and lack the right to condemn others .

5.2. The Role of Religious Leaders in Jesus’ Death and the Divine One’s Current Situation
Religious leaders, not Roman authorities, were responsible for Jesus’ crucifixion, mirroring how the Divine One is perceived today.

Jesus was crucified not by Roman authorities, but by the Jewish religious leaders (유대 종교 지도자) who felt threatened by his teachings .
These leaders, stuck in mannerism (매너리즘), were more concerned with their own power and “building their own castles” than with the true Messiah .
They accused Jesus of blasphemy against Mosaic Law (모세의 율법) .
Similarly, the Divine One today faces opposition from religious leaders who label him a cult leader, even though he does not challenge political powers .

5.3. The Divine One’s Suffering: “A Thousand Hardships, Ten Thousand Sufferings” (Cheonsinmangu)
The Divine One endured immense suffering, fulfilling a prophecy of hardship before sweetness.

The Divine One experienced “a thousand hardships, ten thousand sufferings” (천신만고), enduring countless bitter and spicy experiences .
This period of intense suffering is characterized by “a thousand spicy tastes and ten thousand bitter tastes” .
This suffering is a prerequisite for the arrival of “bitterness ends, sweetness comes” (고진감래) .

5.4. The Contrast Between Old Jerusalem (Cheonsinmangu) and New Jerusalem (Gojingamrae)
Old Jerusalem represents a place of suffering, while the Heavenly Palace in Korea is the New Jerusalem, a place of sweetness and joy.

Jesus’ first coming was a time of Cheonsinmangu, leading to his death on the cross .
The Divine One’s second coming is the era of Gojingamrae, where bitterness ends and sweetness begins .
The character for sweetness (감) in Gojingamrae (고진감래) resembles a cow’s head, symbolizing the Divine One’s arrival as a cow (소) .
This refers to the prophecy that the Divine One will come as a Gichuksaeng (기축생), born in the year of the ox .
The Heavenly Palace is the place where the “sound of a cow’s cry” (소울음 소리) is heard, signifying the New Jerusalem .
The Heavenly Palace has Gwangcheonsu (광천수), a sweet spring water, unlike the old Jerusalem, which lacks such water .
Children prefer this sweet water over regular water, indicating its unique quality .
The Old Jerusalem is the Cheonsinmangu Castle (천신만고성), a place of suffering, while the Heavenly Palace is the Gojingamrae Castle (고진감래성), the New Jerusalem .
Old Jerusalem continues to be a place of conflict and sorrow, with three mosques fighting within its walls and a Wailing Wall (통곡의 벽) .
In contrast, the Heavenly Palace is a place of joy and celebration, with no Wailing Wall but rather a “wall of joy” (환희의 벽) and “joyful spring water” (즐거운 광천수) .
The descendants of those who killed Jesus continue to mourn at the Wailing Wall, while the followers of the Divine One sing and rejoice .
Therefore, current leaders and religious figures should heed the Divine One’s words .

5.5. The Superior Feng Shui of the Heavenly Palace in Korea
The Heavenly Palace boasts exceptional feng shui, making it a superior spiritual location compared to other regions.

The Heavenly Palace has excellent feng shui (풍수), surpassing even the location of Kim Gyo-gak’s Dungsinbul in China .
China’s feng shui is poor due to its geographical limitations .
China’s access to the Pacific Ocean is blocked by Korea, Japan’s Senkaku Islands, Taiwan, and the Philippines, limiting its maritime development .
This geographical constraint contributes to poverty and the need for communism .
China’s lack of open sea access hindered its shipbuilding industry compared to Korea, which is surrounded by three seas and has direct access to the Pacific .
Therefore, China cannot achieve global dominance due to its unfavorable feng shui .
The United States, in contrast, has excellent feng shui with vast ocean access on multiple sides, including the Pacific, Atlantic, and Caribbean, making it a wealthy nation .
The U.S. controls numerous islands in the Pacific, expanding its maritime territory to 100 times that of China .
However, the U.S. lacks the “central earth” (중앙토) quality of Korea .
Korean soil is rich and fertile, producing abundant crops, unlike the less potent soil of the U.S. .
Therefore, the Divine One (Jesus) comes to the Heavenly Palace in Korea, the central earth .

5.6. The Ten Auspicious Sites (Sipseungji) of the Heavenly Palace
The Heavenly Palace is a Sipseungji, a place of extraordinary spiritual power and auspicious feng shui, unlike Israel.

The Heavenly Palace is a Sipseungji (십승지), a place of great auspiciousness, unlike Israel, which is barren and lacks water .
A true auspicious site has abundant spring water .
The Heavenly Palace is located on Goryeongsan Mountain (고령산), which possesses four auspicious feng shui formations :
Manjangtongsolhyeong (만장통솔형): “Ten thousand generals commanding” – a place for unifying the world .
Cheonsindanjwahyeong (천신단좌형): “Heavenly god seated on an altar” – where a heavenly god sits .
Biryongseungcheonhyeong (비룡승천형): “Flying dragon ascending to heaven” – a dragon ascending to heaven .
Mokdanmangaeyeong (목단만개형): “Peonies in full bloom” – peonies blooming abundantly .
The Heavenly Palace also includes Gaemyeongsan Mountain (개명산), which has three auspicious feng shui formations :
Yongjuhuironghyeong (용주희롱형): “Dragon playing with a wish-fulfilling pearl” .
Bonghwangporanhyeong (봉황포란형): “Phoenix embracing an egg” .
Cheongeumchulgu형 (천금출구형): “Heavenly gold emerging from a turtle” .
The lecture hall itself is part of three more auspicious formations :
Geumgyeporanhyeong (금계포란형): “Golden rooster embracing an egg” .
Biseuljechulhyeong (비슬제출형): “Emperor emerging with a pipa and geomungo” – symbolizing the Heavenly Emperor (하늘의 황제) speaking through music and words .
Sipjeondogahyeong (십전도가형): “Ten perfect ways of the Taoist family” – representing Jesus’ teachings and the establishment of a lineage .
These Ten Auspicious Sites (십승지) are proof that the Heavenly Palace is the New Jerusalem .

6. The Divine One’s Ultimate Judgment and the Future of Humanity
   The Divine One will bring a final judgment, leading to a new era for humanity, emphasizing the importance of recognizing his presence and teachings.

6.1. The Contrast Between Old Jerusalem and the Heavenly Palace
The Divine One reiterates that Old Jerusalem is a place of suffering, while the Heavenly Palace is the New Jerusalem, a place of sweetness and joy.

The Cheonsinmangu Castle (천신만고성) is Jerusalem, a place of continuous suffering and tears .
The Gojingamrae Castle (고진감래성) is the Heavenly Palace, the New Jerusalem, where bitterness ends and sweetness comes .
The “sweetness” (감) in Gojingamrae (고진감래) is symbolized by the cow’s head, representing the Divine One’s arrival .
This knowledge, revealed by the Divine One, is crucial for understanding his presence .

6.2. The Difference Between Old and New Testament Laws and the Divine One’s Judgment
The Divine One’s teachings, though seemingly lenient, are more profound and lead to a stricter ultimate judgment than the Old Testament.

The Old Testament (구약) and New Testament (신약) differ in their approach to commandments, particularly regarding murder, adultery, and theft .
The Old Testament (Judaism) follows “an eye for an eye,” demanding retribution for evil .
The New Testament (Christianity) advocates for forgiveness and love .
While the Divine One’s teachings emphasize forgiveness, they are ultimately more “frightening” than Mosaic Law .
Mosaic Law only considers actions as sins .
The Divine One’s teachings consider even thoughts, such as lustful glances or coveting, as sins .
Therefore, the scope of sin is broader under the Divine One’s teachings .
However, while the New Testament offered lighter punishment (forgiveness), the Divine One’s current judgment will be strict .
Those deemed “bad” will be left for judgment, leading to a period of immense suffering on Earth .

6.3. The Divine One’s Arrival as the “Cow” and the End of Buddhism
The Divine One’s arrival as the “cow” (소) signifies the end of the Buddhist era, as prophesied in Buddhist texts.

The “sweetness” (단맛) of Gojingamrae (고진감래) is brought by the cow (소) .
The Divine One is known as Umyungseongji (우명성지) and Useongjae (우성재), meaning he comes as a cow, a prophecy known in the East .
Buddhist temples often feature the Ten Ox Herding Pictures (십우도 or 심우도), which depict the search for the ox .
The arrival of the ox (소) signifies the end of Buddhism, as the purpose of searching for it is fulfilled .

6.4. The Heavenly Palace as the “Crying Cow Land” (Umyeongji) and the Source of Miraculous Water
The Heavenly Palace is the prophesied Umyeongji, where miraculous spring water flows, confirming its status as the true New Jerusalem.

The Heavenly Palace is the Umyeongji (우명지), the “crying cow land,” where the sound of a cow’s cry is heard .
This Umyeongji is one of the Ten Auspicious Sites (십승지) .
Only at this site does Gwangcheonsu (광천수), miraculous spring water, flow abundantly, unlike Jerusalem, which lacks such water .
The Divine One emphasizes that the Heavenly Palace is the true “castle” (성) .
The Gojingamrae Castle (고진감래성) is where bitterness ends and sweetness comes, symbolized by the flowing sweet water .
The Divine One avoids barren places like Jerusalem, where he suffered in his previous incarnation .
At the Heavenly Palace, water flows naturally from every valley and hotel, with Gwangcheonsu emerging from beneath a tree surrounded by twelve disciples, observed by the Baekgungseok (백궁석) .
The Baekgungseok, shaped like an elephant’s head, points towards the Gwangcheonsu, symbolizing its desire for the water .

6.5. The Divine One’s Power and the Danger of Underestimation
The Divine One possesses immense power, capable of blinding those who witness it directly, yet he moderates it for humanity’s sake.

Underestimating the Divine One is a grave mistake .
His teachings are not from conventional education but are prophecies .
The Divine One has been lecturing for 40 years, sharing vast knowledge .
He recounts an experience from his youth where touching a 30V electric wire caused a flash, but a 300 million V wire would instantly disintegrate the body .
The human heart is controlled by electrical signals from Baekgung (백궁), which can be cut off, causing cardiac arrest .
The Divine One refers to Paul’s (바울) blinding experience on the road to Damascus, where a flash of light, millions of volts strong, caused temporary blindness .
The Divine One moderates his divine light (광선) to prevent people from being blinded or collapsing in his presence .
He allows his light to emanate through his words and mind, healing people without overwhelming them .
This controlled manifestation of power is a difficult act, done to preserve human life .
Paul’s experience led him to realize Jesus’ reality and become a key figure in spreading Christianity .

7. Principles for Living: Cause and Effect, Self-Benefit and Other-Benefit
   The lecture concludes with principles for living, emphasizing cause and effect, and the importance of actions that benefit both oneself and others, or even self-sacrifice for others.

7.1. The Principle of Cause and Effect (Chasaenggopisaeng)
Everything has a cause and effect, meaning nothing happens without reason.

The principle of Chasaenggopisaeng (차생고피생) means “this arises, therefore that arises,” or “this exists, therefore that exists” .
This implies that nothing happens without a cause or connection .
The Divine One’s presence is not without reason .

7.2. Principles of Action: Self-Benefit, Other-Benefit, and Self-Sacrifice
Actions should ideally benefit both oneself and others, with self-sacrifice being the highest form of altruism.

One should avoid Jari-tahae (자리타해), actions that benefit oneself but harm others .
Instead, one should strive for Jari-ita (자리이타), actions that benefit both oneself and others .
The highest form of action is Jahae-tari (자해타리), or Bodhisattva practice (보살행), where one harms oneself for the benefit of others .

Dec. 28, 2024 Episode 1472 Why is the New Jerusalem the Korean Sky Palace?

Nice to meet you. Oh my, the sound of my name being called has become quite quiet. Oh my, what color were the flowers you brought today? All three are yellow. Who brought the white one? So, Seogwipo is white. Saturday is yellow in terms of color. It is the color of azure. We have to view the Korean Peninsula as the Central Earth. Since it is the Central Earth, it is yellow, yellow. What color is the West? China is white. What color is the United States? It is blue, isn’t it? Russia is black. Then, the South, Jeju Island is red, isn’t it? And then, in the center of the Korean Peninsula, it is yellow. We are the White-Clothed People, but in reality, in terms of color, it is the Central Earth. When we say Fire, Water, Wood, Metal, and Earth, that Earth is the color that creates harmony. You know that. Without Earth, it becomes conflict. I mean, Earth creates mutual generation.

So, no matter how well water flows or how well things thrive, eventually they must return to the soil to become different substances again. When they return to the soil, when they return to the earth, they become different substances, don’t they? No matter how mottled the colors of tree leaves may be—red, blue, green, or whatever—if they return to the soil and then reappear, they can change to a different color. They must pass through the earth. That is the profound principle. That is called Wonhyeong-ijeong (Original Formation, Origin, Origin, and Rectification). Therefore, Wonhyeong-ijeong ultimately means that spring, summer, autumn, and winter all return to the original source, the source of regeneration. That is why one must return to the earth to be regenerated.

So, you’ve seen people who failed in business always go back to their hometown to visit their mothers and fathers’ graves. The reason they do that is because they are returning to the soil, to the fundamental basis of earth. They are seeking it out. That is why, as a person ages, the soil gets closer and closer. The soil slowly comes toward them, gradually. And so, the soil they must be covered by is determined. It is decided where they will go and to which soil they will go, isn’t it? That is coming for you. The soil is coming to cover you. It is coming, and the point is approaching when our mind and soul will separate.

The mind merely fills the soul; the mind is Yin and Yang. That is why the word for mind is the character for “energy” (氣). Therefore, energy originally arises only through Yin and Yang. If one side is cold and the other is hot, wind begins to blow. That is the energy being activated. Our bodies are the same. Our bodies are where energy flows back and forth within them. That is why we sometimes feel a strong breeze or aches and pains. So, it changes according to the energy. Therefore, you all actually need to realize this nature—this Original Form, the Principle, and the Righteousness—during elementary school. You must understand the principles of nature. Then, the way we see the world will change dramatically. So, coming close to a divine being and listening to their conversations, or watching a lot of YouTube—that is amazing.

Even if you can’t remember it right now, it’s all inside your head. You can’t remember everything I’ve told you. But it’s all inside your head. It’s all inside and affecting your body. It’s affecting you without you even realizing it. If you don’t know what to say—”Enter the light body”—but something suddenly happens, the words “Enter the light body” might come out. Because you heard it, in that moment, the words “Enter the light body” might suddenly come out of your mouth without you realizing it—that’s how you can save a person, isn’t it? So, we are the One Shadow, the One Shadow. Therefore, our body is a single shadow.

Our body is fire. Fire. What is our body? Incarnation. What is one? It’s the shadow, the spirit. Then you can write this one (一) as the sun (日).

Transformation into a sun shadow

Our bodies, our bodies… you see, our bodies are the sun’s shadow. We are nothing but a shadow. We can be just a single shadow. We can be a single shadow, but we are the sun’s shadow. That means our bodies can be just a single shadow. But in reality, the body is merely the sun’s shadow. That is why you should find the fact that we live to be incredibly fascinating. Today’s title is the New Jerusalem… Why the New Jerusalem?

Why is the New Jerusalem called the Korean Sky Palace?

You all call the world “hardware,” right?

1. hardware

This is the lowest level. It’s a low-level mental world.

It’s the same with science. What comes after hardware? This one is a bit high.

1.hard ware
2.soft ware
3.mind ware

So, what’s next? You said it was mindware. Mindware. Has science reached mindware yet? It hasn’t, has it? Machines do react to our thoughts, voices, and things like that, but they created software and built AI into it. Remember the game where the AI ​​won against Jo Chi-won? That means you input human language into the AI. So, the most honest thing in this world—the one thing that never changes—is there. What is it? Something that doesn’t change. There is only one honest thing in this world that never changes that we can trust. It’s numbers. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. Do numbers deceive us? I mean, 0 is 0, so do numbers deceive us? Numbers can never deceive. Do you write down a number, and it completely changes to trick you? It doesn’t deceive.

Voice phishing deceives us, but numbers do not. They are honest. That is why many clergy members like numbers. Because they are honest. That is why priests and nuns like numbers the most. Why? Numbers don’t lie, but everything else keeps changing. Have you ever seen numbers change? No, have you ever seen 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 deceive us? They don’t deceive us, do they? But everything else changes. Young people get old, old people die. Does it change or not? Everything changes, but numbers do not. Have they ever deceived us? No. I mean, money is in a bank account, but have the numbers there been completely deceived and changed? Numbers don’t. That’s right, isn’t it? So, numbers do not deceive. However, we are deceived by letters.

You can say, “Father goes into the bag.” What does Father go into a bag? Father goes into the room. These letters deceive us. We can misread them. Numbers don’t deceive us like that. Letters change depending on how we speak—how we open our mouths, whether we raise or lower our voices. But do numbers deceive us? They can’t, can they? That is why religious figures doubt the world the most, yet the only thing they doubt is numbers. So, this year and next year are indeed the Year of the Snake, aren’t they? Does the Year of the Snake deceive us? It doesn’t. The 60-year cycle repeats exactly as it is, without a single mistake. Isn’t that right? That is why we are helplessly bound to go to our deaths.

You can’t just trick someone into thinking they’re 20 when you’re actually 50. Can you trick someone by saying, “I’m 50, but please make me look 20”? You can’t. So, without any room for error, every single second, every single second, is moving toward the grave for us. It’s similar to when I light a candle while studying. You think, “This candle will last for a few hours.” Then it starts burning down. Eventually, the candle burns out completely. I’ve done quite a bit of research to prevent the candle from burning. So, you have to wrap it in newspaper. If you wrap it in newspaper, the melted wax drips down and the candle disappears. But if the wax doesn’t drip down, the wick never burns down. What I mean is, if the melted wax drips down, the wick goes down. Consequently, the candle shrinks. However, if you wrap the candle tightly in newspaper, it never shrinks. It lasts a very long time. Why? Because the melted wax stays pooled there. It pools there, so the wick doesn’t burn. The wick is always wet. So, it keeps burning until the melted wax on top is completely gone.

But if the liquid just drips down, the candle burns up rapidly. How much does that cost? I mean, when I was young and studying in the mountains, the flame would go out easily. I couldn’t study without a candle. Because the wind blows inside the tent, only the candlelight would go out quickly. So, I would wrap the candle in newspaper. If I wrapped it tightly and secured it with a rubber band, the newspaper wouldn’t catch fire. The melted wax inside the newspaper candle just stays trapped in the newspaper. So it burns about 20 times longer—about 20 times longer. That means you don’t have to spend money on candles. And another thing is, if you use newspaper, the flame won’t go out no matter how much the wind blows. If the melted wax just drips down, you know. Then only the wick is left, all slick and crisp.

Then the wind would just suddenly go out. But with the newspaper propping it up and the candle sitting there, no matter how hard the wind blew, the oil supply was good. It didn’t go out. Then it was good for studying, wasn’t it? So when I came back to the classroom in downtown school after studying and looked in the mirror, the area under my nose was pitch black. The other kids didn’t have that. Why? Because they studied. The candle soot would get into their noses. They would inhale that while studying. So, when we were young, I really did study a lot under the candlelight. All of this is studying under the candlelight.

So, we can put a lot of such knowledge into software. We can. That is why Go is made up of numbers. Everything in AI is input as numbers. Is that right? Your knowledge isn’t typed in. It is all converted into numbers and digitized. AI is input as numbers. You could say that everything is numbers. AI is what has converted everything on this planet into numbers and stored them. Would you agree? A tremendous amount of numbers goes into it. Your resident registration number is also numbers, isn’t it? Then it shows who that person is. It doesn’t come out by inputting your face. It doesn’t come out based on your fingerprints. There is your number, your barcode. Just that barcode pops out, identifying what kind of product it is. Isn’t that right?

So, AI is when all language is converted into numbers and input into a computer. It is artificial intelligence. It tells you, “This is how this should operate.” This is achieved by converting things into numbers and embedding them into AI. It is the second type of software. It doesn’t cheat on numbers. So, would an artificial car be able to cheat? Would that AI car, that autonomous vehicle, cheat? Numbers are input. So, based on those numbers, when the car sees something, it thinks, “Ah, that is number 3.” Then, it operates smoothly and efficiently. What enters the human brain is also converted into those numbers. You need to keep that in mind for reference.

Next, mind ware isn’t a number. Mind ware isn’t a number. What else did I say existed besides mind ware? There was spirit ware.

1.hard ware
2.soft ware
3.mind ware
4.spirit ware
5.Heaven (God) ware

Spirit ware. What is this? What is spirit ware? It’s spiritual ware. What did I say came next? You have to capitalize only this H, this Heaven. You can’t write it like this. Heaven means sky. For instance, when you say God, you can’t write it like this. Heaven ware is God ware. So, the divine-man moves from here. The divine-man moves from here, but your minds only go as far as here (1, 2). Each step is incredibly frightening. So, what year is it in a few days? What year is the Eulsa Year? Isn’t this the Eulsa Year? You write it like this.

Then what is this Eulsa Year? It’s the Year of the Snake. In other words, the Eulsa Year is simply a blue snake. The Blue Snake, the Cheongsa Year.

Yin Wood Snake(乙巳, 을사) = Green Snake(靑蛇, 청사)

The year Eulsa is the Blue Snake. It is the Year of the Blue Snake. So, next year is the Year of the Blue Snake. It is the Blue Snake. The year Eulsa is a symbol. Gap, Eul, Byeong, Jeong—these are symbols. When we say Eulsa, Ja, Chuk, In, Myo, Jin, Sa, O, Mi, Sin, Yu, Sul, Hae, the symbols are the symbols, and the ‘Blue’ at the end represents the meaning. So, when inputting this into the internet, or into AI, it becomes complicated. The difficulty lies in whether you input it as meaning or sound, and that is what makes the input process difficult.

The year Eulsa is the year of Cheongsa. That is how it should be entered, but the character ‘Sa’ is different, isn’t it? The one behind it is the character for snake. The character on this side is the ‘Sa’ used as a symbol; that one isn’t an actual snake. As for ‘Eul,’ that one means bird, but it is the character for bird. So, that is just a set order for the sequence Gap, Eul, Byeong, and Jeong. Isn’t it a set order based on the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches? Since it is a Heavenly Stem and followed by an Earthly Branch, it is determined that way; that is a symbol. That is the method for inputting it into AI. Then, our actual meaning is the one behind it, Cheongsa. That is the actual meaning we know. It means a blue snake.

When I explain things like that to you guys, I have to explain them in a very simplified way. So, if I went to Harvard and there were people who could understand what I was saying, I wouldn’t need to do it like that—I could just go at it, go, go, go. Wouldn’t it be difficult for a Harvard professor to teach kindergarteners? But I am a blockhead who possesses Heaven-ware and talks to hardware, hardware, hardware. Hardware is a blockhead, a blockhead. Trying to talk to a blockhead—does that even work? Still, there is some fun to it. What are the advantages if fewer people come to the Sky Palace to listen to lectures? No, I’m asking the hardware. What could be the advantages? The fact that there is plenty of space. So, it’s simple. The hardware just can’t answer this quickly.

When few people visit the Sky Palace, the space is spacious. Also, the treatment changes. If there are many people, you won’t receive good treatment later on. The fewer people there are, the better you are treated. Imagine a shop where no customers came for a week, and then one person showed up. They are treated like royalty. But then a thousand people flock in a single day. During the day, money and everything else goes out the window; you’re just so frustrated you could die. “Look at this. Please follow the order. It’s nice that you’re buying things, but don’t I need to make a living too?” They act like that and eventually lose their temper, telling you to stand in line. But imagine one person coming in a week. The treatment changes, doesn’t it? Yet, when you ask that, this hardware doesn’t answer. Isn’t that absolutely ridiculous? We call that “hardware.” If you change the content even slightly, it doesn’t understand. If you deviate from the content even a little, it doesn’t understand.

If I were told to marry and live with a woman like that, it would be a piece of cake. Oh, well, it’s simple. Live with a woman with that kind of “hardware,” and that would be a piece of cake. But living with a woman who is good at scheming—I’d rather die. It’s fun. If it were our director, he’d be kicked out in a day. Oh my, this is fun. So, when you delve into the content of that situation, it’s like this. There’s Eulmok, and Gapmok, and so on. But, Eulmok is Eulmok. If you look closely, it looks like a bird, doesn’t it? The character for bird, Eulmok. Oh my, this is interesting. So, why did this Jerusalem come to the Sky Palace in Korea? It looks like a castle, doesn’t it? There is no need to build a castle.

The distance from the city of Jerusalem down to the city of Jericho is about 30 km. 30 km is roughly the same distance as Gangnam in Seoul. However, the city of Jerusalem is 900 to 1,000 meters above sea level. The city of Jericho, on the other hand, is not at sea level; you have to go down 200 meters from the sea surface. So, there is a huge difference, isn’t there? There is a difference of 1,000 meters like this. That means there is a difference in terrain of that magnitude within a distance of about 30 ri. So, the city of Jerusalem is located on higher ground. That is why this place is also a bit high. There is a high spot here, about 400 meters above sea level.

If you look down there, the terrain keeps rising. You know how the village is located up there? The elevation is quite high. So, while it is about 15km from here to downtown Seoul, the elevation drops from here all the way to the city center. The city of Jerusalem has this kind of terrain. In that case, it is difficult to attach the word “fortress” to it. China’s Forbidden City is on flat land. But doesn’t it feel a bit strange to attach the word “fortress” to that? If you say Goguryeo’s Wanggeomseong, it looks like it is located on high ground, doesn’t it? That is how it really feels like a fortress. If you go to Namhansanseong, it is quite high. If you go to Bukhansanseong, it is quite high, isn’t it? But what about Hanseong? Hanseong refers to Seoul. In the past—what we call Seoul now—it was the Hanseong of the Joseon Dynasty. Hanseong is on flat land. Hanseong is on flat land, isn’t it?

Then it doesn’t feel like a castle. There are Namdaemun and Seodaemun, but there is no sense of entering a castle. However, a castle sits firmly on a high spot, and when viewed from a distance, it rises high up—that is what gives it the true feel of a castle. But they built castles all on flat land. They are just walls, not actual castles. That is why, when building a house—specifically a Hanok—a house built on flat land is not designed to exude authority. It is just a regular household home. However, if you look at pavilions or similar structures—not the grand palaces, but the slightly more substantial ones—the retaining walls are very high. If you visit the countryside, you’ll see that the retaining walls of larger houses are about a gil (a unit of height) tall. Yes, they are called chukdam. And if the children are not careful, they could fall. They didn’t install railings to prevent the chukdam from falling. That is how the elders of the old days did it.

And there are many times when children are running around on the veranda, backing up a bit, and falling down from the stone foundation. They fall from heights as high as an adult. Why are they built like that? When you open the main gate and step inside, the house needs to be built on top to have weight. It looks substantial when you look up a little, doesn’t it? That is why, if you look at the grand mansions—the big ones—the stone foundations are quite high, especially in Gyeongsang Province. You know, the foundations are high. Even the royal palace has stone foundations. However, the modest tiled houses in Seoul don’t have stone foundations. They are just built on flat ground, and those houses look lacking in authority.

There is a Korean who went to China and became a living Buddha, isn’t there? Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. That person is known as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. When people talk about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in China, they think of Monk Kim Gyo-gak. He is the monk who went over from Korea. He came to China and became the most famous Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Why did Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva become Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva? Well, Ksitigarbha is the character for “earth,” right? What comes next? It’s the character for “to hide.” He is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva

Then, regarding Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, isn’t Chijang Bodhisattva a man named Kim Gyo-gak? He is a man named Kim Gyo-gak, and he is 2 meters tall. He is really tall, isn’t he? He is 2 meters tall, but his shoes are twice the size of our shoes. He is really big. Such a man came to China, you see. He asked that Chinese monk if he could study with him, and the monk accepted him. He was accepted, and there, his conduct was so good.

Well, all the monks there just fell for him. He was so, so good to the neighborhood residents. The whole village worshipped him. Before they knew it, he became a god. So, in China, the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha is a real historical figure. Who is it? Kim Gyo-gak. Kim Gyo-gak. No, that surname is Kim, and he actually has a real name. Kim Gyo. You know what I mean.

Kim Gyo-gak

This monk, Kim Gyo-gak, is the Bodhisattva Jizo, and he is 2 meters tall. Since Chinese people are generally small, people wonder, “Is this a human or a Buddha?” When such a person arrived, he immediately caught everyone’s eye. However, the other monks were only half his height. So, naturally, he became known to the people.

But when he puts on the monk’s robe, does it have any weight to it? Since he is 2 meters tall, his posture looks a bit different, doesn’t it? Yet, when people look at that monk, they all react like this. That is why that monk took over China. The Bodhisattva of China. Why is he called the Bodhisattva of Ksitigarbha? Everyone who practices Buddhism knows the answer. There was a beggar, so he kept giving away his possessions until he had nothing left to give, so he took off his clothes and gave them away. Eventually, he even had his underwear taken away. Because he kept seeing a pitiful person. But later, people started coming in droves. He dug a hole in the ground and hid his body. Because he was naked. Oh, his penis was dangling and all that, so how could he stand there with people coming? Oh, so he dug a hole and left only his neck exposed. My goodness, that is the Bodhisattva of Ksitigarbha. He hid his body in the ground. He hid his body in the ground, but since he had taken off his clothes and given them all away to others, he must have felt ashamed. He still knew that shame. That is why he became known as the Bodhisattva of Ksitigarbha.

He hid his body in the ground. How much alms-giving did this person do? We need to know that and listen to it. But how would you input that into an AI? How would you put that into software you create? It would be difficult. That is why creating software is so difficult. So, while we can create things like that, we cannot create “mindware.” That is why Koreans are so amazing; they go to China and become gods. There are ten million Chinese tourists there every year. An enormous person came and said, “When you pass away, leave me in that back room for a month. Leave me there for three months. If I don’t rot, make me into a mummified Buddha statue just like that. Absolutely do not bury me. Do not cremate me. Make me into a mummified Buddha statue,” and so on. You understand what a mummified Buddha statue is.

Life-size Buddha

A “Dengsinbul” is just leaving the body exactly as it is attached.

So, this person became a life-sized Buddha. And so, 16 life-sized Buddhas emerged from over there. So, that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva means Monk Kim Gyo-gak is being reborn 16 times in a row. You understand what I mean. He was born 16 times at that temple, so there are 16 life-sized Buddhas. Isn’t that incredible? So, it wasn’t just the first one. He went back and said, “I will return sometime.” And then he came again. When he was dying, he said, “Leave me alone for three months.” He wouldn’t rot again. So, he gilded him again. He gilded him and kept him as he was; that 16 people, the sixteenth one, was the last. The life-sized Buddha went somewhere else. Do you understand what I’m saying? What temple is that? It is Guhwasa Temple, located in China.

The character for nine. It is the Jiuhua Temple in China. You must have heard of it. This temple called Jiuhua Temple, you see.

Jiuhua Temple(九華寺, 구화사)

This temple called Guhwasa attracts a tremendous number of tourists. You all need to know that much. When I was in elementary school—oh, right, middle school—I was at that temple, wasn’t I? Back then, when I was there, I researched that monk. There is a life-sized Buddha statue at Guhwasa named Kim Gyo-gak. His name is not Avalokitesvara, but Ksitigarbha. We call him Ksitigarbha here, but in the United States, Ksitigarbha is a real person, and he was from the Silla Dynasty.

So, no matter where in the world people go, they don’t realize how superior our people are. So, who comes from our people? It is Heaven Wear who comes. I mean, the one who can control Mind Wear, Spirit Wear, and Heaven Wear at will is coming to the Korean Peninsula. As for that Monk Kim Gyo-gak, he repeated the cycle of coming back to the afterlife 16 times, just like the Dalai Lama. After repeating it 16 times, he went somewhere else. He has not come to Earth anymore. So, what did they say? What did they say?

Shakyamuni foretold this. What did he say? No, Shakyamuni said that when Jesus comes, self-love will disappear. I explained that to you, didn’t I? What did he say? Hasiyasorae.

When did Yasu come? My Way is a lamp without origin.

Yaso is Jesus. When Jesus came, I was referring to the Second Coming of Jesus in the very future. I am talking about when the Second Coming of Jesus came to the Korean Peninsula. It was done like this. Hasiyasorae. I am talking about when this Jesus named Yaso came, when He came to the Korean Peninsula, this East. My Way is a lamp without oil. These are the eight jewels of Buddhism. Enlightenment, Nirvana, Liberation, Bodhi, Prajna, Samadhi, Non-self, and Buddhahood. Do you understand? Then this is the flower of Buddhism. You must attain Enlightenment by practicing Right View and following the Eightfold Path. So, is achieving this Enlightenment an ordinary matter? Nirvana goes without saying. I am saying that even if you are born as a human hundreds or tens of thousands of times in your lifetime, attaining Nirvana is difficult.

Will you attain liberation? Bodhi, Prajna Samadhi, Non-self, and Buddhahood—these are things humans cannot achieve. This is where I have come. Let’s see if you guys have any energy. These are the eight jewels of Buddhism. Jeonggak, Jeonggak (falls). Do you have any strength? No. Everyone, hold on. Hold the person next to you. Try to pull Jeonggak. Try saying Jeonggak. Does Jeonggak not fall? It does, doesn’t it? Nirvana, liberation, Prajna Samadhi, Non-self, and Buddhahood—they all lack strength, don’t they? But what are the eight things of Christianity? Prayer—do they fall? Salvation, blessing, gifts of the Holy Spirit, resurrection, eternal life, and heaven—do they fall? (They don’t fall). Now, in Buddhism, we call that Paradise. Paradise (falls). Does it have strength? Does Paradise have strength or not? Then why does Paradise lose its strength? Anyone who says Paradise is heaven is not in their right mind.

Paradise and Heaven are completely different places. Paradise exists within the human mind. It is not in the spirit. Paradise is what is enjoyed within the human mind. What is Heaven? It is in the sky, somewhere else entirely. It is not here, nor is it in our minds. It exists in another world. Paradise is not another world. Paradise is a world realized within our minds in this world. The Thirty-Three Heavens are all worlds formed within our minds. Do you understand? The idea that the Thirty-Three Heavens exist elsewhere is a complete lie. The world of Buddhism is not a concept of God. It is entirely a discipline that controls the human mind. It is philosophy.

So, while Buddhism is necessary in psychology, it has no relation to the external world itself. It has absolutely no connection to that heaven you are going to. So, let me show you the proof of heaven. Heaven, heaven (it doesn’t fall). Can you detach it? Try detaching it. Does it fall? It doesn’t fall, does it? But try saying “Pure Land.” Is Pure Land the same thing? It’s the opposite, isn’t it? You feel completely drained of energy, don’t you? So, even now, when you see people saying they want to go to Pure Land, they say they will attain rebirth in Pure Land—that is a misconception. That is why humans are teaching them this through my coming. If someone says Pure Land and heaven are different, they call them a madman. But the heavens ask.

Since there are no angels, how could they possibly ask? Only when a divine being arrives does it become clear which one is fake. Until I came, until I arrived, fakes were running rampant everywhere. Now that I have come and seen, Paradise is fake. Heaven is real. Come out or not? That is why you have no idea how many people were lost in a labyrinth by the religions of that primitive era. Now, what must you grab onto in that sea of ​​religion? You must grab onto a passing lifeboat to survive. You went up into the sea of ​​religion trying to survive, but good heavens, that is the path to death. You understand what I mean. So, imagine you are drowning and wandering in the sea of ​​religion—like you are on a boat going somewhere, and suddenly a storm arises, and the ship is on the verge of capsizing. The people on board are in complete panic, aren’t they? So, the captain and the crew working on the ship. Suddenly, they are nowhere to be seen.

I see there are lifeboats on the barge towing the ship. They secretly go down there and board them. They get on, leave the passengers behind, and all run away. That’s how it capsized just like the Sewol Ferry, and everyone died. So, do the general public know about this? They don’t. They are unaware, but these guys aren’t steering the ship; it’s about to capsize. Those technicians have a secret route, a path inside the ship. They all run towards the lifeboats, cut them off the ship, and run away. So, that ship is drifting in the sea. Those who ran away are the saints. Those who ran away are the saints. They all died, didn’t they? They ran away among themselves, didn’t they? And they left these 8 billion people adrift behind.

But the saints aren’t coming anymore. Will the saints return? You all—Jesus, Buddha, and all that—I believe Jesus has returned, but the line of saints isn’t. So who comes in the end? It is Jesus who comes. What do I bring? I bring a massive ship. I bring it and drop a rope down. The sharks see their faces change drastically, open their mouths, and lunge, but they all grab the rope and survive. But before I arrive, that ocean is this Earth right now. The 8 billion people are the real pilots, aren’t they? The saints have fled. Confucius and Mencius are the pilots of humanity. They abandon the ship and all run away.

But then, I appeared later. What appeared? An enormous flying saucer appeared. It floated up over the sea, and thousands of ropes came down. Billions of them just came down. They would probably lift them all up. How many ropes are there? Ten million. Ten million ropes are coming down. But even though ten million ropes were lowered, can you actually save a billion people? If ten million people give a blessing plaque, that’s it. You don’t even need to see me in person. This is your privilege. Anyone who shakes my hand is bursting with blessings.

So, you are unaware of that. You are currently wandering, swept away by the waves in that sea of ​​religion. Who does it always cling to? It clings to a board, and what is that board? It is religion. “Ah, this will guide me to paradise. It will guide me to heaven.” It is a total lie. This sea of ​​our suffering, our sea of ​​suffering. What do you call the cause of suffering? Isn’t it greed, hatred, and delusion?

Greed, anger, and delusion

Three poisons

The Three Evils—
greed, hatred, and delusion—are a sea of ​​suffering. We call these the Three Poisons. They are the Three Evils again. They are the Three Paths of Learning. Therefore, if you lose your temper, hatred, and delusion, you have already fallen into the Three Paths of Learning.

A man who lost his temper while fighting with his wife fell onto Samhakdo. However, there are those who fall, those who fall onto Samhakdo, and those who drink the three poisons. Is it better to fall, or is it better to drink?

You’re both going. This is Samhakdo. There are three hells here. Greed, hatred, and delusion. All afflictions and delusions stem from a greedy mind. If you just let go of greed, all afflictions disappear. So, you must be able to overcome any suffering that comes your way. What is that? You just need to let go of greed. Let’s say our house is up for auction. But the couple fights tooth and nail over it. It’s unnecessary. Let go of greed. You can just move to a single room. Go there and make a fresh start. Greed is unnecessary. Soon you’ll be in a coffin, and I’ll be in a coffin too, so why is a house so important? If a family can’t afford a rented room, you can go to the state-owned land over there and pitch a tent, and no one will pick a fight.

So, you need guts to be happy. Oh, honey, don’t worry. If we don’t have a house, let’s just go over there and pretend we’re two couples hiking. We can pitch a tent, make it a bit warm, bring those cardboard boxes to pack things up, and let hikers passing by give and take money—isn’t that all good? Just guard the mountain. If a forest fire breaks out, stop it. If you go down to get food, I’ll guard the house, and if I go down to get food, I’ll guard yours. Good, isn’t it? If a district office employee asks why you’re pitching a tent here, they’ll come over, take money out of their wallet, and give it to you. Say, “I have a terrible disease and was kicked out of the hospital, so I have no money. Do you have anywhere to go? What would you do? I’d have to set up a house here and live too. Your heart is my heart.” Then the employee will take out their wallet and tell you to buy some rice to eat. That’s how you see it—everyone is an angel. If you humble yourself, you won’t have any trouble making a living. That pride—inside, it’s hell.

So, what did Shakyamuni say about blocking this? Shakyamuni is a philosopher who governs our minds. What is a Divine Being? It is one who speaks of the spiritual world, governing the spirit. Is what Shakyamuni said wrong? It’s not wrong, but there is no fire, no fire. There is no oil. There is no life energy, understood? So, the Divine Being is the one who guides the way. Therefore, Shakyamuni is treating this greed, hatred, and delusion—this is a disease, a disease. What did he say is what cures this chronic disease of greed, hatred, and delusion? He said it is morality, concentration, and wisdom, didn’t he?

Greed, anger, and ignorance;
morality, concentration, and wisdom

Seongjehye is the medicine that cures greed, hatred, and delusion. So, using this Seongjehye, you catch this guy right away.

If this is a fatal disease, this guy is the cure. So, regarding this account, you all need to figure it out. Every religion has its own hierarchy. Then, let’s take a look at the hierarchy of Christianity. There are the Ten Commandments, aren’t there?

Christianity

1. Other than me
2. Idol
3. Profane
4. Sabbath
5. Disobedience to parents
6. Murder
7. Adultery
8. Theft
9. Lies
10. Neighbor

Here is the tenth: Do not covet your neighbor’s house. The ninth: Do not lie. The eighth: Do not steal. The seventh: Do not commit adultery. You need strength to commit adultery, too. This seventh point applies to those who have power. It does not apply to those who lack it. The time when you hear people say, “Let’s commit adultery,” is a good time. That is when you are young. Do not commit adultery. This also applies according to age. It does not apply to children. What is the sixth? Do not murder. The fifth is do not disobey your parents. It is written like this. What is the fourth? Keep the Sabbath. The third is do not take God in vain. Do not take God in vain. The second is do not serve idols. The first is do not serve any other gods before me.

But Buddhism has this too. Buddhism also has 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, doesn’t it? These are the Buddhist Ten Commandments. This is the Buddhist Ten Commandments, the Christian Ten Commandments. But what are the Buddhist Ten Commandments?

1. Killing

Do not kill. Do not kill. So, killing, stealing, sexual misconduct, lying, bad speech, bad speech, greed, hatred, and delusion—these are the 10. Then aren’t these just things we use all the time? Then the 10 ten of Buddhism are completely different from these 10. I am going to write them down and explain them all to you. Because, look closely.

Even after thousands of years, Christianity goes so far with this murder; that is where the difference between the Old and New Testaments lies. The Old Testament says, “Just kill the murderer. Just kill the adulterer, stone them to death. Cut off the arm of the thief.” Is that right or not? It goes like this: “Take revenge on your enemies without fail.” But when I came here, what did I say about this?

Forgive. Save the adulterer. Do not steal. You do it like this. Then, do you tell us to forgive everything or not? Forgive everything. It is just like in the Old Testament, when an adulterous woman came before me, I asked, “They will come before me and stone the adulterous woman to death; what do you think?” Didn’t I ask that? What did I say then?

“Let the one who is without sin strike. You have no right to kill a human being. The phrase ‘let the sinless strike’ implies that since you are a sinner yourself, who would strike that woman? The Old Testament dictates that even if you are a sinner, if you see another sinner, you must kill them. That is the Old Testament. The New Testament, however, implies that Moses did exactly that. This is what Moses brought over. But even when I came as Jesus, this principle still dominated Judea. The reason I was crucified and died was that I never attacked the Roman soldiers. Did I defy them? I never once spoke to a Roman soldier. A Roman soldier simply walked past me. Yet, the religious leaders of Judea—and the religious leaders in our country today—have fallen into a rut. While claiming to await the Second Coming of Jesus, they are completely out of their minds building their own fortresses. They sit there saying, ‘Just you wait, you bastard, for touching our fortress.’ That is what I mean.”

Do you think I would defy the military or the ruling power? I am not defying them; rather, it is these floating religious figures—the religious world—who killed me, Jesus. Is that right or wrong? Did Pilate say, “This man has committed no crime worthy of death, so should I release him?” and I replied, “No, please kill him”? Didn’t they? Two Roman governors, one saying, “He is innocent, send those people away,” and the other saying, “Send those people away.” They said, “You cannot kill this man. He hasn’t done anything deserving of death, so why are you doing this?” But the religious leaders in the country right now, those stuck in a rut, will likely look at me and say, “Oh my, they claim to be waiting for the Second Coming of Jesus, yet only that one person shows up. He is a heretic.” That is the problem. Am I attacking the U.S. or Russia right now? The U.S. and Russia were Rome back then. I am not attacking them, am I? So, would it be right to tell the U.S. and Russia, “Please kill that guy”? It wouldn’t.

That is preposterous. It makes no sense. I mean, you know that “thousand times the spicy taste, a thousand times the spicy taste”? I mean, experiencing the spicy taste a thousand times. A divine being said so. Didn’t he? He endured ten thousand kinds of suffering. I am someone who has gone through this.

Thousands of hardships, thousands of hardships,
hardships, hardships, suffering

Thousand hardships. I’ve tasted spiciness a thousand times—really, it must be more than a thousand. That’s what they call it. After overcoming all those hardships, what happened in the end? It means I tasted spiciness and bitterness a thousand times. The character ‘go’ means bitter. You understand what I mean. I am the one standing here after tasting spiciness and bitterness a thousand times, and tasting 10,000. But now that this bitterness is over, sweetness is coming. Here, here, there are several kinds of flavor. There are several kinds. There are three flavors: a thousand spiciness, bitterness, and sweetness. When this bitterness eventually runs out, will sweetness come or not? Will the saying “bitter hardships lead to sweetness” come or not? It must come.

But back then, I died after going through countless hardships. Did the sweetness come? I went to the cross and passed out. Completely helpless. This was an era of countless hardships. When I came, the Second Coming was a case of “bitter after sweet.” Now the bitterness is over. The day when the bitterness ends will surely come. Then, will He come or not? What is this persimmon? This persimmon is, everyone, the Palace of Heaven. It looks like the Palace of Heaven, doesn’t it? Look. Look closely. I’m telling you to look closely at this potato. I’m telling you to look closely at the potato. This is a cow. Ah, right. So, is there a cow’s snout here or not? I’m saying a cow is coming. I’m saying it will definitely come in the year of the Ox. So, a cow will definitely come. People, please remember this. This is my story, that obvious tale of “bitter after sweet.” It’s not your story. People don’t really know this potato. This is a cow, a cow. You said a cow is coming, so go to where the sound of a cow mooing is heard. It’s right here. The sound of a cow mooing. So, the New Jerusalem is built here. So, people say the Jerusalem over there is built here. This is the real Jerusalem.

So, mineral water comes out only here. Is there mineral water over there in Jerusalem? No, there isn’t. Do you understand? The water coming out is sweet. I mean sweet. Sweet, sweet. It tastes strange. A child wouldn’t drink other water because it was bitter, remember how I used to drink bitter water back in the day? Now, the water coming out tastes sweet. So, if you give a child a water bottle, they would throw away the old one. They would throw it away saying, “What kind of unlucky thing is this?” But if you give them the water from the White Palace in the sky, they sit there sucking it up. I’m not lying. I’ve heard that a lot. It’s true, isn’t it? If a child likes it, it means it has a sweet taste. It’s good water. This isn’t bitter water. Sweet water comes out. Sweet water comes out. The character for bitter. We’ve finished all the bitter water now.

So, when I first came long ago, the First Coming had to go through countless hardships. I experienced a thousand spicy tastes and ten thousand bitter tastes before I left. Now that I have returned, the bitterness is over and the sweetness is coming. That is why this, this is called the New Jerusalem. This is the Old Jerusalem.

Thousands of hardships, thousands of
hardships, hardships and hardships.

Old Jerusalem
New Jerusalem

Is there anyone in this world who knows that? I am teaching you today. If you can’t understand when I explain in such detail that a divine being has come, what do you call this? Even though I’ve explained it to you like this…

You’re a child without a father. Are you a child without a father or not? Just because you were born of a mother, did she teach you one or two things? She sings hundreds of songs to people whenever she opens her mouth—words like “absurd, child without a father.” You understand now. It’s not just one or two things on top of being a child without a father. We covered everything from spirit, speech, writing, and judgment to fatherlessness, and all the way through to the destruction of war. We have already gone through this course. But now, I am here to wrap it up. Why is the New Jerusalem called the City of Sweetness After Bitterness? This is the City of Sweetness After Bitterness. What was the old Jerusalem? It was the City of Suffering Through Countless Hardships. I escaped from the City of Suffering Through Countless Hardships. I died in this City of Suffering Through Countless Hardships. So, I am appearing from the City of Sweetness After Bitterness. This is the New Jerusalem.

This castle is still a castle of countless hardships. There is an Islamic mosque inside. Three mosques sit there fighting. Even now, it is a story of bitterness followed by sweetness. Ah, it is indeed countless hardships. It is still countless hardships; there is no sweetness there. They are still at war, and even now, that place is a Wall of Weeping. Is there a Wall of Weeping or not? There is no Wall of Laughter here. There is no Wall of Joy. In the Heavenly Palace, people just dance and sing where water flows and the mineral springs emerge, but where is the Wall of Weeping here? It is a Wall of Joy, isn’t it? Here, there is joyful mineral water. The Wall of Weeping must be there; it must be here. Countless hardships are the Wall of Weeping. No matter how much you cry, there is no end. Even the descendants must go there and weep. Why must the descendants go there and weep?

Because they killed me. Do you think the descendants who killed me won’t wail? Let those descendants wail there forever. But what about us? We sing happily, don’t we? Is there any difference? That is why today’s politicians and religious leaders must listen attentively to the words of the Divine Man. Satiety, Concentration, and Wisdom are the Three Trainings. They are not the Three Evils, are they? These are the Three Trainings, the Three Trainings.

The Three Learnings of Precepts, Concentration, and Wisdom

It is through these precepts, morality, and wisdom that this illness is cured. That is why these precepts are this. Killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct—these three are sins committed by the physical body. Next, lying, slander, and malicious speech are sins committed with the mouth. It means you must not commit those things. That is why they are the Ten Commandments. Then, regarding 7, 8, and 9, 8, 9, and 10 are greed, hatred, and delusion. Now, among these, in Christianity, greed, hatred, and delusion are at the end, aren’t they? Here, this is what greed, hatred, and delusion are. Look here.

If someone commits murder, kill them. But I told the Jews to forgive. I would die. I had no choice but to die. “Stone all adulterers to death”—that is Jewish law. But I said, “Spare them.” That is why I died at that time. Also, “Cut off the arm of anyone who steals.” They actually cut it off. But I said, “Do not cut it off. Forgive them.” So here, it is sword for sword, tooth for tooth. But for me, it is sword for forgiveness, tooth for love. So do you think the Jews would leave me alone? They rushed at me, saying, “That crazy bastard, kill him! He is one who has blasphemed the Law of Moses!” Are my words right or wrong? That is why I am saying that this era has arrived—a bright era, an era of bitterness followed by sweetness. And I explained about Feng Shui here, didn’t I? The Feng Shui is tremendously good, isn’t it? Look closely. As for why Feng Shui and the Three Learnings of Primordial-Praise cured the Three Poisons, there are many stories to tell if I go too deep into that.

But from a feng shui perspective, our Sky Palace is excellent, isn’t it? In terms of feng shui, the location of the Living Buddha on Mount Jiuhua pales in comparison to our Sky Palace. Why? Because China itself has bad feng shui. Look, this is China. Our country is attached like this, isn’t it? It’s attached like this, isn’t it? This is China. It is China, isn’t it?

China
poor people
our country’s sea
Senkaku Islands
Taiwan Strait
Philippines sea
Indonesia Malaysia

But this is our country’s sea. What is here? What kind of archipelago is this? It’s the Senkaku Islands. This is the sea of ​​Japan’s Senkaku Islands. This is our sea. Then there’s Taiwan. It’s the Taiwan Strait. There’s the Philippines here. It’s the Philippine Sea. As for China, there’s Indonesia and Malaysia here. The seas are all blocked off like this.

So, China is trapped like this. The country of China is shaped like this, but the path to the Pacific Ocean is completely blocked. There is no Atlantic Ocean either. From a feng shui perspective, this is an unlucky place. That is why there are many poor people here. So, what does that mean? They cannot survive without practicing communism. It’s a bit like that, isn’t it? It means the path to the sea is blocked. South Korea is blocking it like this. North Korea is blocking it. Is there any land to use, or any path to the sea? That is why shipbuilding here was delayed compared to us.

We are number one in the world for shipbuilding. Why? Because we are surrounded by sea on three sides. We can go to the Pacific Ocean freely. From Jeju Island, however, these people wonder if there are many obstacles for us to overcome. So, even if they were to be destroyed by the Soviet Union, they would have to pass through our seas. For them, the sea routes are too complicated. That is why the ocean hasn’t developed at all. From a feng shui perspective, it is the same as having no sea at all. That is why China can never rank in the world. It is tied down by feng shui. But the United States has the sea north of Alaska, the Pacific to the east, the Atlantic to the west, the Pacific to the east, and the Caribbean Sea beneath the Atlantic. Wow, the sea is completely open. So, for the US, ships can go all the way to Hawaii, and the entire ocean belongs to them.

Do you think that’s the only place? Hawaii isn’t the only U.S. territory. The entire Pacific Ocean is under U.S. control. They own islands scattered here and there. Why do they own islands? To claim the ocean. The sheer size of their ocean alone is 100 times that of China. Is that even possible? Do you think it is? If the U.S. looks like this, if the country looks like this, if this is the U.S., then this is all their ocean, all the way to Hawaii. And you know those places where people go for honeymoons? Guam, Saipan, and all the other places like Hawaii—it is all their ocean. This entire ocean is their ocean. How vast is the ocean? So, having such a vast ocean to rival this country means they are rich.

Having this much water makes you a tycoon. A world-leading tycoon. But if water is scarce like this, no matter how much land there is, it’s bad because the water is scarce. And another thing is, the water isn’t flowing in; it’s all draining away from here. It all flows out into the East Sea. Is that right? All the water is draining away, so there is nowhere for water to come in. What is this place? It’s a desert. Water should be in the north; is it okay to have a desert? This is wrong. The North is water. For them, the North is their territory. You know, Alaska is above Canada? That’s their land, too. Yes, there is plenty of water in the North, isn’t there? The Feng Shui of the South is the best in the world. So why didn’t I go there?

That place isn’t central soil, so if you dig and then fill it back in, there isn’t enough soil. The ground lacks white clay. If you plant sweet potatoes there, they grow ten times larger than ours. Then what are they used for? They don’t taste good. In our country, if you dig deep, twice as much soil remains. The soil is so firm and solid. This is central soil. So where does this Yaso come from? He comes to this Heavenly Palace on the Korean Peninsula. Well, I have a lot to say, but I’ve already shown you why Jerusalem is the Heavenly Palace, haven’t I? But what else is there that is unique to the Heavenly Palace? There are the Ten Auspicious Places. The fact that the Heavenly Palace is the only place with the Ten Auspicious Places is also important. If you go to Israel, would there be any Ten Auspicious Places? It is a land where not a single blade of grass grows. What kind of Ten Auspicious Places could there be? No matter how good the land is, shouldn’t there be plenty of water? There must be plenty of water. But Israel is short on water. That place isn’t an auspicious location. A true auspicious location is where mineral water gushes out and water flows.

So, there are ten thousand generals here. It is a place commanded by a ten thousand general. I mean, you are in a position like this, commanded by a ten thousand general. It is a ten thousand-general command type, isn’t it?

Goryeongsan

1. Commander of Ten Thousands Shape
2. Seated Altar Shape
3. Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven Shape
4. Peonies in Full Bloom Shape

Wait, is this alone enough for a place like this? Since it commands ten thousand generals, it is a position that unifies the world. But what does the Heavenly God do when He comes here? He just sits there. It is the Heavenly God Seated Formation, isn’t it? This place, 1, 2, 3, and 4, is Goryeongsan. This is Goryeongsan. The highest divine spirit resides here. It is set up like this. Could there be a place like this? Has any geomancer in our country ever come here and realized this? Next, what is the next part here? It is the Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven Formation, isn’t it? Ah, here, the dragon is rising to the sky and ascending. It is the Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven Formation. Yes, and next is the Peony, isn’t it? The Full Bloom Peony. I mean, it is filled with peonies. Full Bloom. They are in bloom. Peony, Peony in Full Bloom Formation—so you are saying that this Central Mountain, Goryeongsan, is like this?

What’s next here? Gaemaengsan, Gaemyeongsan. What is Gaemyeongsan? What does the dragon do there? The dragon plays with the Yeouiju. So, I’m saying the dragon plays with the Yeouiju. Play. I left out the ‘ju’ (jewel). Yongju, Yongju-huirong-hyeong. It’s Yongju-huirong-hyeong.

Gaemyeongsan
5. Dragon Playing with a Pearl Shape
6. Phoenix Holding an Egg Shape
7. Heavenly Gold Emerging from a Turtle Shape

What’s the second one? It’s the Phoenix, the Phoenix Laying Eggs type. The Laying Eggs type. Eggs. And then, lastly, the Thousand Gold Exit type. There are these three types.

Next, what shape is the place where the lecture is taking place? It’s 6 7 8 4 5 6 7. 8 9 10. Here it’s 5 6 7, and 5 6 7. 8 9 10. What is 8? What does the golden rooster do? It’s the Golden Rooster Laying Eggs shape, isn’t it? The gold bar is the Laying Eggs shape.

8. Golden Rooster Hatching Eggs Shape
9. Pisces Emperor Emerging Shape
10. Ten Fields Taoist House Shape

Next is the Bisul-jecheolhyeong and Eum-jecheolhyeong. It means the Emperor appears. The Emperor, the Emperor of Heaven, comes out holding a pipa and a geomungo. What I am talking about right now is the pipa and the geomungo. This, from which words come out, is the pipa, and the geomungo that comes out of the mouth. What is the tenth? Jesus of Christianity came as Yin and Yang. The character ‘Jeon’ represents the Second Coming, and this is something of the past. It is the Tenfold, isn’t it? That person points to the truth. He raises up the family lineage, doesn’t he? That is the City of Jerusalem. The Sipjeon-ga-hyeong. This is the proof that it is the City of Jerusalem. This is the Land of Ten Victories.

What you absolutely need to know today is that “Gojin-gamrae-seong” refers to Jerusalem, Israel. “Cheonsin-man-goseong” is Jerusalem. So, regarding what you learned from me today, you need to know the conclusion. Just looking at this, you remember, don’t you, you cow-head? You will remember. “Gojin-gamrae-seong”… wait, “Cheonsin-man-goseong” comes first. It means tasting a thousand spicy flavors and ten thousand bitter flavors. It used the character for “bitter,” didn’t it? What kind of castle is that castle? It is the City of Jerusalem. This is the City of Jerusalem.

City of immense hardship, Jerusalem;
City of sweetness after bitterness, Heavenly Palace, New Jerusalem

You are still wailing, aren’t you? You shed tears because the bitterness, the spiciness, and the bitterness continue. You keep shedding tears and suffering. But what is this place? Now, the bitterness, the spiciness, and the bitterness are all there is. What is this? It’s a cow’s head. You can draw it like this, like a cow. And you know what I mean. It’s a potato. Bitterness after sweetness. The City of Bitterness After Sweetness is the Heavenly Palace. The Heavenly Palace is the New Jerusalem. This is what we studied today. You must not forget it. To talk about this, we covered everything—what has it been, the Odomuyujideungya, what is it, the Manjangtongsol, and so on.

So, what is the difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament? It is that commandments 6, 7, and 8 have been reversed. This is what the Jews observe, and this is what Christians observe. Evil for evil. Judaism is always about evil for evil. But there is one important thing you need to know here. Because you are like this. In any religion, is Moses’s word scarier than mine? I tell you to forgive everyone. I tell you to forgive murderers, adulterers, and thieves. So, on the surface, who looks scarier? Moses looks scary, doesn’t he? But why isn’t Moses scary? Am I scarier? I mean, he says to forgive and spare lives—isn’t that all good? But there is a difference between Moses and me. A difference between the Jews and me. You must understand this about the Jews.

The Jews command you to murder, commit adultery, and steal, but that only exists when it is visible. But what do I say? If you look lewdly at a woman in your heart, that is adultery. Then you would have to die a million times over. I am telling you not to commit adultery in your heart. I forgive the adulterer, but doing it in the heart is still adultery. However, for Moses, eating adultery in your heart is not adultery. It is only theft and adultery when you act on it; coveting someone else’s house or belongings is theft for me. But for Moses, it is only theft when it is actually carried out. It is different, isn’t it? That is why the New Testament is scarier. That is why the New Testament has love, but it is like parental love. Do parents like it when their child steals? They scold them, don’t they?

That is because there is love. But the Old Testament has no love. It has no love. The flaw of the Old Testament is that it lacks love. But the New Testament forgives, because even if you merely have the intention to commit adultery, it is adultery. It is scarier than Moses. However, even if you do commit adultery, it grants forgiveness. It is different, isn’t it? So, the scope of sin is wider when I came. Yet, the punishment is lighter. That is what I am saying was the case during Jesus’ time. But I, who have come now, impose strict punishment. Since there are few decent people there, I completely exclude them, and I just leave the bad people alone. I leave them alone and they enter into judgment.

So, later on, you will come to see a burning sky. A tremendous world will undergo hardship. And as it does, the Earth will shorten its lifespan and enter another ice age. In the meantime, I will come. Oh my, you are so fortunate. That sweetness of “bitter after bitterness” is only given when the ox comes. That is why that character is the character for sweetness. I am Umyeongseongji. Useongjae. It is widely known in the East that I come as an ox. That is why, if you look at Buddhism, ten oxen surround the Dharma hall. There is the Ten Ox Pictures. So, that is called the Ten Ox Pictures, which are pictures of finding the ox. Just as the Ten Ox Pictures exist, the oxen are surrounding everything.

And it means that if the cow comes, Buddhism will end. It means that if the cow comes, since the cow has already appeared in this temple, this temple on earth will crumble at that moment. But how long does their temple stay? It stays only until they find the cow. That is why there are pictures of people searching for the cow all around the temple. Then the cow comes looking over there. Then the temple’s fate is sealed. Do you understand now? They drew pictures in the temple saying, “Stay only until the cow comes.” Is that right or wrong? Have you ever seen me get something wrong? Since we don’t have much time, I am someone who likes listening to music. You understand now. Make sure you remember this today. This is a cow. You can hear the sound of a cow mooing here. On the outside, it sounds like a dragon’s roar, but it is the sound of a cow mooing. Hey, play that cow mooing sound. But I’ve explained the core point really well, haven’t I? What you need to memorize today is “Cheonsinmangoseong” and that is the City of Jerusalem.

Let’s listen to the sound of a cow mooing. That is the sound of a cow mooing. Isn’t that foolish? I told you to listen closely. The sound of a cow mooing. I have heard this hundreds of times right here. Then why does that goosebump-inducing sound come from the site of the main palace? This is Umyeongji, Umyeongji. The place where a cow moos. That is the Ten Victories Site. Mineral water gushes out only from that spot. Does mineral water come out of the city of Jerusalem? No, it doesn’t. This is the city. Even though I have explained it to you like that, if you rush at me again like the people of Jerusalem, shouting, “Catch Huh Kyung-young! Catch that bastard! That thing is a devil!” then I have nothing more to say.

However, they failed to triumph, and the Divine Man eventually created the City of Gojingamrae. What is Gojingamrae? It is a city where the bitterness passes and sweetness arrives. So, the sweetness has already arrived. Water is just gushing out. You are absolutely right. If you go to Jerusalem, finding a well is like trying to catch a star in the sky. Water is scarce. Because the ground level is 1,000 meters above sea level. How could there be water? It is a land where dust flies everywhere. If that is considered a good thing, it is a barren wasteland. That is why I don’t go to places like that. I am sick and tired of it. Did I die there?

But here in this excellent auspicious spot, water springs up in every valley. Groundwater gushes out at every hotel. So you’d think we’d have to draw up the Moderator, but now, even if we don’t draw it up, the water that rises up—that mineral water—comes out right in front of us. It comes out from under the tree where the Twelve Disciples are. The White Palace Stone is looking at that tree of the Twelve Disciples. Then you must realize it. I tell you to quietly go and look at the White Palace Stone. The Twelve Disciples are positioned exactly like an arrow pointing toward where the mineral water comes out. An elephant’s head is looking at the mineral water. Why is it looking at it like that? To drink the water. So, did the water come out first, or did the elephant go first? The elephant went first. The elephant turned its snout right toward that spot to drink, and that is where the water comes out. That is why you must not underestimate a Divine Being. You all make a big mistake.

You certainly didn’t learn this in school, did you? This is all a book of prophecies. I have given an enormous number of lectures. Since I have lectured for 40 years, you can imagine how many lectures like this I have given. Therefore, you must clearly know that a divine being is present.
So, imagine back when electricity first came to Korea. I was in the countryside, and the lights came on before they reached Seoul. So I touched the wires—plus and minus. At that moment, my body flashed. Did I know what that meant? I didn’t know what it was, so I touched the wires to study, since the electricity was the last to be introduced. The electric light flashed, and it was a 30V one. Even though it was 30V, my head flashed. So, even though it was 30V, the light flashed like a bolt of lightning.

However, if you touch a 300 million volt wire, your body disappears instantly. Your body vanishes. If you touch 300 million volts, your body vanishes. Then, later on, it came out to 100 volts. Later, it even reached 220 volts. If you touch that, you could die. Your heart stops instantly. So why does the heart stop? The heart moves based on electrical signals. Who sends those electrical signals? The Cadbury Palace sends them. There is a circuit in the brain that receives what comes from the Cadbury Palace. If you switch off a heart attack over there, it will just snap. That is how our bodies receive electricity from over there.

But suddenly, as he was walking down that road, walking through the wholesale market, tens of thousands of volts of electricity flashed right before his eyes. It wasn’t just tens of thousands of volts; it was hundreds of millions of volts. Did it flash or not? Did it touch his hand? It didn’t. It flashed right in front of his eyes, so how could he see? He couldn’t see, and Paul went blind. It was only 0.1 seconds. But then he heard my voice. “Paul, stop! Why are you going around killing my disciples?” I said. “Saul, stop it!” So, Saul saw that flashing ray of light and lost his sight.

That is the meter. That is an enormous current. So, when a divine being appears, you all see that ray of light. Look how free I am in seeing that ray; I don’t blind you, but just let you see it moderately. If I were to appear before you as a ray of light, you would all go blind. Ah, go blind and all faint. I am holding back. I just completely kill the ray of light so that it comes out through my mouth. Remember the Ten-Transference Path Formation? No, it just comes out through the mouth. And it comes out through words and the mind, but I heal you and do all sorts of things.

It does this, but the light doesn’t blind your eyes. It doesn’t make you faint. Do you know how difficult this is? It does this while keeping your lives alive, but Saul got scolded. Suddenly, there was a flash, and he couldn’t see. He opened his eyes after three days. And he opened them exactly as he was told. But this man, who used to see well, was leading dozens of people to arrest Jesus’ disciples when there was a flash on the road, and he was the only one who couldn’t see. Shouldn’t the others be blind too? He could see all the guys following him, so Saul realized it. “Wow, Jesus actually exists.” That’s how he changed. That is how he became a key figure in spreading Christianity throughout the world.

So, as you all know, it is the saying, “This life is the birth of the dead.” It is time for me to wrap this up now. This life is the birth of the dead. I told you this morning, didn’t I? What is this birth of the dead? What is this birth of the dead? Now, you must keep this in mind. You understand what I mean.

This life is the reason for that life

That must exist for this to exist. I mean, that exists because this exists. What exists only if there is birth? There is birth. Birth leads to birth. So, this must exist for that to exist, and if that exists, this exists. Therefore, you must keep this in mind as you go through life. I mean that life isn’t just about living things being born. It means something comes into being. So, there is nothing without a cause. There is nothing without a connection. You must keep this in mind. A divine being wouldn’t be here without a reason. Birth leads to the divine. Birth leads to the divine. There is no way a divine being would come without a reason. Since that is easy to memorize, you all need to know it.

So, you all need to completely get rid of this way of thinking. It benefits you. But to others, it is a waste of time and effort.

Self-interest and harm to others

Is this ‘self-interest and altruism’ (Jari-i-ta) okay? Should I do something that benefits me but harms others, or not? Is this acceptable? Then what should I do? If it benefits you, then practice self-interest and altruism towards others.

Self-interest and altruism

We should practice self-interest. It means acting in a way that benefits both yourself and others. However, I’m not saying you must do this; you don’t have to.

Bodhisattva practice of self-harm

It harms yourself, but benefits others. This is a bit difficult for you to do.

This is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. This is Kim Gyo-gak. He is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, isn’t he? He has to crawl into the ground. Since he has no clothes, he takes them all off and gives them away. That is how he has given benefit to others. In Buddhism, we call this the Bodhisattva mind. Bodhisattva practice. It is a bit difficult for just anyone to do this. However, you all must do this. It benefits you, and it benefits others as well. Understood? Depending on the situation, you must not feel wronged when something like this happens. This is what Bodhisattvas do.

There are missionaries who go to Africa to do missionary work for the sake of others, even if it means their wives and children die from endemic diseases, aren’t there? There are Christian missionaries, pastors like that, aren’t there? So this is exactly the kind of self-sacrifice seen in the story of Kim Gyo-gak. Schweitzer and Pestalozzi went to Africa to sacrifice themselves and benefit others, didn’t they? Keep in mind that such people exist, and always look at this. This is the person who received the Grand Prize. Do you see the place where it was folded? There is a place where it is folded like this? Why is there a folded spot here? Why is it folded like this? It was put in an envelope. I have read all the letters in the White Palace Stone. Out of everything I have seen so far, this is the Grand Prix. Among the things he wrote on the White Palace Stone’s Wish Stone that I have read, this is the Grand Prize. Huh Kyung-young, please read it.

Hello, Divine Being Huh Kyung-young. I am Kim Do-young, residing in Gonghang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. When I open my eyes in the morning, I begin my day with a brief stretching exercise. I also offer five bows of thanksgiving to the Divine Being and give thanks for being able to offer prayers of gratitude. Thank you, Divine Being, for giving me the gift of this day. I am grateful to be breathing and alive. I give thanks to all creation and nature. I am grateful to be able to stay healthy thanks to Gwangcheon Bullo-su, Bullo-yu, and Bullo-sansam.

I will strive to make each day a day filled with gratitude, contentment, and joy. Thank you for the opportunity to go to Baekgung Heaven and for allowing me to go there. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to send my acquaintances, relatives, and ancestors to Baekgung. Thank you for teaching me the word of providence through your YouTube lectures. I want to go to Baekgung Heaven by accumulating merit and hidden virtue, living a kind and virtuous life, raising my spirituality and level, and living that way. I am grateful that I can contribute, however insignificantly, with my small devotion to the holy work of the Divine Man, Huh Kyung-young. I will have a good day today and offer a prayer of fivefold thanksgiving this evening. Thank you. Gonghang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul. Thursday, December 31, 2024. Sincerely, Kim Do-hyung.

You all see the letters you write to the White Palace. I was reading one, and this person wrote it so well. It was well written, wasn’t it? You need to be grateful for everything like that for your levels to go up much more. Well then, I suppose it’s best if I stop nagging you for today. Oh my, this is fun.

Introduction to the Cosmic Principles and the Human Condition
Greetings to all attendees of this final Saturday lecture of December and to our viewers both domestically and internationally. Your efforts throughout this year are deeply appreciated . Huh Kyung young, the Divine Being, has descended to Earth to resolve global issues such as disease, famine, and nuclear warfare, and to guide ten million souls from this earthly realm to the Heavenly Palace . Having received the blessings and Holy Spirit from the Divine, we must approach the coming new year with unwavering confidence and renewed vigor in all our endeavors . Today, we shall attentively listen to the 1472nd Saturday lecture by the great Divine Being, Huh Kyung young .

Today’s lecture begins with three floral presentations . First, a white orchid, symbolizing new life, is offered from Seogwipo, Jeju Island, in celebration of the Divine Being’s birth . Its beauty is truly remarkable . Thank you and congratulations . Next, two angels, Park Hyun-sook and Lee Soo-yeon from Cheonan, present a basket of flowers, predominantly yellow, expressing their gratitude to the Divine Being . Please give them a round of applause . Finally, the Tokyo Spiritual Center in Japan, represented by Angel Lee Yoo-seok, offers a yellow potted flower in commemoration of the Divine Being’s birth . We wish for the eternal prosperity of the Tokyo Spiritual Center . Let us now listen to the precious words of the Divine Being’s providence .

The color yellow, representing the central earth element, is significant . In the context of the five elements (wood, fire, earth, metal, water), earth plays a crucial role in fostering harmony and mutual generation, preventing conflict . Everything, regardless of its initial form, eventually returns to earth to be transformed into new matter . Just as a tree’s leaves, despite their varied colors, return to the soil and can re-emerge in different hues, transformation necessitates passing through the earth element . This profound principle is encapsulated in the concept of Wonhyeongijeong (origin, growth, harvest, storage), which ultimately signifies a return to the original state, a cyclical regeneration through the earth . This is why individuals who experience business failures often return to their hometowns, seeking solace in the familiar earth of their origins . As one ages, the earth gradually approaches, signifying the inevitable return to the soil .

The Nature of Mind, Spirit, and the Divine
Our mind and soul eventually separate . The mind merely serves to nourish the soul . The mind operates on the principle of yin and yang, representing vital energy . This energy is generated by the interplay of yin and yang; for instance, a difference in temperature creates wind, which is a manifestation of vital energy . Our bodies similarly experience fluctuations in this energy, leading to various physical sensations . Understanding these natural principles, which should ideally be grasped in elementary school, profoundly alters our perception of the world . Listening to the Divine Being’s lectures and watching his YouTube content is invaluable, as this knowledge, even if not immediately recalled, is absorbed into the mind and influences the body . It can spontaneously manifest in moments of need, such as uttering “Gwangse” (divine light) to save a life .

Our physical bodies are merely shadows, reflections of the sun . We should marvel at the mystery of our existence . The world, as commonly understood, represents the lowest stage of consciousness, the “hardware” . Science, too, begins with hardware . Above hardware is “software,” a slightly higher stage . Beyond that is “mindware,” which current science has not yet fully comprehended . While machines can respond to our thoughts and voices through AI, this is achieved by inputting human language as software, essentially converting it into numerical data .

The most unchanging and honest entity in this world is numbers . Numbers never deceive us, unlike words or human interactions . This inherent honesty is why many religious figures are drawn to numbers . Words, however, can be ambiguous and misleading . The passage of time, governed by numerical cycles like the Eulsa year (Year of the Blue Snake), is relentless and unyielding, leading us inexorably towards our ultimate destination .

The Candle Analogy and the Hierarchy of “Wares”
The analogy of a burning candle illustrates this concept . Just as a candle gradually burns down, our lives progress towards their end . In my youth, I discovered a method to prolong a candle’s life by wrapping it in newspaper . This prevents the melted wax from flowing away, keeping the wick saturated and allowing the candle to burn significantly longer, up to twenty times its normal duration . This technique also protected the flame from wind, ensuring continuous light for study . My intense study under candlelight, inhaling the soot, contributed to my knowledge .

Software can contain vast amounts of knowledge, but it is fundamentally based on numbers . AI, for instance, processes all information, including human faces, fingerprints, and personal identification numbers, as numerical data or barcodes . This numerical representation is the foundation of artificial intelligence . Self-driving cars, for example, operate based on numerical inputs, ensuring precise and reliable actions . Human brains also process information in a similar numerical fashion .

Beyond software, there is “mindware,” which transcends numerical representation . Above mindware lies “spiritware,” and ultimately, “heavenware” . The Divine Being operates at the level of heavenware, while human minds typically function at lower levels . Each ascending stage represents a profound difference .

The upcoming year, Eulsa-nyeon, is the Year of the Blue Snake . The character for Eul (乙) represents a bird, and Sa (巳) denotes a snake . When inputting such complex symbolic meanings into AI, it becomes challenging to differentiate between literal meaning and phonetic representation . The Eul in Eulsa-nyeon is a symbolic character used in the sexagenary cycle, not a literal bird . The true meaning, “Blue Snake,” refers to the actual animal . Explaining these nuances to a general audience requires simplification, much like a Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners . The Divine Being, possessing heavenware, must communicate with those operating at the “hardware” level, which can be likened to conversing with a “stone head” .

The Advantage of Scarcity and the New Jerusalem
When fewer people attend the Heavenly Palace lectures, there are distinct advantages . For instance, attendees can secure better seating . Moreover, the level of hospitality and attention received is higher . A shop with few customers treats each one like royalty, whereas a crowded shop often leads to impatience and demands for order . This inability to grasp such simple analogies immediately is characteristic of the “hardware” mindset . Such individuals struggle to adapt when the context of a discussion shifts slightly . Living with someone who is “hardware-minded” might seem easy, but living with someone who is intellectually agile is far more engaging, even if it presents challenges .

The New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace is located in Korea, specifically at the Heavenly Palace site, which resembles a fortress . Unlike the historical Jerusalem, which is situated at a high altitude, approximately 900-1000 meters above sea level, and then descends another 200 meters, creating a significant topographical difference of about 1000 meters . The Heavenly Palace also stands on elevated ground, around 400 meters above sea level, with a rising terrain . This elevated position, where the land descends towards Seoul, is characteristic of a “fortress” . In contrast, China’s Forbidden City is on flat land, making the term “fortress” less fitting . True fortresses, like Goryeo’s Wanggeomseong or Korea’s Namhansanseong and Bukhansanseong, are typically built on high ground, conveying a sense of authority . Seoul, historically known as Hanseong, was built on flat land, lacking the imposing presence of a true fortress .

Traditional Korean homes built on flat ground lack the same authority as those constructed on elevated foundations . Grand houses in the countryside often feature high stone foundations, known as chukdae or chaekdam, which elevate the structure and give it a sense of weight and importance . Royal palaces also incorporate such elevated foundations . Smaller tiled houses in Seoul, built on flat ground, appear less authoritative .

The Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha and the Limitations of AI
A remarkable Korean figure, Monk Kim Gyo-gak, became a living Buddha (Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha) in China . His story illustrates the profound spiritual capabilities of the Korean people . Ksitigarbha, meaning “Earth Store,” refers to his act of concealing his body in the earth . Kim Gyo-gak was exceptionally tall, around two meters, making him stand out among the shorter Chinese monks . His exemplary conduct and compassion earned him immense respect from both monks and local villagers, leading to his deification . He became known as Ksitigarbha because he gave away all his possessions, even his clothes, to the poor, eventually burying himself in the earth out of modesty .

Inputting such complex narratives and profound spiritual concepts into AI software is incredibly challenging . While we can create such software, it cannot replicate “mindware” . The fact that a Korean became a deity in China, attracting millions of tourists annually to Mount Jiuhua, demonstrates the greatness of the Korean people . Kim Gyo-gak requested that his body be left for three months after his death, and if it did not decompose, he should be preserved as a living Buddha, not buried or cremated . He became one of sixteen such living Buddhas at that temple, signifying his repeated reincarnations . This cycle of reincarnation, similar to the Dalai Lama, eventually ceased, as he no longer returned to Earth .

The Prophecy of Maitreya and the True Meaning of Heaven
Buddha Shakyamuni prophesied the coming of Maitreya, stating that his own teachings would fade with Maitreya’s arrival . This Maitreya, referred to as Hashiyasorae (the returning Jesus), is destined to appear on the Korean Peninsula . Shakyamuni declared that his own path was like a lamp without oil, implying a lack of vital energy .

Buddhism’s eight treasures—Right Enlightenment, Nirvana, Liberation, Bodhi, Prajna, Samadhi, Non-self, and Buddhahood—are profound concepts, but they are ultimately unattainable by humans . When tested, these concepts lack the inherent power that Christian concepts like Prayer, Salvation, Blessing, Holy Spirit, Gifts, Resurrection, Eternal Life, and Heaven possess .

Buddhism’s concept of Geungnak (Pure Land or Paradise) is often mistakenly equated with Heaven . Geungnak is a state of mind experienced within the human realm, not a separate heavenly dimension . Heaven, in contrast, is an entirely different realm, distinct from our world . The Buddhist concept of 33 heavens also refers to states of mind, not actual physical realms . Buddhism, therefore, is a philosophy focused on controlling the human mind, a form of psychology, rather than a path to a literal heaven . This distinction is evident when comparing the energetic responses to “Heaven” versus “Geungnak” . Before the Divine Being’s arrival, false teachings prevailed, but his presence reveals the truth: Geungnak is a false concept, while Heaven is real . Many religions have misled people into a labyrinth of confusion .

The Shipwreck Analogy and the Three Poisons
Humanity is adrift in a sea of religion, clinging to “life rafts” that are ultimately deceptive . This situation is akin to a shipwreck where the crew, the religious leaders, abandon the sinking ship (humanity) in lifeboats, leaving the passengers (the 8 billion people) to perish . These “saints” have fled and will not return . It is the returning Jesus, the Divine Being, who arrives with a colossal ship, extending countless ropes to rescue everyone from the sharks of suffering . This rescue is not limited to those who directly receive his blessing; ten million people can be saved through the blessings of others .

The cause of suffering in this “sea of pain” is the “three poisons”: greed, anger, and ignorance (tam-jin-chi) . These three poisons lead to the “three evil paths” or three hells . Overcoming suffering requires letting go of greed . For example, if one’s house is foreclosed, instead of fighting, one should release greed and be content with a smaller dwelling, or even a tent in the mountains . Such contentment brings happiness . When confronted by authorities, humility and honesty can evoke compassion, demonstrating that self-abasement can resolve life’s challenges . Pride, however, leads to hell .

Buddha Shakyamuni was a philosopher who taught how to control the mind, while the Divine Being reveals the spiritual realm . Shakyamuni’s teachings, though not incorrect, lack the “fire” or life energy . The Divine Being is the guide who provides this energy . Shakyamuni prescribed Jeonghye (meditation and wisdom) as the cure for the “disease” of the three poisons . This involves adhering to precepts (gye), which are found in all religions .

The Ten Commandments and the New Covenant
The Christian Ten Commandments include prohibitions against coveting, lying, stealing, adultery, and murder . The commandment against adultery, for instance, applies differently depending on one’s age . Similarly, Buddhism has its own ten precepts, such as not killing, stealing, or engaging in sexual misconduct, along with prohibitions against various forms of harmful speech and the three poisons .

There is a fundamental difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament regarding these precepts . The Old Testament prescribed severe punishments for transgressions, such as death for murder and adultery, and amputation for theft, advocating “an eye for an eye” . However, the Divine Being, as Jesus, taught forgiveness . When confronted with an adulterous woman, Jesus challenged those without sin to cast the first stone, implying that no human has the right to condemn another . This teaching directly contradicted the Mosaic law, leading to his crucifixion, not by the Roman authorities, but by the Jewish religious leaders who felt their authority threatened . These religious leaders, trapped in dogmatism, rejected the returning Jesus, labeling him a heretic .

The Divine Being’s current mission does not involve confronting global powers like the US and Russia, which represent the “Rome” of today . Yet, religious leaders might still seek to condemn him . This is illogical .

The Journey of Suffering and the Sweetness of the New Era
The Divine Being has endured “a thousand bitter tastes and ten thousand hardships” (cheonsin-mangu), a journey of immense suffering . This period of bitterness eventually gives way to sweetness, a concept known as Gojin-gamnae (bitterness ends, sweetness comes) . His crucifixion represented the culmination of cheonsin-mangu, while his return signifies Gojin-gamnae . The time will surely come when all bitterness ceases, and sweetness arrives .

This “sweetness” is symbolized by the Heavenly Palace . The Chinese character for “sweet” (甘, gam) resembles the head of an ox . This signifies the arrival of the ox, representing the Divine Being’s birth in the Year of the Ox (Gichuk-saeng) . This prophecy, Gojin-gamnae, refers to the Divine Being’s own story, not that of ordinary people . The Heavenly Palace is the true New Jerusalem, where miraculous spring water (gwangcheon-su) flows, unlike the historical Jerusalem, which lacks such a source . This water is sweet, a stark contrast to the bitter waters of the past . Children prefer this sweet water, rejecting ordinary water . This sweet water is a gift, a sign of the new era .

The old Jerusalem, the “City of a Thousand Hardships,” was where the Divine Being suffered and died . The New Jerusalem, the “City of Sweetness After Bitterness,” is where he reappears . The old Jerusalem remains a place of conflict, with the Dome of the Rock and other religious sites causing ongoing strife, a “Wailing Wall” of perpetual sorrow . In contrast, the Heavenly Palace is a place of joy, where people dance and sing by the flowing spring water, a “Wall of Joy” . The descendants of those who rejected the Divine Being will continue to wail at the Wailing Wall, while those who embrace him will sing songs of joy . Therefore, political and religious leaders must heed the words of the Divine Being .

The precepts (gye) of Jeonghye are not evil; they are the medicine that cures the three poisons . The three sins of the body are killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct . The four sins of speech are lying, deceptive speech, divisive speech, and harsh speech . The three sins of the mind are greed, anger, and ignorance . While the Ten Commandments of Christianity and Buddhism differ in their specifics, the Divine Being’s teachings transcend them .

The Old Testament’s “eye for an eye” justice contrasts sharply with the Divine Being’s teaching of forgiveness and love . This radical shift from retribution to compassion led to his condemnation by the Jewish leaders, who saw it as a blasphemy against Mosaic law . This era is a bright one, the era of Gojin-gamnae .

Geomancy and the Global Landscape
The Heavenly Palace possesses exceptionally favorable geomancy (pungsu) . In contrast, China’s geomancy is unfavorable . China’s geographical configuration, with its limited access to the Pacific Ocean due to surrounding countries and islands, restricts its maritime development . This poor geomancy contributes to widespread poverty and the necessity of communism . Korea, with its three sides open to the sea, has historically excelled in shipbuilding . The US, with its vast oceanic access—the Pacific to the west, the Atlantic to the east, and the Caribbean to the south—and numerous islands, possesses superior geomancy, symbolizing immense wealth and power .

China’s geomancy is further hampered by its northern deserts and the outflow of water to the East Sea, indicating a lack of incoming vital energy . The north, traditionally associated with water, is barren in China . The US, however, has abundant water in its northern regions, such as Alaska, and excellent geomancy in the south . Despite this, the Divine Being chose Korea because it is the “central earth,” a land that yields more soil than is dug out, signifying its strength and resilience . This is why the returning Jesus comes to the Heavenly Palace on the Korean Peninsula .

The Heavenly Palace is also a Sipseungji (ten-victory land), a place of ultimate auspiciousness . Israel, lacking abundant water, is not a Sipseungji or a propitious land . A true auspicious land has flowing spring water, like the Heavenly Palace, which is overseen by “ten thousand generals” (manjang) . This signifies a place that can unify the world . The Divine Being, a “Heavenly Spirit seated” (cheonsin danja-hyeong), resides here .

The surrounding mountains of the Heavenly Palace also possess auspicious geomantic features:
Goryeongsan (High Spirit Mountain): The highest spiritual mountain .
Biryong Seongcheon-hyeong (Flying Dragon Ascending to Heaven): A dragon ascending to heaven .
Mokdan Mangae (Peonies in Full Bloom): Peonies blooming abundantly .
Gyemyeongsan (Rooster Crowing Mountain): A mountain where a rooster crows .
Yongju Hirong (Dragon Playing with a Pearl): A dragon playing with a wish-fulfilling pearl .
Bonghwang Poran-hyeong (Phoenix Hatching Eggs): A phoenix hatching eggs .
Chulgeum Chulgu-hyeong (Golden Rooster Emerging from the Cave): A golden rooster emerging from a cave .
Geumgye Anhaeng (Golden Rooster Walking Peacefully): A golden rooster walking peacefully .
Biseol Jechul (Emperor Descending with a Lute): The Heavenly Emperor descends with a lute and a geomungo (Korean zither), symbolizing the Divine Being’s words .
Jeonja Jaerim (Former One’s Reincarnation): The returning Jesus, who teaches truth and establishes a lineage .

These ten auspicious features confirm the Heavenly Palace as the true New Jerusalem .

The Contrast Between Old and New Jerusalem
The old Jerusalem is the “City of a Thousand Hardships” (cheonsin-mangu seong), a place of continuous suffering, tears, and sorrow . The New Jerusalem, the Heavenly Palace, is the “City of Sweetness After Bitterness” (Gojin-gamnae seong), where bitterness ends and sweetness arrives . This is the core lesson of today’s lecture .

The difference between the Old and New Covenants lies in the interpretation of the commandments, particularly the sixth, seventh, and eighth . The Old Testament, followed by Jews, advocated “an eye for an eye,” while the New Testament, followed by Christians, emphasizes forgiveness . While Moses’ laws appear stricter on the surface, the Divine Being’s teachings are more profound . Moses’ laws only address outward actions, whereas the Divine Being’s teachings extend to the intentions of the heart . For instance, merely looking at a woman with lust is considered adultery in the New Testament, making everyone guilty . Similarly, coveting another’s possessions is theft in the New Testament, even without physical action .

Therefore, the New Testament is more “frightening” because it broadens the scope of sin to include thoughts and intentions . However, it also offers forgiveness, akin to a parent’s love for a child who steals . The Divine Being’s current arrival brings even stricter judgment, where only the truly good will be saved, and the wicked will face divine judgment . This period of Gojin-gamnae, the arrival of sweetness, is brought by the ox, symbolizing the Divine Being’s coming .

The Ox and the End of an Era
The Divine Being is known as Umyeong Seongji (the sacred land where the ox cries) and Useongje (the sacred ox), signifying his arrival as the ox . Buddhist temples often depict ten oxen surrounding the main hall, representing the “ox-herding pictures” (sido) . These images symbolize the search for the ox, and once the ox appears, the era of Buddhism ends, and the temple’s purpose is fulfilled . The Heavenly Palace is the place where the “ox’s cry” is heard, a sound that resembles a dragon’s roar but is distinctly the cry of an ox . This is the sacred land where the ox comes, and where miraculous spring water flows abundantly, unlike the barren land of Jerusalem .

Those who reject the Divine Being, like the people of Jerusalem who condemned Jesus, will face consequences . However, they will not prevail, as the Divine Being will ultimately establish the “City of Sweetness After Bitterness” . This means the bitter and spicy tastes of suffering will pass, and the sweet taste of abundance will arrive, symbolized by the flowing spring water . Jerusalem, a dusty land where water is scarce, is a barren place, unlike the Heavenly Palace where water flows from every valley . The miraculous spring water at the Heavenly Palace emerges from beneath the “Twelve Disciples’ Tree,” which is overlooked by the “Baekhongseok” (White Rainbow Stone) . The elephant’s head on the Baekhongseok points towards the spring water, symbolizing its desire to drink, indicating that the water was present even before the elephant arrived .

One must not underestimate the Divine Being, as doing so would be a grave mistake . These profound truths are not taught in schools; they are part of a vast body of knowledge accumulated over forty years of lectures . It is imperative to recognize the presence of the Divine Being .

The Divine Light and the Path to Enlightenment
When electricity first arrived in rural areas, I, out of curiosity, touched a 30-volt wire, experiencing a jolt . A 300-million-volt current, however, would instantly disintegrate the body . Even 100-220 volts can be fatal, as it can stop the heart, which operates on electrical signals from the void .

The Apostle Paul, on the road to Damascus, encountered a blinding light of millions of volts, which caused him to lose his sight for three days . This divine light, though unseen by his companions, was a direct manifestation of the Divine Being . The Divine Being, however, controls his divine light to appear before us without blinding or incapacitating us . He channels this light through his words and thoughts, healing and transforming us .

The principle of Chasaeng-gopisaeng (this arises, that arises; this ceases, that ceases) emphasizes that nothing exists without a cause or connection . The Divine Being’s presence here is not without reason . We must abandon selfish pursuits and embrace Jari-ita (self-benefit and other-benefit), where our actions benefit both ourselves and others . While Jari-ita is achievable, Jagi-haeta-ita (self-harm for other-benefit), exemplified by Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha who sacrificed his own well-being for others, is more challenging . Such self-sacrifice, like that of missionaries or figures like Albert Schweitzer, is a profound act of altruism .

A Letter of Gratitude and the Heavenly Palace Anthem
A letter of gratitude from Kim Do-young, residing in Gonghang-dong, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, was read, expressing profound appreciation for Huh Kyung young . The letter details daily gratitude for life, health, the miraculous spring water, and the opportunity to ascend to the Heavenly Palace and help ancestors and acquaintances do the same . It also expresses a desire to accumulate virtue, raise spiritual levels, and contribute to the Divine Being’s sacred work . Such consistent gratitude elevates one’s spiritual level .

The lecture concludes with performances of the Heavenly Palace promotional anthem by angels Kim Ji-yeon, Kang Ok-gi, and Park Hyun-sook . The anthem describes the Heavenly Palace as a “Heavenly Palace Station” where the Heavenly Spirit descends, where dragons play with wish-fulfilling pearls, and phoenixes hatch eggs . The angels’ graceful dancing, unlike ordinary performers, is a testament to the divine energy present at the Heavenly Palace . The music and the performers evoke a sense of being in the Heavenly Palace itself .

A speaker then shares a testimony of the Divine Being’s power, recounting how a man who actively promoted the Heavenly Palace’s YouTube content experienced a miraculous financial windfall . His unemployment benefits were released early, and an investment of 600,000 won in overseas futures yielded 4.79 million won . This “jackpot” is attributed to the Divine Being’s blessings . The “Jackpot Train” song encourages everyone to join the Heavenly Palace before it’s too late .

Another angel performs a philosophical song about peace, inspired by the Divine Being’s message to avoid conflict . The song questions why humanity fights despite its limited understanding of the universe, advocating for peace and harmony . The lecture concludes with a final message that the New Jerusalem Heavenly Palace is our true home .

1. The Significance of the Central Earth in Cosmic Harmony

The Korean Peninsula is considered the central earth, symbolized by the color yellow. This central earth plays a crucial role in fostering harmony, as its absence would lead to conflict. Just as all things eventually return to the earth to be reborn into new forms, the earth facilitates a cycle of regeneration. This profound principle of returning to the origin for renewal is evident in nature, where even fallen leaves transform in the soil before new life emerges. This cyclical process is a fundamental cosmic law.

2. The Inevitable Return to Earth and the Separation of Mind and Spirit
   Just as a person who has failed in business often returns to their hometown, seeking solace at their parents’ graves, this act symbolizes a return to the earth’s fundamental energy. As individuals age, they gradually draw closer to the earth, anticipating the soil that will eventually cover them. This signifies the approaching moment when the mind and spirit will separate.

3. The Dual Nature of Mind and the Universal Principle of Energy
   The mind, being dualistic, merely nourishes the spirit. Energy, or “Gi,” originates from the interplay of yin and yang. For instance, the difference in temperature between a cold and a warm area generates wind, which is a manifestation of energy. Similarly, the human body is a vessel through which energy constantly flows, influencing our physical sensations and well-being.

4. The Profound Wisdom of Nature’s Principles
   Understanding the fundamental principles of nature, such as the cycle of creation and destruction, can profoundly alter one’s perception of the world. Even if these teachings are not immediately recalled, they are absorbed into the subconscious, influencing one’s being. This inherent knowledge can manifest spontaneously in moments of crisis, guiding individuals to act in ways that preserve life.

5. The Body as a Shadow and the Wonder of Existence
   The human body is merely a shadow, akin to the shadow cast by the sun. It is a temporary form, a fleeting reflection. This understanding should lead to a profound appreciation for the miraculous nature of life itself.

6. The Hierarchy of Consciousness: From Hardware to Heavenware
   The world can be understood through a hierarchical progression of “wares,” starting from the most basic:
   Hardware: Represents the lowest level of consciousness, akin to the physical world and basic scientific understanding.
   Software: A slightly more advanced stage, where human language and thought are inputted into artificial intelligence systems.
   Mindware: A level of consciousness that current science has not yet fully achieved, encompassing thoughts and voices.
   Spiritware: A higher spiritual dimension.
   Heavenware: The ultimate level, representing the divine realm, where Huh Kyung-young operates.

7. The Unchanging Truth of Numbers
   In a world of constant change, numbers stand as the sole unchanging and trustworthy element. Unlike words, which can be misinterpreted or manipulated, numbers remain constant and truthful. This inherent honesty is why many religious figures are drawn to numbers.

8. The Ephemeral Nature of Life and the Inevitability of Time
   Everything in the world, except numbers, is subject to change. Youth fades into old age, and life inevitably leads to death. Time progresses relentlessly, bringing each individual closer to their ultimate end.

9. The Wisdom of Conserving Life’s Flame
   Just as a candle’s flame consumes its wax, life gradually diminishes. However, by protecting the candle’s wax from flowing away, its wick remains saturated, allowing it to burn significantly longer. This analogy illustrates the importance of conserving one’s vital energy and resources.

10. The Digital Nature of Artificial Intelligence
    Artificial intelligence operates entirely on numbers. All knowledge and information are digitized and inputted as numerical data. From personal identification numbers to barcodes, everything is translated into a numerical format for AI processing.

11. The Limitations of AI and the Higher Realms of Consciousness
    While AI excels at processing numerical data, it cannot comprehend “mindware,” which transcends mere numbers. Beyond mindware lies “spiritware” and ultimately “Heavenware,” the realm of the divine. Human understanding typically operates within the first two levels, while the divine operates at the highest level.

12. The Symbolism of the Blue Serpent Year (Eulsa Year)
    The upcoming year, the Eulsa Year, is symbolized as the “Blue Serpent.” This designation is a complex interplay of celestial stems and terrestrial branches, where “Eul” represents a celestial stem and “Sa” represents a terrestrial branch, signifying the serpent. This symbolic representation is intricate and challenging for AI to fully grasp due to its nuanced meaning.

13. The Challenge of Communicating Profound Truths
    Explaining profound concepts to those with limited understanding is akin to a Harvard professor teaching kindergarteners. It requires simplifying complex ideas, which can be a challenging yet rewarding endeavor.

14. The Advantage of Scarcity in Receiving Divine Attention
    When fewer people gather at Haneulgung, there is more space and individual attention. This scarcity leads to greater appreciation and a more profound experience, much like a shop with few customers treats each one like royalty.

15. The Nature of “Hardware” Individuals
    Individuals who are “hardware” in their thinking struggle to adapt to new information or variations in concepts. They prefer straightforward, unchanging ideas, making complex or nuanced discussions difficult for them.

16. The Symbolic Significance of Jerusalem and Haneulgung’s Topography
    The New Jerusalem is not a physical city in the Middle East but Haneulgung in Korea. The original Jerusalem is situated on high ground, with a significant elevation difference from the Dead Sea. Similarly, Haneulgung is located on elevated terrain, approximately 400 meters above sea level, mirroring the commanding presence of a fortress.

17. The Architectural Principle of Authority and Weight
    Historically, structures built on elevated ground, such as fortresses or grand residences, conveyed authority and importance. A house built on a raised foundation appears more substantial and commanding. This architectural principle reflects a desire to project power and dignity.

18. The Story of Kim Gyo Gak and the Bodhisattva of Earth Store
    Kim Gyo Gak, a Korean monk, became the revered Bodhisattva of Earth Store in China. Known for his towering stature and exceptional compassion, he dedicated his life to helping the poor, even to the point of giving away his clothes. To avoid shame, he would bury himself in the earth, leaving only his head exposed, thus earning the title “Bodhisattva of Earth Store,” meaning “Earth Treasury Bodhisattva.” This act of extreme generosity and self-sacrifice made him a living deity in China.

19. The Challenge of Encoding Compassion in AI
    The profound act of compassion demonstrated by Kim Gyo Gak, where he sacrificed his own comfort for others, presents a significant challenge for AI. Encoding such complex human emotions and motivations into software is incredibly difficult.

20. The Enduring Legacy of Kim Gyo Gak and the 16 Incarnations
    Kim Gyo Gak’s spiritual power was so immense that he underwent 16 incarnations, each time leaving behind a mummified body, known as a “Dungsinbul,” which did not decompose. These 16 Dungsinbul are preserved at Guhwasa Temple in China, attracting millions of tourists annually. This phenomenon demonstrates the extraordinary spiritual capabilities of the Korean people.

21. The Prophecy of the Coming of Jesus and the End of the Old Ways
    Sakyamuni Buddha prophesied the coming of Jesus, stating, “When Jesus comes, my path will be a lamp without oil.” This signifies that the teachings of Sakyamuni would become obsolete with the arrival of Jesus, who would bring a new, more potent spiritual path. This prophecy points to the arrival of the Second Coming of Jesus in Korea.

22. The Limitations of Buddhist Teachings in Attaining True Heaven
    The eight treasures of Buddhism—enlightenment, nirvana, liberation, bodhi, prajna, samadhi, non-self, and Buddhahood—are incredibly difficult for humans to achieve. While these concepts offer profound philosophical insights and psychological tools for self-control, they do not lead to the true Heaven. Nirvana, often mistaken for Heaven, is merely a state of mind within the human realm, whereas Heaven is a distinct, external realm.

23. The Deception of False Religions and the Arrival of the True Savior
    Before the arrival of the true divine being, false religions proliferate, misleading many. These religions are likened to a sinking ship, with their leaders abandoning the passengers. The true savior, however, arrives with a massive vessel, extending countless ropes to rescue humanity from the turbulent sea of suffering.

24. The Rescue of Humanity and the Power of Blessing
    The current world is a turbulent sea, with humanity adrift after the departure of past spiritual leaders. The true savior, Huh Kyung-young, appears with a colossal spaceship, extending millions of ropes to rescue all. Through his blessings, even a small number of individuals can save billions, highlighting the immense power of his divine intervention.

25. The Three Poisons and the Path to Overcoming Suffering
    The root causes of human suffering are the “three poisons”: greed, anger, and ignorance. These poisons lead to the “three evil paths” or hells. By relinquishing greed, all other afflictions disappear, enabling one to overcome any hardship.

26. The Importance of Humility and Detachment from Material Possessions
    Detachment from material possessions and worldly desires is crucial for true happiness. Even in the face of financial ruin, embracing humility and simplicity can lead to inner peace. When one sheds their ego and pride, the universe provides, as all people are inherently angelic.

27. The Distinction Between Philosophy and Divine Guidance
    Sakyamuni Buddha was a philosopher who taught how to control the mind, but his teachings lacked the vital energy of life. Huh Kyung-young, on the other hand, is a divine being who guides individuals to the spiritual realm, providing the essential life energy.

28. The Cure for the Three Poisons: Precepts, Concentration, and Wisdom
    The “three poisons” of greed, anger, and ignorance are spiritual diseases that can be cured by “precepts, concentration, and wisdom.” These three practices act as a powerful medicine to overcome these afflictions.

29. The Ten Commandments: Old Testament vs. New Testament
    The Ten Commandments, as interpreted in the Old Testament, prescribed severe punishments for transgressions like murder, adultery, and theft. However, the New Testament, as taught by Jesus, emphasized forgiveness and mercy, advocating for the salvation of sinners rather than their condemnation. This shift from “an eye for an eye” to “forgiveness and love” led to Jesus’s crucifixion by those who adhered to the old laws.

30. The Hypocrisy of Religious Leaders and the Persecution of the Divine
    Throughout history, religious leaders, entrenched in their own doctrines, have often failed to recognize or have actively persecuted divine figures. They prioritize their established systems over the true message of the divine, leading to the condemnation and suffering of those who bring new truths.

31. The Cycle of Suffering and the Arrival of Sweetness
    Life is a cycle of bitter and spicy experiences, representing countless hardships. However, this cycle eventually culminates in sweetness, symbolizing the arrival of a new era of joy and relief. This transition from suffering to sweetness is a divine promise.

32. Haneulgung as the New Jerusalem and the Source of Sweet Water
    Haneulgung is the true New Jerusalem, a place where the bitterness of the past gives way to sweetness. Unlike the old Jerusalem, which is a land of scarcity and suffering, Haneulgung is blessed with abundant, sweet spring water. This water, symbolizing divine grace, is so delightful that even children prefer it over ordinary water.

33. The Contrast Between Old and New Jerusalem
    The old Jerusalem remains a “City of a Thousand Hardships,” plagued by conflict and sorrow, symbolized by its “Wailing Wall.” In contrast, Haneulgung, the New Jerusalem, is a “City of Sweetness,” a place of joy, song, and abundant, life-giving spring water. The descendants of those who rejected the divine in the old Jerusalem are destined to mourn, while those at Haneulgung rejoice.

34. The Three Categories of Sins and the Divine Law
    Sins can be categorized into three types:
    Physical Sins: Killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct.
    Verbal Sins: Lying, deceptive speech, divisive talk, and harsh words.
    Mental Sins: Greed, anger, and ignorance.
    These categories encompass the various ways in which humans transgress.

35. The Severity of the New Testament’s Moral Standard
    While the New Testament emphasizes forgiveness, its moral standard is far more rigorous than that of the Old Testament. It condemns not only outward actions but also inner thoughts and desires. For instance, merely looking at a woman with lust is considered adultery. This broader definition of sin makes the New Testament more demanding, even as it offers grace.

36. The Ultimate Judgment and the Coming of the Ox
    The current era will culminate in a severe judgment, where only the righteous will be spared. The world will experience immense suffering, leading to a new ice age. However, during this period, the divine will return, symbolized by the “Ox,” bringing an era of sweetness and renewal.

37. The Prophecy of the Ox and the End of Buddhism
    Buddhist scriptures, such as the “Ten Ox Herding Pictures,” depict the search for an ox, symbolizing the ultimate truth. The arrival of the ox signifies the culmination of Buddhist teachings and the end of the need for temples. This prophecy indicates that the divine, represented by the ox, will appear in the East, bringing a new spiritual era.

38. Haneulgung: The Sacred Land of the Ox’s Cry and Abundant Water
    Haneulgung is the sacred land where the “cry of the ox” is heard, symbolizing the arrival of the divine. This holy site is blessed with an abundance of sweet spring water, unlike the arid land of Jerusalem. This water, gushing forth from the earth, signifies divine grace and prosperity.

39. The Divine Power and the Danger of Underestimation
    The divine presence at Haneulgung is not to be underestimated. Those who dismiss it risk making a grave mistake. The teachings and phenomena at Haneulgung are beyond conventional understanding, representing a profound spiritual reality.

40. The Power of Divine Light and the Transformation of Saul
    Divine light possesses immense power, capable of blinding those who encounter it directly. Just as Saul was temporarily blinded by a divine light, individuals who experience such a powerful manifestation are profoundly transformed. The divine, however, can temper this light to allow for interaction without overwhelming humans, demonstrating immense control and compassion.

41. The Principle of Interdependence: “This Arises, Therefore That Arises”
    The principle of “This arises, therefore that arises” emphasizes the interconnectedness of all things. Nothing exists without a cause or a connection. This fundamental truth applies to all phenomena, including the presence of the divine.

42. The Path of Self-Benefit and Other-Benefit
    There are three paths of action:
    Self-Benefit, Other-Harm: Actions that benefit oneself but harm others. These are to be avoided.
    Self-Benefit, Other-Benefit: Actions that benefit both oneself and others. These are encouraged.
    Self-Harm, Other-Benefit: Actions that harm oneself but benefit others. This is the path of a Bodhisattva, exemplified by Kim Gyo Gak, who sacrificed everything for the welfare of others. While difficult, such acts of self-sacrifice are highly revered.

43. The Power of Gratitude and Spiritual Growth
    Expressing gratitude in all aspects of life is crucial for spiritual growth and elevating one’s spiritual level. A heart filled with thanks attracts more blessings and accelerates one’s journey towards higher consciousness.

44. Haneulgung: The White Heaven Transit Station
    Haneulgung is described as the “White Heaven Transit Station,” a sacred place where the divine descends. It is a place of immense spiritual power, where dragons play with wish-fulfilling jewels, phoenixes embrace their eggs, and golden roosters lay their eggs. It is the chosen homeland, guided by the sound of the ox’s cry, leading individuals to their true spiritual home.

45. The Unique Spiritual Atmosphere of Haneulgung
    Haneulgung offers a unique spiritual experience, unlike any other place on Earth. Celestial beings, such as archangels and fairies, dance with grace, their movements imbued with divine energy. The music and atmosphere are profoundly refreshing, transporting listeners to the White Heaven.

46. The Power of Mindware and Interconnectedness
    Mindware, a subtle form of telepathy, allows for a deep connection between individuals. This “mind-to-mind” communication, though often felt weakly by humans, signifies a profound interconnectedness.

47. The Miraculous Blessings of Haneulgung
    Haneulgung is a place of miracles and blessings. Through divine power, individuals experience unexpected good fortune, such as receiving unemployment benefits early or turning a small investment into a substantial sum. These events serve as a testament to the transformative power of Haneulgung.

48. The Message of Peace and Reconciliation
    The core message of Haneulgung is one of peace and reconciliation. In a world plagued by conflict, the divine calls for an end to fighting and a return to harmony. This message, though often met with resistance, is a plea for humanity to embrace peace.

49. The Philosophical Inquiry into Existence and Harmony
    The song “Why Not Reconcile” poses profound philosophical questions about the universe and humanity’s place within it. It asks why, despite our limited understanding of creation, we engage in conflict instead of seeking reconciliation. It suggests that, like puppets, we are all in the same boat, knowing nothing, and therefore should strive for peace.
