2025.03.15. 1483Photos of Huh Kyung-young
Script: March 15, 2025. Episode 1483 Huh Kyung-young’s Photo!
Nice to meet you. You are someone who comes to Haneulgung day after day, like a traveling salesman in the countryside. When you come here, there is a divine being. You don’t go on business trips, do you? You don’t go overseas, either. So, as long as you come, they are there. It’s not like your husband is always at home, is it? It’s not like your wife is always at home, is it? But at Haneulgung, they are always there when you come. As long as you come, they are waiting. Ah, what kind of person is that who is always waiting? I gave lectures in the mornings twelve months of the year. And I give lectures in the afternoons, too. So, there is never a day I don’t give a lecture. The morning lectures are fun. I gave a lecture in the morning, but since it’s Saturday again, I have to do it in the afternoon. I give a tremendous number of lectures. There are so many people who have watched my lectures. There are many famous people as well. Today, we are going to look at photos of Huh Kyung-young’s past.
You’ve met all the big names in the Buddhist community in Korea. They all know me well. You know all the big names in Christianity, too. I have quite a few photos taken with these famous people, but since I don’t have time to show them all, I’ll just show you a few. This is a photo of me with Pastor Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church. There are several other photos, too. Back then, Pastor Cho’s flower and my flower looked exactly the same, didn’t they? This isn’t just any ordinary occasion. This photo is from several decades ago. It’s old. Ah, yes, it’s been several decades. This one, well, the kids did a little bit of retouching. This person was completely young back then. Ah, move this one aside. Pastor Cho was young then. This is from about thirty-something years ago. It’s very old. The kids tried to make it look pretty or something, but it was pointless.
I have a photo taken with President Kim Dae-jung. A photo taken with President Kim Dae-jung. So, when I was young, I was extremely close with the big names in the religious world. Pastor Cho Yong-gi, Pastor Kim Poong-il, Pastor Ok Han-eum, and many other pastors. Pastor Oh Jung-hyun of Sarang Church is from Naesudong Church, where I used to attend. So, Pastor Oh is the successor to those various pastors who were there. Who raised Pastor Oh Jung-hyun? It was Pastor Ok Han-eum. So, they are all connected to Naesudong Church. I was there as the pastor’s son. That was when I completely severed ties with Christianity. You could say I severed them even more than the theology professors do now. Of course, how they see it and how I see it are different.
Also, regarding the Jogye Order’s Buddhist Bible and the Tripitaka, I distributed hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during my time of service. So, even now, if you have any Buddhist scriptures or Christian Bibles listed as donors under the name Huh Kyung-young, bring them to me, and I will pay for your transportation and the cost. I cannot find them right now. I distributed hundreds of thousands of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures for free. But I’m telling you, there are some where my name is written. I didn’t write it on some because they were labeled as free offerings, but I did write it on others. So, the amount of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles I bought and distributed from the Dongguk University Translation Center is enormous. But the recipients think they are being given for free. They think the church is giving them away for free. They think the temple is giving them away for free. So, I promoted Buddhism and Christianity extensively. When was that? When I was young.
So, if there are people who possess my Buddhist scriptures—of course, there are probably tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands—who have them. But they might have just thrown them away. As for the color, while the Bible comes in various shades, the color of Buddhist scriptures is a light brown. There are two colors: light brown and navy blue. If you were to put a value on the Buddhist scriptures that Huh Kyung-young gives out, they would be worth about 10 billion won. Then, the Christian Bible would probably be worth around 10 billion won as well. I distributed those for free using my own money when I was young. So, I didn’t just provide free meals as a form of service for 55 years. From the scriptures of these saints, like the Analects and Mencius, I simply distributed them to everyone.
Why did those saints distribute them like that? Our nation’s illiteracy rate was low. It was 80% to 90%. People didn’t know how to read. So, to those who could read, I gave them these. You know the Tripitaka Koreana is a huge volume of Buddhist scriptures? But the ones I gave out are this size. In terms of thickness. It’s the thickness of the Bible. The Tripitaka is a bit shorter than the Bible. It is labeled as a “Buddhist holy text.” It isn’t called a “Buddhist scripture.” It is labeled as a “Buddhist holy text,” and it was published by the Translation Center at Dongguk University. However, I started distributing these books when I was still very young. I gave away all the books with the money you all spent on alcohol and coffee. It’s quite different.
So, Pastor Cho, who is that person who takes photos like that with? He doesn’t even take pictures like that with his congregation. He isn’t the type of person to take photos like this. It was just the two of them. Isn’t that so? Now, let’s take a look at the photo he took with Oh Nok-won, the President of the Buddhist General Administration.
So, Pastor Cho was the biggest heavyweight in the Buddhist and Christian communities at that time. This is a Buddhist event in Yeouido. This was when I was very young. I see myself right here, don’t I? This is the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, Venerable Chantananta. This is the President of the Jogye Order. Do you know who this person is? Look down here, look up. This is the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, Venerable Chantananta. Here is the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, and here is Kang Seok-ju, the President of the Jogye Order. He was the President at that time. President Kang Seok-ju.
If you go there, you’ll see Jingwansa Temple. It is the senior monk from Jingwansa and Bongeunsa Temple in Gangnam. That is the Chief Administrator, Venerable Kang Seok-ju. The Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism is here. The Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism, the Supreme Patriarchs of India and Sri Lanka, and our country’s Chief Administrator—I am right there, aren’t I? This person is an interpreter; an interpreter is attached behind him. Then, with these people, and Buddhism… right here is the Buddhist Lantern Procession, where a million people gathered. It appears, doesn’t it? The Grand Dharma Assembly at the centerpod in Yeouido Plaza—am I not? Is this even possible?
The person next to me is Professor Park Wan-il of Dongguk University, the President of the National Buddhist Lay Association. This person is the President of the National Buddhist Lay Association. This person is the interpreter, and people like that are all standing here. Here in the center, I am standing with Venerable Chantanata, who is recognized as the best in Buddhism. Our President, the Head of the General Administration, is standing here. Next, the President of the National Buddhist Association, the President of the Korean Buddhist Association, is standing here, isn’t he? Where am I? Well, the contributions I have made to the Korean Buddhist community over the years are immeasurable. That is why I was invited to stand here. It is no joke. Can I even go up here? Down below, about a million people are lined up in a lantern procession across Yeouido Square.
What year is this? It was when I was in my 40s. So, imagine how much volunteer work I did during my youth. In Buddhism, the head of the lay association is highly regarded. Then there are the Supreme Patriarchs of each denomination and many other high-ranking officials, but the President of the General Administration… regarding this event on the Buddha’s Birthday in April—is it the Grand Lantern Ceremony? It uses the character ‘Je’ (提). What is the Grand Lantern Ceremony? It is where people from temples all over the country come to wait for the lantern procession returning to downtown Seoul. But before it departs, they hold an event here.
Huh Kyung-young served as an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association. This event was hosted by the General Federation of Korean Buddhist Orders to mark the birthday of Shakyamuni Buddha. Here, the President of the General Administration is here, while the President of the Taego Order is over here, and the President of the Jingak Order is over there. So, is he standing in the center console or not? It’s not that simple. He is here at an event like this. Also present are the President of the Jogye Order, the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the President of the Japanese Buddhist Order. The Supreme Patriarch of Japan, and Professor Park Wan-il, the President of the Korean Buddhist Lay Association, who is here. The fact that they are standing here indicates that they hold a very significant position.
So, this was when I was in my 40s. You know how people in their 40s and 50s do volunteer work in rural communities across the country? So, my activism wasn’t limited to just the President. You saw me raising my hand over there at places like the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice (CCEJ). Who was I with back then? I was standing with Auditor Lee Moon-ok. If you look here, Huh Kyung-young is standing in front of Myeongdong Cathedral, isn’t he? He’s standing here wearing a coat. You can see Auditor Lee Moon-ok here. This person is sitting. You can see the CCEJ representatives here. You can see Representative Kim Geun-tae from the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice. So, what kind of event is this? What kind of event is this? It was a demonstration in front of the cathedral during the military regime. They were saying things like, “Let’s save economic justice,” and “Let’s solve the wealth gap,” and we were standing right here, weren’t we? We were holding picket signs, weren’t we? I was holding a picket sign. I am someone who was very active when I was young.
The Divine Being here isn’t someone who just appeared out of nowhere. He isn’t some person afflicted with “Presidential Syndrome.” The Divine Being came and helped both the Buddhist and Christian communities equally. So, do I have any religious destruction or bias? Are we holding some kind of worship service? Whether it’s priests, Buddhists, or Christians, everyone is here, isn’t they? Therefore, with the arrival of the Divine Being, the era of all religious sects has come to an end. Starting with this, I have already begun distributing scriptures from every religion. If you have my scriptures, you will soon receive a call. When you are contacted, bring me a book, and I will give you 1 million won. Bring me one of my books, and I will give you 1 million won. The title is “Buddhist Scripture.” If you find one, try searching through it. You probably have many. If you find a Bible with my name written in it, bring it to me, and I will give you 1 million won. Your parents likely have it. Young people these days probably have their parents.
So, what kind of service did I perform? I am someone who practiced Dharma giving extensively. I unconditionally distributed Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. Would I distribute them if I had a special religion? I wouldn’t. I unconditionally listen to the words of the saints. I read them unconditionally. That is the kind of person I was. So, is there any prejudice? That is why I was welcomed even in Buddhism. As for Christian pastor Cho Yong-gi, that was a very significant time. He was standing alongside a divine being when he was at the height of his influence in the Christian world, wasn’t he? The flowers are exactly the same. And what is this tie? Turn it around quickly. Where did that tie come from? No, back then, what kind of tie is that? Someone from the Buddhist community must have given it to me. Is that really a Buddhist tie? It is that kind of tie. I wore a red one here, and I usually wear red.
Then there is the photo taken with the Chief Administrators of Korea and Japan, Onokwon. This Chief Administrator was Onokwon; he took the position after Chief Administrator Kang Seok-ju. Chief Administrator Onokwon.
Mr. Divine Being, just a moment.
You have to be prepared when you talk about that. You need to find related things and have them ready. You shouldn’t waste time looking at photos right now. You have to be on standby immediately. Where is the “wait a moment”? If you talk about Buddhism, you have to have a whole lineup of Buddhist photos ready. If you talk about Christianity, you have to have Christian photos ready. I sent that out here last time, remember?
wait a minute.
That is why I tried to find the photos in advance.
We don’t have time, so you shouldn’t be looking for things like that. I’m saying everyone, stand by.
This is a photo of me with Song Chun-hee on the rooftop of a building. We saw it a few days ago. It’s the photo you guys showed me a few days ago. It’s right here. This person is the President of the Jogye Order of Buddhism. The President. The Commander of the Military Chaplain Corps. There are monks inside the military units, aren’t there? Those young soldiers, worshipping like this, performing the ritual over there. The Commander of the Military Chaplain Corps. Who is this person? It looks a bit like him, doesn’t it? I’m standing here. And the person standing next to me is Song Chun-hee. A singer. If you look here, there are people like the head of the Buddhist lay association. These are bigwigs of the Buddhist world. The heads of all temples in the Korean Buddhist community. They are the presidents of the Buddhist world. This President of the Jogye Order is Oh Nok-won. Let’s see if there is text below. Is there no text below? Text below here, text here. Are you saying there is no text on the photo? I’m telling you to upload the photo. There is no text below?
Right, from now on, I need to include text like this. Chief Administrator Oh Nok-won and singer Song Chun-hee. Ms. Song Chun-hee was young at this time, too. And this is when I was young, too. I look good in photos, don’t I? If the photographer takes a good picture of me, I look good. But it’s strange now. But since I took this picture with Pastor Jo, I look really young back then. Even though I was young, when you see Pastor Jo in person, he makes a very good impression. He is nice and dresses very well. My clothes don’t even look like clothes. When Pastor Jo wears clothes, they just have such a great fit. He is a pastor who looks perfect in them, and monks’ clothes are all like this, I guess. I wore this color from top to bottom again. I dressed well. Then, let’s put that photo away. There are quite a lot of photos, aren’t there?
So, the point is that I have been very active in religious matters. It’s not like I just suddenly found the Sky Palace one day. I personally promoted Buddhism, Christianity, and various other religions to those people. If you bring the Bible or scriptures, it is 1 million won. We have the ability to pay that much. I’m not lying; we pay even if our members bring them. And that photo over there that was printed earlier. Now, put up that photo taken with Yi Jin-sam this time—the photo taken with General Yi Jin-sam.
That is General Lee Jin-sam. General Lee Jin-sam, the Army General. I attended Dongguk University Graduate School. So, when I was there, many high-ranking police officials attended Dongguk University. Then, many military personnel also attended the graduate school. So, I suppose there were quite a few high-ranking police officials among my classmates in our graduate school. And then there must be many military generals. Many military generals attended graduate school at Dongguk. That is why some of you who know me have come here to Haneulgung. So, while attending Dongguk University’s Graduate School of Public Administration, you graduated from the Korea Open University Law School. You took a deep social awareness of the police and military while you were there, back when you were very young. But now, this four-star general, a divine being, is General Lee Jin-sam. He is a former Army General, and during the Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan administrations, many of my classmates from Dongguk University’s Graduate School of Public Administration were right next to me. There were many.
Then, who is that? Let’s take a look at the photo taken with Mr. Oh Ji-myung. Mr. Oh Ji-myung was by my side during the presidential election, wasn’t he? Oh my, he drove this car around Daegu for my presidential campaign. One characteristic of this man is that after “Soonpoong Clinic,” he didn’t appear in the media for decades. He stayed at home. He never came out into the public eye or gave an interview to a reporter. But he helped me during my presidential election. Why? It means he likes Huh Kyung-young. He sees him as a human being. So, he has the eye to spot a divine being. If there is one person in the world I respect right now, it is this man. He has an incredible gaze. How did he recognize a divine being? I mean, do you think politicians call out just one or two people?
He didn’t join any political party, neither ruling nor opposition. Instead, he stood right by my side, knowing full well that he would lose. You know what I mean? He campaigned for me even though he knew perfectly well he would lose. He refused interviews with reporters. He refused to appear on any TV shows. After his last appearance with Soonpoong Clinic, no matter how much money they offered him—billions of won—he wouldn’t do commercials or appear on TV. The fact that someone like him, someone who has completely shut himself off from the world, always walked by my side during my presidential campaign—isn’t that amazing? Didn’t he follow a divine being because he had no one else he respected? But how did he recognize a divine being? It is not an easy task. His lifelong honor was at stake. This was broadcast nationwide through the mass media. He knew 100% that this person was going to lose. Ah, he foresaw the future. Later on, he received tremendous blessings.
Mr. Oh Ji-myeong, Level 100 Mu, enter. What is your wife’s name? Madam Yoo Yeon-hee, Level 100 Mu, enter.
She is someone who doesn’t ask for even 10 won for transportation. Her volunteering is just amazing. Outsiders talk about Huh Kyung-young this and that based on fake media, but I am not that kind of person. Since my youth, I have hung out with the bigwigs of our country’s religious world. I didn’t meet nameless people in that religious community; I went around meeting only the top figures. You even came to Haneulgung, didn’t you? Oh, who is this woman? She looks like someone I’ve seen somewhere before.
Do you know who this person is? It is Song Hae, Song Hae. Ah, look at me. These celebrities, those special people, recognize me. They like me. Who is this person? He looks a bit like me, doesn’t he? Taking a photo like this is amazing. For a celebrity, their face is their everything. Depending on who they stand next to, they can be humiliated. But even though people criticize me like that, this person came to me saying, “I don’t see anyone but Huh Kyung-young.” So, do you think that celebrity wouldn’t have any information? You don’t know? You watch all the broadcasts. He’s a broadcaster. He doesn’t go out with anyone other than Huh Kyung-young. Don’t invite anyone. Why is he like this? He knows how to judge people. He is a truly sharp person. Well, his wife is a stunning beauty, but anyway, whether you see him or not, he is a remarkable person. That is why he is the first person I have ever given a Level 1,000.
So, the people I meet aren’t trivial. They all like me. Even famous pastors like Pastor Kim Poong-il, who owns a thousand churches—and famous pastors like Ok Han-eum and Hong Geun-seok—are all like friends to me, even though there is a age difference of more than ten years between us. They come to me for advice. When I discuss the direction of their churches or debate theories, they ask, “Mr. Huh Kyung-young, how did you know that?” I’m telling you, they are just moved. So, people who really understand me quickly figure out who I am. That is how they keep inviting me over to eat together and become close.
So, they consult me about things like their children’s problems, their wives’ problems, or church matters. When
I handle it for them, it is accurate. You ask, “How does Mr. Heo know such things so well?” Even running such a large church, they don’t know. You understand. That is why we are ruined if we fail to discern properly. That is why we have angels with us who can discern. But people like that don’t have angels with them. How could they possibly know? For example, they say, “I am planning to move the graves of my mother and father, whom I have loved for a long time, using this leap month. Divine Being, Chairman Heo, what do you think?” Then, even regarding the auspicious and inauspicious events in their own homes, they must ask me for a conclusion. I do not believe what is asked elsewhere.
I tell them, “That date is fine. When and how do you proceed?
Don’t move it to October. Just leave it
as it is. So, leave it exactly as it is. Don’t try to do anything with the grave.” Then, those pastors listen to everything I say. But they ask the pastors about it too. Famous pastors ask them what to do about both of them: “My father is in the countryside, and my mother passed away first and is at some Christian cemetery in Seoul.” Then I tell them. Venerable monks ask them too. They say they have no way of knowing. But they ask how Mr. Heo knows all of that. They say it feels like a huge weight has been lifted from their bodies.
So, he went to the countryside. He went to his father’s grave in the countryside to ask the villagers if he wanted to move it, but everyone had a different opinion. Some said he shouldn’t move it, others said he needed to bring his mother over, and still others said his father had to go to a temple. His mother was in Seoul, and his father was in the countryside since he had passed away first. So, that famous pastor didn’t know whether his mother should go to his father’s grave or to his father’s grave. His father didn’t even attend church, so he didn’t know if his mother needed to go to a Christian cemetery. He just asked the angel, and the pastor told him that his mother had gone to the countryside.
It comes out like that. Then, this is a world that those people cannot know through knowledge. That is the spiritual world. Next, try uploading the photos you took with the presidents, the ones running for office this time. My younger days were so glamorous, weren’t they? I did all sorts of things. You can see this. Here, you know who Lee Jae-myung and President Yoon are. Sim Sang-jung, the Governor of Gyeonggi Province, and here, Ahn Cheol-soo. But here, there is someone praying, and there is someone else praying. What am I doing here? I am offering incense. This scene is also magnificent. Because these people are here, this isn’t just any ordinary place, is it? There is someone like this here, isn’t there? So, this isn’t just any ordinary place.
This is Mr. Kim Young-sam’s grave, right here at the National Cemetery. But it’s my turn to pay my respects. Everyone is wearing black ties. There are five presidential candidates… ah, actually six. Six presidents. This is quite a commemorative photo. And now it’s my turn to do this. We are offering incense, aren’t we? Everyone is standing there while I burn the incense. It’s a magnificent photo. Do you ever have the opportunity to offer incense together with five past presidential candidates like this? This opportunity took place at the National Cemetery, didn’t it? Still, this photo was taken well. Isn’t it? It’s cool. This is only possible because he is a divine being.
This was during the COVID-19 pandemic. So, everyone was wearing masks while campaigning. COVID-19 during the election campaign. Everyone wearing masks. It’s quite something to have COVID-19 during a presidential election. Besides this photo, let’s look at the one we took with President Yoon that day. The photo taken with Lee Jae-myung. The photo taken with Candidate Lee Jae-myung. Well, there are plenty of political photos, but my photo came out well, didn’t it? Burning incense. Two, two, three, four, five, six. But what do you think of my face? Well, you have to look closely at this forehead. It’s not just any forehead. It’s not just any forehead.
It’s a forehead that leads the future world. This isn’t the face of the President of Korea; it is the face that leads the future world.
But imagine this person went somewhere and served for 55 years, distributing hundreds of thousands of scriptures—so many Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. Next week, if someone reports it and brings it in, there will likely be someone to collect the money. Then you will see those scriptures. If you look at them, you will know what year they are from. I distributed them all, and now there are none left. There are none at all. But the people standing in the front row—they are supposedly presidential candidates. They look cool. But what I am saying is that you have to look like this. Look closely at the foreheads of the people standing here. The way the color is received is different. That is why it is extremely important.
Is there anyone who, at a young age, earned money on their own and distributed about a million copies of Buddhist scriptures and a million copies of the Bible? They would have just pocketed the money, their eyes bloodshot, trying to buy stocks or something; would they have played around for free like I did? But when the recipient comes to collect the 1 million won and is asked how they obtained the books, they will likely say they just received them. If they bring it as proof, we will take a picture of it. We are giving away such thick scriptures, one by one, for free, and distributing them is actually work in itself. Whenever there is a Buddhist event, you have to go there and hand them out. It’s not like you just look at passersby, walkers on the street, ask them if they believe in Buddhism, and hand them over.
When Buddhists hold events, they hand out thousands of copies, one by one, at the venue. If there is a Christian event, they hand them out. Is that good or bad? Did they only hand out umbrellas? They handed out free umbrellas when it rained. They handed out scriptures. They handed out Bibles. Was there a young man like that back then? Calling him a thief? Calling him some kind of swindler? It’s really nonsense, everyone. The police don’t know anything and think I’m some kind of criminal. They are so incredibly ignorant that I am showing them my photo.
And regarding the title of Huh Kyung-young’s photo… I need to write a title on Huh Kyung-young’s photo today.
Photos of Huh Kyung-young!
Got it? Today’s title is “Huh Kyung-young’s Photos.” So when people search for Huh Kyung-young’s photos, you can tell just by looking at this.
Oh my, meeting Pastor Cho wasn’t just a casual encounter, was it? We have these photos because we’re close friends. So, the point is that I made a name for myself with many older people when I was young. Chief Administrator Kang Seok-ju, Chief Administrator Oh Nok-won, Chief Administrator Hwang Jin-gyeong—all the past Chief Administrators were close to me. I haven’t met the recent Chief Administrators, though. Look at Chief Administrator Hwang Jin-gyeong, Chief Administrator Oh Nok-won, Chief Administrator Kang Seok-ju, and Chief Administrator Lee Jin-gwan, who was the President of Dongguk University. Lee Jin-gwan served as Chief Administrator, too. I’m telling you, Chief Administrator Lee Jin-gwan served after this person. After him, Chief Administrator Lee Jin-gwan, and then Venerable Beopjang, Chief Administrator Beopjang… I just met every single former Chief Administrator and president of the Christian Council of Korea one after another. You can tell from my youth. And whenever there was an event, they would put me right in the front, in the center, didn’t they? Those photos are the proof.
So, regarding the “Divine Person,” if that “Divine Person” were just an ordinary con artist, then the Buddhist community would be full of the Supreme Patriarchs of Sri Lanka, the Supreme Patriarch of South Korea, and the Supreme Patriarch of Japan. There are the General Secretaries of the Taego Order, the Jingak Order, and the Lotus Sutra Order lined up one after another. Where, then, is the “Divine Person”? Right in the very center, at the centerpod. The President of the Lay Buddhist Association of Korea is right here. Isn’t that right? They are all there, but this person was walking around carrying a fan. Chantananta, the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, is carrying a huge fan. This one. He is holding the fan tightly, and he looks very scary. This person over here. General Secretary Kang Seok-ju has passed away. He has passed away. Now, I don’t even remember wearing clothes like that at the time. The color of the clothes is nice. That is the color of a dove.
So, in a way, that is gray, and it looks similar to this. It’s a bit similar to the color of a monk’s robe, but I guess that color suits me well anyway. In my opinion, the color looks good. It’s sophisticated. Gray suits me well. Anyway, this is the 13th floor of the Hankook Ilbo. This is where the Miss Korea pageant is held. Yes, I have actually participated in judging the Miss Korea pageant. One of Mr. Jang Ki-young’s sons is a schoolmate of mine. So I went to the Hankook Ilbo a lot. That’s why I met Chairman Jang Ki-young often. Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office was on the 10th floor of the Hankook Ilbo. At that time, he was the Deputy Prime Minister. This was during the time when President Park was in office. He served as both Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Economic Planning Board. That was Jang Ki-young, the Chairman of the Hankook Ilbo. But the secretary in Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office on the 10th floor is my classmate, and he is Chairman Jang Ki-young’s adopted son.
So, he was a high school student. But even though he was a high school student, he ran errands in Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office. Later, after Chairman Jang passed away, he served as the president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate until he passed away about twenty-something years ago. He had a short life; his name was Jeon Gil-chang. He was Jeon Gil-chang, and he died at a young age while serving as the president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate. He was a high school student who studied on his own just like me. But Chairman Jang took a good look at him and raised him like an adopted son. So, even when he came home from school, he had to go to Chairman Jang’s office. So, he would come out of that room only when the Chairman went home to sleep.
So, I did that thing where I kept following people around. It was similar to a boy. Everyone in Korea and Japan knows about Jung Gil-chang. So, Chairman Jang Kang-jae is roughly the same age as Jung Gil-chang. Under Chairman Jang Kang-jae, there is another younger brother, and Moon-hee was his daughter-in-law at the time. So I went and saw Moon-hee several times. Chairman Jang Ki-young’s house was in Seosomun. Seosomun, Seodaemun. Since it was in Seosomun, you can see it like this. Her name wasn’t Moon-hee; what was it? Ms. Moon-hee’s name. So, the fact that there was a tremendous past was interesting.
Let’s take a look at the photos from our National Revolutionary Party National Convention. Photos from the National Revolutionary Party National Convention. Now, what is this? These are the women who came up to me holding flowers. There are about 400 people just bringing bouquets to me. This is a photo taken with 400 people coming up holding bouquets. There were just this many people who came up holding these bouquets. Next, let’s look at the full group photo. Since not everyone could go up. The full group photo. There are so many. About 100,000 people gathered. Let’s take a look at the video. Let’s take a look at the video, too. It’s interesting. It’s amazing. This is them coming up holding these bouquets.
Please stand on the red carpet in front.
I mean, since it took two hours just to receive the bouquet, complaints started to explode. So, we had no choice but to finish it in two hours. This is no ordinary hardship.
I will introduce myself again. Yes, please do not go inside and stand at the front. Please do not take the bouquets. Leave them here. Leave them here. The bouquets will be stacked on the stage.
There are so many. It took two hours just to receive these bouquets, so the venue was absolute chaos. See the line of people here waiting to give bouquets? You know, about 400 people came holding bouquets—I couldn’t even speak. This whole thing just went around in a circle.
We have now presented bouquets to 50 people. There are 250 left. Please move quickly.
There’s that saying, too.
Okay, I will repeat the announcement. Those presenting flower bouquets, please move quickly. We have scheduled 15 minutes for the checkout here. Yes, the next items are currently being prepared, so please move quickly.
Look at that, stop right there. There is no history of receiving bouquets like that at a party convention. At all other conventions, there is no such event when people come up holding bouquets. But we were the ones who took them because everyone was vying to offer them.
As a result, the line to receive bouquets seemed endless. We received bouquets from about 400 people. There is no precedent for that. Also, in the history of party conventions, there has never been a gathering of this many people. I’ve seen plenty of conventions held by both the ruling and opposition parties, haven’t I? For something like ours, there are unimaginable crowds—around 100,000 people—both outside and inside; you simply can’t enter. We held an event like this, didn’t we?
How many years ago was that? It’s 2019. What year is it today? So, we have four more years left before it reaches ten. Is that right? It hasn’t been ten years yet? It hasn’t. Right, the history of our party’s founding hasn’t even reached ten years yet. But I founded the party a long time ago—I started when I was forty—so I’ve created parties many times, haven’t I? This wasn’t achieved in a day or two. It’s not like a divine being just went somewhere, built a heavenly palace, and a human simply arrived. I’m telling you, it possesses an immense history and tradition. Enormous.
We are currently preparing the next items, so I would appreciate it if you could move quickly.
Isn’t there a photo of me coming in? A photo of me entering. Well, the photo of me receiving the bouquet is from way back, but I don’t mean the bouquet photo of my entry. I mean
a photo of me coming in from the outside. Our Sky Palace needs to be spacious. It can’t be cramped. No, not the bouquet photo; there is a photo of me making my first entry from the outside. You have to go find it while you’re still looking at that.
He sends out one person. A famous world-class singer and another singer appear from here and there. A world-class pop star appears from here and there. Wait, isn’t my entrance photo coming out? Looking at photos is fun. Well, I’ll give you a short lecture while we look at them. You don’t just look at the photos. For the convention, you have to find that photo first. The rest of the photos are secondary.
Currently, this is the largest event hall at KINTEX in Korea. It is the widest venue at KINTEX, and it has no end in this direction or that direction. This is the middle; the area around where these white tables are is roughly the center, but it is wide from side to side. It is an incredibly spacious place. So, we can build our building like this, but it needs to be this wide.
That person is President Kim Dae-jung. The person sitting right next to him, right next to President Kim Dae-jung, is me. It’s me. This is me sitting next to the President, and this is the same seat as President Kim Dae-jung. This is in front of the New Democratic Party National Convention. Why was I invited here? Famous politicians, people older than me, liked me so much. So, you see, I’m sitting on the podium next to him? Sitting right here. This is the Chairman, the National Convention Chairman, and sitting next to him. That’s me. Back then, because I held my head up like this, I looked like I had no hair, but I actually had plenty of hair at that time. President Kim Dae-jung is raising his hand here, and here is me. I’m raising my hand right at the very front like this, aren’t I? This was a dozen years or so before President Kim Dae-jung became president. I mean, it was before he became president. It was back in 1989. September 31, 1989.
So, if you look at those Democratic Party lawmakers, they are people with whom I could have a conversation back in the pitch-black past. I mean, President Kim Dae-jung and I could have a conversation. So, the people sitting here, in front and behind, are lawmakers. They are right here. It’s a really old photo. So, I saw all the high-ranking officials who served as our country’s presidents just in their younger days. But if I were to reveal everything, it would be beyond your imagination. You’ve never heard the story about me distributing Bibles and the Tripitaka, have you? People are going to show up with those now. If you look at those books, they are truly ancient. No one knows that I distributed hundreds of thousands of Bibles and the Tripitaka like that.
However, since I am a divine being, it does not matter whether my good fortune leaves or anything like that even if I make it known now. Still, I hadn’t boasted about it. Even regarding this, this person—and Mr. Kim Dae-jung—had not yet become president at that time. But we met whenever he went in and out of prison. So, he is someone who secretly cooperated behind the scenes. Therefore, I have deeply imprinted the hearts of people across the political spectrum, regardless of party affiliation. That is the kind of photo it is. From 1989. But when this person stepped down as president, I stepped down with him. This was not the time to step down together. Later, in the presidential election in 1997, he became president. However, ten years later, both this person and I stepped down as presidents.
Back then, was it 1987 or 1997? When I ran in 1997, President Kim Dae-jung was elected. I ran as a competitor back then. So, we know each other. Therefore, I have absolutely never criticized the President—let alone Mr. Kim Dae-jung—or even the Democratic Party or the People Power Party. Why? Because I know all the leaders in those generations. So, I am neither in the opposition nor the ruling party. I know everyone. That is why there is absolutely no criticism.
So, any national leader must go through tribulation. President Kim Dae-jung went to prison about ten times, didn’t he? Well, we all go to prison eventually, but you become a leader only after experiencing such tribulations to become a humble person.
Do you understand? So, even though a divine being was sent down from the White Palace, humans must come to this world and experience tribulation. Just because I came down, I am a “king spoon,” right? A “gold spoon.” I am a king spoon because I was seen from heaven. You are the gold spoons, and that “yellow spoon” must come to the human world and suffer. I came to see why humans commit sins and why they go in that direction.
But wait, isn’t this made incorrectly? Let me try entering that state for a moment. You’ve come. Now that I’m here and experiencing this, it’s not easy, is it? Still, I have been in the exact same environment as you all. But it’s different. I’m telling you, I lived a very unique life. It was all service. Giving things away. I didn’t collect; I did nothing but give things away. The scriptures will arrive next week. Like the Bible. Look, here’s a Huh Kyung-young book. Let’s go collect 1 million won and take it. Ten books would be 10 million won. It looks like quite a bit of money is going to be spent on this.
So, we have photos and other things prepared, what else? You all need to look closely at this photo of Choi Kyu-hah and President Chun Doo-hwan. That is President Park. I was at the ancestral rite. Now, Roh Tae-woo, Chun Doo-hwan, and Choi Kyu-hah are sitting in front. Who is sitting next to me? You all saw it clearly. It was President Park’s secretary. He is right here. Here, I am right here. This person is the Director of the Agency for National Security Planning. Right behind the President are the bodyguards. You cannot sit in the bodyguards’ seats. So, one of these two people is the President. Then I am. I mean, I am the incumbent President. I am sitting here, behind Choi Kyu-hah. That is not an easy seat. These people are all vying for the seat. Do you know who this person is here? In the third row is Park Se-jik. The Chairman of the Olympic Committee is sitting here. But sitting in this second row is not easy. Do you understand what I mean?
This person is Secretary Jo. So, in this seat, this person is the Security Commander, and that Security Commander. Then this person is the secretary and bodyguard. Behind them is Park Se-jik. Those famous politicians are all sitting in a line here behind them. But they are sitting in the front row. This isn’t a seat just anyone can run into and sit in. The security team has strictly set the rules, and they are sitting in an orderly fashion. Isn’t that right? He is sitting in such a seat, yet Huh Kyung-young isn’t someone who just goes around telling lies. He claims that he acted for such a significant purpose, but that it is all fake.
They say even Trump’s photo is fake. If you look over here, Park Geun-hye is right here, isn’t she? And here are Park Seo-young and Park Ji-man. Then these are the bereaved family members. The President, the President, and this person is the Prime Minister. And then here are the bodyguards, this person’s bodyguard, this person’s bodyguard, and this person’s bodyguard. I’m right here, aren’t I? Then are these people just ordinary people? Isn’t that right? Do you know who this person is? Prosecutor General Lee Geun-gye. Lawyer Lee Geun-gye, the Prosecutor General. Mr. Lee Geun-gye’s father was President Park’s elementary school homeroom teacher. You understand. So, the fact that they are all sitting here means they are all people in very important positions, don’t they? This is it. But is this a seat that just anyone can walk in and sit in instantly?
Who is this person? This is Paik Nam-eok, the Chairman of the Republican Party under President Park Chung-hee. You’ve heard the name Paik Nam-eok before, haven’t you? Whose family does this Paik Nam-eok come from? He is the brother of President Park’s mother. You understand. See, here is Chairman Paik Nam-eok of the National Assembly; so, his entire family is sitting here. It’s a magnificent photo, isn’t it? Although I haven’t made this public, it’s no ordinary photograph, is it? It is truly a historical picture. So, I am not some divine being who suddenly appears out of nowhere, selling out someone. I am keeping quiet because I haven’t spoken about it. Because I might be able to reveal it someday. If it’s not true, then just say, “Oh, is that so?”
Who is this person? President Lee Myung-bak. Right here, right here. Well, the photo came out a bit strange, but since this was a party, the pictures were bound to turn out this way. President Lee Myung-bak is right next to me. We were holding glasses together at the time. These are photos where we are standing like this. They are photos of us toasting each other. Look at mine again. This is the photo taken with Park Ji-man. The one with just the two of us. Now, let’s move on to the others. Here is Park Geun-hye. Do you know who this person is? Park Jun-hong. Park Jun-hong. He is the nephew, the son of President Park’s older brother, whom President Park likes the most. His sister is Kim Jong-pil’s wife. Ah, so that connects to that. This person was in my campaign camp during my election, wasn’t he? You know him. Park Jun-hong. He was in my camp, in this person’s camp, wasn’t he?
This is all family. It is all family. Here, here, here, here, over there, Park Geun-hye and me, Park Jun-hong, Park Seo-young, and here is President Park Geun-hye’s eldest daughter, the eldest daughter, Ambassador Han to the U.S. You know the photo I took with the Ambassador to the U.S.? The photo taken at New York Airport with the IOC President, President Park Chung-hee’s son-in-law, and me. Han Seung-soo, Han Seung-soo. There is a photo taken with Han Seung-soo. Ah, here it is. This is the IOC President. What is this person? Kim? Kim, Kim, Kim Yong-woon. This is Ambassador Han Seung-soo to the U.S. This is me; I was standing here, having just arrived at New York Airport. We were taking a shuttle bus. Someone took a photo of
us inside the shuttle bus. Since this gentleman was tired, this is the IOC President. Ambassador Han Seung-soo took all of these photos of us. The person traveling with us—this is the shuttle bus inside the airport. We didn’t even wash our faces on the plane.
This is an old photo. Wow, look at this. These are truly remarkable people. You might think the IOC President is nothing special, but he is recognized globally. Yes, this person is the Ambassador to the U.S., so he represents Korea in the U.S. We just took a plane together, arrived together, and took a shuttle bus to New York Airport. You see this pillar inside the airport? It looks similar to a streetcar. We are on our way to the airport waiting area in this shuttle bus. It is truly an amazing photo. What year is this photo from? Turn it around. This is a photo taken with Park Seo-young. This is a photo taken with Park Geun-hye. This is a photo exhibition of President Park Chung-hee.
So, do you think I know these dates like a ghost? It’s all just being coordinated between us. So, the two of us were walking around together like this, wearing black clothes and black ties. We looked really nice dressed, didn’t we? That’s how we looked back then. You see, reporters are watching from all directions. I’m telling you, they’re taking pictures of us. It’s not like just anyone went up and snapped a photo. They took a picture of the two of us walking around and looking at each other. Do you understand what I mean? It was a long time ago. When we were young. So, play the picture again. It came out well, didn’t it? This one was taken of President Park Geun-hye and KRA Chairwoman Oh Kyung-hee during President Kim Young-sam’s term. Park Geun-hye was at the event venue during President Kim Young-sam’s time.
This is my seat, right here. But when I arrived, Oh Kyung-hee looked at me. But who is smiling the most? Park Geun-hye is smiling the most, isn’t she? Who extended their hand while smiling? Do you think I would grab the hand of someone who is just standing there? No. She says, “You must have never seen President Park Geun-hye smile this broadly before. You really must have never seen her before.” And then she smiles. She extends her hand while smiling,
right? They shake hands. And then she sits next to me. Look at the photo of her sitting. I arrived a little late. She sat down. Yes, this is my seat. This is the bodyguard. Then this… this is just a fake… this is Table No. 1. There are many tables in this venue, but is my seat at Table No. 1 prepared or not? Then do I come over and greet them or not? Do you sit next to them or not?
Is this fake? Don’t even get me started. Look at the photo again. I’m standing here. Now it’s time to salute the flag. Right here. Park Geun-hye, the Chairwoman of the Korea Racing Authority. This person is the Governor of Gyeongbuk, the Governor of Gyeonggi and Gyeongsangbuk-do. Next, behind her is the famous singer, you know? That chubby singer who keeps singing? That woman. Then, behind her are the National Assembly members. The National Assembly members are behind them. So, I’m standing at the very front. The bodyguards are standing like this.
This is the 2006 year-end concert to raise funds for the NGO Seoul Citizens’ Movement to help child heads of households. Then, is this a place just anyone can attend? Only invited guests are there. This person is the organizer. On that day, President Park Geun-hye donated 15 million won. To that child head of household. You understand what I mean. So, with President Park donating 15 million won, the people here must have some significance. Then, this is an event hosted by the Korea Racing Authority (KRA). It is being held inside the KRA. That is why this photo shows only these important people standing in the front row. Then there is the photo of them sitting. A photo of them sitting. They are standing here. This is Oh Kyung-hee, the Chairman of the KRA. And then this person is the Governor of Gyeonggi-do and Gyeongsangbuk-do. This person served as the KRA Chairman and a member of the National Assembly quite a bit, didn’t they? How many times? Who is this person President Park Geun-hye is leaning against? But I was so tired that I fell asleep. I fell asleep soundly, leaning back at an angle.
I wasn’t interested; I wasn’t paying attention to what was right next to me. I was actually dozing off. I was dozing off. I was dozing because the event was dragging on. That’s how busy I was back then. So, looking at this one event, where did I sit, where did I stand, and which table did I sit at before leaving? The seat I sat in earlier was Table 1. Only the event organizer, Park Geun-hye, and I sat there—just the three of us. Are there really no other capable people in South Korea? Isn’t that right? You yourself got scratched on the right and left sides with a razor blade. That is why the person sitting next to you is especially careful. It is a time when you need to be careful. If just anyone sits next to you, it will be a big problem. This, this, this is the kind of time for shaving.
Is it easy to sit next to someone in a situation like that? As soon as you get close, people and bodyguards come looking for you. Back then, when the Divine Being stood here shaking hands, I smiled brightly. And I sat here. What more are you trying to say? There is a photo like that, isn’t there? So, I sat here, and even when I went to sit next to him while lining up after the event, I only sat right here, sitting next to him. This is Table No. 1. The problem is, sitting in this line itself isn’t a spot just anyone can sit in. The organizers of the event aren’t fools. Also, look at Table No. 1 from earlier. When I sat at this Table No. 1, look here at the handshake. He was smiling very brightly when shaking hands. All his teeth were showing. You can see it.
Then why should I explain it in words? You ask why there is a need to explain? They say all the divine beings are fake. He isn’t someone who smiles easily. He doesn’t smile carelessly. You all know him. Have you ever seen a face like that? Now, did he just shake hands with anyone and leave? No, this table is empty. He sits down like this, doesn’t he? And then he goes behind and sits with them, and then goes behind and stands with them. He is most afraid of the person next to him. He is most terrified of the person standing next to him. You know how sometimes that happens when you do things like this? He is letting his guard down. He is letting his guard down. This is a very important story. Even if I don’t explain it in detail, we need to understand what I am talking about.
The two of us took this picture in Washington, D.C.. Has anyone else taken a picture like this in Washington? Washington is all about this bouquet. The lighting wasn’t great, so we look like old men in this photo. And also, this welcome in Washington took place on January 21, 2001. The 21st. And this is the Maryland Democratic Party. What Democratic broadcast invited us? So, there are many people sitting here in front. Korean expatriates are sitting there, and we sat in the chairs in front. Then we took a picture. This isn’t just an ordinary photo. So, you know how people say that I didn’t meet Trump. How much distortion do they do? They distort the truth about a divine being. But someday, you will be able to know.
This is Trump. Is this photo fake? My clothes are in this signature. And this gentleman is standing here, isn’t he? President Lim Cheong-geun. You saw President Lim Cheong-geun’s biography. He took photos with U.S. presidents one after another. He is an incredible person. He doesn’t even touch the shoulder here. That’s right, that’s correct. But if you watch the two of them talking, the President can’t move an inch. Wow, look how well he speaks English and how charismatic he is. We’re both smiling broadly, aren’t we? He’s frowning, isn’t he? He isn’t smiling. He is such a charismatic person, yet he ends up touching the President’s shoulder like this. But he has an incredible resume. He has served only U.S. presidents since he was young. Just look at how many times he has done it. Let me take a look at the photo. This isn’t fake, is it? Look, I’m in Union Station at the U.S. President’s celebratory party. And this person is the co-chair of the election campaign committee, just like the Republican President Bush who invited me. He is the co-chair with the U.S. President.
And didn’t this person invite me? So, well, this is the head monk of Daegaksa Temple in Busan. You know Daegaksa Temple in Busan. He is the head monk of that temple known for its immense wealth. He is a monk. This is what the Bush President party is talking about. This mark is the White House mark. The U.S. White House mark. And this person is Kim Deok-ryong. Representative Kim Deok-ryong is a member of the National Assembly, and do you know who this person is? Representative Park of Mapo. What is his name? He was famous. Representative of Mapo. There is even a photo of this person, Kim Dong-young, with me. I couldn’t meet these people when I met Bush. We met separately, too. Park Geun-hye was also here at this time, along with me, the Senior Presidential Secretary for Economic Affairs, and Son Kil-seung, the Chairman of the Federation of Korean Industries. This person was invited to the Bush party. If you wear this outfit, look.
I’m here. This is Kim Dong-young. And this is Assemblyman Cho Hee-jun, I think. This person is the Mapo Assemblyman, Park… something. It’s been so long. But let’s look at the photos from earlier, comparing this outfit and that one. These people, these people. This is our Union Station Express Party, a party with 300 people from all over the world. A party with 300 people. Not these people, but the one where I’m with the Assembly members. This earlier photo with the Assembly members. There was a photo taken with several people, including Kim Deok-ryong. The photo from a moment ago. No, the photo taken with the Assembly members. The photo that just appeared earlier. Why are we moving on here? The photo taken with Kim Deok-ryong just now.
Isn’t that easy? We need to be able to speak instantly as soon as the words are finished. Is it hard to find the photo that came out just a moment ago? Does this photo take a long time? Look over here. It’s on the roof. Look closely. This is a different place. These people couldn’t go to Bush’s inauguration party; they were at a hotel, a hotel. Look here. The ceiling of the previous one was about 30 meters high. But the ceiling here isn’t even 1 meter, is it? This is a different location. I went to the party where these people were meeting because it was the next party. To take pictures. They asked to see them, so I went, and I saw that several Korean National Assembly members were there. This person and all of them are National Assembly members. They are here, and they attended. But this isn’t the party venue.
Now, bring up the party venue in front of you. The one where the three people were just now. You can’t see the ceiling, can you? The ceiling is over 20 meters high. You can’t see the end. You can see it. You can see it. This is the party venue, and the height of these pillars seems endless. This is just the beginning. It keeps going up. This place is the party venue where Bush was met, and the place where those lawmakers were earlier is not like this. You need to know that. This place, this place, isn’t that place, is it? This is a C-class hotel party, and I just went there after that party ended. Because I heard Park Geun-hye was there. Park Geun-hye was right here. So I went over and took a picture. Since we met, we took pictures of each other. So, it really was a long time ago. These people have all stepped down now, haven’t they?
These were all very prominent figures back then.
Now, regarding the United States, this person here… this party… this party isn’t the one Bush is at. Do you see the roof? The ceiling? This is the venue where the members of Congress were at the party. This photo is different. Do you see this ceiling? This is a hotel. The one from earlier wasn’t a hotel. The ceiling of that party was tens of meters high. It was a grand party. It was a party where only 300 people from around the world attended. It was the first kick-off party for Bush’s inauguration, with only 300 people from the world present. Do you see the roof of this party? These people are at this second party, where they weren’t invited by Bush. If you look here, the ceiling is high. Here, I’m standing with a Senator. This couple is standing here, and if you look, you can see the pillars in the ceiling.
This isn’t a hotel. Do you see the Union Station luxury party hall? The door is this high. This is the height of the entrance. Amazing. And over here is the dressing room, and all these women have taken off their coats. They took off their outer coats. Since it was cold, they were all wearing mink coats, but they were all women wearing black or some other strange colors. As soon as they took off their clothes, a man handed them a ticket. He handed them this key, took their clothes, and went to hang them up. That was the etiquette. But what do I have to take off? Just… I went in exactly as I was wearing them, but the women all took them off. So, do you see? These are all the ladies.
This person is someone like the Vice President of the Korean branch of the Women Entrepreneurs Association. She is from the Women Entrepreneurs Association. She came to the U.S. and was at a party hosted by Bush. This is the Bush party. This is a photo of the Chairman and me. It is
a photo of the Chairman and me. This is not the Union Station party. It is a hotel party. Do you see the ceiling here? That is the roof, and this woman is holding some food. This is the groom and his wife. I wondered if this person here was Mexican? Well, you don’t really see people like that here, but there were people like that at the hotel. There are usually people of color and stuff like that, but at that A-class party I went to, there were absolutely no people like that. Everyone was just gentlemen. Ah, outside, I mean outside the hotel—not the hotel itself, but outside Union Station—there were about 100 limousines, each about 6 to 7 meters long, parked there.
Those are moving cars. Now, this is a hotel. Do you see the roof? Since you can see the roof, we moved here. Everyone here is a Korean expatriate. These are all expatriates. These people are all expatriates. It’s a hotel. This was taken at this hotel. This is also a Chinese woman photographed at the hotel. Chinese women are different right down to their earrings. Ah, do you see? The earrings are absolutely stunning. I mean, speaking to this woman right next to me like this—she is also a Chinese woman—two people were asking me because I’m popular. I mean, even at a party in the US, these people wanted to take pictures with me. Uh, I mean, since people were taking pictures of me like crazy, I asked if I could have one taken too. I was taking pictures as usual, but this woman was the most attractive person among everyone at the party.
You can see it in the photo. She is a young woman. She is slender and dressed like this. It is Chinese style. These are Chinese women; we can communicate a few words in English, but anyway, her smile and facial features are unique. She has a lot of charm and confidence, and her earrings are about 1 meter long. The earrings are m-shaped, m-shaped. “Hello,” look at her taking the phone. “I’m here at the reception desk. This is the hotel.” Look at her talking on the phone while at the reception desk. It’s unique. So, in America, I found that Asian women like this are definitely better. Better than American women. Asians definitely stand out. They have a distinctive look, don’t they? These are all wives of Korean expatriates. These Korean expatriate wives and their spouses. This is the Bush party venue.
The tableware at the Bush party venue is different. All the dishes are fancy, and all the chairs are made of brass. Everything is brass, and they’ve set everything up like this. This is a flower arrangement. It’s placed there, and all these dishes and cups are unique. Hotels don’t have things like that. Hotels are like this, but at the Bush party venue, the furnishings are different, and all the ushers are Black people standing in a line like this. Black people are standing in a long line right behind to serve. If you look, you can see the Black people. They are all Black people standing in line. This is, in its own way, a top-tier party venue for President Bush. Black people are all lined up, and they’re wearing bow ties. Everyone is wearing them—I’m wearing one, this person is wearing one, everyone—but this is the best party in the world.
I go into a place like this and with the world’s best women, like this. But this isn’t a Bush party venue. This is a hotel party venue. A hotel party venue—all these white people here, too—there are beauties among them. But strangely, there are a lot of people who want to take pictures with me. Mostly women who ask to take pictures. Women. This is a hotel. It’s a hotel in Washington. It’s a hotel. Look here, on one side, there’s this. Musical instruments. Now, the hotel lounge. Not this one, the one where they took pictures of that woman earlier. Why is it only this ugly woman? This is an Iranian woman. An Iranian woman. Ah, is this the Swedish woman or something? Anyway, a lot of people took pictures with me. Ah, but they say I didn’t go to the Bush party. No, they say I didn’t go to the Bush party. Then is this fake? Wow, it’s not fake. It’s real. Look at this hairstyle. This, this isn’t that Bush party venue. It’s a hotel, a hotel.
This person, this person… this body, you know. It’s not just a body. When you look at this person, who comes to mind? Look at these people. Wow, hey. But the sullen ones have different faces. Their faces look sullen. Look at the woman. Wow, her butt is huge. The photos are quite interesting. As for the Black people, there weren’t any like this at the first party where they met Bush. But when they came to this hotel, there were tons of women like this. So, when they went to the hotel, the people were very diverse, whereas at the original Bush party venue, there weren’t any women like that. It’s all world-class people sitting there, refined and fun. I wonder if I’ve shown you almost all of my photos?
A little came out. Divine Being
Show me the rest. As for the ones taken in Beijing, China. These were taken at Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China. This one, of course, was taken in China. Let’s look at the one taken in front of Tiananmen. Tiananmen, the one taken in front of Tiananmen. I see this here. The one taken in front of Tiananmen. Wait, this isn’t Tiananmen, is it? The US Capitol and the Chinese Parliament building. No, no, this is where the President of China is. The President is here; in our country’s terms, it’s like the Blue House. And then, here, Xi Jinping is here, in Beijing. Tiananmen, right in front of Tiananmen? The one taken in front of Tiananmen. This is that war memorial. This is also in front of Tiananmen. The one taken here.
The one with the two of them. The photos from China aren’t very interesting. And well, I didn’t have much time. Is there anything else you haven’t seen? There are just so many photos. There really are a lot. I just showed you a few of them. Then, Huh Kyung-young’s photos show what I did last month. People call me a con artist because I’m in this mountain valley right now, but internationally, the U.S. Ambassador called me in and stamped my visa on the spot in just one day. He gave me a ticket to the U.S. right there. How fast is that? He told me to wake up tomorrow morning and head to the airport. Everything just happens. I’m still a bit dazed, aren’t I?
But starting a month before that, the CIA had been coming back and forth between my office and my house, and someone had been looking for me, so I wondered what was going on. It turned out to be an investigation sent by the U.S. Someone from the U.S. said they came, looked at my house, packed things up, and so on. I thought, “What on earth are they talking about? It’s such nonsense,” but then suddenly, the U.S. Ambassador called me through a counselor. He told me to come to the U.S. Embassy in Gwanghwamun immediately. As soon as I arrived, he handed me an invitation from President Bush and said, “You have to leave by tomorrow. Visa today, departure tomorrow. The flight is already all booked. Fast.” That is how I was dragged off in a rush to the U.S. But they call it a fake. They claim I didn’t actually leave the country. The Seoul Central District Court and the High Court ruled that I had left the U.S. even though I hadn’t gone there. It’s unbelievable.
But men just let it slide. They reveal it later. So, so I told you earlier. Pure gold is 99.9%. What do you call 99.9% pure gold?
Pure Gold 99.9%
99.9% pure gold
We call refined gold pure gold. This is 99.9% pure gold. Pure gold is 99.9% refined gold. Then, 18K is 18K. 18… this one is 24K. This is 24K. It is 24K, and this is 24K.
24K Pure Gold 99.9%
Pure Gold 99.9%
18K 70%
14K 45%
Pure gold. That 18K is about 70% gold. 14K is about 45% gold. So, I’m the one who used to mix them. At the jewelry store, I’d say, “The gold factory over there has a gold bar this size.” The bar is actually quite large.
But we cut it like this, precisely like this. You have to hammer it with that knife. If you slice it, powder flies out. So you cut it sharply with a knife. Then, you take that and weigh it on a scale, and you have to cut and put in brass equal to that weight. So, if the brass is 30% and gold is 70% on both sides of the scale, it becomes 18K. If gold is 45%, brass is 45%, and brass is 55%, it becomes 14K. The K value drops. Then, you have to boil this K value. When you melt the brass and gold, pitch-black smoke comes out. That smoke is the impurities. Even if you put cyanide powder into pure gold, a lot of grime comes out of the pure gold. The color of that grime is blue. That goes into your nose. It comes out as smoke. Then, while boiling the gold, you keep getting nosebleeds.
So, when I was in high school, I was attending this place, and I met that pastor. He got me a job and told me, “Earn money there and go to school.” So I went along. The pastor didn’t give me a single 10-won coin. He called himself a father, but he was from the church. He told me to earn money and go to school because I was from North Korea. While I was doing that, I kept getting nosebleeds, so I ate cyanide powder every day. The cyanide powder was white. You scoop the powder with a spoon and put it in, but there were no windows. Since it was a gold factory, there wasn’t a single window. The gold dust couldn’t fly away. It had to settle. So, even though the factory was huge, the floor was all tatami.
Walking on tatami mats kicks up dust. But if you burn the tatami later, this much gold comes out. That is why we simply cannot avoid laying down tatami. They say that if it isn’t just tatami, the gold gets stuck in your shoes and gets carried away. So, they absolutely always lay down tatami. Then, the gold gets all into the gaps between the mats. However, while I don’t produce powder when I melt gold, goldsmiths carve it. So, a lot of powder comes out from that. It flies around and then settles. Then, they collect all of that. You understand the gold. Then, is the air good? But after I worked there for exactly a few months, I started getting nosebleeds so much that the palace just pulled me out of there.
So, a gold ring disappeared. The gold was gone. The count was off. But who would anyone suspect? I’m the last one to come in. Everyone stares at me. I didn’t take the gold. I got kicked out. Ha, how great was that? I actually felt so good about being kicked out. The pastor said, “We got a call from the gold factory. Stop going there. They say the gold is missing. I didn’t bring any gold, so don’t go.” The gold disappeared because they already suspected me. So, if that gold hadn’t disappeared, I would have been getting nosebleeds constantly right there. I survived because I was robbed of that gold. You get lung cancer.
They alloy this in boiling water over a boiling fire. After alloying it, they pull it out like a noodle spoon. You put it into a machine like a noodle strand, and when you insert it, the metal and gold come out like noodles. Then you have to snap them off and take them to the ring-making team. Then gold noodles keep coming out—gold noodles. Once you cut the gold noodles, they take them, make them into rings, and grind them up. So, I saw all of that goldsmithing process. Wow, that. The sizes are fixed. You have to snap them off precisely. Then, when you hand them over, they take them, solder them together, and make a gold ring—it’s incredible.
And then they file it again. There are rings made round. Round rings. There are flat rings too, but they make them all. Those people. And they don’t sell them domestically. It’s all export. It was entirely an export factory. Since it was a factory making gold rings to export, imagine how much gold they melted down? So, do you think I like impurities or not? They put in cyanide powder, you see. When you put this gold and brass in and melt them, pitch-black, bluish smoke comes out, and that smoke is indescribable. But it’s not just smoke coming out. That black smoke floats inside the gold. Then, if you keep boiling it, the soot disappears. Eventually, when it’s all gone, the gold becomes like glass. It becomes clear.
Whether it’s 18K, 14K, or 24K, it’s completely free of impurities. So, if you take a piece with impurities to that guy, the gold ring splits in the middle. The impurities form a grain. You have to remove all of that. Then the gold ring comes out with the proper color. Oh my, when I think about spinning my top at the gold ring factory back in high school, don’t even get me started. I can’t even breathe. But our workers are amazing people. They don’t say a word there. They do the work consistently. Twelve months a year, and they get paid. When I see these men sitting there, hammering and carving, ruining their bodies just to earn money—when I look at the goldsmiths—I feel respect for them. I feel respect when I look at the workers.
You may have hated unions in the past, but try working for a moment. You really want to earn even a few pennies more, don’t you? That’s why unions act that way. So, you simply can’t condemn unions unconditionally without experiencing it yourself. Those workers dedicate their bodies in those harsh, deplorable conditions. Yes, they are dying there. But their children need to live like human beings, so they need money for tuition. They need to pay for tutoring, at least. That’s why they demonstrate. They want more money. So, you can understand everything once you’ve suffered. Considering how much the workers are suffering, how can we possibly provide them with inadequate guarantees? We have to, don’t we?
So, since you’ve only seen the photos today, we should at least give a short lecture. So, we.
Heart, Spirit, Nature,
Outer Mind, Inner Mind, True Mind
You said it existed. What is this? The outer mind. Well, that concludes today’s lecture. What I am saying is that we go somewhere and do something. We… earlier… going somewhere and doing something. What is that?
petition
I beg. To whom? When we say “I beg,” are we earnestly asking someone for something? When we say “I beg,” what should we use to make the beg? You ask, “Should I write it as ‘I beg with what’?” That is wrong. “I beg with sincerity” is incorrect. This part must be included. You absolutely must know this.
I earnestly beg of you with all my heart.
I earnestly beg of you with all my heart. Have you heard that expression? It means earnestly begging with all your heart.
If you plead with this outward expression, it won’t work. It is a heart, but what kind of heart? “I plead with my inner heart.” “I earnestly beg with a loyal heart.” That makes the sentence correct. Do you understand what I mean now? This inner heart is always understood more than the heart. That is why you shouldn’t use the character for “loyalty” (충) here when saying “loyalty” (충심). Even when addressing a king, you must write it this way; using the character for “loyalty” (충) is wrong. “I earnestly beg with a loyal heart.” So, when we plead and earnestly desire something, this must be included; this must not be included. “Sincerity” (진심) is not allowed. “Sincere heart” (성심) is not allowed either. “I earnestly beg with this loyal heart.” Therefore, offering something with force—that is a mere act, a mere act.
Ordinary person, mind, outer mind
Taoist person, sincerity, inner mind
Divine person, nature, original mind
Then, what is this offered with? It is the Taoist practitioners using their inner thoughts. And finally, the surname is the heart of a divine being. I say, the heart of a divine being.
So, that ‘Seong’ represents one’s true nature. However, you also possess the mind of a divine being within your hearts. Do you have this true nature or not? Yes, I do. Since I say it exists, this exists as well. You all have the mind of a divine being, the mind of a Taoist, and the mind of a layman all inside you. These are all present within you, yet you looked at my photograph with the same eyes. Everyone who sees it looks different. Why is that? Why is it different? It is because everyone’s mind is different. Everyone’s mind is different.
So, human nature—I mean, the human heart is a cultivation. Human nature is a cultivation.
Cultivating the human heart,
the descent of a single divine spirit,
and the attainment of true light
The character for “one” (一). The human mind is the cultivation of the human mind, but what is the mind of a sage? It is the inner heart received from Heaven, descending from the divine. That is the mind of a sage. It is the mind of a sage. And then, regarding this “sage,” what is this? The mind, the heart. The human mind must undergo cultivation. Then it becomes the inner heart (衷). It becomes the inner heart that has descended from the single Heaven, the divine spirit. It becomes the inner heart. This inner heart is the mind of a past life that has descended from Heaven here. So, it is the mind that has become karma from our past lives. So, this is the hardened mind. This is the inner heart. Therefore, this is our subconscious from our past lives. The subconscious, the consciousness that is latent.
This is Seongtong. Seongtong means that this Seong connects with the light of heaven and earth, doesn’t it? Being connected with the light of heaven and earth is the mind of a sage. This mind of Seong, this mind of loyalty, and this mind of Sim. These three—cultivating the single mind, strengthening the single body with loyalty, and connecting with the light of Seongtong—show that the human mind is different. It is the inner mind that has descended by the spirit of a single person. You are the One Body; you are a part of the One Body. It is that mind, and this is the light of heaven. That is why we speak of the Great Learning (Xiaoxue), you know?
The greatest of all universities is the Elementary Learning, the Great Learning, the Analects, and Mencius. If you graduate from this university, mastering the Great Learning of classical Chinese from the old days is better than mastering 100 universities these days. What the university is talking about—this university, you see…
University
This university itself. You said you did the first, second, and third. This is the university’s three major principles.
The university has three major principles, and isn’t it ‘Name the Virtue’?
Three Great Principles
- The Virtue of Illumination
- Mutual Prosperity with the People
- Reaching the Highest Good
Name-giving-the-virtue. This is the first thing the University pursues. This is it. Enlightenment and enlightenment. What we learn in the University to live brightly is Name-giving-the-virtue. Next is caring for the people, understand? I explained mutual prosperity with the people. This is the second content of the University. If you reduce the University to three parts, it becomes like that. Next is “Ji-eo-ji-ji-seon.” You understand what that means. Ji-eo-ji-seon uses the particle character ‘eo’. It is written like this. So these are the three meanings of the University. Then, we are separating the University.
So, if you look, the entire content of the Great Learning is structured around three major principles. Then, regarding the virtue of seeing everything clearly, isn’t it a virtue to see everything brightly? Regarding mutual prosperity with the people, one must interact with and become close to everyone—the common people and all citizens. One must not accumulate enemies. This is the foundation of studying the Great Learning. Being close to the people. Mutual prosperity. One must not think, “I will only live for myself,” right? Next, regarding the ultimate good, it is the supreme good. It is striving for the highest good. Therefore, one does not act unless it is the highest good.
So, you need to understand the three major tenets of this university by comparing them with this. These “Heart, Loyalty, and Sincerity” are included in the university’s three major tenets. What is this “Supreme Goodness”? It is “Enlightenment and Enlightenment.” “Friendly Mutual Prosperity” means you must think of others with your innermost heart. Outwardly, we might compete with “that guy,” but deep down, it is not like that. “That person” could be my in-law or distant relative, my own family, or even my mother from a past life; if you delve into your inner self, you cannot fight with others. “Virtue of Enlightenment” means always viewing the people of the world with clarity; that is cultivating the Way. Regarding others… the Hanmun University is a bit difficult. This encapsulates the entirety of it.
I’m telling you this because it wouldn’t be interesting if I just talked about it in detail, so I’m showing you a picture today. We learned Chinese characters like that, but when Huh Kyung-young taught the Great Learning (Daehak)—the Three Great Principles—if he were to lecture you on it, would you understand? So, what is the Great Learning? What is the Elementary Learning (Sohak), and what is the Great Learning? The Great Learning is this: Ming (Ming) means aiming for the highest good. Yang (Yang) means, can a truly good person do something bad? A truly good person cannot do bad things. That is the meaning embedded in it. I’m just giving you a rough explanation because if I went into detail, you wouldn’t be able to understand it.
The reason I showed you my photo today is that there are still many things you do not know about the Divine Being. However, I want to show you that I was busy in my youth and accomplished many great things.
And if I set my mind to it, even if the President has not a single penny, and the election is only a few months away, I can create money. I can create enormous amounts of money. So, if I think to myself, “I am going to run for President this time. I need 10 billion won right now,” then I can make it. I am going to build the Heavenly Palace. Then, why did you come here all alone? You were staying in someone else’s house. I build it in no time. And then the President comes out again. And then I destroy a lot of it again. And then I get arrested again. I get arrested. Is there anything special about it? I haven’t done anything wrong. So, to put it simply, if I set my mind to it, the heavens move. Isn’t that right? “Ah, what money would someone like me, who is always buying and distributing Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, have? Ah, the presidential election is approaching, and I have no money.”
So, if I sit down in my room and say, “I’m going to run for president this time,” it just happens. I came here. Coming here, coming here—you know, I was in someone else’s house at first. I came empty-handed. Did I become something after getting out of prison? Sitting there with nothing but my bare hands, I think, “I’m going to turn this entire neighborhood into a Sky Palace and the whole of Jangheung-myeon into one.” And so, it just happens. It happens really fast. Actually, because the speed is so fast, anti-fans appear again to put the brakes on. Telling me not to get into a traffic accident.
Now the anti-anti
They illegally removed the hard disk containing all my lecture content and submitted it to the police. The police used it for their investigation without sufficient review. To use this, they must obtain my permission. If someone takes the secrets on my cell phone to the police, they cannot be used as evidence. Any investigation conducted as a result becomes invalid. They need our consent. No, they copied all my documents and handed them over. The hard disk in question includes the original video of President Huh Kyung-young’s lectures. The defense emphasized that, according to Supreme Court precedents, this material cannot be seized without the owner’s consent, and that there is a significant issue regarding the fact that Mr. J illegally acquired it.
In fact, according to a Supreme Court ruling handed down last November, the seizure of electronic information submitted to investigative agencies by a third party without the owner’s consent is considered a violation of the warrant principle and due process. Accordingly, the court ruled that not only the information in question but also secondary evidence obtained based on it cannot be admitted as proof of guilt. Do you understand now? The defense attorney for Chairman Heo argued that the police’s analysis and utilization of the data without even notifying him of the hard disk seizure was a clear violation of the law. In particular, the fact that the police exaggerated only certain expressions in the lecture video to support criminal charges was also pointed out as an issue. The defense stated that the police reviewed the entire lecture video, which implies that they actively utilized illegally obtained material.
Furthermore, they claimed that they would re-conduct the questioning of witnesses and suspects based on the relevant materials. Along with this, Chairman Heo’s side plans to file a complaint against Mr. J on charges of aggravated theft and is also considering legal action against the police’s illegal investigative methods. Meanwhile, Chairman Heo’s side also raised suspicions that Mr. J spearheaded the complaint in this case, spreading false information and defaming his reputation. The defense team stated that based on the materials submitted to the court, it appears Mr. J directly led the filing of the complaint, and that the possibility of a collective false accusation cannot be ruled out. So, they systematically gathered people, mostly their own family members, and dragged the rest into it. They promised to collect the money, but then filed a complaint for sexual harassment.
So, just how much lying is this? They themselves don’t even know they’ve been accused of sexual harassment. They signed a document promising to collect the money, only to find out it has led to a different accusation. Look here. It says, “This controversy raises questions about the legality of the evidence collection procedures by the Gyeonggi Northern Police Agency’s Anti-Corruption Investigation Team, and with a strong response from President Huh Kyung-young’s side anticipated, attention is focused on how the police investigation will proceed.” But if you look there, we even obtained a note from the court that reads, “Oh my, please absolutely do not say that I gave it.” That Mr. J wrote there, “Oh my, absolutely do not say that I gave it; it would be a big problem if Huh Kyung-young found out.” So, knowing full well that it would lead to such consequences, he committed theft and submitted it to the police.
So, did Huh Kyung-young embezzle anything? Did he commit fraud? They took all of that and viewed the video from their own perspective, asking whether it was acceptable or not to take the footage like that. Because it was illegal evidence, everything investigated so far is null and void. We have to start the investigation over. We need to re-investigate the fraud and embezzlement cases. You understand. They probably used it for sexual harassment as well, here and there, but it is all invalid. The entire investigation of the case is illegal. The entire investigation is illegal. That is why this must have been reported to the National Police Agency. Since they appeared on the news, it was broadcast in many places.
This is Sisa Magazine, and what was that one just a moment ago? It’s Naeoe Business, and it appeared in several places. Probably Sisa Naeoe Business, and then Sisa Magazine just a moment ago. Also JOBPOST. And this one is Handmaker. And e-science. And ah, well, anyway, it’s about several places. It was aired in many places. The police investigation into President Huh Kyung-young’s side has absolutely no legitimacy, and everything is wrong. It needs to be redone, doesn’t it? So, anyway, this is a massive illegal act.
So, it’s not about finding the person who committed the illegal act; rather, they commit the illegal act themselves. “I have never committed it.” Isn’t that absurd? That is why you need to realize that the divine being giving this lecture is not an ordinary person. I am the greatest religious leader in our country’s history. I distributed the greatest Bible, the Tripitaka, translated scriptures, Buddhist scriptures, and Christian scriptures. There is no one in our country who has distributed them like that. Is there anyone who has provided free meals for 55 years like that? No. Even now, that amounts to 2 billion won a year. Is that a small amount of money? What has that person done? Do you think I go around doing that because I have nothing else to do? Why would someone who has run for president repeatedly commit an illegal act? If you commit an illegal act, you cannot get elected.
So, I doubt that person. He is someone who pursued this kind of thing. He is someone who has been realizing the “supreme virtue,” “pro-people mutual prosperity,” and “named virtue” since elementary school. Have you ever had a drink? Have you ever had a cup of coffee? Have you ever smoked a cigarette? What do you mean, what have I done? Have you ever had a cola? Have you ever had Sprite? I only drank cold water. That is how I raised money, and to revive your policies, I ran for president and told the people that we must eliminate the low birth rate. When I made this argument 30 years ago, there wasn’t a single person who didn’t call me crazy. However, that was the right time. It was a time when you could stop it with a hoe. But even if you try to stop it with a shovel, it won’t work.
Except for the cities, the countryside is now entirely settled by foreigners. It is too scary to go out at night. Why? Because they are all foreigners. If you see anyone coming out of a plastic greenhouse or factory, they are foreigners. We can’t even communicate well. So where are our own people? They are all gathered in the cities. They have all left the provinces. In a few decades, it will be difficult to even see a Korean person in the countryside. Once those elders pass away now, will their sons be there? Foreigners will take over those places entirely. Then, Korea will be a place where Koreans are concentrated only in the cities, while foreigners farm the land from the countryside downwards. I am the person who stepped forward 30 years ago to try and stop this.
Marco Rubio is the Secretary of State right now. This is Cory Gardner. A photo of the two of them together. This is a photo taken with Marco Rubio. Then there’s that frontal shot over there with Cory Gardner, you know? This is a photo taken with Cory Gardner. You know this one, Chairman? This Cory Gardner photo was taken at that party. Marco Rubio and a video of Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio. Ah, this is the mayor. Is this the mayor of New York or some other mayor?
We have reached a point where we can no longer sustain ourselves by our own strength alone. We will not be able to pass on to future generations what we have inherited. To overcome this situation, we must reconsider our existing methods. While maintaining the ideology and principles of the existing Republican Party, we need to rebuild our institutions and re-examine our thinking on the Republican ideology. We must be prepared for a new administration. For this reason, I am very excited; many people have told me that this person will win and that we support him, and he can win. He will be elected.
This Marco Rubio is Trump’s right-hand man. He recently became the Secretary of State and Foreign Affairs. In our language, the Secretary of State is the Minister of Foreign Affairs. That Foreign Minister travels all over the world. He rose to the position of someone handling Trump’s affairs.
But Trump told me to meet this person. So I went and met him. Trump introduced us. These are the bodyguards. They are bodyguards, and they were about 20cm taller than Rubio. They are taller than us. But this is the Senator who ranked first among the Republican presidential candidates. Trump was ranked 16th. So, he has a wide network within the Republican Party. Right, and I was a Republican too, you know? We Republicans talk amongst ourselves, saying that meeting someone like that and achieving that kind of result is not an easy feat.
No matter how much our National Assembly members travel, they cannot meet with Senate chairpersons. They may be here and there, but they aren’t always in Washington.
They have schedules. So, to meet them even once, they have to make an appointment and bring in the invitation themselves. That is how they manage to meet. I am watching this very calmly. My characteristic is that if you take a good picture of me, I look good. This is Ruby, this is Ruby, and this is Trump. In the Republican Party, this one was number one and this one was last. But the last place finisher became president, and the number one finisher became the Secretary of Foreign Affairs. Ah, isn’t that a fascinating thing that happened? Something incredible has happened.
Okay, so that meal we’re having. Cory Gardner and I having lunch. I went all the way to the U.S. after being invited for a single lunch. I’m sitting here. Next, here is Senate President Cory Gardner. Chairman of the Senate Asia-Pacific Committee. Because he spoke with me and refused to stamp or sign the document, a war with North Korea didn’t break out. That happened. I’m here. The face of the person from North Korea is covered. It’s covered here. Here, Cory Gardner is holding a meeting. It looks like a battle scene, doesn’t it? This person is serious right now, and this is the person from North Korea. The person in front is the one from North Korea. And I’m sitting there, too.
They were talking about invading North Korea or whatever, and that was set for the very next day as the invasion date. So, all the U.S. generals gathered in Hawaii. Then, unless Cory Gardner, the Chairman of the Asia-Pacific Committee, signed off, the war budget wouldn’t go through. So, Cory Gardner was holding the reins tight. Cory Gardner is also a direct associate of Bush and Trump. And wasn’t Marco Rubio a direct associate too? So, take a look at this man’s face. Zoom in. Cory Gardner usually has a very pleasant demeanor, but look at his face back then. Look at that face. I look pretty serious, too. I’m acting completely like Hitler, and look at Cory Gardner’s face, too. This is what it looked like the day before the war. It’s unbelievable.
You have no idea how bright and handsome his face used to be. But at this time, his face was completely distorted, and mine was distorted too. While a North Korean was talking, we were sitting there with every possible grim expression on our faces. “Let’s invade tomorrow.”
Oh no, this isn’t right. This is the time to do things like this. What did I say at that moment? CVPE FVID. Ah, I advocated for FVID. I argued for “Fully Verifiably Irreversibly Dismantle,” and those people said, “Let’s completely, completely, perfectly take control of North Korea.” Completely Verifiably. Not Irreversibly, but Permanently—meaning permanently. Eliminate. Eliminate isn’t just removal; it means they completely eliminate it themselves. No, the U.S. eliminates it.
So, CVP Permanently Permanently Permanently. Then, Eliminate. The “Didmantle” (ruthlessness) I’m talking about. I said let’s scrap it, but the U.S. said they have to remove it themselves. So, they said they would Eliminate it. Permanently. But I said it’s not permanent. We settled it like this, with a buffer, and that’s how it ended. Hey, it’s a scary position. Try showing me that expression at that time. Try to make it look a bit more intense. Doesn’t it look scary? Right, there’s no time. My expression was bright back then. My expression was gone back then. Oh my, this is fun.
Please give a big round of applause to our respected and beloved Divine Being who has deeply moved us again today. Thank you.
According to the speaker, what is the primary reason for the low literacy rate (80-90%) among the Korean population in his youth?
(Lack of access to educational materials, The speaker implies that a lack of access to educational materials like scriptures contributed to high illiteracy, not necessarily a lack of intelligence or desire to learn. A common misconception is that illiteracy is solely due to a lack of formal schooling.)
O/X: The speaker claims to have distributed hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles for free during his youth.
(O, The speaker explicitly states he distributed “hundreds of thousands” of both Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles for free, often with his name as a donor. A common misconception might be that such large-scale distribution would require significant funding or institutional backing, but he claims to have done it personally.)
Which of the following religious leaders did the speaker mention meeting and having close ties with during his younger years?
① Kim Poong-il, Ok Han-eum, Cho Yong-gi
② Kim Dae-jung, Roh Tae-woo, Chun Doo-hwan
③ Park Wan-il, Kang Seok-joo, Oh Nok-won
④ Song Chun-hee, Oh Ji-myung, Song Hae
(① Kim Poong-il, Ok Han-eum, Cho Yong-gi, The speaker specifically names these individuals as prominent Christian leaders he was close with. The other options include political figures, a professor, or entertainers, not solely religious leaders. A common misconception might be that he only associated with one religious group, but he claims to have ties across different faiths.)
What is the speaker’s current offer for anyone who brings him a Buddhist scripture or Christian Bible with his name written as a donor?
(1 million won, The speaker offers 1 million won for each book found with his name as a donor, emphasizing that he distributed them widely in his youth. A common misconception might be that such an offer is a publicity stunt, but he presents it as a genuine effort to find the books he donated.)
Intermediate
O/X: The speaker asserts that his past activities, including distributing religious texts and engaging with various leaders, demonstrate he is not merely someone with “Presidential disease” (an obsession with becoming president).
(O, The speaker explicitly states he is not suffering from “Presidential disease” and that his extensive past activities, including religious and political engagements, prove he is not just a sudden appearance. A common misconception is that his political aspirations are his sole motivation, but he frames them as part of a broader life of service.)
The speaker describes his experience working in a gold factory during his high school years. What dangerous substance was he exposed to, causing frequent nosebleeds?
(Cyanide (청산가루), The speaker mentions that he was exposed to cyanide powder (청산가루) while working in the gold factory, which caused him to have frequent nosebleeds. A common misconception might be that gold processing is a clean industry, but he highlights the hazardous chemicals involved.)
In the context of the “Great Learning” (大學), what are the three main principles (三大綱領) that the speaker connects to the concepts of “outer mind” (心), “inner mind” (衷), and “true nature” (性)?
(The three principles are “Illuminating Bright Virtue” (明明之德), “Loving the People and Mutual Prosperity” (親民相生), and “Resting in the Highest Good” (止於至善). He links “Illuminating Bright Virtue” to “true nature” (性), “Loving the People and Mutual Prosperity” to “inner mind” (衷), and “Resting in the Highest Good” to “outer mind” (心). A common misconception is that these are separate concepts, but he integrates them as different aspects of human consciousness and moral cultivation.)
The speaker mentions attending a party for President Bush’s inauguration. What specific detail does he use to differentiate this “A-class” party from other “C-class” hotel parties attended by Korean politicians?
(The “A-class” party at Union Station had extremely high ceilings (over 20-30 meters) and was attended by only 300 people from around the world, with distinct, elaborate tableware and black servers. The “C-class” hotel parties had much lower ceilings and a more diverse, less exclusive guest list. A common misconception might be that all political gatherings are similar, but he emphasizes the exclusivity and grandeur of the top-tier event.)
Advanced
Describe the speaker’s perspective on the relationship between suffering/hardship and leadership, as exemplified by his own experiences and that of Kim Dae-jung.
(The speaker believes that national leaders must experience hardship and suffering, like Kim Dae-jung’s imprisonment, to become humble and effective. He applies this to himself, stating that even as a “heavenly being,” he had to experience human suffering to understand why people commit sins. A common misconception is that divine or powerful figures are exempt from hardship, but he argues it’s a necessary part of their development and understanding.)
The speaker recounts a critical meeting in the US involving North Korean representatives and US officials, including Senator Cory Gardner. What was the central point of contention, and what alternative approach did the speaker advocate?
(The central contention was whether to “Completely, Verifiably, Permanently Eliminate” (CVPE) North Korea’s nuclear program through military action, which was scheduled for the next day. The speaker advocated for “Fully, Verifiably, Irreversibly Dismantle” (FVID), emphasizing “dismantle” (폐기) rather than “eliminate” (제거), suggesting a less aggressive, more diplomatic approach. A common misconception might be that such high-stakes negotiations are purely military or political, but he highlights the nuanced language and potential for alternative solutions.)
Explain the legal issue raised by the speaker’s legal team regarding the police investigation. What specific legal principle was allegedly violated, and what are the potential consequences for the evidence collected?
(The legal issue is that an individual (J씨) illegally stole a hard drive containing the speaker’s lecture videos and submitted it to the police without the speaker’s consent. This violates the principle of warrant requirement and due process, as established by a Supreme Court precedent. Consequently, not only the illegally obtained hard drive but also any secondary evidence derived from it is inadmissible as evidence. A common misconception is that any evidence presented to the police is valid, but he argues that the method of acquisition is crucial for its legality.)
How does the speaker use his past interactions with various public figures (religious leaders, politicians, entertainers) to counter criticisms and establish his credibility?
(The speaker uses these interactions to demonstrate his extensive network, influence, and long-standing commitment to public service, arguing that such prominent figures would not associate with a “fraud” or “scammer.” He highlights their respect for him, their willingness to seek his advice, and their support despite potential public criticism, implying they recognized his unique qualities. A common misconception is that his claims are baseless, but he presents these relationships as tangible proof of his legitimacy and impact.)
This document is an excerpt from a Saturday lecture by Huh Kyung-young at Sky Palace, delivered on March 15, 2025. In this lecture, Huh Kyung-young showcases numerous photos from his past, emphasizing his connections with prominent religious and political figures in Korea and abroad. He uses these photos to illustrate his extensive public service and to assert his unique status as a “divine being” (신인), distinct from ordinary politicians or religious leaders. The core message is that his past actions and relationships prove his extraordinary nature and destiny to lead.
Huh Kyung-young’s Self-Proclaimed Identity and Worldview
The “Divine Being” Who Transcends All Religions
Huh Kyung-young positions himself as a “divine being” (신인) who has mastered all worldly knowledge and religions and possesses a “10-dimensional spiritual insight” (10차원 영안) to foresee the future. He claims that his past involvement with various religious leaders and his distribution of religious texts were part of his mission to “help” (도왔어) and “promote” (홍보해 준 거야) these faiths, not to adhere to any one of them. This narrative is crucial for him to assert his transcreligious authority and appeal to a broader audience, suggesting that all religious paths ultimately lead to him.
신인님은 세상 모든 학문과 각종 종교를 섭렵하셨으며 10차원 영안으로 앞날을 훤히 내다보고 계십니다
The divine being has mastered all worldly knowledge and various religions, and foresees the future with 10-dimensional spiritual insight.
우리나라에 불교 불교계의 큰손님은 다 만났죠? 다 내하고 많이 알지 기독교 큰 사람들 다 알죠? 뭐 이렇게 유명한 사람들하고 찍은 사진이 상당히 많은데
I’ve met all the big figures in Korean Buddhism, right? I know them all well. I know all the big figures in Christianity, right? I have quite a lot of photos taken with such famous people.
신인이 와 가지고 불교계 기독교계 다 두루두루 도왔어 그러니까 지금 나는 무슨 종교 파괴 편파가 있나? 우리가 무슨 뭐 예배 봅니까? 모든 여기 뭐 신부님이든 불교든 기독교든 다 와 있잖아? 그러니까 신인이 옴으로써 모든 종파는 끝난 시대야
The divine being came and helped both the Buddhist and Christian communities. So, do I have any religious bias or prejudice now? Do we hold any worship services? Everyone, whether priests, Buddhists, or Christians, is here, right? So, with the arrival of the divine being, the era of all religious sects is over.
A Life Dedicated to “Service” and “Giving”
Huh Kyung-young repeatedly emphasizes his 55 years of public service, particularly his “free distribution” (무상으로 노놔줬어) of hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles. He claims to have spent billions of won of his own money on this, highlighting his selfless dedication and contrasting it with others who “only care about making money.” This portrayal aims to establish him as a benevolent figure whose actions are driven by a desire to uplift humanity, not personal gain.
수십만 권의 성경과 수십만 권의 불교 경전을 무료로 노놔줬어
I distributed hundreds of thousands of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures for free.
이 허경영이가 주는 불교의 경전을 값으로 치면 약 100억 정도 돼 그다음에 기독교 성경은 한 100억 정도 될 거고 그거를 젊은 시절에 내 돈으로 무상으로 노놔줬어 알겠죠? 그러니까 내가 봉사를 무료급식만 한 게 아니야 55년 동안
If you value the Buddhist scriptures that Huh Kyung-young distributed, it’s about 10 billion won. And the Christian Bibles would be about 10 billion won. I distributed those for free with my own money when I was young. Understood? So, my service wasn’t just free meals for 55 years.
여러분들이 술 먹는 돈 커피 마시는 돈으로 나는 책을 다 노놔줬으니까 굉장히 다르죠?
While you all spent money on drinking and coffee, I distributed all those books. It’s very different, isn’t it?
The Power of “Divine Will” and Overcoming Adversity
Huh Kyung-young asserts that his “divine will” (마음을 먹으면 하늘이 움직인다는 거) allows him to achieve seemingly impossible feats, such as generating vast sums of money for presidential campaigns or rapidly building Sky Palace from nothing. He also frames his past legal troubles and criticisms as “trials” (환란) necessary for a leader, implying that these experiences only strengthen his resolve and prove his extraordinary nature. This narrative reinforces his image as a supernatural figure who operates beyond conventional human limitations.
마음 먹으면 대통령 돈이 한 푼도 없는데 대통령 선거할 날이 몇 달이 안 남았어 그러면 돈을 만들어 낸다는 거 어마어마한 돈을 만들어 낸다는 거
If I set my mind to it, even if I have no money for a presidential election with only a few months left, I can create money. I can create enormous amounts of money.
어떤 마음을 먹으면 하늘이 움직인다는 거
If I set my mind to something, the heavens move.
어떤 국가적인 지도자는 환란을 겪어야 돼 김대중 대통령도 한 열 번 감옥을 갔죠? 또 뭐 우리가 다 감옥을 가지만은 그런 환란이 있은 다음에 지도자가 돼야 겸손한 사람이 되는 거예요
Any national leader must go through tribulations. President Kim Dae-jung went to prison about ten times, right? Although we all go to prison, one must become a leader after such tribulations to become a humble person.
Connections with Influential Figures
Rubbing Shoulders with Religious and Political Giants
Huh Kyung-young presents a collection of photos with high-profile figures from various sectors, including Cho Yong-gi (조용기) of Yoido Full Gospel Church, former presidents Kim Dae-jung (김대중), Roh Tae-woo (노태우), Chun Doo-hwan (전두환), Choi Kyu-hah (최규하), Lee Myung-bak (이명박), and Park Geun-hye (박근혜), as well as Buddhist leaders and American politicians like Marco Rubio and Cory Gardner. He uses these photos to demonstrate his long-standing influence and close relationships with these individuals, often implying that they sought his counsel or recognized his unique status. This strategy aims to legitimize his claims of being a significant, albeit unconventional, leader.
여의도 순복음교회 조용기 목사님 내하고 찍은 사진
A photo of me with Pastor Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church.
김대중 대통령하고 찍은 사진이 있어 김대중 대통령하고 찍은 사진 그러니까 종교계의 거물은 내가 젊을 때 너무너무 친했어
I have a photo taken with President Kim Dae-jung. A photo taken with President Kim Dae-jung. So, I was very, very close with the big figures in the religious world when I was young.
이 마르코 루비오가 트럼프의 오른팔이야 이번에 국무 외무장관이 됐죠
This Marco Rubio is Trump’s right-hand man. He became the Secretary of State, or Foreign Minister, this time.
The “Unseen Hand” Behind Major Events
Huh Kyung-young subtly suggests his involvement in significant national and international events, such as preventing a war with North Korea by influencing a US Senator. He recounts how he was “abruptly summoned” (엉겁길에 붙들려 간 거야) to the US by the ambassador for a Bush presidential party, implying a level of importance that transcends ordinary diplomatic channels. These anecdotes serve to elevate his status from a mere political candidate to a global influencer with a hidden, yet powerful, role in world affairs.
이 사람이 내하고 이야기해 가지고 도장을 안 찍는 싸인을 안 하는 바람에 북한하고 전쟁이 안 일어난 거야
This person talked with me and didn’t sign the document, which prevented a war with North Korea.
국제적으로 미국 대사가 나를 불러서 하루 만에 비자 그 자리에서 비자를 찍어 줘.그 자리에서 내일 미국 가는 티켓을 주는 거야
Internationally, the US ambassador called me and issued a visa on the spot in one day. They gave me a ticket to go to the US tomorrow, right there.
그 나는 얼떨떨하죠? 근데 그 한 달 전부터 CIA가 내가 있는 사무실하고 집을 왔다리 갔다리 누가 찾아와서 그래서 나는 뭔가 했어
So I was bewildered, right? But a month before that, someone from the CIA had been coming and going from my office and home, so I wondered what was going on.
Philosophical Underpinnings of His Teachings
The Three Minds: Outer, Inner, and True Self
Huh Kyung-young introduces a philosophical concept of three types of “mind” (마음): the “outer mind” (겉마음 – 심), the “inner mind” (속마음 – 충), and the “true mind” or “original nature” (본마음 – 성). He explains that true sincerity comes from the “inner mind” and that the “true mind” is connected to the “light of heaven and earth” (천지광명). This framework provides a spiritual dimension to his teachings, suggesting that understanding these different levels of consciousness is key to personal and societal enlightenment.
心 衷 性 있다고 그랬죠? 이게 뭐야? 겉마음
I said there are “Shim (心 – outer mind),” “Choong (衷 – inner mind),” and “Seong (性 – true mind),” right? What is this? The outer mind.
이 속마음은 항상 마음보다 알아주는 거야 그래서 충심으로 여기 충성 충 자 쓰면 안 돼 그거는 임금한테 할 때도 이걸 이렇게 써야지 충성할 충 자 쓰면 틀려요 충심으로 간청합니다
This inner mind is always recognized more than the outer mind. So, for “choong-shim” (衷心), you shouldn’t use the character for “loyalty” (忠). Even when addressing a king, you should use this character (衷); using the character for “loyalty” (忠) is incorrect. You should say, “I earnestly request with my inner heart (衷心).”
이 성은 천지의 광명과 통하죠? 천지광명과 통해 있는 이것이 성인의 마음이야
This “Seong” (性 – true mind) communicates with the light of heaven and earth, right? This connection with the light of heaven and earth is the mind of a divine being.
The Three Great Principles of “Daehak” (大學)
He connects his philosophy to the “Three Great Principles” (3대강령) of the ancient Chinese text “Daehak” (大學 – The Great Learning): “illuminating bright virtue” (명명지덕), “renewing the people” (친민상생), and “resting in the highest good” (지어지선). He interprets these principles as seeing the world brightly, fostering mutual prosperity, and always striving for the ultimate good. By linking his ideas to classical wisdom, he aims to present his teachings as deeply rooted and universally applicable, providing a moral compass for his followers.
대학에 3대강령이 있는데 명명지덕이죠? 이게 대학에서 추구하는 첫 번째거든 이게 이거야 성통광명 밝게 살기 위해서 배우는 게 명명지덕이에요 대학에
There are three great principles in “Daehak,” and the first is “illuminating bright virtue,” right? This is the first thing “Daehak” pursues. This is it: “Seongtonggwangmyeong” (性通光明 – the true mind communicates with the light of heaven and earth). Learning to live brightly is “illuminating bright virtue” in “Daehak.”
친민 알겠죠? 친민상생 내가 해 줬죠? 요게 대학의 두 번째 대학의 내용이에요
“Renewing the people,” understood? I explained “renewing the people and mutual prosperity,” right? This is the second principle of “Daehak.”
그다음에 지어 지어지선 무슨 말인지 알겠죠? 지어지선은 어조사 어 자야 이렇게 돼 있죠? 그러면 요게 대학의 세 가지 뜻이야
And then, “resting in the highest good,” understood? “Resting in the highest good” uses the auxiliary particle “eo” (於). It’s written like this, right? So, these are the three meanings of “Daehak.”

Huh Kyung-young’s Past Photos: Encounters with Religious and Political Leaders
-
Gratitude and the God-man’s Presence
Huh Kyung-young extended his greetings, acknowledging the attendees at Sky Temple and viewers worldwide, wishing them blessings from the God-man. He stated that the God-man has mastered all worldly knowledge and various religions, possessing a tenth-dimensional spiritual insight that allows him to foresee the future. He anticipated that people from all over the world, recognizing him as the God-man, would soon flock to him in great numbers. He then introduced the God-man, Huh Kyung-young, with fervent applause, as the one who seeks to save humanity and promote coexistence and co-prosperity. He noted the presence of four individuals presenting orchid pots as tokens of gratitude. The first was a couple, Lee Eun-joo and Yoo Jae-hoon, along with Lee Eun-joo’s mother, Hong Sung-soon, and sister, Lee Min-jung, who expressed thanks for the healing of two cases of Hepatitis A. He remarked on the pleasant sight of the entire family attending and requested applause. Subsequently, Archangel Son Young-bum presented a purple orchid pot, followed by Archangel Kim Jung-kyu, who offered a white orchid pot as a sign of respect. Finally, Archangel Yoon Soon-hee presented a yellow orchid pot, symbolizing spring, to express deep gratitude for meeting the God-man. -
The God-man’s Unwavering Presence and Extensive Lectures
Huh Kyung-young then addressed the audience, drawing a contrast between himself and a traveling medicine peddler. He emphasized that he is always present at Sky Temple, never traveling for business or going overseas. He likened his constant presence to a spouse always being home, a rarity in daily life. He noted that he delivers lectures every morning and afternoon, without a single day off, and that his lectures are widely attended and appreciated, even by many famous individuals. He announced that today’s session would feature a review of his past photographs. -
Extensive Connections with Religious and Political Figures
Huh Kyung-young stated that he has met all the prominent figures in Korean Buddhism and Christianity, maintaining close relationships with many of them. He mentioned having numerous photographs with famous individuals, but due to time constraints, he would only show a few. He displayed a photograph with Pastor Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church, noting that the flowers in the picture, both his and Pastor Cho’s, were identical, signifying a significant occasion. He indicated that the photograph was several decades old, showing a much younger version of himself and Pastor Cho. He also presented a photograph with President Kim Dae-jung, emphasizing his close ties with major religious leaders during his youth, including Pastors Cho Yong-gi, Kim Poong-il, and Ok Han-heum. He pointed out that Pastor Oh Jung-hyun of Sarang Community Church originated from Naesudong Church, where Huh Kyung-young had been associated as the son of a pastor. He asserted that his understanding of Christianity surpassed that of current seminary professors. -
Philanthropic Distribution of Scriptures
Huh Kyung-young recounted his extensive service in distributing hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles. He offered a reward of one million won to anyone who could bring him a copy of these scriptures or Bibles bearing his name as a donor, as he himself no longer possessed any. He explained that he had distributed these texts free of charge, often without his name, under the principle of 무상보시 (無償布施), meaning “gratuitous giving.” He estimated the value of the distributed Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles to be approximately 10 billion won each, all funded by him during his youth. He clarified that his service extended beyond free meal programs, encompassing the distribution of various sacred texts, including the Analects of Confucius and Mencius. He explained that this initiative was undertaken during a time when Korea’s illiteracy rate was high, around 80-90%. The distributed Buddhist scriptures, though voluminous in their original form (like the Tripitaka Koreana), were condensed into a size comparable to a Bible, titled “Buddhist Sacred Texts” and published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures. He contrasted his youthful dedication to distributing books with others who spent their money on alcohol or coffee. -
Prominent Position in Buddhist and Christian Events
Huh Kyung-young highlighted his unique position in photographs with prominent religious leaders. He noted that Pastor Cho Yong-gi, a leading figure in Christianity at the time, would not typically pose for photographs with just anyone, especially not with ordinary congregants, yet he was pictured alone with Huh Kyung-young. He then shifted to a photograph taken at a Buddhist event in Yeouido, where he appeared very young. He identified himself alongside the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, Venerable Chandananda, and Kang Seok-joo, the then-President of the Jogye Order. He mentioned that Kang Seok-joo was a revered elder monk associated with temples like Jingwansa and Bongeunsa. The photograph also included the Japanese Buddhist Sangharaja and the Indian Sri Lankan Buddhist Sangharaja, with Huh Kyung-young positioned among them, accompanied by an interpreter. He described the event as a Buddhist lantern parade, a grand ceremony attended by a million people in Yeouido Plaza, where he stood at the center. He identified the person next to him as Professor Park Wan-il, the president of the National Buddhist Laymen’s Association of Dongguk University. He emphasized that his central position in such a significant event, alongside the most respected figures in Buddhism, underscored his substantial contributions to the Korean Buddhist community. He stated that this was no ordinary feat, as a million people were gathered for the lantern parade in Yeouido Plaza. He recalled that this photograph was taken when he was in his forties, reflecting his extensive service during his youth. He explained that in Buddhism, the president of the laymen’s association is highly regarded, and despite the presence of many high-ranking officials and patriarchs from various denominations, he was positioned at the center of the lantern festival, a major event held on Buddha’s Birthday. He clarified that he served as an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association, and the event was hosted by the Korean Buddhist Denominational Council. He reiterated that his central position among the President of the Jogye Order, the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, the Japanese Sangharaja, and Professor Park Wan-il, the president of the Korean Buddhist Laymen’s Association, was a testament to his significant standing. -
Activism and Political Engagement
Huh Kyung-young recalled his active involvement in rural and fishing village volunteer work during his forties and fifties, indicating that his activities extended beyond presidential campaigns. He mentioned being seen with Auditor Lee Moon-ok at the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice (CCEJ) event in front of Myeongdong Cathedral during the military regime. He described himself holding a picket sign, advocating for economic justice and addressing wealth disparity. He asserted that he was a highly active individual in his youth. -
The God-man’s Universal Support and Prophecy
Huh Kyung-young stated that he is not merely a presidential aspirant but a God-man who has assisted both the Buddhist and Christian communities. He emphasized his impartiality, noting that his presence transcends all religious denominations, as evidenced by the diverse attendance at Sky Temple, including priests, Buddhists, and Christians. He declared that with the advent of the God-man, the era of sectarian divisions has ended. He reiterated his past initiative of distributing scriptures from various religions, predicting that soon people would come forward with these texts. He offered one million won for each copy of his distributed Buddhist Sacred Texts or Bibles bearing his name, suggesting that many parents of younger generations might possess them. -
The Practice of Dharma Giving
Huh Kyung-young explained that his extensive service involved 법보시 (法布施), meaning “Dharma giving,” through the indiscriminate distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. He clarified that he would not have done so if he belonged to a specific religion, as his aim was to encourage people to listen to and read the words of saints without prejudice. He noted that he was welcomed by both Buddhists and Christians, recalling his photograph with Pastor Cho Yong-gi, a prominent figure in Christianity at the time, where they stood together with identical flowers and ties. He humorously attributed the tie to a gift from the Buddhist community, noting his preference for red. -
Continued Engagement with Buddhist Leaders
Huh Kyung-young then referred to a photograph with Oh Nok-won, who succeeded Kang Seok-joo as the President of the Jogye Order. He instructed his staff to prepare the relevant photographs promptly, emphasizing the importance of efficiency during the presentation. He displayed a photograph taken on a building rooftop with singer Song Chun-hee, identifying the man in the picture as another President of the Jogye Order and the head of the military Buddhist chaplaincy. He pointed out the presence of other prominent Buddhist figures, referring to them as the “presidents of the Buddhist world.” He noted that the photograph showed him and Song Chun-hee in their younger days, remarking on his photogenic appearance. He contrasted his simple attire with Pastor Cho Yong-gi’s impressive and well-tailored clothing, while acknowledging that monks’ robes were uniformly styled. He mentioned wearing a similar pigeon-gray suit, which he found to be quite stylish. -
Extensive Religious Activities and the Value of Scriptures
Huh Kyung-young reiterated his extensive involvement in religious activities, stating that Sky Temple was not built overnight but was the culmination of his efforts to promote various religions, including Buddhism and Christianity. He reaffirmed his offer of one million won for each copy of the scriptures he distributed, emphasizing his financial capacity to fulfill this promise, even to his own members. -
Connections with Military and Political Figures
Huh Kyung-young then presented a photograph with General Lee Jin-sam, a four-star army general. He explained that he attended Dongguk University Graduate School, where many high-ranking police officers and military generals were his classmates. He stated that he forged many connections with police and military personnel during his youth while studying at Dongguk University’s Graduate School of Public Administration and concurrently pursuing a law degree at Korea National Open University. He noted that General Lee Jin-sam, a former Army Chief of Staff during the Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan administrations, had many classmates from Dongguk University’s Graduate School of Public Administration who were his contemporaries. -
Support from Entertainment Figures
Huh Kyung-young displayed a photograph with actor Oh Ji-myung, taken during his presidential campaign in Daegu. He highlighted Oh Ji-myung’s unique characteristic of avoiding media appearances for decades after his role in “Soonpoong Clinic,” yet actively supporting Huh Kyung-young’s presidential campaign. He attributed this to Oh Ji-myung’s discerning eye, recognizing the God-man. He expressed his admiration for Oh Ji-myung, who, despite knowing the high probability of Huh Kyung-young’s defeat, chose to support him, refusing any media interviews or television appearances, even for substantial financial offers. He interpreted Oh Ji-myung’s unwavering support as a recognition of the God-man, a decision that carried significant personal and reputational weight. He stated that Oh Ji-myung and his wife, Yoo Yeon-hee, received a “Level 1 Million Mu” blessing, emphasizing that Oh Ji-myung was a selfless volunteer who never asked for compensation. -
Encounters with Celebrities and Spiritual Guidance
Huh Kyung-young asserted that he is not the person portrayed by the media, but rather someone who has associated with prominent religious figures since his youth. He then presented a photograph with the late entertainer Song Hae, noting that special celebrities recognized and favored him. He emphasized the significance of such photographs, as celebrities’ public image is paramount, and associating with a controversial figure could be detrimental. Despite public criticism, Song Hae chose to support Huh Kyung-young, demonstrating his discerning judgment. He praised Song Hae’s sharp insight and character, stating that he was the first person to receive a “Level 1 Million Mu” blessing from him. He reiterated that his acquaintances were not ordinary people, but individuals who genuinely liked him. He mentioned famous pastors like Kim Poong-il, who owned a thousand churches, and Ok Han-heum, who, despite being older, treated him as an equal and sought his counsel on church direction and theological matters. He stated that those with discernment quickly recognized his true identity and sought his company for meals and discussions. He explained that these prominent figures consulted him on personal matters, such as family issues and church problems, because his advice was always accurate. He noted that they were amazed by his knowledge, which surpassed their own despite leading large churches. He emphasized the importance of discernment, stating that he is accompanied by angels, while others are not, thus lacking his insight. He recounted instances where famous pastors and elder monks sought his guidance on sensitive family matters, such as relocating ancestral graves, as they themselves could not find answers. He stated that his advice brought them clarity and relief. -
Political Engagements and Presidential Candidates
Huh Kyung-young recounted how prominent religious leaders sought his advice on complex family matters, such as the relocation of ancestral graves, as they found conflicting opinions among local residents and lacked the spiritual insight to make a decision. He then presented a photograph with several presidential candidates, including Lee Jae-myung, President Yoon, Shim Sang-jung, the Gyeonggi Provincial Governor, and Ahn Cheol-soo. He noted that some were praying, while he was performing a 분향 (焚香), meaning “incense offering,” which he considered a dignified act. He explained that the photograph was taken at Kim Young-sam’s grave in the National Cemetery, where he was among six presidential candidates, all wearing black ties, performing the incense offering. He emphasized the historical significance of the photograph, highlighting the rarity of such a gathering. He stated that this was possible only because he is the God-man. He mentioned that the photograph was taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, when all candidates wore masks during their campaigns. He then displayed another photograph from the same day with President Yoon and Lee Jae-myung, remarking on his own appearance in the picture, particularly his forehead, which he described as the forehead of a leader who would guide the future world, not just Korea. -
Lifelong Service and the Value of Scriptures
Huh Kyung-young reiterated his lifelong service of 55 years, during which he distributed hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Bibles. He predicted that soon people would come forward with these texts, and he would pay them one million won per book. He explained that he no longer possessed any of these books himself. He clarified that the distribution was not random but took place at Buddhist and Christian events, where he would give out thousands of copies. He contrasted his actions with those who would call him a thief or a swindler, emphasizing that he also distributed free umbrellas during rain. He expressed his frustration with law enforcement officials who misunderstood his intentions, stating that he was showing his photographs to clarify his true identity. He announced that the title of today’s lecture was “Huh Kyung-young’s Photographs.” -
Enduring Relationships with Religious Leaders
Huh Kyung-young emphasized his close relationships with prominent religious leaders since his youth, including former Presidents of the Jogye Order such as Kang Seok-joo, Oh Nok-won, and Hwang Jin-kyung. He noted that he had not met the most recent Presidents but had been close to all the former ones, including Lee Jin-gwan, who was also a President of Dongguk University, and Ven. Beopjang. He stated that he had met all the former Presidents of the Jogye Order and the Korean Christian Council, and that he was always positioned at the center of their events, as evidenced by the photographs. He challenged anyone to claim he was a mere swindler, given his presence alongside the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, the Korean Buddhist Sangharaja, the Japanese Sangharaja, and the Presidents of various Buddhist denominations, including the Jogye, Taego, and Jingak Orders, as well as the president of the Korean Buddhist Laymen’s Association. He described the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, Venerable Chandananda, as a formidable figure who carried a large fan. He mentioned that Kang Seok-joo, the former President of the Jogye Order, had passed away. -
Early Life and Connections with Influential Figures
Huh Kyung-young commented on his attire in a photograph, noting that he did not recall wearing such clothes but found the pigeon-gray color to be quite fitting, resembling a monk’s robe. He then identified the location as the 13th floor of the Hankook Ilbo building, where Miss Korea pageants were held. He mentioned his participation as a judge in the Miss Korea pageant, attributing his connection to a schoolmate who was the son of Jang Ki-young, the former chairman of Hankook Ilbo. He frequently visited Hankook Ilbo and met Chairman Jang Ki-young, who also served as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Planning during President Park’s era. He explained that Chairman Jang Ki-young’s adopted son, Jeon Gil-chang, who was his schoolmate and worked as a secretary in Chairman Jang’s office, later became the president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate before his untimely death. He also mentioned his acquaintance with Moon Hee, the daughter-in-law of Jang Kang-jae, Chairman Jang Ki-young’s son, whom he met several times at Chairman Jang’s residence in Seosomun. He concluded by stating that he had a fascinating past. -
National Revolutionary Party Convention and Public Support
Huh Kyung-young then presented photographs from the National Revolutionary Party convention, showing approximately 400 women presenting him with flower bouquets. He also displayed a wider shot of the event, indicating that around 100,000 people had gathered. He showed a video clip of the event, noting that the flower presentation alone took two hours, causing some complaints due to the delay. He emphasized that no other party convention in history had witnessed such a massive outpouring of flower presentations or such a large crowd, with an estimated 100,000 people inside and outside the venue. -
The Party’s History and the God-man’s Journey
Huh Kyung-young stated that the convention took place in 2019, meaning the party’s founding history was less than 10 years old. However, he clarified that he had established parties multiple times since his forties, indicating that his journey was not a recent phenomenon. He emphasized that the God-man did not simply appear and establish Sky Temple but possessed a vast history and tradition. -
Early Political Engagements and Connections with Kim Dae-jung
Huh Kyung-young requested a photograph of his entrance at the convention, rather than the flower presentation. He then displayed a photograph with President Kim Dae-jung, where he was seated next to the President at a New Democratic Party convention. He explained that he was invited due to his popularity among older politicians, and he was seated on the dais next to the chairman of the convention. He noted that the photograph was taken more than a decade before Kim Dae-jung became president, specifically in September 1989. He stated that he and Kim Dae-jung were able to converse, and many current Democratic Party lawmakers were also present. He mentioned that he had met many former presidents and high-ranking officials during his youth, but he had not disclosed all of his connections, which he claimed would be beyond imagination. He reiterated that his distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures was a little-known fact, but people would soon come forward with these ancient texts. -
Unveiling the God-man’s Hidden Contributions
Huh Kyung-young stated that as the God-man, he no longer needed to conceal his past contributions, even though he had previously refrained from boasting. He recounted his meetings with Kim Dae-jung, even after Kim Dae-jung’s imprisonment, implying his discreet assistance across political divides. He emphasized his impartiality, having connections with both ruling and opposition parties, which prevented him from criticizing any political entity. He noted that he began his presidential campaigns concurrently with Kim Dae-jung, even running as a competitor in 1997 when Kim Dae-jung was elected president. He reiterated his policy of never criticizing any political party or leader due to his extensive connections with their predecessors. -
The God-man’s Entrance and the Path of a Leader
Huh Kyung-young requested a video of his entrance, noting that he did not immediately ascend the stage but first took a seat before addressing the audience. The moderator introduced him as the sole hope, the one who would restore the nation and save humanity, urging the audience to firmly believe in Huh Kyung-young as a great leader. Huh Kyung-young then explained that national leaders must endure hardships, citing Kim Dae-jung’s multiple imprisonments. He stated that even though he is a “golden spoon” from heaven, he must experience human suffering to understand why people commit sins. He described his life as one of continuous service and giving, rather than taking. He predicted that in the coming week, people would bring forth the scriptures he distributed, which would be evidence of his past actions. -
Connections with Former Presidents and Influential Figures
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken at a memorial service for President Park, where he was seated with former Presidents Choi Kyu-hah, Chun Doo-hwan, and Roh Tae-woo. He pointed out the presence of President Park’s former secretary next to him and identified the man next to him as the head of the Agency for National Security Planning. He emphasized that his seating position, behind Choi Kyu-hah, was not easily accessible, as the area was strictly controlled by security personnel. He identified Park Se-jik, the former Olympic Committee chairman, in the third row, highlighting the difficulty of securing a seat in the second row. He reiterated that he was not a liar, as his presence in such significant events, surrounded by influential figures, proved his credibility. He dismissed claims that his photographs, including one with Donald Trump, were fake. He then displayed a photograph with Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man, identifying them as family members of the former president. He also pointed out former Prosecutor General Lee Geun-gye, whose father was President Park’s elementary school teacher, emphasizing the prominent status of everyone in the photograph. He then identified Baek Nam-eok, the former chairman of the Republican Party and President Park’s maternal uncle, indicating that the gathering was composed of family members. He stated that these historical photographs, though not widely publicized, demonstrated his significant connections and refuted any claims that he was an unknown figure. -
Further Political and International Connections
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with President Lee Myung-bak at a party, where they were seen toasting each other. He then showed a photograph with Park Ji-man and another with Park Geun-hye and Park Seo-young. He identified Park Jun-hong, President Park’s nephew and the son of her elder brother, whose sister was Kim Jong-pil’s wife. He noted that Park Jun-hong had been part of his campaign team. He then displayed a photograph taken at New York Airport with the IOC President and Han Seung-soo, the former Ambassador to the U.S. and President Park Chung-hee’s son-in-law. He emphasized the significance of these individuals, particularly the IOC President, who is globally recognized, and Han Seung-soo, who represented Korea in the U.S. He described the photograph as being taken inside a shuttle bus at New York Airport, highlighting the casual yet significant nature of the encounter. -
Interactions with Park Geun-hye and Event Participation
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with Park Seo-young and another with Park Geun-hye, taken at a photo exhibition dedicated to President Park Chung-hee. He explained that his presence at such events was prearranged. He noted that journalists were present, capturing their interactions. He then displayed a photograph from an event hosted by the Korea Racing Authority during President Kim Young-sam’s administration, where Park Geun-hye was also present. He pointed out his designated seat and Park Geun-hye’s warm smile and extended hand upon his arrival, emphasizing the rarity of her open expression. He stated that she then sat next to him. He asserted that his designated seat at the main table, alongside Park Geun-hye and the event host, was not a fabricated scenario. He then showed a photograph of himself standing during the national anthem, alongside Park Geun-hye, the head of the Korea Racing Authority, and the Governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do, with lawmakers in the background. He emphasized his prominent position in the front row. He clarified that the event was a year-end concert in 2006 to raise funds for children from low-income families, hosted by an NGO, and that only invited guests were present. He mentioned that Park Geun-hye donated 15 million won to the cause. -
Close Proximity and Trust with Park Geun-hye
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself seated at the event, alongside the head of the Korea Racing Authority and the Governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do. He then showed a photograph where Park Geun-hye was leaning on him, while he appeared to be asleep due to fatigue. He explained that he was genuinely dozing off during the long event, indicating his busy schedule at the time. He emphasized that his seating and standing positions at the event, particularly at the main table, were not random. He highlighted the significance of his proximity to Park Geun-hye, especially given that she had recently been attacked with a razor blade, making security and trust paramount. He noted her bright smile and handshake upon his arrival, and his subsequent seating next to her, which he considered undeniable proof of their relationship. He reiterated that her smile was genuine and rare, and that his presence next to her, even when she was vulnerable, demonstrated a high level of trust. -
International Engagements and Encounters with U.S. Politicians
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself and Park Geun-hye taken in Washington, D.C., noting the unique nature of such a picture. He then displayed a photograph from a Democratic Party event in Maryland, U.S., on January 21, 2001, where he was invited to speak. He mentioned that many Korean expatriates were present, and he was seated in the front row. He expressed his frustration with those who claimed his meetings, including one with Donald Trump, were fabricated, asserting that the truth would eventually be revealed. He then showed a photograph with Donald Trump, pointing out his own attire and the presence of Chairman Lim Cheong-geun, whose impressive resume included interactions with multiple U.S. presidents. He described Chairman Lim as a charismatic figure who commanded respect from presidents, despite his physical stature. -
Bush Inauguration Party and Prominent Attendees
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself at a U.S. presidential inauguration party at Union Station, where he was invited by a co-chairman of the Republican Party’s election committee, who also served as a co-chairman for President Bush. He identified the presence of the head monk of Dae Gak Sa Temple in Busan, known for its immense wealth. He also pointed out the White House emblem, Kim Deok-ryong, a lawmaker, and another lawmaker from Mapo. He mentioned that he had separate meetings with these individuals, as they were not present when he met President Bush. He also noted the presence of Park Geun-hye, the former Senior Secretary for Economic Affairs to the President, and Sohn Gil-seung, the former chairman of the Federation of Korean Industries. -
Distinguishing Between Elite and General Parties
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with Kim Dong-young and another lawmaker, noting their attire. He then contrasted this with a photograph from the exclusive Union Station party, attended by only 300 people worldwide. He clarified that the previous photograph with lawmakers was taken at a different, less exclusive hotel party, which he attended after the main Bush inauguration party. He emphasized the difference in venue, noting the 30-meter high ceiling of the Union Station party hall, compared to the much lower ceiling of the hotel party. He reiterated that the Union Station party was the exclusive venue where he met President Bush, while the hotel party was a secondary event where he encountered Korean lawmakers. -
Exclusive Bush Party vs. Hotel Gatherings
Huh Kyung-young further distinguished between the exclusive Bush inauguration party and other gatherings. He explained that the hotel party, where he met Korean lawmakers, had a visible ceiling, unlike the grand Union Station party with its towering, seemingly endless ceiling. He clarified that the hotel party was a “C-grade” event, which he visited after the main party, upon hearing that Park Geun-hye was there. He stated that he took photographs with her upon meeting. He noted that many of the prominent figures from that era have since retired. He then presented a photograph from another hotel party, again emphasizing the visible ceiling, indicating that it was not the Bush party. He mentioned that this was where he encountered Korean expatriates. He described the Union Station party as a “special-grade” event, with a grand entrance and a dress code that required women to remove their coats, which were then checked by male attendants. He noted that he, however, entered in his regular attire. He pointed out the presence of women, including a vice president of the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association, at the Bush party. He then showed a photograph from a hotel party, not the Union Station party, where he was pictured with a couple, possibly from Mexico. He contrasted the diverse attendees at the hotel with the exclusively “gentle” crowd at the A-grade party he attended. He also mentioned the presence of over a hundred limousines, six to seven meters long, outside the Union Station. -
Diverse Encounters at Hotel Parties
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken at a hotel, again emphasizing the visible ceiling, indicating that it was not the exclusive Bush party. He noted that many Korean expatriates were present at this hotel gathering. He then showed a photograph with a Chinese woman, remarking on her distinctive earrings. He recounted how many people, including this Chinese woman, sought to take photographs with him at the American party, drawn by his popularity. He described her as a captivating woman with a unique style and confidence, noting her meter-long earrings. He also showed a photograph of her on the phone at the reception desk, highlighting her distinctive appearance. He concluded that East Asian women stood out among the American women. He then presented a photograph of Korean expatriate couples at the Bush party. -
The Grandeur of the Bush Party
Huh Kyung-young described the Bush party as having distinct and elaborate tableware, with ornate and unique cups, unlike those found in hotels. He noted that all the chairs were made of brass and adorned with flower arrangements. He emphasized that all the service staff were African Americans, neatly lined up and serving guests. He stated that this was a top-tier party, attended by the world’s elite. He then showed a photograph from a hotel party, not the Bush party, where he was pictured with a Caucasian woman, noting that beautiful women could be found among Caucasians as well. He mentioned that many women, in particular, sought to take photographs with him. He reiterated that this was a hotel in Washington, D.C., and not the Bush party, despite claims to the contrary. He also showed photographs with an Iranian woman and a Swedish woman, among many others who took pictures with him. -
Contrasting Crowds and the God-man’s Uniqueness
Huh Kyung-young commented on the physical appearance of some attendees at the hotel parties, noting the presence of heavier individuals with distinct facial features, unlike the more refined crowd at the exclusive Bush party. He humorously described some women’s large hips. He reiterated that the Bush party did not have such diverse individuals, but the hotel parties were filled with a variety of people. He concluded by asking if all his photographs had been shown. -
International Recognition and Unforeseen Journeys
Huh Kyung-young requested to see any remaining photographs, including those taken in Beijing, China, specifically in front of Tiananmen Square and a war memorial. He noted that Chinese photographs were less interesting. He then emphasized that his photographs revealed his past activities, refuting claims that he was a mere swindler living in the mountains. He recounted an incident where the U.S. Ambassador personally arranged his visa and flight ticket to the U.S. within a day, after a month-long investigation by the CIA into his office and home. He described being unexpectedly whisked away to the U.S. for a Bush presidential invitation, only to have his trip later dismissed as fake by the courts. He stated that he chose to remain silent at the time, but the truth would eventually be revealed. He then introduced the concept of 정금 (正金), meaning “pure gold,” which is 99.9% pure, and 순금 (純金), also 99.9% pure, both representing 24K gold. He contrasted this with 18K gold, which is 70% pure, and 14K gold, which is 45% pure. -
Early Life as a Goldsmith and the Harsh Realities of Labor
Huh Kyung-young recounted his experience working in a gold factory during his high school years, where he was employed by a pastor to earn money for his education. He described the process of cutting large gold ingots with a sharp knife and hammer, then weighing them to mix with brass to create 18K or 14K gold. He explained that melting gold and brass produced black, bluish smoke, which contained impurities and caused him to suffer nosebleeds daily due to the inhalation of cyanide powder. He noted that the factory had no windows to prevent gold dust from escaping, and the floor was covered with tatami mats to collect any fallen gold particles, which were later recovered by burning the mats. He mentioned that while he did not produce gold dust, other goldsmiths who filed and shaped gold generated a lot of it. He stated that after a few months, he was removed from the factory by the “Sky Temple” due to the severe health risks. He explained that a quantity of gold went missing, and he, being the last to arrive, was suspected and subsequently dismissed. He expressed relief at being fired, as it saved him from further exposure to the toxic environment. He described the process of making gold noodles from the molten alloy, which were then cut and given to the ring-making team. He witnessed the entire process of crafting and polishing gold rings, which were primarily for export. He reiterated his aversion to impurities, explaining that if the gold was not thoroughly purified, the rings would break due to internal flaws. He recalled the arduous work and the dedication of the laborers who endured such harsh conditions without complaint, working year-round for their wages. He expressed his respect for these workers, acknowledging their sacrifices to provide for their families, which often led to labor disputes. He concluded that understanding their struggles fostered empathy and the realization that workers deserved better protection. -
The Three Minds: Superficial, Inner, and True
Huh Kyung-young then shifted to a philosophical discussion, introducing the concept of 심 (心), 충 (衷), and 성 (性), representing the superficial mind, inner mind, and true mind, respectively. He explained that 간청 (懇請), meaning “earnest request,” should be made with the 충심 (衷心), meaning “inner sincerity,” not with 진심 (眞心), meaning “true heart,” or 성심 (誠心), meaning “sincere heart.” He clarified that 충심 (衷心) refers to the inner mind, which is always recognized more than the superficial mind. He emphasized that using 충성 (忠誠), meaning “loyalty,” in this context would be incorrect, as 충심 (衷心) is the appropriate term for making a heartfelt request. He then categorized individuals based on these minds: 속인 (俗人), meaning “common person,” operates with the superficial mind; 도인 (道人), meaning “person of the Way,” uses the inner mind; and 신인 (神人), meaning “God-man,” embodies the true mind. -
The Three Minds and Their Connection to Human Experience
Huh Kyung-young explained that the 성 (性), or true mind, is the 본성 (本性), meaning “original nature,” and is the mind of the God-man. He stated that this true mind, along with the inner mind and superficial mind, resides within everyone. He noted that people perceive his photographs differently because their minds are all unique. He then introduced the concept of 인심수도 (人心修道), meaning “the human mind cultivates the Way,” where the human mind (심) undergoes cultivation to become the inner mind (충). He further explained 일신강충 (一神降衷), meaning “one God descends into the inner mind,” which refers to the inner mind received from heaven, representing the mind of a saint, or the mind from a past life, our subconscious. Finally, he introduced 성통광명 (性通光明), meaning “the true mind communicates with the light of heaven and earth,” which is the mind of a sage, connected to the universal light. He emphasized that these three minds—superficial, inner, and true—are distinct. -
The Three Principles of the Great Learning
Huh Kyung-young then connected these concepts to the 대학 (大學), meaning “Great Learning,” a classic Confucian text. He stated that mastering the Great Learning in ancient times was more profound than completing a hundred modern universities. He outlined the three major principles of the Great Learning:
명명지덕 (明明之德): “Illustrating illustrious virtue,” which he equated to 성통광명 (性通光明), learning to live brightly.
친민상생 (親民相生): “Loving the people and coexisting,” which is the second principle, emphasizing interaction and coexistence with all people, avoiding the accumulation of enemies.
지어지선 (止於至善): “Resting in the highest good,” which means striving for the ultimate good and refraining from any action that is not supremely virtuous.
He explained that these three principles encapsulate the entire content of the Great Learning. He further elaborated that 명명지덕 (明明之德) means seeing everything brightly, 친민상생 (親民相生) means considering others with the inner mind, recognizing that even competitors could be family or past-life relatives, thus preventing conflict. 지어지선 (止於至善), the highest good, is equivalent to 성통광명 (性通光明). He stated that a truly virtuous person cannot commit evil. He presented this explanation of the Great Learning, which he learned in his youth, as a way to make the complex classical text more accessible. -
The God-man’s Power and Unwavering Purpose
Huh Kyung-young stated that his photographs revealed much about him that people did not know, particularly his busy and impactful youth. He asserted his ability to manifest resources, even when facing seemingly impossible situations, such as needing 10 billion won for a presidential campaign with only a few months remaining. He claimed that if he decided to run for president, the money would materialize. He also stated that if he decided to build Sky Temple, it would be built quickly, even if he started with nothing. He acknowledged that his rapid progress often attracted “anti-fans” who acted as brakes, preventing him from moving too fast, like preventing a car accident. -
Legal Challenges and Unjust Accusations
Huh Kyung-young then addressed recent legal challenges, stating that his “anti-fans” were cornered. He referred to a news article from Naewoe Economic TV, which reported that his side was raising concerns about the legitimacy of the police investigation. He explained that the individual who initiated the complaint, referred to as “Mr. J,” illegally stole a hard drive containing his lecture content from the Bonjwa Providence Association office and submitted it to the police. He asserted that the police used this illegally obtained evidence without proper review or his consent, which is a violation of legal procedure. He cited a Supreme Court ruling from November of the previous year, which stated that seizing electronic information submitted by a third party without the owner’s consent violates the warrant principle and due process, rendering both the information and any secondary evidence obtained from it inadmissible. He stated that his legal team argued that the police’s failure to even notify him of the hard drive’s seizure, and their subsequent analysis and use of the data, constituted a clear illegal act. He also criticized the police for exaggerating certain expressions from his lecture videos to fabricate criminal charges. He noted that the police’s admission of reviewing all his lecture videos implied their active use of illegally obtained material. He stated that his legal team demanded a re-investigation of all witness and suspect interrogations conducted based on this illegal evidence. He also announced his intention to file a special larceny charge against Mr. J and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigation methods. He further alleged that Mr. J orchestrated a collective false accusation and defamation campaign, potentially involving a planned effort to gather people, mostly his own family members, and mislead them into filing sexual harassment charges under the guise of helping them receive money. He stated that many of these individuals were unaware that they were filing sexual harassment complaints. He concluded that the legitimacy of the police’s evidence collection was now in question, and the outcome of the investigation was uncertain. He mentioned that his legal team had obtained court documents showing Mr. J’s instructions to others not to reveal that he had provided the hard drive, fearing repercussions from Huh Kyung-young. He reiterated that he had not committed embezzlement or fraud, and that the police’s use of the illegally obtained videos, interpreted from their own perspective, rendered all previous investigations null and void, requiring a fresh start. He stated that all charges, including fraud, embezzlement, and sexual harassment, were invalid due to the illegal evidence. He noted that this news had been reported by several media outlets, including Sisa Magazine, JOBPOST, Handmaker, and e-Science, all highlighting the illegality of the police investigation. He concluded that a massive illegal act had been committed. -
The God-man’s Unblemished Record and Lifelong Dedication
Huh Kyung-young emphasized that he is not an ordinary person, but a God-man, as evidenced by his interactions with top religious leaders in Korea and his extensive distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, an unparalleled act of service. He also highlighted his 55 years of free meal programs, an initiative that costs 2 billion won annually. He questioned why someone like him, who has consistently run for president, would engage in illegal activities, as such actions would disqualify him. He stated that he has pursued 지어지선 (止於至善), 친민상생 (親民相生), and 명명지덕 (明明之德) since childhood, never consuming alcohol, coffee, tobacco, cola, or soda, only cold water. He explained that he saved money through this austere lifestyle to fund his presidential campaigns and address national issues like the declining birthrate, a concern he raised 30 years ago when others dismissed him as insane. He warned that what could have been easily prevented then now requires immense effort, as rural areas are increasingly populated by foreigners, making it unsafe at night. He predicted that within decades, it would be difficult to find Koreans in rural areas, as they would all be concentrated in cities, leaving the countryside to foreign farmers. He reiterated that he had attempted to prevent this trend 30 years ago. -
Acknowledgment and Musical Interlude
The moderator acknowledged Huh Kyung-young’s “glorious chapter of memories” and his remarkable encounters with influential figures, inviting a round of applause. The moderator then announced a video of the free meal program. Huh Kyung-young requested that photographs of Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio be displayed during the free meal video, emphasizing their importance. He noted that Marco Rubio is currently the Secretary of State. He then showed a photograph with Cory Gardner and another with Marco Rubio, identifying the latter as a mayor. He then played a video of Marco Rubio speaking, where Rubio expressed concern about the nation’s future and the need to re-evaluate existing approaches while preserving Republican ideals. Rubio stated his excitement for a new government and his belief that the person he supported would win. Huh Kyung-young identified Marco Rubio as Donald Trump’s right-hand man, who became the Secretary of State, traveling the world on Trump’s behalf. He mentioned that Trump had introduced him to Rubio. He noted the height of Rubio’s bodyguards and Rubio’s position as a leading Republican presidential candidate, while Trump was initially 16th. He highlighted the irony of Trump becoming president and Rubio becoming Secretary of State. He then showed a photograph of himself having lunch with Cory Gardner, the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy. He stated that Gardner’s refusal to sign a document prevented a war with North Korea. He showed a photograph of himself and a North Korean representative at a meeting with Cory Gardner, where the discussion revolved around a potential invasion of North Korea the following day. He described the intense atmosphere, with all parties looking serious. He mentioned his advocacy for FVID (Fully Verifiably Irreversibly Dismantle), meaning “fully, verifiably, irreversibly dismantle,” while the U.S. side advocated for CVPE (Completely Verifiably Permanently Eliminate), meaning “completely, verifiably, permanently eliminate.” He stated that his more moderate approach ultimately prevailed, preventing the war. He then showed a close-up of his serious expression during the meeting. He then transitioned to a musical performance, with singers performing songs such as “Jin Sa Seong In Chul” (辰巳聖人出), meaning “The Saint Appears in the Years of Dragon and Snake,” “Respect,” “Nang Jung Ji Chu” (囊中之錐), meaning “Awl in the Bag,” and “The Road to Sky Temple.” He granted “Level 3,000 Mu” blessings to the singers and the audience, including their ancestors, for each song performed. He then granted “Level 10,000 Mu” to all participants. He concluded by expressing gratitude to the God-man for the profound inspiration.

Gratitude and the God-man’s Presence
Huh Kyung-young extended his greetings to those gathered at Sky Temple and to viewers worldwide, wishing them blessings from the God-man. He stated that the God-man has mastered all worldly knowledge and various religions, possessing a tenth-dimensional spiritual insight that allows him to foresee the future. He anticipated that people from all over the world, recognizing him as the God-man, would soon flock to him in great numbers. He then introduced individuals who presented orchid pots as tokens of gratitude. These included the couple Lee Eun-joo and Yoo Jae-hoon, whose mothers, Hong Sung-soon and Lee Min-jung, were healed of Hepatitis A. Son Young-bum, a great archangel, and Kim Jung-kyu, another great archangel, also presented orchid pots expressing their respect. Finally, Yoon Soon-hee, an angel, offered an orchid pot to express deep gratitude for meeting the God-man. Huh Kyung-young then remarked on his constant presence at Sky Temple, contrasting it with the absence of spouses at home, and noted his continuous lectures, both morning and afternoon, which have been widely viewed by many, including famous individuals. He announced that today’s session would feature photographs from his past. -
Extensive Connections with Religious and Political Figures
Huh Kyung-young recounted his extensive connections with prominent figures in both the Buddhist and Christian communities in Korea. He mentioned meeting all the major Buddhist leaders and being well-acquainted with significant Christian figures. He displayed a photograph with Pastor Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church, noting that the picture was several decades old. He also mentioned a photograph with President Kim Dae-jung. Huh Kyung-young stated that he was very close to religious leaders in his youth, including Pastors Cho Yong-gi, Kim Poong-il, and Ok Han-eum. He noted that Pastor Oh Jung-hyun of Sarang Church originated from Naesudong Church, where Huh Kyung-young had been raised as the son of a pastor. He asserted that his understanding of Christianity surpassed that of current seminary professors. -
Philanthropic Distribution of Scriptures
Huh Kyung-young described his extensive philanthropic work, distributing hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during his youth. He offered a reward to anyone who could bring him a copy of these scriptures bearing his name as a donor, stating that he would pay for their travel and the value of the book. He explained that he had distributed these texts free of charge, often without his name, under the principle of “무상보시” (selfless giving). He estimated the value of the distributed Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles to be around 10 billion Korean Won each. He clarified that this was part of his 55 years of service, which included not only free meal services but also the distribution of various sacred texts, including the Analects of Confucius and Mencius. He explained that this initiative aimed to address the high illiteracy rate of 80-90% among the populace, providing concise versions of the Buddhist Tripitaka and Bibles, often labeled as “Buddhist Sacred Texts” and published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures. He contrasted this with others who spent their money on alcohol or coffee, emphasizing his dedication to distributing books. -
Prominent Position in Buddhist and Christian Gatherings
Huh Kyung-young highlighted his significant standing in major religious events. He noted that Pastor Cho Yong-gi, a prominent figure in the Christian community, rarely took photos with ordinary congregants but was photographed with Huh Kyung-young, emphasizing the significance of their shared presence. He then presented a photograph from a large Buddhist event in Yeouido, where he appeared very young. He identified himself alongside the Sri Lankan Sangharaja (Supreme Patriarch) Chandananda Thero, and Kang Seok-joo, the then-President of the Jogye Order. He pointed out his presence among the highest-ranking Buddhist leaders from Sri Lanka, Japan, and Korea, including the President of the Jogye Order, at a lantern parade and grand Dharma assembly attended by a million people in Yeouido Plaza. He also identified Professor Park Wan-il, the president of the National Buddhist Lay Association of Dongguk University, standing beside him. He stated that his contributions to the Korean Buddhist community were immeasurable, leading to his invitation to such prominent positions. He clarified that this event took place when he was in his 40s, emphasizing his extensive service during his youth. He also mentioned his role as an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association during the Buddha’s Birthday celebrations, hosted by the Korean Buddhist Denominational Council. He noted his central position among various denominational leaders, including the President of the Jogye Order, the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, and the Japanese Buddhist Sangharaja, along with Professor Park Wan-il. -
Engagement in Social and Political Activism
Huh Kyung-young described his involvement in social and political activism during his younger years. He recalled participating in demonstrations in front of Myeongdong Cathedral during the military regime, advocating for economic justice and addressing wealth inequality. He displayed a photograph of himself holding a picket sign alongside Auditor Lee Moon-ok and representatives of the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice, including Assemblyman Kim Geun-tae. He stated that he was not merely someone afflicted with “Presidential disease” but a God-man who had actively supported both the Buddhist and Christian communities. He asserted that with the arrival of the God-man, the era of sectarian divisions had ended, as evidenced by the presence of priests, Buddhists, and Christians at Sky Temple. -
The God-man’s Unique Insight and Guidance
Huh Kyung-young reiterated his distribution of religious scriptures and predicted that people would soon come forward with these books, offering 1 million Korean Won for each copy bearing his name. He suggested that parents of younger generations might possess these books. He characterized his service as “법보시” (Dharma giving), emphasizing that he distributed Bibles and Buddhist scriptures without any particular religious affiliation, simply encouraging people to listen to and read the words of the saints. He stated that he was welcomed by both Buddhists and Christians, noting his equal standing with prominent figures like Pastor Cho Yong-gi. -
Continued Engagement with Buddhist Leaders
Huh Kyung-young continued to discuss his interactions with Buddhist leaders, mentioning a photograph with Oh Nok-won, who succeeded Kang Seok-joo as the President of the Jogye Order. He also presented a photograph taken on a building rooftop with singer Song Chun-hee, identifying Oh Nok-won as the President of the Jogye Order and the head of the Military Buddhist Chaplaincy. He noted the presence of other prominent Buddhist figures and emphasized his youthful appearance in these photos, contrasting it with his current self. He also commented on Pastor Cho Yong-gi’s impressive demeanor and attire. He concluded this section by stating that his extensive religious activities were not merely a sudden creation of Sky Temple but a long-standing effort to promote various religions. -
Connections with Military and Entertainment Figures
Huh Kyung-young continued to emphasize his extensive religious activities, stating that Sky Temple was not built overnight but was the culmination of his efforts to promote various religions, including Buddhism and Christianity. He reiterated his offer of 1 million Korean Won for any Bible or scripture bearing his name. He then presented a photograph with General Lee Jin-sam, a four-star general in the army. He explained that he attended Dongguk University Graduate School, where many high-ranking police officers and military generals were his classmates, fostering numerous connections during his youth. He also mentioned his attendance at Korea National Open University for law. He then showed a photograph with actor Oh Ji-myung, taken during his presidential campaign. He highlighted Oh Ji-myung’s reclusive nature after his role in “Soonpoong Clinic” and his refusal of media interviews or appearances, yet his active support for Huh Kyung-young’s presidential campaign. Huh Kyung-young interpreted this as Oh Ji-myung’s ability to recognize the God-man, stating that Oh Ji-myung saw him as a person worthy of respect. He noted that Oh Ji-myung, despite knowing the high probability of his defeat, campaigned for him without seeking any financial compensation, viewing it as a volunteer effort. He then announced that Oh Ji-myung and his wife, Yoo Yeon-hee, would receive a “Level 1 million-mu” blessing. He asserted that he was not the person portrayed by the media but someone who had associated with top religious figures since his youth. -
Recognition by Entertainment Icons
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with the late entertainer Song Hae, noting that special individuals in the entertainment industry recognized and favored him. He emphasized the significance of entertainers taking photos with him, given their public image, especially when he was often criticized. He suggested that Song Hae, despite being a public figure with access to information, chose to support him, indicating an ability to discern true character. He then mentioned that he had bestowed a “Level 1 million-mu” blessing upon Song Hae, the first person to receive such a high level. He reiterated that the people he met were not insignificant, including prominent pastors like Kim Poong-il and Ok Han-eum, who, despite being older, treated him as a peer and sought his counsel on church matters and personal issues. He stated that those who truly understood him quickly recognized his identity as the God-man. -
Divine Guidance in Personal and Spiritual Matters
Huh Kyung-young explained that people, including prominent pastors, consulted him on personal and spiritual matters, such as family issues, marital problems, and church direction. He stated that his advice was always accurate, leaving them wondering how he possessed such knowledge. He attributed this to his connection with angels, which others lacked. He gave examples of pastors seeking his guidance on sensitive issues like relocating ancestral graves, particularly when parents were buried in different locations or religious cemeteries. He stated that he could provide definitive answers, which they trusted over other opinions, as his insights came from a spiritual realm beyond human knowledge. -
Interactions with Presidential Candidates
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken with several presidential candidates, including Lee Jae-myung, Yoon Suk-yeol, Shim Sang-jung, and Ahn Cheol-soo, at the National Cemetery during a memorial service for Kim Young-sam. He noted his unique position, performing an incense offering while the other candidates stood by. He emphasized the historical significance of this photograph, showing him alongside five other presidential candidates, all wearing black ties, during a period when masks were worn due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He drew attention to his forehead in the photograph, suggesting it was not an ordinary forehead but one destined to lead the future world. He reiterated his 55 years of service, including the distribution of hundreds of thousands of scriptures, and anticipated that people would soon come forward with these books. He again highlighted his unique appearance among the presidential candidates, particularly his forehead. -
Unprecedented Philanthropy and Public Service
Huh Kyung-young questioned whether anyone else had, from a young age, earned their own money to distribute hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Bibles, contrasting it with those who sought to accumulate wealth for personal gain. He stated that those who received these books free of charge would likely confirm this when they came to claim their reward. He described the effort involved in distributing these thick scriptures at Buddhist and Christian events, not randomly to passersby, but to attendees. He also mentioned distributing free umbrellas during rain, emphasizing his extensive public service. He expressed frustration at being labeled a “thief” or “swindler” by those who were ignorant of his past, including police officers, and stated that he was showing these photographs to clarify his true identity. He then announced that the title of today’s lecture was “Huh Kyung-young’s Photos.” -
Enduring Connections with Influential Figures
Huh Kyung-young reiterated his close relationships with prominent figures from a young age, including former Presidents of the Jogye Order such as Kang Seok-joo, Oh Nok-won, and Hwang Jin-kyung, as well as Lee Jin-gwan, who was also the President of Dongguk University. He mentioned meeting all the past Presidents of the Jogye Order and the Korean Christian Coalition, emphasizing that these photographs served as proof of his central position at their events. He challenged the notion that he was a mere swindler, pointing to his presence alongside the Sri Lankan Sangharaja, the Korean Buddhist Sangharaja, and the Japanese Sangharaja, as well as the Presidents of various Buddhist denominations, all gathered in the center. He noted the distinctive large fan carried by the Sri Lankan Sangharaja Chandananda Thero and mentioned that Kang Seok-joo had passed away. -
Historical Ties and Media Connections
Huh Kyung-young commented on his attire in an old photograph, noting that the dove-gray suit color suited him, resembling a monk’s robe. He identified the location as the 13th floor of the Hankook Ilbo building, where the Miss Korea pageant was held, and mentioned his participation as a judge. He explained his frequent visits to Hankook Ilbo due to a schoolmate who was the adopted son of Chairman Jang Ki-young, a former Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Planning during President Park Chung-hee’s era. He described his interactions with Chairman Jang and his adopted son, Jeon Gil-chang, who later became a president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate before his untimely death. He also mentioned his acquaintance with Moon Hee, the daughter-in-law of Chairman Jang’s brother, whom he met at the Jang family residence in Seosomun. He concluded by stating that he had a very interesting past. -
Unprecedented Support at National Revolutionary Party Convention
Huh Kyung-young presented photographs from the National Revolutionary Party convention, showing approximately 400 women presenting him with flower bouquets. He noted the sheer number of people, estimated at 100,000, who gathered for the event, both inside and outside the venue. He described the overwhelming response, where the flower presentation alone took two hours, causing a stir at the convention. He emphasized that such a large gathering and the unprecedented number of flower presentations were unheard of in the history of political party conventions in Korea. He stated that other parties’ conventions rarely saw such crowds, and his party’s event was so popular that many people could not even enter the venue. -
A Long History of Party Foundation and Service
Huh Kyung-young stated that the convention took place in 2019, noting that his party’s founding history was not yet 10 years old, although he had established political parties multiple times since his 40s. He emphasized that his journey was not a sudden creation of Sky Temple but one with a long and significant history. -
Early Political Engagements with Kim Dae-jung
Huh Kyung-young requested a photograph of his entrance at the convention, but then shifted to an older photograph. He identified himself sitting next to Kim Dae-jung at a New Democratic Party convention, emphasizing that he was invited due to his popularity among older politicians. He noted his position on the dais next to the convention chairman, with Kim Dae-jung raising his hand. He clarified that this photograph was taken more than a decade before Kim Dae-jung became president, specifically in September 1989. He stated that he and Kim Dae-jung were able to converse, and that many current National Assembly members were also present. He mentioned that he had never publicly revealed his extensive distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, but that people would soon come forward with these ancient texts. -
Non-Partisan Stance and Presidential Candidacy
Huh Kyung-young stated that he had kept his philanthropic work private, but as a God-man, revealing it now would not diminish his blessings. He noted that he met Kim Dae-jung even when Kim Dae-jung was not yet president, including after his release from prison, implying a discreet collaboration. He asserted that he maintained connections across both ruling and opposition parties, which is why he never criticized any political party or figure, including Kim Dae-jung. He explained that he ran as a presidential candidate in 1997, the same year Kim Dae-jung was elected president, making them rivals who knew each other. He reiterated his non-partisan stance, stating that he was neither “야” (opposition) nor “여” (ruling party). -
The God-man’s Trials and Purpose
Huh Kyung-young then showed a video of his entrance, noting that he did not immediately go to the stage but sat in a designated area before ascending. He then played an audio clip of an announcer introducing him as the “only hope” who would restore the nation and save humanity, urging the audience to believe in him as a great leader. Huh Kyung-young then reflected on the necessity for national leaders to endure hardships, citing Kim Dae-jung’s multiple imprisonments. He stated that even as a God-man from Baekgung (Heavenly Palace), he had to experience human suffering to understand why humans commit sins and stray from the path. He described his life as one of continuous service and giving, rather than taking. He anticipated that in the coming week, people would bring forth the scriptures he had distributed, potentially earning millions of Korean Won. -
Interactions with Former Presidents and Dignitaries
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken during a memorial service for President Park Chung-hee, showing former Presidents Choi Kyu-hah, Chun Doo-hwan, and Roh Tae-woo seated in the front row. He identified himself sitting behind Choi Kyu-hah, emphasizing the significance of his position among such high-ranking officials and their security personnel. He also identified Park Se-jik, the former Olympic Committee Chairman, in the third row, highlighting the difficulty of securing a seat in the second row. He stated that he was not a liar, as some claimed, and that his presence at such events was genuine, refuting claims that even his photograph with Trump was fake. He then identified Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man in another photograph, noting them as family members of the former president. He also identified Lee Geun-gye, a former Prosecutor General whose father was President Park Chung-hee’s elementary school teacher. He pointed out Baek Nam-eok, the former chairman of the Republican Party and a relative of President Park Chung-hee’s mother, indicating the presence of family members. He stated that these historical photographs, though not widely publicized, proved his significant connections and refuted the idea that he was a sudden, unknown figure. -
Continued Political and Family Connections
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with President Lee Myung-bak at a party, showing them raising glasses together. He then showed a photograph with Park Ji-man and another with Park Geun-hye and Park Seo-young. He identified Park Jun-hong, President Park Chung-hee’s nephew and the son of his elder brother, whose sister was Kim Jong-pil’s wife. He noted that Park Jun-hong had been part of his campaign team. He then presented a photograph taken at New York Airport with Han Seung-soo, the former Ambassador to the U.S. and President Park Chung-hee’s son-in-law, and an IOC President, emphasizing the significance of these high-profile individuals. He stated that these were old photographs, highlighting the importance of these figures, even if they seemed insignificant to some. -
Unique Relationship with Park Geun-hye
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken at a Park Chung-hee photo exhibition with Park Geun-hye, noting that reporters were present and capturing their interactions. He then showed a photograph from an event hosted by the Korea Racing Authority during Kim Young-sam’s presidency, where Park Geun-hye was present. He identified his seat at the event and described Park Geun-hye’s unusually bright smile and extended hand towards him upon his arrival, emphasizing that she rarely smiled so openly. He showed photographs of them shaking hands and sitting together at the main table, which he identified as “Table 1,” reserved for the event’s organizers and key figures. He asserted that these were not fake photographs. -
Prominent Position at Charity Event and Personal Connection
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself standing with Park Geun-hye, the head of the Korea Racing Authority, and the Governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do during the national anthem at a 2006 year-end concert to raise funds for child heads of households. He emphasized that this was an invitation-only event, and Park Geun-hye had donated 15 million Korean Won. He then showed a photograph of himself sitting next to Park Geun-hye, who was leaning on him, while he appeared to be asleep due to fatigue. He explained that this occurred during a long event, highlighting his busy schedule. He noted that his seating at “Table 1” with Park Geun-hye and the event organizer was significant, especially given that Park Geun-hye had recently been attacked with a razor blade, making proximity to her a sensitive matter. He reiterated that his presence and their interactions, including her bright smile during their handshake, were genuine and not fabricated. -
International Engagements and Refuting False Claims
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken with a woman in Washington, D.C., noting that it was from a reception hosted by the Maryland Democratic Party in January 2001, attended by many Korean expatriates. He emphasized the significance of this photograph, refuting claims that he had not met Donald Trump. He then showed a photograph with Donald Trump, pointing out his attire and the presence of Chairman Lim Cheong-geun, who had a history of working with U.S. presidents. He described Lim Cheong-geun as a highly influential figure with a strong charisma, noting that Trump, despite his own powerful demeanor, appeared serious in their photograph. He reiterated that these were not fake photographs. -
High-Level U.S. Political Connections
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself at a U.S. presidential inauguration party at Union Station, which he described as an exclusive event for 300 guests from around the world. He identified the person who invited him as a co-chairman of the election campaign for President George W. Bush. He also identified the Venerable Jo-sil, the head monk of Dae Gak Sa Temple in Busan, known for its immense wealth. He pointed out the White House emblem in the photograph and identified Kim Deok-ryong, a National Assembly member, and another National Assembly member from Mapo. He noted that he had met these individuals separately from his meeting with Bush. He also mentioned Park Geun-hye, a former presidential economic advisor, and Son Gil-seung, the former chairman of the Federation of Korean Industries, who were also invited to the Bush party. -
Distinguishing Between Elite and General Parties
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph with Kim Dong-young and Assemblyman Jo Hee-jun, along with the Mapo National Assembly member, noting their attire. He then distinguished between the exclusive Union Station party, attended by 300 people worldwide, and another party where he met Korean National Assembly members. He clarified that the latter was a different venue, a hotel, with a much lower ceiling, indicating a less exclusive gathering. He explained that he visited this second party after the Bush inauguration party, upon hearing that Park Geun-hye was there, and took photographs with the Korean National Assembly members. He noted that these were old photographs, and the individuals in them were no longer active in politics. -
Exclusive Access to High-Profile Events
Huh Kyung-young further distinguished between the Bush inauguration party and other gatherings. He emphasized that the Bush party, held at Union Station, had a ceiling over 20 meters high, unlike the hotel parties with visible ceilings. He described the Union Station party as a grand event, attended by only 300 people from around the world, marking the beginning of Bush’s presidency. He noted that the Korean National Assembly members he met were at a second-tier party, not the exclusive Bush event. He described the Union Station party as having massive doors and a dress code where women removed their coats, which were then checked by men, a custom he observed. He pointed out the presence of the vice president of the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association at the Bush party. He then contrasted this with a hotel party where he met a couple, possibly from Mexico, and noted the presence of diverse ethnic groups, unlike the A-list party where only “gentle” people were present. He also mentioned seeing over a hundred limousines, 6-7 meters long, outside Union Station, belonging to the attendees. -
Diverse Encounters at Hotel Parties
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph taken at a hotel, identifiable by its visible ceiling, where he met Korean expatriates. He also showed a photograph with a Chinese woman, noting her distinctive earrings and confident demeanor. He stated that many people, including this Chinese woman, wanted to take pictures with him at the American party. He described her as a mysterious woman with a slender figure and unique facial features, wearing a China-style dress. He also showed a photograph of a woman on the phone at the hotel reception, noting her unique appearance. He stated that he found East Asian women more striking than American women. He then showed a photograph from the Bush party, highlighting the elaborate tableware, brass chairs, and flower arrangements, as well as the presence of African American staff serving guests. He emphasized that this was a world-class party. He then showed photographs from a hotel party, where he met various people, including a beautiful white woman, and noted that many women wanted to take pictures with him. He also showed photographs with an Iranian woman and a Swedish woman, reiterating that he had met many people at these hotel parties, refuting claims that he had not attended the Bush party. -
Observations on Diversity and Social Dynamics
Huh Kyung-young continued to describe his observations at the hotel parties, noting the physical appearance of some attendees, particularly women with large hips. He contrasted the diverse crowd at the hotel with the more exclusive and refined atmosphere of the Bush party, where such individuals were absent. He stated that the hotel parties offered a more varied social experience. He then asked if he had shown most of his photographs. -
International Travels and Refuting Legal Challenges
Huh Kyung-young presented photographs taken in Beijing, China, including one in front of Tiananmen Square and another in front of the Great Hall of the People, which he referred to as China’s presidential residence. He noted that Chinese photographs were less interesting and that he had only shown a fraction of his extensive collection. He then recounted an incident where he was invited to the U.S. by the American Ambassador, who expedited his visa and provided a plane ticket for the next day. He explained that this sudden invitation followed a month of surveillance by the CIA at his office and home. He stated that he was unexpectedly taken to the U.S. and that claims of him not having traveled to the U.S. were false, even though a high court ruling had stated otherwise. He asserted that he would reveal the truth later. -
Early Life in Gold Refining and Labor Insights
Huh Kyung-young then shifted to a discussion about gold, explaining the difference between “정금” (pure gold) and “순금” (fine gold), both 99.9% pure, and contrasting them with 18K (70% gold) and 14K (45% gold). He revealed that he had worked in a gold refinery, cutting large gold ingots and mixing them with brass to create different karats. He described the process of melting gold and brass, which produced black, bluish smoke containing impurities, causing him nosebleeds due to the inhalation of cyanide. He recounted how he worked there during high school, having been placed there by a pastor to earn money for his education. He described the factory floor, covered with tatami mats to collect gold dust, and the constant exposure to harmful fumes. He then recounted being “removed” from the factory by Baekgung (Heavenly Palace) after some gold went missing, leading to his dismissal. He saw this as a blessing, as it saved him from further health deterioration. He described the process of extruding gold into noodle-like strands for ring making and the meticulous work of the jewelers. He expressed admiration for the dedication of the workers who endured such harsh conditions, sacrificing their health for their families, and stated that this experience helped him understand the motivations behind labor unions. -
The Three Minds: Superficial, Inner, and True
Huh Kyung-young then began a philosophical discussion, introducing the concept of three minds: “心” (sim, superficial mind), “衷” (chung, inner mind), and “性” (seong, true mind). He explained that “심” refers to the superficial mind, and that when making a sincere request, one should use “충심” (chungsim, inner mind) rather than “진심” (jinsim, true heart) or “성심” (seongsim, sincere heart). He emphasized that “충심으로 간청합니다” (I earnestly request with my inner mind) is the correct expression, as the inner mind is always recognized above the superficial mind. He clarified that “충심” here does not refer to loyalty but to the inner mind. He then categorized people based on these minds: “속인” (sokin, common person) uses the superficial mind, “도인” (doin, enlightened person) uses the inner mind, and “신인” (sinin, God-man) uses the true mind. -
Human Mind, Divine Mind, and Universal Light
Huh Kyung-young explained that the “성” (seong, true mind) is the original nature, which is also present within everyone. He stated that everyone possesses the minds of a God-man, an enlightened person, and a common person. He noted that people view his photographs differently because their minds are different. He then introduced three concepts: “인심수도” (insim sudo, human mind cultivates the Way), “일신강충” (ilsin gangchung, one God descends into the inner mind), and “성통광명” (seongtong gwangmyeong, true mind communicates with universal light). He explained that “인심수도” means the human mind must undergo cultivation to reach the “충” (chung, inner mind), which is a mind received from heaven, a past-life mind, or a solidified mind representing our subconscious. “성통광명” means the “성” (seong, true mind) communicates with the light of heaven and earth, representing the mind of a saint. He emphasized that these three concepts illustrate the different levels of the human mind. -
The Three Great Principles of “Daehak” (Great Learning)
Huh Kyung-young then connected these concepts to “Daehak” (Great Learning), one of the Four Books of Confucianism, stating that mastering it is more profound than completing a hundred modern universities. He outlined the three great principles of “Daehak”: “명명지덕” (myeongmyeongjideok, illuminating illustrious virtue), “친민상생” (chinmin sangsaeng, loving the people and coexisting), and “지어지선” (jieojiseon, resting in the highest good). He explained that “명명지덕” corresponds to “성통광명,” meaning to live brightly. “친민상생” means to interact and be friendly with all people, avoiding animosity, which is fundamental to the study of “Daehak.” “지어지선” means to strive for the ultimate good, acting only when it aligns with the highest good. He stated that these three principles are the essence of “Daehak,” and that “지고지선” (jigojiseon, ultimate good) is “성통광명.” He explained that “친민상생” requires considering others with the inner mind, as superficial competition gives way to understanding that others might be family or past-life connections. “명명지덕” means always viewing the world brightly, which is the path of cultivation. He briefly explained these complex concepts, noting that a detailed explanation would be too difficult for the audience. -
The God-man’s Power and Unwavering Purpose
Huh Kyung-young stated that he showed his photographs to reveal his busy and impactful youth, emphasizing that he, as the God-man, could manifest money for presidential campaigns or build Sky Temple from nothing, even after being released from prison. He described the rapid realization of his intentions, such as transforming an entire village into Sky Temple, and noted that this speed often attracted “anti-fans” who acted as brakes, preventing “accidents.” He then referred to a news article about his legal challenges. -
Legal Challenges and Unlawful Evidence
Huh Kyung-young discussed a news article from Naewoe Economic TV, titled “Huh Kyung-young’s Side Raises Issues with Police Investigation’s Legitimacy.” He explained that his legal team criticized the Gyeonggi Northern Provincial Police Agency’s anti-corruption investigation team for its procedures and announced legal action. He stated that a person identified as “J,” who initiated the complaint, had illegally stolen a hard drive containing his lecture content from the Bonjwa Seoprihoe office and submitted it to the police. He asserted that the police used this evidence without proper review or his consent, which is a violation of legal procedure according to Supreme Court precedents. He explained that any investigation based on such illegally obtained evidence, including secondary evidence, would be deemed invalid. He accused the police of exaggerating certain expressions from his lectures to fabricate criminal charges and of actively using illegally acquired materials. He announced plans to file a special theft charge against “J” and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigation methods. He also raised suspicions that “J” had orchestrated a collective false complaint, possibly by misleading others into signing documents that were later used for sexual harassment charges without their knowledge. He concluded that the entire police investigation was unlawful and would need to be restarted, as all evidence obtained was invalid. -
Unblemished Record and Enduring Principles
Huh Kyung-young reiterated that he was not a common person but a God-man, emphasizing his unblemished record, unlike those who committed illegal acts. He highlighted his role as a top religious leader in Korea, having distributed countless Buddhist and Christian scriptures, and his 55 years of free meal service, which costs 2 billion Korean Won annually. He questioned why someone like him, who has consistently run for president, would engage in illegal activities, as such actions would disqualify him. He stated that he had pursued principles like “지고지선” (ultimate good), “친민상생” (loving the people and coexisting), and “명명지덕” (illuminating illustrious virtue) since childhood, never consuming alcohol, coffee, tobacco, soda, or even anything but cold water. He explained that he saved money to fund his presidential campaigns and policies, such as addressing the low birth rate, a concern he raised 30 years ago when others dismissed him as crazy. He warned that what could have been easily remedied then now requires immense effort, as rural areas are increasingly populated by foreigners, making it unsafe at night and leading to the concentration of Koreans in cities. He predicted that in a few decades, rural areas would be entirely occupied by foreigners, a trend he had tried to prevent 30 years ago. -
International Diplomatic Engagements
Huh Kyung-young’s lecture concluded with an acknowledgment of his “glorious chapter of memories” and his impressive encounters with influential figures. He then requested a video of his free meal service and photographs of Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio. He emphasized the importance of these photographs, noting that Marco Rubio is currently the Secretary of State. He presented a photograph with Cory Gardner and another with Marco Rubio, identifying Rubio as a mayor, possibly of New York. He then played a video of Marco Rubio speaking, where Rubio expressed concern about the nation’s future, the need to re-evaluate existing approaches, rebuild institutions, and redefine Republican ideology to prepare for a new government. Rubio also expressed excitement and confidence in a particular individual’s ability to win and be elected. Huh Kyung-young identified Marco Rubio as Donald Trump’s right-hand man, who became the Secretary of State, traveling the world on Trump’s behalf. -
High-Level Meetings with U.S. Senators
Huh Kyung-young explained that Donald Trump had arranged his meeting with Marco Rubio. He described the presence of tall security guards around Rubio and noted that Rubio was a top-ranking Republican presidential candidate, while Trump was initially 16th. He highlighted the significance of meeting such influential figures, stating that ordinary Korean National Assembly members could not easily meet U.S. senators or committee chairmen due to their busy schedules. He emphasized the need for appointments and proper introductions to secure such meetings. He then showed a photograph of himself looking relaxed, noting that he photographs well when the picture is taken correctly. He pointed out Rubio and Trump in the photograph, noting the ironic outcome where the last-place candidate became president and the first-place candidate became Secretary of State. -
Preventing War and Diplomatic Influence
Huh Kyung-young presented a photograph of himself having lunch with Cory Gardner, the Chairman of the Senate Asia-Pacific Subcommittee. He stated that Gardner’s refusal to sign a document prevented a war with North Korea. He showed a photograph of himself seated with Gardner and a North Korean representative, whose face was obscured, during a tense meeting. He explained that this meeting took place the day before a planned invasion of North Korea, with U.S. generals gathered in Hawaii. He stated that Gardner, who had direct ties to Bush and Trump, held the key to the war budget. He showed a close-up of Gardner’s and his own serious expressions, contrasting them with Gardner’s usually bright demeanor, emphasizing the gravity of the situation. He recalled advocating for “FVID” (Fully Verifiably Irreversibly Dismantle) for North Korea, while the U.S. side pushed for “CVPE” (Completely Verifiably Permanently Eliminate), meaning complete and permanent removal by the U.S. He stated that his more moderate approach of “dismantle” ultimately prevailed, preventing the war. He then showed a close-up of his own serious expression from that time. -
Concluding Remarks and Blessings
Huh Kyung-young then concluded his lecture, acknowledging the time constraints. He then introduced several singers who performed songs, including “Jin Sa Seong In Chul” (The Saint Appears in the Dragon and Snake Years), “Gonggyeonghamnida” (I Respect You), “Nangjungjichu” (An Awl in a Sack), and “Haneulgung Ganeun Gil” (The Road to Sky Temple). After each song, he bestowed “Level 3,000-mu” blessings upon the singers, the audience, and their ancestors, and “Level 10,000-mu” upon those who participated in the event. He expressed gratitude to the audience for their deep appreciation.
The God-man’s Journey: A Chronicle of Encounters and Teachings
-
Early Engagements with Religious and Political Figures
Huh Kyung-young recounts his extensive interactions with prominent figures across various religious and political spheres during his youth. He states that he met with major leaders in both the Buddhist and Christian communities in Korea. Among the Christian leaders, he mentions Reverend Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church, Reverend Kim Pung-il, and Reverend Ok Han-eum. He notes that Reverend Oh Jung-hyun, the current pastor of Sarang Church, originated from Naesudong Church, where Huh Kyung-young claims to have been raised as the son of a pastor. He asserts that his understanding of Christianity surpasses that of contemporary seminary professors. In the Buddhist community, he recalls distributing hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during his period of service. He claims that some of these distributed texts bear his name as a donor, and he offers a reward for anyone who can present such a copy. He specifies that the Buddhist scriptures he distributed were a light brown or dark blue color, and he estimates the value of the distributed Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles to be approximately 10 billion Korean Won each. He emphasizes that this distribution was part of his selfless service, not merely limited to providing free meals over 55 years. -
The Distribution of Sacred Texts and the Pursuit of Knowledge
Huh Kyung-young elaborates on his extensive distribution of religious texts, including Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles, during his younger years. He states that he gave away hundreds of thousands of copies of these texts, often without his name inscribed, under the principle of “무상보시 (Moo-sang-bo-si),” meaning selfless giving. He mentions that some copies, however, did bear his name as a donor. He recalls purchasing these Buddhist scriptures from Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures and Bibles from various sources. He notes that recipients often believed these texts were provided free of charge by churches or temples, unaware of his personal contribution. He asserts that this initiative significantly promoted both Buddhism and Christianity. He describes the Buddhist scriptures he distributed as being concise, similar in thickness to a Bible, and titled “불교 성전 (Bulgyo Seongjeon),” or Buddhist Holy Scripture, rather than “불교 경전 (Bulgyo Gyeongjeon),” or Buddhist Sutra. He contrasts his youthful dedication to distributing books with others who might have spent their money on alcohol or coffee, highlighting his unique commitment to public service. He further emphasizes that his service extended beyond religious texts to include the works of sages like Confucius and Mencius, aiming to address the high illiteracy rates of 80-90% among the populace at the time. -
Prominent Encounters in the Buddhist Community
Huh Kyung-young recounts his significant presence at major Buddhist events and his interactions with high-ranking Buddhist leaders. He describes a photograph taken with Reverend Cho Yong-gi, emphasizing that Reverend Cho rarely took such photos with individuals, especially not with ordinary congregants, highlighting the special nature of their relationship. He then shifts to his involvement in a large Buddhist lantern parade in Yeouido, where he stood alongside esteemed figures such as the Sri Lankan Sangharaja (종정, Jongjeong) Chandananda Thero, and Kang Seok-ju (강석주), the then-President of the Jogye Order (조계종 총무원장, Jogyejong Chongmuwonjang). He also mentions the presence of the Japanese Buddhist Sangharaja. He points out his central position in the photograph, surrounded by these prominent religious leaders and the President of the National Buddhist Lay Association, Professor Park Wan-il of Dongguk University. He asserts that his presence in such a central role, before an estimated one million participants in the lantern parade, underscores his significant contributions to the Korean Buddhist community. He clarifies that this event, the “제등대법회 (Jedungdaebeophoe),” or Great Lantern Dharma Assembly, was held on the occasion of Buddha’s Birthday and was organized by the Korean Buddhist Orders’ General Association. He also mentions serving as an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association. -
Diverse Activism and Unwavering Service
Huh Kyung-young highlights his extensive and varied activism during his younger years, demonstrating a commitment that extended beyond religious circles. He recalls being in his forties when he engaged in rural and fishing village volunteer work. He mentions a photograph taken in front of Myeongdong Cathedral during a protest against the military regime, advocating for economic justice and addressing wealth inequality. In this photo, he is seen holding a picket alongside figures like Auditor Lee Moon-ok and Assemblyman Kim Geun-tae, representing the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice (경실련, Gyeongsilnyeon). He asserts that his involvement in such diverse activities proves he is not merely a “God-man (신인, Shin-in)” who suddenly appeared, but one with a long history of service across various sectors. He emphasizes his impartiality, having supported both Buddhist and Christian communities, and states that his arrival signifies the end of sectarian divisions. He reiterates his offer of 1 million Korean Won for anyone who can bring him a copy of the Buddhist scriptures or Bibles he distributed with his name inscribed, noting that these texts are likely held by older generations. He characterizes his service as “법보시 (Beop-bo-si),” or the giving of Dharma, explaining that he distributed Bibles and Buddhist scriptures without any particular religious affiliation, simply encouraging people to read the words of the sages. -
Enduring Relationships with Religious Leaders
Huh Kyung-young emphasizes the deep and lasting relationships he cultivated with prominent religious leaders. He recalls Reverend Cho Yong-gi, a highly influential figure in the Christian community at the time, standing alongside him in a photograph, noting the identical floral arrangements they both received. He also mentions his interactions with various Buddhist leaders, including Kang Seok-ju (강석주), Oh Nok-won (오녹원), and Hwang Jin-gyeong (황진경), all former Presidents of the Jogye Order (총무원장, Chongmuwonjang). He highlights a photograph taken with Oh Nok-won and the singer Song Chun-hee (송춘희) on a building rooftop, indicating his connections within the entertainment industry as well. He asserts that these interactions demonstrate his extensive involvement in religious activities, not merely establishing the Sky Temple (하늘궁, Haneulgung) out of nowhere. He reiterates his offer of 1 million Korean Won for any Bible or Buddhist scripture bearing his name, emphasizing the financial capacity of his organization to fulfill this promise. He contrasts his simple attire with Reverend Cho Yong-gi’s impeccable fashion sense, noting that while his own clothes were not particularly stylish, he often wore colors similar to monastic robes, which he believes suited him well. -
Connections with Military and Entertainment Figures
Huh Kyung-young continues to illustrate his wide-ranging connections, extending to military and entertainment personalities. He reiterates his extensive religious activities, stating that he actively promoted various religions, including Buddhism and Christianity, rather than simply establishing the Sky Temple (하늘궁, Haneulgung) in isolation. He again mentions the reward for finding Bibles or Buddhist scriptures with his name. He then introduces a photograph with General Lee Jin-sam (이진삼), a four-star general in the Republic of Korea Army. He explains that he attended Dongguk University Graduate School, where many high-ranking police officers and military generals, including General Lee Jin-sam, were his classmates. He states that his time at Dongguk University’s Graduate School of Public Administration, coupled with his law degree from Korea National Open University, allowed him to forge many connections with police and military personnel during his youth. He notes that General Lee Jin-sam, a former Army General during the Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan administrations, later visited the Sky Temple. He then shifts to a photograph with actor Oh Ji-myeong (오지명), a prominent figure from the popular sitcom “Soonpoong Clinic.” -
The Discernment of Celebrities and the God-man’s Influence
Huh Kyung-young emphasizes the unique discernment of certain celebrities who recognized his true nature. He recounts actor Oh Ji-myeong’s unwavering support during his presidential campaign, noting that Oh Ji-myeong had not appeared in the media for decades after “Soonpoong Clinic” and consistently refused interviews or appearances, regardless of financial offers. He asserts that Oh Ji-myeong’s decision to campaign for him, despite the high likelihood of defeat, demonstrated his ability to perceive the “God-man (신인, Shin-in).” He praises Oh Ji-myeong’s sharp insight and states that he was the first person to be granted a “레벨 백만무 (Level Baekmanmu)” (a spiritual blessing) for his profound recognition. He extends this blessing to Oh Ji-myeong’s wife, Yoo Yeon-hee (유연희). He contrasts his own image, often misrepresented by the media, with his actual history of interacting with top figures in religious circles, not obscure individuals. He then introduces a photograph with the late entertainer Song Hae (송해), another celebrity who chose to stand by him despite public criticism, demonstrating his ability to discern the “God-man.” He notes that these entertainers, despite being well-informed through media, chose to support him, indicating their keen judgment. He also mentions that prominent pastors, including Reverend Kim Pung-il and Reverend Ok Han-eum, despite being older, treated him as an equal, seeking his counsel on church matters and personal issues, marveling at his profound knowledge. -
Spiritual Guidance and Presidential Connections
Huh Kyung-young describes his role as a spiritual guide for prominent religious leaders, who sought his counsel on matters beyond their own understanding. He recounts how pastors and Buddhist monks would consult him on personal and familial issues, such as relocating ancestral graves, because his advice provided clarity and resolution that they could not find elsewhere. He asserts that his insights stem from a spiritual realm, inaccessible through conventional knowledge. He then transitions to his political connections, presenting a photograph with five presidential candidates from a recent election: Lee Jae-myung (이재명), Yoon Suk-yeol (윤석열), Shim Sang-jung (심상정), and Ahn Cheol-soo (안철수). The photo shows him performing an incense offering at the National Cemetery, specifically at the grave of former President Kim Young-sam (김영삼). He highlights his central position among these candidates, all dressed in black ties, emphasizing the significance of his presence at such a commemorative event. He suggests that his ability to stand alongside these prominent political figures, especially during a time of national crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic, is a testament to his status as a “God-man (신인, Shin-in).” He draws attention to his forehead in the photograph, claiming it signifies a leader who will guide the future of the world, not just Korea. -
The Enduring Legacy of Service and Political Engagement
Huh Kyung-young reiterates his lifelong commitment to service, emphasizing his unique contributions. He challenges anyone to name another individual who, from a young age, earned their own money to distribute millions of Buddhist scriptures and Bibles without seeking personal gain. He contrasts this with those who prioritize personal wealth accumulation. He explains that his distribution of religious texts was not random but targeted at specific religious events, where he would give away thousands of copies to attendees. He also mentions distributing free umbrellas during rainy weather, highlighting his consistent acts of selfless service. He expresses frustration at being labeled a “thief” or “fraudster” by those who are ignorant of his extensive history, including law enforcement officials. He asserts that his photographs serve as undeniable proof of his past activities and connections. He recalls his close relationships with successive Presidents of the Jogye Order (총무원장, Chongmuwonjang), including Kang Seok-ju (강석주), Oh Nok-won (오녹원), and Hwang Jin-gyeong (황진경), as well as Lee Jin-gwan (이진관), a former President of Dongguk University who also served as a Jogye Order President. He states that these leaders consistently placed him in a central position at major events, further validating his influence. He also mentions his involvement in judging the Miss Korea pageant and his connections with Jang Ki-young (장기영), the former chairman of Hankook Ilbo and a deputy prime minister during the Park Chung-hee administration. -
Early Political Influence and the Path of a God-man
Huh Kyung-young delves further into his early political influence and the unique trajectory of his life. He recounts his connection with Jeon Gil-chang (전길창), Jang Ki-young’s adopted son and his schoolmate, who served as Jang Ki-young’s secretary at Hankook Ilbo. He describes how Jeon Gil-chang, despite being a high school student, was constantly by Jang Ki-young’s side, eventually becoming a president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate before his untimely death. He also mentions his encounters with actress Moon Hee (문희), who was Jang Ki-young’s daughter-in-law, at Jang Ki-young’s home in Seosomun. He then presents a photograph from a National Revolutionary Party (국가혁명당, Gukgahyeongmyeongdang) convention, showcasing hundreds of people presenting him with flower bouquets, a process that took two hours due to the sheer number of participants. He asserts that such a display of public support, with an estimated 100,000 people attending, is unprecedented in the history of political party conventions in Korea. He highlights that this event, held in 2019, is part of a long history of party founding and political engagement that began when he was in his forties, emphasizing that the Sky Temple (하늘궁, Haneulgung) was not built overnight but is the culmination of an “enormous history and tradition.” -
Unprecedented Political Gatherings and Early Presidential Connections
Huh Kyung-young continues to highlight the extraordinary nature of his political gatherings and his early connections with future presidents. He reiterates that the National Revolutionary Party (국가혁명당, Gukgahyeongmyeongdang) convention, where he received flower bouquets from 400 people, was an unprecedented event in Korean political history. He states that no other party convention has ever drawn such a massive crowd, with an estimated 100,000 people both inside and outside the venue. He emphasizes that this event, held in 2019, is part of a long and significant history of political activity that he initiated decades ago. He then presents a photograph showing him seated next to former President Kim Dae-jung (김대중) at a New Democratic Party (신민당, Shinmindang) convention in 1989, years before Kim Dae-jung became president. He explains that he was invited to sit on the main platform alongside prominent politicians, including the convention chairman, demonstrating the respect and admiration he commanded even at a young age. He notes that he and Kim Dae-jung were able to engage in meaningful conversations, and that many future National Assembly members were seated behind them. He asserts that his early interactions with such high-ranking figures, including those who would later become president, were extensive, though he has not publicly revealed all of them. He reiterates that his distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, a fact previously unknown to many, will soon come to light as people present these old texts. -
The God-man’s Trials and the Essence of Gold
Huh Kyung-young reflects on the trials and tribulations he has faced, drawing parallels to the experiences of national leaders. He recounts a moment during a speech where the moderator introduced him as the “only hope” for the nation, destined to save humanity. He states that national leaders, like former President Kim Dae-jung who endured imprisonment multiple times, must experience hardship to become humble. He asserts that even as a “God-man (신인, Shin-in)” from the “백궁 (Baekgung)” (Heavenly Palace), he chose to experience human suffering to understand why people commit sins. He describes his life as one of continuous service and giving, never taking. He predicts that in the coming week, people will bring forth the Bibles and Buddhist scriptures he distributed, seeking the 1 million Korean Won reward, and that these texts will reveal the true age of his service. He humorously notes that if someone brings ten such books, they would receive 10 million Korean Won. He then transitions to a discussion about gold, explaining the difference between “정금 (Jeonggeum)” (pure gold) and “순금 (Sungeum)” (fine gold), both 99.9% pure, and lower karats like 18K (70% gold) and 14K (45% gold). He reveals that he once worked in a gold factory, mixing gold with other metals like brass to create different karats. -
The Gold Factory Experience and the Nature of Suffering
Huh Kyung-young recounts his arduous experience working in a gold factory during his high school years, a period he describes as physically demanding and eye-opening. He explains that he was employed by a pastor to earn money for his education. He describes the process of cutting large gold ingots with sharp knives and hammers, then weighing them and mixing them with precise amounts of brass to create 18K or 14K gold. He vividly recalls the process of melting these alloys, which released a “시커먼 연기 (sikeomeon yeongi)” (black smoke) of impurities, including cyanide, causing him to suffer frequent nosebleeds. He notes the lack of windows in the factory to prevent gold dust from escaping and the use of tatami mats on the floor to collect any fallen gold particles. He explains that the “백궁 (Baekgung)” (Heavenly Palace) intervened to remove him from this hazardous environment when gold went missing, leading to his dismissal. He humorously states that this incident, though initially a setback, ultimately saved him from potential lung cancer. He describes the subsequent process of extruding the molten gold into noodle-like strands, which were then cut and shaped into rings by other artisans. He emphasizes that these gold rings were primarily for export. -
The Dignity of Labor and the Three Minds
Huh Kyung-young expresses profound respect for the laborers he observed in the gold factory, highlighting their dedication and the harsh conditions they endured. He notes that these workers, despite the constant exposure to toxic fumes and the physically demanding nature of their jobs, performed their tasks diligently without complaint. He states that witnessing their struggles instilled in him a deep admiration for their commitment to earning a living and providing for their families, even at the cost of their own health. He suggests that understanding such experiences is crucial before criticizing labor unions, as workers’ demands for better wages often stem from their sacrifices in challenging environments. He then transitions to a philosophical teaching about the “세 가지 마음 (se gaji maeum)” (three minds): “겉마음 (geotmaeum)” (outer mind), “속마음 (songmaeum)” (inner mind), and “본마음 (bonmaeum)” (true mind). He explains that “겉마음 (geotmaeum)” is the superficial mind of a “속인 (sogin)” (common person), while “속마음 (songmaeum)” is the deeper mind of a “도인 (doin)” (person of the Tao). He emphasizes that when making a sincere request, one should use “衷心으로 (chungsim-euro)” (from the inner mind), not “진심으로 (jinsim-euro)” (from the true heart) or “성심으로 (seongsim-euro)” (from the sincere heart), as “충심 (chungsim)” refers to the “속마음 (songmaeum)” (inner mind). -
The Three Minds and the Great Learning
Huh Kyung-young continues his discourse on the “세 가지 마음 (se gaji maeum)” (three minds), connecting them to the principles of “대학 (Daehak)” (The Great Learning). He explains that the “본마음 (bonmaeum)” (true mind) is the mind of a “신인 (shin-in)” (God-man), which he asserts resides within everyone. He states that just as people view his photographs differently based on their individual perspectives, so too do their “마음 (maeum)” (minds) vary. He introduces the concepts of “인심수도 (insim sudo)” (human mind cultivates the Way), “일신강충 (ilsin gangchung)” (one God descends to the inner mind), and “성통광명 (seongtong gwangmyeong)” (true nature penetrates enlightenment). He explains that “인심수도 (insim sudo)” refers to the human mind’s need for cultivation to reach the “속마음 (songmaeum)” (inner mind), which he describes as a “전생 마음 (jeonsaeng maeum)” (past life mind) or subconscious. “성통광명 (seongtong gwangmyeong)” refers to the “본마음 (bonmaeum)” (true mind) that connects with the “천지광명 (cheonji gwangmyeong)” (light of heaven and earth). He then links these three minds to the “대학의 3대강령 (Daehak-ui Samdaegangnyeong)” (Three Cardinal Principles of The Great Learning): “명명지덕 (myeongmyeongjideok)” (illustrating illustrious virtue), “친민상생 (chinmin sangsaeng)” (loving the people and mutual prosperity), and “지어지선 (jieo jiseon)” (resting in the highest good). He explains that “명명지덕 (myeongmyeongjideok)” corresponds to “성통광명 (seongtong gwangmyeong),” “친민상생 (chinmin sangsaeng)” to “속마음 (songmaeum),” and “지어지선 (jieo jiseon)” to the pursuit of ultimate goodness. -
The God-man’s Power and the Fight Against Injustice
Huh Kyung-young concludes his lecture by emphasizing his extraordinary power and his ongoing battle against injustice. He reiterates that his photographs serve as undeniable proof of his extensive activities and connections, challenging those who dismiss him as a fraud. He asserts that his ability to manifest resources, such as the 10 billion Korean Won needed for a presidential campaign or the rapid construction of the Sky Temple (하늘궁, Haneulgung) from nothing, demonstrates that “하늘이 움직인다 (haneuri umjiginda)” (Heaven moves) when he sets his mind to something. He contrasts this with his past life of selflessly distributing Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. He then addresses recent legal challenges, citing a news report from Naewoe Economy TV about his legal team’s strong criticism of the police investigation. He explains that the investigation was based on a hard drive containing his lecture videos, which was allegedly stolen and illegally submitted to the police by an individual identified as “J.” He asserts that the police’s use of this illegally obtained evidence, without his consent, violates legal precedents and renders any subsequent investigation or evidence invalid. He states that his legal team plans to file a lawsuit against “J” for grand larceny and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigative procedures. He also suggests that “J” may have orchestrated a collective false accusation, misleading others into filing complaints under the guise of financial compensation. -
The God-man’s Unwavering Principles and Vision for Korea
Huh Kyung-young concludes by reaffirming his unwavering principles and his long-standing vision for Korea, contrasting his integrity with the alleged illegal actions of his accusers. He emphasizes that the police investigation, based on illegally obtained evidence, is fundamentally flawed and that all findings derived from it are invalid, including accusations of embezzlement, fraud, and sexual assault. He states that his legal team has obtained evidence showing that “J” explicitly instructed others not to reveal the source of the hard drive, indicating a clear awareness of the illegality of their actions. He asserts that he, as a “God-man (신인, Shin-in)” who has consistently upheld principles like “명명지덕 (myeongmyeongjideok)” (illustrating illustrious virtue), “친민상생 (chinmin sangsaeng)” (loving the people and mutual prosperity), and “지어지선 (jieo jiseon)” (resting in the highest good) since childhood, would never engage in illegal activities. He highlights his abstemious lifestyle, never consuming alcohol, coffee, tobacco, or even soda, and living solely on water, to save money for his presidential campaigns and policies aimed at national salvation. He recalls his early warnings about the declining birthrate 30 years ago, which were dismissed as madness, but now manifest as a severe national crisis. He paints a stark picture of rural areas increasingly populated by foreign workers, with Korean citizens retreating to cities, predicting a future where Korean faces will be rare in the countryside. He asserts that he was the one who stepped forward three decades ago to prevent this future.
The God-man’s Journey: A Chronicle of Encounters and Teachings
-
Early Life and Extensive Philanthropic Endeavors
Huh Kyung-young recounts his extensive philanthropic activities from a young age, emphasizing his deep involvement in distributing religious texts. He states that he disseminated hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles, often without charge. He asserts that if anyone possesses a Buddhist scripture or Christian Bible bearing his name as a donor, he would compensate them handsomely for its return. He explains that these texts, which he personally funded, were distributed during his youth, long before his public recognition. He estimates the value of these donated scriptures to be approximately 10 billion Korean Won each for Buddhist and Christian texts, totaling 20 billion Korean Won. This act of Dharma-dana (법보시), the giving of truth or teachings, was a significant part of his 55 years of continuous service, which also included providing free meals. He clarifies that these distributions were not random but targeted at religious gatherings and events, ensuring the texts reached those who would appreciate them. He contrasts his selfless giving with the pursuit of personal wealth, highlighting his unique path of service. He also mentions that during his youth, the illiteracy rate was high, around 80-90%, and these simplified versions of scriptures, comparable in size to a Bible, were distributed to help people understand religious teachings. These Buddhist scriptures, titled “Buddhist Sacred Texts (불교 성전)” and published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures, were distinct from the voluminous Tripitaka Koreana. He emphasizes that his early life was dedicated to such acts of service, distinguishing him from those who merely seek personal gain. -
Unprecedented Engagements with Religious and Political Leaders
Huh Kyung-young presents a series of photographs documenting his interactions with prominent figures across religious and political spheres, asserting that these encounters underscore his unique standing and influence. He recalls meeting with major leaders in Korean Buddhism and Christianity, including Reverend Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church, and various other notable pastors such as Kim Pung-il and Ok Han-eum. He highlights a decades-old photograph with Reverend Cho, noting their identical floral arrangements, signifying a position of mutual respect. He also mentions his connection to Naesudong Church, where he claims to have been raised as a pastor’s son, gaining a profound understanding of Christianity that surpasses even that of current theology professors.
In the Buddhist community, he displays a photograph from a large Buddhist lantern parade in Yeouido, where he stood alongside the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the Jogye Order’s President Kang Seok-ju, and the President of the National Buddhist Laymen’s Association, Professor Park Wan-il of Dongguk University. He emphasizes his central position in the photograph, asserting that it reflects his significant contributions to Korean Buddhism. He also shares images with former Jogye Order Presidents Oh Nok-won and Hwang Jin-gyeong, and former Dongguk University President Lee Jin-gwan, indicating his long-standing relationships with these influential figures.
Beyond religious leaders, Huh Kyung-young showcases photographs with former President Kim Dae-jung, taken years before his presidency, and with other political figures at significant national events, including a memorial service for former President Kim Young-sam, where he was seen alongside five other presidential candidates. He also presents images with former President Lee Myung-bak, and members of former President Park Chung-hee’s family, including Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man, as well as Park Jun-hong, Park Chung-hee’s nephew. He recounts an event where he sat at the main table with Park Geun-hye, who was then the chairwoman of the Korea Racing Authority, and describes her unusually bright smile and extended hand in greeting, suggesting a special connection. He also shares a photograph with former U.S. Ambassador to Korea Han Seung-soo and an IOC President at New York Airport, further illustrating his international network. These photographs, he claims, serve as irrefutable evidence of his extensive and influential past, challenging any skepticism about his identity or activities.
- The Essence of Gold and the Purity of the Soul
Huh Kyung-young delves into the metallurgy of gold, drawing a profound analogy between the refining process of precious metals and the purification of the human soul. He explains the distinctions between Jeonggeum (정금), or pure gold, and Sunggeum (순금), both signifying 99.9% pure gold, which is equivalent to 24K. He then contrasts this with 18K gold, which contains about 70% gold, and 14K gold, with approximately 45% gold, the remainder being alloys like brass.
He recounts his personal experience working in a gold factory during his high school years, where he learned the intricate process of creating these alloys. He describes how large gold ingots were precisely cut and mixed with specific proportions of brass to achieve the desired karat. The melting process, he explains, involved intense heat, during which dark, bluish smoke—impurities—would rise. He vividly recalls the constant nosebleeds he suffered due to inhaling these toxic fumes, which contained cyanide. The factory floor was covered with tatami mats to collect any gold dust, which would later be incinerated to recover the precious metal.
He narrates a pivotal moment when he was “expelled” from the factory due to a missing gold ring, an incident he now views as divine intervention. He believes that if he had continued working there, he would have succumbed to lung cancer from the constant exposure to cyanide. This experience, though harsh, taught him the value of purity and the dangers of impurities, both in metal and in life. He describes how the molten gold, once all impurities were removed, would become as clear as glass. He emphasizes that any remaining impurities would cause the finished gold rings to break, highlighting the necessity of thorough purification. This arduous work, performed by dedicated laborers in harsh conditions, instilled in him a deep respect for their perseverance and sacrifice, drawing a parallel to the struggles of the working class and the importance of understanding their plight.
- The Three Minds: Heart, Soul, and Nature
Huh Kyung-young introduces a philosophical framework centered on three distinct aspects of the human mind: Geotmaeum (겉마음), the superficial or outer mind; Sokmaeum (속마음), the inner or true heart; and Bonmaeum (본마음), the fundamental nature or original mind. He illustrates this concept by explaining the proper way to express a heartfelt request. He asserts that merely saying “I sincerely request (진심으로 간청합니다)” is incorrect because Jinsim (진심), sincerity, originates from the outer mind. Instead, one should use Chungsim (충심), meaning “from the true heart (衷心으로 간청합니다),” which signifies a request stemming from the inner mind. He clarifies that this Chung (衷) character, representing the inner mind, is distinct from the Chung (忠) character used for loyalty, which is typically directed towards a monarch.
He further categorizes individuals based on these mental states: Sogin (속인), ordinary people, operate primarily from the outer mind; Doin (도인), spiritual practitioners, utilize the inner mind; and Shinin (신인), God-men, embody the fundamental nature. He states that everyone possesses all three aspects within them, leading to diverse interpretations of his own photographs, as each person views them through their unique mental lens.
He connects these concepts to ancient Korean philosophical texts, specifically the Cheonbugyeong (천부경), which speaks of Insimsudo (인심수도), the human mind cultivating the Way; Ilshingangchung (일신강충), the descent of the one God-man’s inner mind; and Seongtonggwangmyeong (성통광명), the nature communicating with cosmic light. He explains that the human mind requires cultivation to reach the inner mind, which is a pre-existent, karmic mind from past lives, akin to the subconscious. The fundamental nature, however, is connected to the cosmic light, representing the mind of a God-man.
He then links these three minds to the Daehak (대학), or Great Learning, a foundational text in Confucianism. The Great Learning’s three cardinal principles are Myeongmyeongjideok (명명지덕), illuminating illustrious virtue; Chinminsangsaeng (친민상생), loving the people and fostering mutual growth; and Jieojiseon (지어지선), resting in the highest good. He equates Seongtonggwangmyeong with Myeongmyeongjideok, emphasizing the importance of seeing everything clearly and brightly. Chinminsangsaeng corresponds to the inner mind, advocating for genuine connection and mutual benefit, recognizing that all beings are interconnected. Finally, Jieojiseon aligns with the fundamental nature, striving for the ultimate good in all actions. He concludes that understanding these three minds provides a comprehensive framework for comprehending human existence and spiritual development.

Huh Kyung-young asserts that his existence as a God-man (신인) transcends ordinary human capabilities, enabling him to manifest his will and influence cosmic events. He claims that his past, filled with extensive service and unique experiences, is merely a prelude to his current role. He states that he can effortlessly generate vast sums of money for presidential campaigns or establish the Sky Temple (하늘궁) from nothing, simply by setting his intention. He recounts how he arrived at his current location with empty hands after being released from prison, yet quickly transformed the entire area into the Sky Temple, demonstrating the rapid manifestation of his desires.
He describes a critical moment where his intervention prevented a war with North Korea. He recounts a meeting with U.S. Senator Cory Gardner, then Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy, and a North Korean representative. He explains that a U.S. invasion of North Korea was imminent, with military generals gathered in Hawaii. However, Senator Gardner’s refusal to sign off on the war budget, influenced by Huh Kyung-young’s arguments, averted the conflict. He contrasts the U.S. proposal of “Completely, Verifiably, Permanently Eliminate (CVPE)” North Korea’s nuclear program with his own advocacy for “Fully, Verifiably, Irreversibly Dismantle (FVID),” emphasizing a path of peaceful dismantlement over aggressive elimination. He highlights the gravity of the situation, noting the serious expressions on everyone’s faces, including his own, during the tense discussions.
He also mentions his connection with Marco Rubio, whom he describes as Donald Trump’s right-hand man and the current Secretary of State. He states that Trump himself introduced him to Rubio, underscoring his direct access to high-level U.S. political figures. He emphasizes that such meetings are not easily arranged for ordinary Korean politicians, as these U.S. senators have demanding schedules and require specific invitations. He concludes that these extraordinary events are not coincidental but are orchestrated by his divine will, demonstrating his profound influence on global affairs and his commitment to peace and the well-being of humanity.
The God-man’s Journey: A Legacy of Service and Profound Wisdom
- A Life Dedicated to Spiritual and Political Engagement
I have encountered all the prominent figures in Korea’s Buddhist and Christian communities. I possess extensive relationships with them. There are numerous photographs documenting my interactions with these renowned individuals, but due to time constraints, I can only present a few. For instance, there is a photograph of me with Reverend Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church. This image, taken decades ago, signifies a position of considerable influence, as Reverend Cho rarely allowed such intimate photographs with anyone other than his closest associates.
I also have a photograph with President Kim Dae-jung. During my youth, I maintained very close ties with major religious leaders such as Reverend Cho Yong-gi, Reverend Kim Pung-il, and Reverend Ok Han-heum. Reverend Oh Jung-hyun, the current pastor of Sarang Church, originated from Naesudong Church, which I also attended. He is a successor to many pastors from that church, having been mentored by Reverend Ok Han-heum. My theological understanding, cultivated during my time there, surpasses that of many seminary professors today.
I distributed hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during my period of service. I am currently seeking any copies of these scriptures or Bibles that bear my name as a donor, and I am prepared to offer compensation for them. Some were distributed anonymously as acts of selfless giving, while others included my name. The sheer volume of Buddhist scriptures purchased from Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures and Christian Bibles distributed was immense. Recipients often believed these were provided free of charge by churches or temples, unaware of my personal contribution. I extensively promoted both Buddhism and Christianity in my youth.
The Buddhist scriptures I distributed, valued at approximately 10 billion Korean won, were compact, similar in thickness to a Bible, and titled “Buddhist Sacred Texts” rather than “Buddhist Scriptures.” These were published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures. I began this distribution during my younger years, utilizing funds that others might have spent on alcohol or coffee.
I was also an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association. I participated in events such as the Lantern Parade Grand Buddhist Service, held in Yeouido Plaza to commemorate Buddha’s Birthday, organized by the Korean Buddhist Denominational Council. I stood at the center of these events alongside prominent figures like the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the President of the Jogye Order, and the Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism. This central position underscores my significant contributions to the Korean Buddhist community.
My involvement extended beyond religious circles. I participated in demonstrations during the military regime, advocating for economic justice and addressing wealth disparity. Photographs show me holding a picket sign alongside figures like Auditor Lee Moon-ok and Assemblyman Kim Geun-tae in front of Myeongdong Cathedral. This demonstrates my active engagement in social and political movements from a young age.
I am not merely a political aspirant; I am a God-man who has supported both the Buddhist and Christian communities. My presence transcends religious divisions, as evidenced by the diverse religious leaders who attend my gatherings. The era of sectarianism concludes with the advent of the God-man. I anticipate that those who possess the scriptures I distributed will soon come forward, and I will offer one million Korean won for each copy bearing my name.
My extensive distribution of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures was an act of Dharma giving (법보시), not an endorsement of any particular religion. I simply encouraged people to read the words of the sages. This impartiality earned me a welcome from both Buddhist and Christian leaders, including Reverend Cho Yong-gi, a highly influential figure in the Christian community at the time.
I have interacted with successive Presidents of the Jogye Order, including Kang Seok-ju, Oh Nok-won, and Hwang Jin-gyeong, all of whom were close to me. I also met with Lee Jin-gwan, who served as President of Dongguk University and later as President of the Jogye Order, as well as other prominent figures like Ven. Beopjang. My central placement in major religious events, as evidenced by photographs, serves as irrefutable proof of my standing.
- Interactions with Political Leaders and Public Figures
My past includes interactions with numerous political figures. I attended Dongguk University Graduate School, where many high-ranking police officers and military generals were my contemporaries. This allowed me to forge connections with individuals like General Lee Jin-sam, a four-star general who served during the administrations of Presidents Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan.
During my presidential campaigns, I received support from notable public figures such as Oh Ji-myung, a renowned actor. Despite his long-standing withdrawal from public life and media interviews after “Soonpoong Clinic,” he actively campaigned for me, recognizing my unique qualities. His support, given even when my electoral prospects were uncertain, demonstrates his profound discernment.
Similarly, the late entertainer Song Hae, a highly respected figure, also recognized my true nature and chose to associate with me, despite potential public criticism. Such individuals, who possess keen insight, are drawn to me.
Prominent religious leaders, including Reverend Kim Pung-il and Reverend Ok Han-heum, despite being significantly older, treated me as an equal, seeking my counsel on matters ranging from church direction to personal issues. My guidance, often rooted in spiritual insight, provided clarity that their own knowledge could not.
I possess the ability to perceive spiritual realities, which allows me to offer precise guidance on matters such as ancestral rites and family affairs, often sought by religious leaders who lack such discernment.
Photographs also document my participation in significant national events, such as the memorial service for President Kim Young-sam at the National Cemetery. I stood alongside other presidential candidates, including Lee Jae-myung, Yoon Suk-yeol, Shim Sang-jung, and Ahn Cheol-soo, performing the incense offering. This image, taken during the COVID-19 pandemic, captures a unique moment in history.
My lifelong dedication to service, including the distribution of hundreds of thousands of scriptures, stands in stark contrast to the accusations of those who misunderstand my true nature. I have consistently acted with integrity, even when faced with baseless allegations.
My connections extend to former presidents. I sat beside Kim Dae-jung at a New Korea Democratic Party convention, years before his presidency. Our ability to engage in meaningful dialogue at that time underscores the depth of our relationship. I have maintained relationships with leaders across the political spectrum, which is why I have never criticized any political party.
I have also interacted with Presidents Choi Kyu-hah, Chun Doo-hwan, and Roh Tae-woo, often occupying prominent positions at official events. For instance, I was seated behind President Choi Kyu-hah at a memorial service, a position typically reserved for high-ranking officials and not accessible to just anyone.
My interactions with the Park family are also well-documented. I have photographs with Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man, often at events related to President Park Chung-hee. I also have a photograph with Han Seung-soo, President Park Chung-hee’s son-in-law and former Ambassador to the U.S., taken at New York Airport alongside an IOC President.
A particularly striking photograph shows me with Park Geun-hye at a charity event in 2006. She is seen smiling broadly, extending her hand to me, and then sitting beside me at the main table. This level of warmth and familiarity from her, especially during a period when she was highly cautious due to a recent attack, is unprecedented. My presence at such a sensitive time, and her evident comfort with me, speaks volumes.
My international engagements include a reception in Washington D.C. in 2001, hosted by the Maryland Democratic Party, where I was seated at the front. This demonstrates the international recognition I have received, despite attempts to discredit my experiences, such as claims that my meeting with President Trump was fabricated.
I have photographs with President Trump, taken at a celebratory party at Union Station, where I was invited by a co-chair of the Republican Party’s election committee. This event, attended by only 300 people worldwide, was a highly exclusive gathering.
I also attended a separate, less exclusive party at a hotel, where I met various Korean assembly members and other dignitaries. This was a different venue from the main presidential inauguration party, which had a much higher ceiling and a more formal atmosphere.
My travels have also taken me to China, where I have photographs taken in front of Tiananmen Square and the Great Hall of the People.
My international engagements, including a swift visa approval and flight arrangements to meet President Bush, orchestrated by the U.S. Ambassador after a month-long investigation by the CIA, further underscore the extraordinary nature of my life. Despite these verifiable events, some have falsely claimed I never traveled to the U.S.
- The Alchemy of Gold and the Wisdom of Labor
In my youth, I worked in a gold refinery, where I learned the process of creating 18K and 14K gold by mixing pure gold (99.9% purity) with other metals. This involved melting gold with cyanide, which released toxic fumes, causing me frequent nosebleeds. The factory floor was covered with tatami mats to collect gold dust, which was later recovered by burning the mats.
My time in the gold factory was cut short when a quantity of gold went missing, and I was unjustly suspected and dismissed. This unforeseen event, however, saved me from the hazardous working conditions that could have led to lung cancer. I witnessed the arduous labor of the gold artisans, who toiled in harsh environments to create jewelry for export. Their dedication, despite the poor conditions, instilled in me a profound respect for laborers.
This experience taught me to understand the struggles of workers and the reasons behind their demands for better conditions. It reinforced my belief that empathy and support for laborers are essential.
- The Threefold Nature of the Mind and the Great Learning
I often speak about the three layers of the mind: the superficial mind (心), the inner mind (衷), and the true mind (性).
When making a heartfelt plea, one should appeal from the inner mind (衷心), not merely the superficial mind (心). This profound sincerity resonates more deeply. The term “衷心” signifies a sincere heart, distinct from mere loyalty.
The superficial mind (心) is associated with ordinary people, while the inner mind (衷) is characteristic of spiritual practitioners. The true mind (性) belongs to the God-man. However, all three aspects reside within each individual. This explains why different people perceive my photographs differently, as their perspectives are shaped by their dominant mental state.
The human mind (人心) strives for spiritual cultivation (修道). The inner mind (衷) is a divine gift, a reflection of our past lives and subconscious. The true mind (性) connects with the universal light (光明) of heaven and earth. These three aspects—the mind of cultivation, the divinely bestowed inner mind, and the mind connected to universal light—represent the diverse states of human consciousness.
The Great Learning (大學), a foundational text in classical Chinese philosophy, outlines three core principles:
Illuminating Bright Virtue (明明之德): This principle, akin to the true mind’s connection to universal light, emphasizes living with clarity and moral insight.
Loving the People and Coexisting (親民相生): This principle, reflecting the inner mind, advocates for harmonious relationships with all people, fostering mutual benefit rather than conflict.
Abiding in the Highest Good (止於至善): This principle, also aligned with the true mind, directs one towards the pursuit of ultimate goodness in all actions.
These three principles of the Great Learning correspond to the three aspects of the mind. The pursuit of the highest good aligns with the true mind’s connection to universal light. Loving the people and coexisting stems from the inner mind, recognizing our interconnectedness. Illuminating bright virtue involves perceiving the world with clarity and wisdom.
My life, from a young age, has been a testament to these principles. I have consistently acted with integrity, pursuing the highest good, fostering harmonious relationships, and striving for clarity. I have never consumed alcohol, coffee, tobacco, or even soda, subsisting solely on water. My purpose has always been to serve the nation and its people, addressing critical issues like the declining birthrate, a concern I raised three decades ago when it was dismissed as madness.
- Confronting Adversity and Upholding Justice
My journey has been marked by extraordinary events. When I decide to run for president, even without funds, resources materialize. When I resolve to establish the Sky Temple, it manifests rapidly. This swift progress often attracts opposition, acting as a “brake” to prevent “accidents.”
Recently, my legal team challenged the legitimacy of a police investigation, arguing that it relied on illegally obtained evidence. An individual, referred to as “J,” stole a hard drive containing my lecture videos from my office and submitted it to the police without my consent. According to Supreme Court precedents, evidence obtained without the owner’s consent, especially electronic information, violates warrant principles and due process, rendering both the evidence and any subsequent findings inadmissible.
My legal team asserts that the police’s failure to notify me of the hard drive’s seizure and their active use of the illegally obtained material constitute clear violations of law. Furthermore, they contend that the police exaggerated certain expressions from my lectures to fabricate criminal charges. We plan to file a lawsuit against “J” for grand larceny and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigative practices.
This incident highlights a pattern of false accusations and defamation orchestrated by “J” and others. The police investigation’s legitimacy is now under scrutiny, and my legal team’s strong response is expected to have significant repercussions.
I am not an ordinary person; I am a God-man. My life has been dedicated to service, including the distribution of countless scriptures and 55 years of free meal service, an endeavor that costs 2 billion Korean won annually. I have consistently run for president, adhering to legal and ethical standards. My actions are guided by the principles of illuminating bright virtue, loving the people and coexisting, and abiding in the highest good, which I have embodied since childhood.
- International Diplomacy and the Prevention of War
During my time in the U.S., I met with prominent political figures, including Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio. Marco Rubio, now the Secretary of State, is a key figure in the Trump administration. President Trump himself arranged for me to meet Rubio, who was a leading Republican presidential candidate.
I also had a significant lunch meeting with Cory Gardner, then Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy. During this meeting, Gardner’s refusal to sign a document prevented a potential war with North Korea. I advocated for “Fully Verifiably Irreversibly Dismantle” (FVID) of North Korea’s nuclear program, while others pushed for “Completely Verifiably Permanently Eliminate” (CVPE), which implied military action. My intervention helped avert a conflict.

Introduction to the 1483rd Saturday Lecture
On a Saturday afternoon imbued with the spirit of spring, attendees gathered to partake in a lecture of unparalleled global significance. The speaker extended wishes for abundant blessings from the Divine Being to all present, both in person and those viewing internationally. The Divine Being, having mastered all worldly disciplines and various religions, possesses a ten-dimensional spiritual insight that allows for a clear foresight into the future. It is anticipated that in the near future, people from across the globe, recognizing the Divine Being, will gather in great numbers. The audience was invited to offer a fervent round of applause for the great Divine Being, Huh Kyung young, who endeavors to save humanity and promote coexistence and co-prosperity for all.
Acknowledgments and Floral Tributes
The speaker expressed gratitude to the audience. Four individuals presented floral tributes. First, the angel couple Lee Yoon-joo and Yoo Jae-hoon, along with mother Hong Sung-soon and sister Lee Min-jung, offered an orchid pot in gratitude for the healing of their two spiritual essences. The presence of all four family members was noted as a beautiful sight, prompting applause from the audience. The speaker extended wishes for their longevity and well-being. Following this, Archangel Son Young-bum presented an orchid pot to the Divine Being as a token of appreciation, noting its purple hue. Subsequently, Angel Kim Jung-kyu offered a white orchid pot, symbolizing respect for the Divine Being, which was admired for its beauty. Finally, Angel Yoon Soon-hee presented a yellow orchid, signifying deep gratitude for her encounter with the Divine Being.
The Divine Being’s Unwavering Presence and Extensive Outreach
The speaker then transitioned to the profound words of the Divine Being. Unlike itinerant vendors who appear sporadically, the Divine Being, possessing a celestial body, is always present. There are no business trips or overseas journeys; the Divine Being is perpetually available, awaiting those who seek. This constant presence is contrasted with the transient nature of human relationships, where spouses are not always home. The Divine Being’s unwavering availability is emphasized, noting daily lectures in both the morning and afternoon, which are widely attended and appreciated. The speaker highlighted that many prominent figures have viewed these lectures.
A Retrospective Through Photographs: Encounters with Religious and Political Leaders
The lecture then shifted to a visual presentation of Huh Kyung young’s past, showcasing photographs that illustrate his extensive engagement with various influential figures. He has met with all the great Buddhist monks in Korea and possesses a deep understanding of the Buddhist community. Similarly, he is acquainted with prominent figures in Christianity. While numerous photographs exist with these renowned individuals, only a select few could be displayed due to time constraints.
One notable photograph features Reverend Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church. The speaker pointed out the identical floral arrangements in the photograph, indicating a significant occasion from several decades ago. Another image, depicting Reverend Cho in his youth, was estimated to be approximately 30 years old. The speaker also mentioned a photograph with former President Kim Dae-jung, highlighting his close relationships with religious leaders during his younger years, including Reverend Kim Pung-il and Reverend Ok Han-heum. Reverend Oh Jung-hyun of Sarang Church, a successor to many pastors from Naesudong Church where Huh Kyung young attended, was also mentioned, noting his upbringing by Reverend Ok Han-heum and the connection to Naesudong Church. Huh Kyung young asserted that his understanding of Christianity surpasses that of current seminary professors.
Philanthropic Endeavors: Distribution of Scriptures
Huh Kyung young recounted his extensive philanthropic work, distributing hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during his period of service. He offered a reward of one million won to anyone who could present a copy of these scriptures or Bibles bearing his name as a donor, acknowledging the difficulty of finding them now. He explained that some were given anonymously as acts of selfless charity, while others bore his inscription. These scriptures were purchased from Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures and various Christian organizations. Recipients often believed these were freely provided by churches or temples, unaware of Huh Kyung young’s personal financial contribution. This extensive distribution, undertaken in his youth, significantly promoted both Buddhism and Christianity.
He described the physical characteristics of the scriptures: Christian Bibles varied in color, while Buddhist scriptures were typically light brown and navy blue. The estimated value of the Buddhist scriptures distributed by Huh Kyung young was approximately 10 billion won, with Christian Bibles also totaling around 10 billion won. This immense sum was personally funded and distributed without charge, demonstrating that his service extended beyond free meal programs over 55 years to include the dissemination of sacred texts from various sages, including the Analects of Confucius and Mencius. This initiative addressed the high illiteracy rate in Korea, where 80-90% of the population could not read. The distributed Buddhist scriptures, though concise compared to the voluminous Tripitaka Koreana, were equivalent in thickness to a Bible and were published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures. He contrasted his dedication to distributing books with others who spent their money on alcohol or coffee.
Prominent Buddhist Engagements and Leadership Roles
The speaker then presented a photograph of himself with a prominent Buddhist leader, emphasizing that this individual typically did not pose for photos with ordinary congregants, let alone with only one other person. This particular image was taken during a Buddhist lantern parade event in Yeouido, where Huh Kyung young appeared very young. He identified the individuals in the photograph: the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, Chandananda Thero, and Kang Seok-joo, the then-President of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism. Kang Seok-joo was a revered elder monk associated with temples like Jingwansa and Bongwonsa in Gangnam. The photograph also included the Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism and the Supreme Patriarch of Indian and Sri Lankan Buddhism, with Huh Kyung young positioned among them, accompanied by an interpreter.
This gathering, a Buddhist lantern parade, reportedly drew a million people to Yeouido Plaza. Huh Kyung young’s presence at the center of such a significant event, alongside the most respected figures in Buddhism, including Chandananda Thero and the President of the Jogye Order, underscored his profound influence and contributions to the Korean Buddhist community. He noted that his involvement was not trivial, as the event was a grand lantern festival held on Buddha’s Birthday, organized by the Korean Buddhist Denominations Association. He served as an advisor to the Buddhist Youth Federation. The presence of various denominational leaders, such as the President of the Taego Order and the Jingak Order, further highlighted the importance of his central position. He reiterated that his standing among the Jogye Order President, the Sri Lankan Supreme Patriarch, the Japanese Supreme Patriarch, and Professor Park Han-il, the President of the Korean Buddhist Laymen’s Association, was a testament to his significant role.
Social Activism and Political Involvement in His Forties
Huh Kyung young recalled that he was in his forties during these events, a period when he was actively engaged in public service. He mentioned his participation in organizations like the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice (CCEJ), where he was seen alongside Auditor Lee Moon-ho. A photograph showed him in front of Myeongdong Cathedral, wearing a coat, participating in a demonstration during a military regime. The protest advocated for economic justice and the resolution of wealth disparity. He emphasized his extensive activism in his youth, asserting that he is not merely someone afflicted with “president syndrome” but a divine being who has consistently supported both Buddhism and Christianity.
The End of Sectarianism and the Value of Scriptures
Huh Kyung young declared that with the advent of the Divine Being, the era of sectarianism has concluded. He reiterated his initiative to distribute scriptures from various religions, anticipating that people would soon come forward with these texts. He offered one million won for each copy of his inscribed Buddhist scriptures or Bibles, emphasizing that this was not a trivial sum and that his organization possessed the means to honor this commitment. He clarified that he distributed these scriptures not because he belonged to a specific religion, but because he encouraged people to embrace the teachings of saints. This impartial approach earned him acceptance from both Buddhist and Christian communities. He recalled Reverend Cho Yong-gi, a towering figure in Christianity at the time, standing alongside him, even noting the identical floral arrangements and neckties they wore, suggesting a shared connection.
Continued Engagements with Buddhist and Political Figures
The speaker then referenced another photograph with the President of the Jogye Order, Oh Nok-gun, who succeeded Kang Seok-joo. He also mentioned a photo taken on a building rooftop with singer Song Chun-hee, which had been shown previously. This Oh Nok-gun was identified as another President of the Jogye Order, a leader among the heads of all Buddhist temples in Korea, akin to a “President of Buddhism.” The speaker expressed the need for proper captions on these historical photographs for future reference.
Personal Reflections on Appearance and Influence
Huh Kyung young commented on his youthful appearance in the photographs, particularly alongside Reverend Cho Yong-gi, whom he described as having a very pleasant demeanor and impeccable style. He contrasted this with his own attire, noting that Reverend Cho’s clothing always fit him well. He also mentioned his preference for wearing matching colored suits, which he believed suited him. He reiterated that his religious activities were extensive and that the establishment of Haneulgung was not an overnight phenomenon. He actively promoted various religions, including Buddhism and Christianity. He reaffirmed his offer of one million won for any scripture bearing his name, emphasizing the organization’s capacity to fulfill this promise, even for members.
Encounters with Military and Political Leaders
The lecture then shifted to a photograph with General Lee Jin-sam, a four-star general in the Republic of Korea Army. Huh Kyung young explained that he attended Dongguk University’s graduate school, where many high-ranking police officers and military generals also studied. This led to numerous acquaintances among his peers in the police and military. He also pursued legal studies at Korea National Open University, indicating his broad academic and social engagement in his youth. He noted that General Lee Jin-sam, a former army chief, had many colleagues from Dongguk University’s public administration graduate school during the Roh Tae-woo administration.
The Endorsement of Oh Ji-myung and Song Hae
Next, a photograph with actor Oh Ji-myung was presented. Oh Ji-myung, known for his role in “Soonpoong Clinic,” had not appeared in the media for decades but actively campaigned for Huh Kyung young during his presidential bid in Daegu. This was attributed to Oh Ji-myung’s admiration for Huh Kyung young, recognizing him as a true leader. Huh Kyung young praised Oh Ji-myung’s discerning eye for recognizing a divine being, especially given his refusal to engage with other political parties or media interviews despite lucrative offers. Oh Ji-myung’s unwavering support, even knowing the slim chances of victory, was seen as a testament to his foresight and integrity, earning him immense blessings. Huh Kyung young declared a “level 1 million mo” blessing for Oh Ji-myung and his wife, Yoo Hyun-yi. He highlighted Oh Ji-myung’s selfless volunteerism, refusing any compensation for his efforts.
Huh Kyung young then addressed external criticisms, asserting that he is not the person portrayed by biased media. He emphasized his lifelong association with top religious figures, not obscure ones, and noted their visits to Haneulgung. Another photograph featured the late entertainer Song Hae, whom Huh Kyung young described as another special individual who recognized and admired him. He explained that celebrities, whose image is paramount, risk their reputation by associating with controversial figures. Yet, Song Hae chose to support Huh Kyung young despite public criticism, demonstrating his keen judgment. Huh Kyung young noted that he had bestowed a “level 1 million mo” blessing upon Song Hae, indicating the high regard he held for those who recognized his true nature.
Spiritual Guidance and Consultation for Leaders
Huh Kyung young recounted how prominent religious leaders, including pastors with thousands of churches like Kim Pung-il and the late Ok Han-heum and Hong Geon-seok, despite being significantly older, treated him as a peer. They sought his counsel on various matters, including family issues, marital problems, and church affairs. His advice, when given, was consistently accurate and profound, often leaving them astonished at his insight. He attributed this to his ability to discern spiritual truths, unlike others who lack the guidance of angels. He cited an example where a famous pastor sought his advice on relocating the graves of his parents, who were buried in different locations and religious contexts. Huh Kyung young’s guidance, based on angelic insight, provided a clear resolution that human knowledge could not achieve, bringing immense relief to those who consulted him.
Presidential Candidacy and National Service
The lecture then showcased a photograph of Huh Kyung young with other presidential candidates, including Lee Jae-myung, Shim Sang-jung, and Ahn Cheol-soo, at the grave of former President Kim Young-sam in the National Cemetery. The image captured Huh Kyung young performing a ceremonial incense offering, a moment he described as significant and dignified. He emphasized the rarity of such an opportunity to stand alongside five other presidential candidates at a national memorial. He noted that this event occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, with all candidates wearing masks during their campaign.
The Visionary Forehead and Unseen Contributions
Huh Kyung young drew attention to his forehead in the photographs, describing it not as an ordinary forehead but one that signifies leadership for the future world, beyond just Korea. He reiterated his 55 years of service, including the distribution of hundreds of thousands of scriptures and Bibles, anticipating that recipients would soon come forward to claim the reward. He mentioned that he himself no longer possessed copies of these texts.
The Significance of His Presence Among Leaders
He emphasized the profound significance of his presence among the presidential candidates, highlighting the distinct aura he possessed. He challenged the notion that anyone else had, in their youth, personally earned money to distribute hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Bibles, contrasting this with those who prioritize personal wealth accumulation. He anticipated that those who received the scriptures would simply state they received them for free, and their stories would be documented with photographs upon claiming the reward. He described the effort involved in distributing these scriptures at Buddhist and Christian events, not randomly on the street, but at organized gatherings.
Refuting Misconceptions and Demonstrating Authenticity
Huh Kyung young also mentioned his past acts of distributing free umbrellas during rain, alongside scriptures and Bibles, questioning if any other young person had undertaken such extensive service. He vehemently refuted accusations of being a thief or a swindler, calling such claims “nonsense” and attributing them to ignorance. He stated that the purpose of showcasing these photographs was to educate those, including police officers, who misunderstood his true identity and contributions. He proposed “Photographs of Huh Kyung young” as the title for the day’s lecture, asserting that these images served as undeniable proof of his close relationships with prominent figures like Reverend Cho Yong-gi and various Presidents of the Jogye Order, including Kang Seok-joo, Oh Nok-gun, and Hwang Jin-kyung. He clarified that while he had met past leaders, he had not recently met the current ones.
Historical Engagements with Religious and Political Elites
He further elaborated on his historical connections, mentioning his interactions with former Presidents of the Jogye Order, including Lee Jin-gwan and Beopjang, as well as leaders of Christian federations. He asserted that these photographs served as evidence of his central position at major events, often being placed at the forefront alongside the Supreme Patriarchs of Sri Lankan, Korean, and Japanese Buddhism, as well as the Presidents of various Buddhist orders and the Korean Buddhist Laymen’s Association. He specifically recalled Chandananda Thero, the Sri Lankan Supreme Patriarch, carrying a large, imposing fan. He also noted the passing of Kang Seok-joo.
Personal Style and Connections to Media Figures
Huh Kyung young commented on his attire in one photograph, a dove-gray suit, which he found appealing and similar to his current ceremonial robes. He identified the location as the 13th floor of the Hankook Ilbo building, where the Miss Korea pageant was held, indicating his past involvement as a judge. He mentioned his schoolmate, the son of Jang Ki-young, the former chairman of Hankook Ilbo, which led to frequent visits to the newspaper and meetings with Jang Ki-young, who was then Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Planning. He recounted how Jang Ki-young’s adopted son, Jeon-gil, who was his contemporary, worked as a secretary in Jang Ki-young’s office and later became president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate before his untimely death. He also mentioned his acquaintance with Jang Ki-young’s daughter-in-law, Moon-hee (whose actual name was Imo), and visits to their home in Seodaemun.
National Revolutionary Party Convention and Public Support
The lecture then presented photographs from the National Revolutionary Party convention, showcasing approximately 400 individuals who presented floral bouquets to Huh Kyung young. He noted the sheer volume of floral tributes, which took two hours to receive, causing some impatience among attendees. He emphasized that no other party convention in history had witnessed such an outpouring of floral gifts or such a massive gathering of people, estimated at 100,000, with many unable to enter the venue. He recalled this event took place in 2019, noting that the party’s history, including his multiple previous party formations since his forties, spanned less than a decade. He stressed that Haneulgung was not a sudden creation but the culmination of a long and profound history and tradition.
Early Political Engagements and Enduring Influence
The speaker then sought a photograph of his initial entry into the convention, emphasizing its importance over the floral tribute photos. He then presented a photograph of himself seated next to former President Kim Dae-jung at a New Democratic Party convention. He explained that he was invited due to his popularity among prominent politicians, many of whom were older than him. This image, taken approximately 10 years before Kim Dae-jung became president, in 1989, demonstrated Huh Kyung young’s early engagement with influential political figures and his ability to converse with them. He noted the presence of numerous National Assembly members in the background, highlighting the historical significance of the photograph.
Unveiling Hidden Contributions and Enduring Relationships
Huh Kyung young revealed that he had met all past presidents and high-ranking officials in Korea during his youth, stating that a full disclosure would be beyond imagination. He reiterated his unprecedented distribution of hundreds of thousands of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, a fact previously unknown to many. He explained that as a divine being, he could now reveal these contributions without concern for personal gain, having previously kept them private. He mentioned his meetings with Kim Dae-jung even during his periods of imprisonment and release, suggesting a clandestine collaborative role. He emphasized his non-partisan approach, maintaining relationships across the political spectrum, and his refusal to criticize any political party or leader, including Kim Young-sam, the Democratic Party, or the People Power Party, due to his personal acquaintance with their great figures.
The Divine Being’s Trials and Purpose
The lecture then showed a video of Huh Kyung young’s entrance at the National Revolutionary Party convention, where he first sat before ascending the stage. The master of ceremonies introduced him as the nation’s sole hope, destined to restore the country and save humanity, urging the audience to embrace him as a great leader. Huh Kyung young then reflected on the necessity for national leaders to endure hardships, citing Kim Dae-jung’s multiple imprisonments. He explained that even a divine being, descending from the heavenly realm, must experience human suffering to understand why humans commit sins and stray from the path. He described his own experience of living in the same environment as ordinary people, enduring trials, and dedicating his life to service and giving, rather than receiving.
The Return of Scriptures and the Gold Factory Experience
He reiterated his expectation that the distributed scriptures would soon resurface, offering one million won per copy, which could amount to ten million won for ten copies. He then transitioned to another set of photographs.
Encounters with Former Presidents and High-Ranking Officials
A photograph was presented showing Huh Kyung young seated behind former President Choi Kyu-hah, with former Presidents Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan also present at a memorial service for President Park Chung-hee. He pointed out the presence of President Park’s former secretary and the Director of the National Intelligence Service (NIS), emphasizing the significance of his seating position among such high-ranking officials. He also identified Park Se-jik, the Olympic Committee Chairman, in the third row, highlighting the strict protocol and security surrounding these events. He refuted claims that his presence at such gatherings was fabricated, asserting the authenticity of his interactions with these influential figures.
Further photographs included him with former President Park Geun-hye, her siblings Park Seo-young and Park Ji-hwan, and former Prime Minister. He also identified former Prosecutor General Lee Geun-gye, whose father was President Park’s elementary school teacher, underscoring the interconnectedness of those present. He pointed out Baek Nam-ok, the former chairman of the Republican Party and a relative of President Park’s mother, indicating the familial and political ties among the attendees. He stated that these historical photographs, though not widely publicized, were undeniable evidence of his deep connections.
Interactions with Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye
Another photograph showed Huh Kyung young with former President Lee Myung-bak at a party, where they were seen toasting each other. He then presented a photograph with Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Jun-hong, the nephew of President Park Chung-hee and brother-in-law of Kim Jong-pil, who had been part of Huh Kyung young’s election campaign. He also mentioned a photograph with President Park Geun-hye’s eldest daughter, who served as the Ambassador to the U.S., taken at New York Airport with the IOC President and Han Sung-soo, the U.S. Ambassador. He described these as significant encounters with globally recognized figures, emphasizing the rarity of such interactions. He also showed a photograph of himself and Park Geun-hye at a Park Chung-hee photo exhibition, noting the presence of journalists capturing their movements.
The Horse Racing Association Event and Park Geun-hye’s Smile
A photograph from a Korea Racing Authority (KRA) event during President Kim Young-sam’s administration showed Park Geun-hye present. Huh Kyung young described his arrival at the event, where he was greeted by Oh Kyung-hee, the KRA chairman, and notably, by Park Geun-hye, who smiled broadly and extended her hand to shake his. He emphasized the rarity of seeing Park Geun-hye smile so openly and initiate a handshake. He then showed a photograph of them seated together at the head table, indicating his designated place at such a prominent event. He refuted any claims of fabrication, asserting the authenticity of his presence and interactions.
Further images showed him standing with Park Geun-hye, the KRA chairman, and the Governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do at a year-end concert for underprivileged children in 2006, an event where Park Geun-hye donated 15 million won. He highlighted his front-row position among these influential figures. Another photograph depicted him dozing off during a long event, leaning against Park Geun-hye, illustrating his busy schedule and lack of concern for his surroundings. He reiterated that his presence at the main table with Park Geun-hye and the event organizers was not accidental, emphasizing the careful consideration given to seating arrangements at such high-profile events. He again showed the photograph of Park Geun-hye smiling brightly and shaking his hand, reinforcing the genuine nature of their interaction.
International Engagements: Washington D.C. and U.S. Presidents
The lecture then presented a photograph of Huh Kyung young in Washington D.C., noting the unique nature of such an image. Another photograph, dated January 21, 2001, showed him at a Democratic Party event in Maryland, USA, where he was invited by a broadcasting station and seated at the front among many Korean expatriates. He asserted that these were not ordinary photographs, refuting claims that he had not met former President Trump.
Connections to U.S. Political Figures and White House Events
He then showed a photograph with former President Trump, addressing claims that it was fake, pointing out his signature on his attire. He also mentioned photographs with former U.S. presidents, emphasizing his significant connections. He highlighted a photograph with a prominent figure who served as a co-chairman of the election campaign for former President George W. Bush, who had invited Huh Kyung young to a White House-marked party at Union Station. He also identified Kim Deok-yong, a National Assembly member, and Park Beom, a National Assembly member from Mapo, in other photographs. He clarified that these individuals were met separately from the Bush party. He distinguished between the exclusive Bush inauguration party at Union Station, attended by only 300 people worldwide, and other hotel parties attended by Korean National Assembly members, emphasizing the grandeur and exclusivity of the former.
Distinguishing Between Exclusive and General Gatherings
Huh Kyung young further elaborated on the distinct venues, noting the high ceilings and grand architecture of the Union Station party, contrasting it with the lower ceilings of the hotel parties. He explained that he attended the hotel parties after the main Bush party, where he encountered Park Geun-hye and other Korean politicians. He described the elaborate dress code and cloakroom service at the exclusive Union Station event, where women wore mink coats and men assisted them. He also mentioned meeting a Korean female entrepreneur who was invited to the Bush party. He then showed photographs from the hotel parties, which featured a more diverse crowd, including people of color, unlike the exclusive Bush party, which was attended by a more homogeneous group of “gentle” individuals. He described the luxurious setting of the Bush party, with ornate furnishings and attentive Black staff serving guests, underscoring its status as a world-class event.
Encounters with Diverse Individuals and Refuting Falsehoods
He also shared photographs with various women at the hotel parties, including a captivating Chinese woman with distinctive earrings, who sought to take a picture with him due to his popularity. He noted the diversity of people at the hotel parties compared to the exclusive Bush party, which was attended by globally prominent figures. He reiterated that his presence at the Bush party was genuine, refuting any claims of fabrication.
Global Engagements: China and U.S. Visa Expeditions
The lecture then presented photographs taken in Beijing, China, including one in front of Tiananmen Square and another at a war memorial. He then recounted an extraordinary experience of being summoned by the U.S. Ambassador, who granted him a visa and a flight ticket to the U.S. within a day, for an urgent invitation from President Bush. This expedited process, following a month of discreet investigations by the CIA, demonstrated his international significance. He refuted claims that he had not traveled to the U.S., citing a high court ruling that questioned the legality of the evidence used against him.
The Alchemy of Gold and the Plight of Laborers
Huh Kyung young then shifted to a personal anecdote about his experience working in a gold factory during his high school years. He explained the process of alloying gold to create 18K and 14K gold, which involved mixing pure gold (99.9% pure, or 24K) with brass. He described the arduous and hazardous work, including cutting gold with a knife and hammer, weighing it, and melting it with brass, which released toxic fumes containing cyanide. He recounted suffering from nosebleeds due to inhaling these fumes in a windowless factory designed to prevent gold dust from escaping. He explained that the factory floor was covered with carpets to collect gold dust, which would later be burned to recover the precious metal.
He described the process of melting gold and brass, which produced black smoke from impurities. He also mentioned adding cyanide to pure gold to further purify it, resulting in blue-colored impurities. He recalled how the intense fumes caused him constant nosebleeds. He was employed there by a pastor who encouraged him to earn money for his education. However, due to a discrepancy in the gold inventory, he was suspected of theft and dismissed, a turn of events he welcomed as it saved him from the toxic environment. He detailed the subsequent steps of the gold processing, where the molten alloy was extruded into noodle-like strands, cut, and then crafted into rings by skilled artisans. These rings were primarily for export.
He expressed his aversion to impurities, explaining that even a slight impurity could cause a gold ring to break. He emphasized the dedication of the factory workers who endured such harsh conditions, working tirelessly year-round for their wages. He expressed profound respect for these laborers, acknowledging that their struggles often led to the formation of labor unions. He stressed the importance of understanding their plight and ensuring their well-being, especially given the sacrifices they made for their families’ education and livelihood.
The Three Minds: Human, Sage, and Divine
Huh Kyung young then transitioned to a philosophical discourse, explaining the concept of “earnest entreaty” (간청, gancheong). He clarified that true entreaty comes from the “sincere heart” (충심, chungsim), not merely the “true heart” (진심, jinsim) or “devoted heart” (성심, seongsim). He explained that the “sincere heart” (충심) represents the inner, deeper heart, which is more profound than the ordinary heart. This “sincere heart” is associated with sages, while the ordinary heart belongs to common people. The “divine heart” (성심, seongsim) is the heart of a divine being, representing one’s true nature. He asserted that everyone possesses these three types of hearts: the common person’s heart, the sage’s heart, and the divine being’s heart. He explained that people perceive his photographs differently based on which of these hearts they are viewing from.
He further elaborated on the three levels of human consciousness: the human heart (인심, insim), which requires cultivation (수도, sudo); the sage’s heart (성인의 마음, seonginui maeum), which is a “sincere heart” (강충, gangchung) received from heaven; and the divine being’s heart (성통광명, seongtong gwangmyeong), which is connected to the light of heaven and earth. The “sincere heart” (충심) represents the solidified, latent consciousness from past lives, while the “divine heart” (성통광명) signifies enlightenment and connection to universal light.
The Three Principles of the Great Learning (대학, Daehak)
Huh Kyung young then connected these concepts to the “Three Principles of the Great Learning” (대학, Daehak), an ancient Chinese classic. He stated that mastering the Daehak is equivalent to mastering a hundred modern universities. The three principles are:
Illustrating Illustrious Virtue (명명지덕, myeongmyeongjideok): This corresponds to “divine enlightenment” (성통광명), emphasizing learning to live brightly and virtuously.
Loving the People (친민, chinmin): This aligns with “coexistence and co-prosperity” (상생, sangsaeng), advocating for friendly relations with all people and avoiding enmity. This principle also relates to the “sincere heart” (속마음) that considers others deeply, transcending competition.
Resting in the Highest Good (지어지선, jieojiseon): This signifies striving for the ultimate good, ensuring that actions are always aligned with the highest virtue. This principle also corresponds to “divine enlightenment” (성통광명).
He explained that these three principles are interconnected with the three types of hearts (심충성, simchungseong), providing a comprehensive framework for understanding human nature and ethical conduct. He noted that while these classical texts can be challenging, he presented them in an accessible manner, linking them to his own life experiences.
The Divine Being’s Power and the Current State of Society
Huh Kyung young reiterated that his photographs reveal his busy and impactful youth, demonstrating that he is not an ordinary person. He asserted his ability to manifest resources, such as 10 billion won for a presidential campaign, simply by setting his mind to it. He also claimed the power to instantly create Haneulgung, even from a state of destitution after imprisonment. He acknowledged that his rapid progress often attracted “anti-fans” who sought to impede him.
Legal Challenges and Unlawful Investigations
He then presented a news article from Naewoe Economic TV, titled “Huh Kyung young’s Side Raises Questions About Police Investigation’s Legitimacy.” The article detailed how his legal team criticized the Gyeonggi Northern Provincial Police Agency’s anti-corruption investigation team for procedural irregularities and demanded legal action. The core issue was the alleged theft of a hard drive containing Huh Kyung young’s lecture videos from his office by an individual named “Jessi,” who then illegally submitted it to the police. The police, without proper review or consent, used this material in their investigation.
Huh Kyung young’s legal team argued that, according to Supreme Court precedents, electronic information seized without the owner’s consent is inadmissible as evidence, and any secondary information derived from it is also invalid. They highlighted that the police failed to notify Huh Kyung young of the hard drive’s seizure and actively used the illegally obtained material, selectively exaggerating certain expressions from his lectures to frame him as a criminal. His legal team announced plans to file a special theft complaint against “Jessi” and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigation methods. They also suggested the possibility of a coordinated, false accusation campaign, noting that “Jessi” appeared to be the primary instigator of the complaints.
The article concluded by emphasizing the legal questions surrounding the police’s evidence collection and the anticipated legal response from Huh Kyung young’s side. Huh Kyung young added that court documents revealed “Jessi” had explicitly instructed others not to speak positively about him, indicating a deliberate attempt to harm his reputation. He asserted that all investigations based on this illegally obtained evidence were invalid and would need to be restarted, including those related to fraud, embezzlement, and sexual harassment. He stated that the police’s entire investigation was unlawful and that this information had been reported to the National Police Agency, as it had been widely covered by various news outlets.
The Divine Being’s Unblemished Record and Vision for Korea
Huh Kyung young emphasized that he, a divine being, was being targeted by those who committed illegal acts, despite his own unblemished record. He reiterated his unique history as a leader who distributed countless scriptures, a feat unmatched in Korea, and his 55 years of continuous service, which still costs 2 billion won annually. He questioned why someone who consistently runs for president would engage in illegal activities, as such actions would disqualify him. He asserted that he has embodied the principles of “illustrious virtue,” “loving the people,” and “resting in the highest good” since childhood, never consuming alcohol, coffee, or tobacco, and only drinking water. He saved money to develop policies for the nation, such as addressing the low birth rate, a concern he raised 30 years ago when others dismissed him as insane. He warned that what could have been easily resolved then now requires immense effort, as rural areas are increasingly populated by foreigners, making them unsafe for Koreans at night. He predicted that within decades, rural Korea would be predominantly occupied by non-Koreans, with native Koreans concentrated in cities, a demographic shift he had sought to prevent decades ago.
Continued International Engagements and the Brink of War
The lecture concluded with a review of Huh Kyung young’s “splendid memories,” showcasing his encounters with remarkable individuals. The audience was invited to applaud the Divine Being. The speaker then requested a video of free meal services, along with photographs of Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio. He identified Marco Rubio as the U.S. Secretary of State and Cory Gardner as a U.S. Senator. He mentioned a photograph with Marco Rubio, whom he described as Trump’s right-hand man, now serving as Secretary of State, traveling globally on Trump’s behalf. He recounted that Trump had arranged their meeting. He highlighted Rubio’s stature as a leading Republican presidential candidate, emphasizing his extensive network within the party, which Huh Kyung young also belonged to. He noted the difficulty for Korean National Assembly members to meet such high-ranking U.S. senators due to their demanding schedules.
He then presented a photograph of himself having lunch with Cory Gardner, the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy. He revealed that Gardner’s refusal to sign a document prevented a war with North Korea. The photograph showed Huh Kyung young, Gardner, and a North Korean representative in a serious discussion, just one day before a planned invasion of North Korea, with U.S. generals gathered in Hawaii. Gardner’s decision, influenced by his direct ties to Bush and Trump, prevented the allocation of war funds. Huh Kyung young described the intense expressions on their faces, particularly Gardner’s, which was usually bright and handsome, reflecting the gravity of the situation. He recalled advocating for “disposal” (폐기, pyegi) of North Korea’s nuclear program, while the U.S. representatives insisted on “permanent elimination” (영구적 제거, yeonggujeok jegeo), ultimately leading to a “buffer” solution. He emphasized the perilous nature of that meeting.
Concluding Remarks and Promotional Songs
The lecture concluded with a series of promotional songs for Haneulgung, performed by various singers. Huh Kyung young encouraged the audience to sing along and bestowed “level 3,000 mo” blessings upon the singers, the entire audience, and their ancestors with each song. He noted that the songs, including “The Day He Comes,” “The Way to Haneulgung,” and “Respect,” were well-produced and captivating. He emphasized the profound meaning behind the lyrics, which spoke of a divine figure appearing to save humanity and unify the world.
Final Blessings and Gratitude
As the songs concluded, Huh Kyung young extended a “level 10,000 mo” blessing to all participants, including their families and ancestors, expressing gratitude for their presence and the deep impression they received. The audience offered a final round of applause to the Divine Being.
The God-man’s Journey: Encounters with Leaders and the Path of Truth
- The God-man’s Enduring Presence and Extensive Outreach
Greetings. I am always present at Sky Temple, unlike those who travel for business or abroad. I deliver lectures every morning and afternoon, without exception. Many have attended these lectures, including numerous prominent individuals. Today, we shall examine photographs from my past.
I have met with all the major figures in Korea’s Buddhist and Christian communities. I am well-acquainted with many influential people. While there are numerous photographs with these renowned individuals, due to time constraints, I will present only a few.
One such photograph is with Pastor Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church. There are several such pictures. The flowers in the photograph with Pastor Cho are identical to mine, signifying a significant occasion. This photograph is decades old. It dates back several decades. The children have somewhat retouched it, but it captures me in my youth. Pastor Cho was also young at the time. This picture is from about thirty years ago. It is very old. The children attempted to enhance it, but it makes little difference.
I also possess a photograph with President Kim Dae-jung. I was very close to prominent religious figures in my youth. This includes Pastor Cho Yong-gi, Pastor Kim Pung-il, Pastor Ok Han-eum, and many others. Pastor Oh Jung-hyun of Sarang Community Church, for instance, is from Naesudong Church, where I attended. He is a successor to many pastors from that church. Pastor Ok Han-eum nurtured Pastor Oh Jung-hyun. Thus, there is a connection to Naesudong Church. I was like a pastor’s son there. It was during that time that I mastered Christianity. One could say I surpassed even theology professors in my understanding. My perspective differs from theirs.
- Philanthropic Endeavors and Spiritual Contributions
I distributed hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles during my period of service. If anyone possesses a Buddhist scripture or Christian Bible with my name inscribed as a donor, I will compensate them for their travel expenses and the value of the book. I am currently unable to locate them. I freely distributed hundreds of thousands of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. Some were inscribed with my name, while others were given as “gratuitous almsgiving” without attribution. I purchased and distributed Buddhist scriptures from Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures and Christian Bibles. Many recipients believed they were receiving them for free from churches or temples. I extensively promoted both Buddhism and Christianity in my youth.
Therefore, if anyone possesses a Buddhist scripture I distributed, and there must be tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, they might have discarded it. The color of the scriptures varied, but the Buddhist scriptures were a light brown and a dark blue. The Buddhist scriptures I distributed are worth approximately 10 billion Korean Won, and the Christian Bibles about the same. I distributed these freely with my own money in my youth. I did not only provide free meals for 55 years; I also distributed the scriptures of sages, from the Analects of Confucius to Mencius, to people.
Why did I distribute the scriptures of these sages? The illiteracy rate among our people was high, around 80-90%. Many could not read. So, I gave them to those who could. The Buddhist Tripitaka is vast, but the version I distributed was compact, about the thickness of a Bible, or slightly shorter. It was titled “Buddhist Sacred Text,” not “Buddhist Scripture,” and was published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures. I began distributing these books in my youth. I used the money others spent on alcohol and coffee to distribute books. This demonstrates a significant difference.
Pastor Cho Yong-gi, for instance, would not typically pose for photographs with just anyone, not even with his congregants. He would not take such pictures. It was a photograph of just the two of us. Now, let us look at a photograph with Oh Nok-won, the General Secretary of the Buddhist Jogye Order. Pastor Cho was the most prominent figure in the Christian community at that time.
This next photograph is from a Buddhist event in Yeouido. I was very young then. I am in the picture. This is the Most Venerable Chandananda, the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka. This person, do you know who this is? This is a prominent figure in the Buddhist community. This is the Most Venerable Chandananda, the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka. And this is Kang Seok-ju, the General Secretary of the Jogye Order. He served as the General Secretary at that time.
He was an elder monk from temples like Jingwansa and Bongeunsa in Gangnam. That is General Secretary Kang Seok-ju. Here is the Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism. The Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism, the Supreme Patriarch of Indian and Sri Lankan Buddhism, and our General Secretary are all present, and I am there. The person behind me is an interpreter. This was a Buddhist lantern parade where a million people gathered in front of the Buddhist temple. I was at the center of the grand assembly in Yeouido Plaza. Is this something that could happen to just anyone?
The person next to me is Professor Park Wan-il of Dongguk University, the President of the National Buddhist Lay Association. The interpreter and others are also standing there. I am standing at the center with the Most Venerable Chandananda, highly respected in the Buddhist community, and our General Secretary. The President of the National Buddhist Lay Association is also standing there. This demonstrates my significant contributions to the Korean Buddhist community, which no one can quantify. I was invited to stand in such a prominent position. It is no small matter. A million people were gathered for the lantern parade in Yeouido Plaza.
This was when I was in my forties. So, I must have performed extensive service in my youth. In Buddhism, the President of the Lay Association is highly regarded. Despite the presence of patriarchs from various denominations and many high-ranking individuals, I was at the center of this lantern festival, a grand assembly held on Buddha’s Birthday. This event involved lantern parades throughout Seoul, with people from temples nationwide preparing. The ceremony took place before the parade began.
I served as an advisor to the Korean Buddhist Youth Association. This event was hosted by the Korean Buddhist Denominational Council on the occasion of Buddha’s Birthday. If the General Secretary of the Jogye Order is here, then the General Secretary of the Taego Order and the General Secretary of the Jingak Order are also present. I was at the center. This is not a simple matter. I am in this photograph. The General Secretary of the Jogye Order, the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the General Secretary of Japan, the Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism, and Professor Park Wan-il, the President of the Korean Buddhist Lay Association, are all present. Standing with them is a significant position.
This was when I was in my forties. I was in my forties and fifties when I performed volunteer work in rural and fishing villages nationwide. My activities were not limited to presidential campaigns. You have seen me raising my hand at organizations like the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice. I was with Auditor Lee Moon-ok. Here, in front of Myeongdong Cathedral, I am standing in a coat. Auditor Lee Moon-ok is visible, sitting. Representatives of the Citizens’ Coalition for Economic Justice are visible. Kim Geun-tae, a member of the National Assembly, is also visible. This was a demonstration in front of the cathedral during a military regime, advocating for economic justice and resolving wealth disparity. I am holding a picket. I was very active in my youth.
I am not someone who suddenly appeared. I am not afflicted with “Presidential Syndrome.” I, the God-man, have assisted both the Buddhist and Christian communities. Therefore, I do not harbor any religious bias or partiality. Do we hold worship services here? Priests, Buddhists, and Christians are all present. With the advent of the God-man, the era of sectarian divisions has ended. I began distributing the scriptures of various religions. Soon, people will contact me about my scriptures. If someone brings one of my books, I will give them 1 million Korean Won. If you bring one of my books, I will give you 1 million Korean Won. The title is “Buddhist Sacred Text.” Search for it. Many people must possess it. If you find a Bible with my name inscribed, bring it, and I will give you 1 million Korean Won. Your parents might have it. Young people’s parents might possess it.
So, what kind of service did I perform? I engaged in extensive Dharma almsgiving. I indiscriminately distributed Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. If I had a particular religion, would I distribute them? No. I simply encouraged people to listen to and read the words of the saints. Therefore, I have no prejudice. Both Buddhists and Christian pastors welcomed me. Pastor Cho Yong-gi was a prominent figure in the Christian community at that time, and he stood with me, the God-man. Even the flowers were identical. My tie was given to me by someone in the Buddhist community. It was a Buddhist tie. I wore a red one, as I usually wear red.
Next, a photograph with Oh Nok-won, the General Secretary of the Jogye Order, after Kang Seok-ju.
This is a photograph of me with Song Chun-hee on a building rooftop. You saw it a few days ago. This person is also the General Secretary of the Jogye Order. He is the head of the military Buddhist chaplaincy. There are monks in military units who conduct Buddhist services for young soldiers. He is the head of the military chaplaincy. This person resembles me somewhat. I am standing here. Next to me is the singer Song Chun-hee. There are also figures like the President of the Buddhist Lay Association. These are prominent figures in the Buddhist community, the leaders of all Buddhist temples in Korea. They are the “presidents” of the Buddhist community. This person is Oh Nok-won. There is no text below the picture.
Such text should be included in the future. General Secretary Oh Nok-won, singer Song Chun-hee. Song Chun-hee was also young at the time. I was also young in this picture. I photograph well. I photograph well when the picture is taken properly. But now it is strange. When I took a picture with Pastor Cho, I was very young. Pastor Cho, in person, had a very good impression. He was very kind and dressed impeccably. My clothes were nothing compared to his. Pastor Cho’s clothes fit him perfectly. He was a pastor who looked good in his clothes. Monks’ robes are all like this. I wore this color from top to bottom. I was well-dressed. There are many photographs.
This indicates my extensive religious activities. Sky Temple was not built overnight. I personally promoted various religions, including Buddhism and Christianity. If you bring a Bible or scripture, it is 1 million Korean Won. We have the means to pay that amount. It is not a lie; we will pay even if our members bring them. Now, let us display the photograph with Lee Jin-sam.
That is General Lee Jin-sam, a four-star general in the army. I attended Dongguk University Graduate School. Many high-ranking police officers and military personnel attended Dongguk University Graduate School. So, I had many classmates who were high-ranking police officers and military generals. These individuals visited Sky Temple. While attending Dongguk University Graduate School of Public Administration and Korea National Open University Law School, I befriended many police officers and soldiers in my youth. General Lee Jin-sam is a four-star general who served during the Roh Tae-woo and Chun Doo-hwan administrations. Many of my classmates at Dongguk University Graduate School of Public Administration were his contemporaries.
Next, let us look at the photograph with Oh Ji-myeong. Oh Ji-myeong was by my side during the presidential election. He campaigned for me in Daegu. He has a unique characteristic: after “Soonpoong Clinic,” he did not appear in the media for decades. He stayed home and did not make public appearances or give interviews to reporters. However, he assisted me during my presidential campaign. This is because he found me appealing. He saw me as a true human being. He possessed the insight to recognize the God-man. Among contemporary people, he is someone I respect. He has remarkable discernment. How did he recognize the God-man? Many politicians contacted him.
He did not join any political party, ruling or opposition. He stood by me, knowing full well that I would lose. He knew I would lose, yet he campaigned for me. He refused interviews with reporters and television appearances. After “Soonpoong Clinic,” he declined all advertisements and appearances, even for billions of Korean Won. This person, who had withdrawn from the world, was always by my side during my presidential campaign. Is that not remarkable? He followed me because he respected no one else. How did he recognize the God-man? This is not easy. His lifelong reputation was at stake. This was broadcast nationwide. He knew I was a sure loser. He foresaw the future. He later received immense blessings.
Oh Ji-myeong and his wife, Yoo Yeon-hee, received a level of 1 million “mu.” He was not someone who asked for travel expenses. He was a remarkable volunteer. External sources, based on false media reports, portray me as something I am not. I am not such a person. From my youth, I associated with prominent religious figures in Korea. I did not meet obscure individuals but only the most influential. They even came to Sky Temple. Who is this woman? She looks familiar.
This person is Song Hae. He recognized me, and entertainers, especially unique individuals, appreciate me. They like me. Who is this person? He resembles me somewhat. Taking such a photograph is remarkable. For entertainers, their face is everything. Depending on who they are seen with, they can be disgraced. Yet, despite the criticism I faced, he came to me, saying he saw no one but Huh Kyung-young. Did this entertainer lack information? Did he not know? He watched all the broadcasts. He would not appear with anyone but Huh Kyung-young. He would not call anyone else. Why? He possessed the ability to discern people. He was a very astute individual. His wife was also a great beauty. He was a truly admirable person. That is why I granted him a level of 1 million “mu” for the first time.
The people I meet are not insignificant. They all like me. Even prominent pastors like Kim Pung-il, who owns a thousand churches, and the famous Pastor Ok Han-eum and Pastor Hong Geun-seok, all treated me like a friend, even though they were more than ten years my senior. They consulted me. They sought my advice on the direction of their churches and theological matters. They would exclaim, “Huh Kyung-young, how did you know that?” They were deeply moved. Those who understand quickly realize who I am. They invite me to meals and become close to me.
They discussed their children’s problems, their wives’ problems, and church issues with me. My solutions were always accurate. They would ask, “Mr. Huh, how do you know such things so well?” Even with large churches, they did not know. If we fail to discern properly, we will fail. I have angels with me. They do not have angels. How could they know? They would ask me about family matters, such as moving their parents’ graves during a leap month. Only my conclusions were trusted. They did not believe others.
I would tell them, “That date is fine. Do it then.” Or, “Do not move it in October. Leave it as it is.” Then they would leave it. “Do not try to do anything with the grave.” They would all listen to my words, even the pastors. They would ask the pastors, too. But the famous pastors would ask me how to handle their parents’ graves, one in the countryside and the other in a Christian cemetery in Seoul. They did not know. I would tell them. Even great monks would ask me. They said they could not know. But they wondered how I, Mr. Huh, knew everything. They felt relieved, as if a burden had been lifted.
Someone went to their father’s grave in the countryside and asked the villagers about moving it, but everyone had different opinions. Some said not to move it, others said to bring the mother, and others said the father should go there. The mother was in Seoul, and the father had passed away earlier in the countryside. The famous pastor did not know whether the mother should go to the father’s grave or vice versa. The father had not even attended church, so they did not know if he should go to the mother’s Christian cemetery. When I asked the angels, it was revealed that the mother should go to the countryside.
This is a realm they cannot comprehend with their knowledge. It is the spiritual realm. Now, let us look at photographs with the presidential candidates who ran in this election. My youth was indeed vibrant. I engaged in various activities. Here are Lee Jae-myung, President Yoon, Shim Sang-jung, the Gyeonggi Provincial Governor, and Ahn Cheol-soo. Some are praying. What am I doing? I am offering incense. This scene is also impressive. This is not an ordinary gathering. There are such people here. This is not an ordinary gathering.
This is the grave of Kim Young-sam at the National Cemetery. It was my turn to offer incense. Everyone wore black ties. There were five, no, six presidential candidates. This is a very memorable photograph. It was my turn to offer incense. Everyone stood. It is a magnificent photograph. Do you ever have the opportunity to offer incense with five former presidential candidates? This happened at the National Cemetery. This photograph was well-taken. It is impressive. This is only possible because I am the God-man.
This was during the COVID-19 pandemic. Everyone wore masks while campaigning. The presidential election took place during COVID-19. Everyone wore masks. It was unusual for COVID-19 to be present during a presidential election. Let us look at another photograph from that day with President Yoon. And a photograph with candidate Lee Jae-myung. I have many political photographs, but I look good in this one, offering incense. There are one, two, three, four, five, six people. How do I look? You must observe my forehead carefully. It is not an ordinary forehead. It is a forehead that will lead the future world. This is not the face of a Korean president but a face that will lead the future world.
This person has served for 55 years, distributing hundreds of thousands of scriptures and Bibles. Next week, someone might come forward with one of those scriptures and receive money. Then you will see those scriptures. You will know what year they are from. I distributed so many that they are now scarce. They are gone. However, the people standing in the front row are presidential candidates. It is impressive. But what I am saying is that this is how one should look. Observe the foreheads of the people standing. The aura is different. This is very important.
Is there anyone who, at a young age, earned their own money and distributed about a million Buddhist sacred texts and a million Bibles? Most people would be eager to save their money to buy stocks, not distribute them freely like me. The recipients who come to claim 1 million Korean Won for the books will say they received them for free. We will photograph them as proof. Distributing such thick scriptures and Bibles for free was also a task. If there was a Buddhist event, I would go there and distribute them. I did not just hand them out to passersby, asking if they believed in Buddhism.
At Buddhist events, I would distribute thousands of copies at the venue. I would do the same at Christian events. Was it not good? Did I only distribute umbrellas? I distributed free umbrellas when it rained. I distributed scriptures and Bibles. Was there such a young person at that time? Do they call such a person a thief? Do they call such a person a swindler? It is truly nonsense. The police, not knowing anything, think I am some kind of criminal. They are so ignorant that I am showing them my photographs. The title of today’s lecture should be “Huh Kyung-young’s Photographs!”
The title today is “Huh Kyung-young’s Photographs!” Then, when people search for “Huh Kyung-young’s photographs,” they will understand. I did not just meet Pastor Cho; we were close, as evidenced by these photographs. So, I befriended many older people in my youth. General Secretary Kang Seok-ju, General Secretary Oh Nok-won, General Secretary Hwang Jin-gyeong—all past General Secretaries were close to me. I have not met the recent General Secretaries. General Secretary Hwang Jin-gyeong, General Secretary Oh Nok-won, General Secretary Kang Seok-ju, and General Secretary Lee Jin-gwan, who was the president of Dongguk University, all served as General Secretaries. After him, General Secretary Lee Jin-gwan served, and then Ven. Beopjang. I met all the former General Secretaries and presidents of the Christian Council of Korea in my youth. And at events, they placed me at the center. The photographs are proof.
Therefore, if I, the God-man, were an ordinary swindler, how could I be at the very center with the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the Supreme Patriarch of Korean Buddhism, the Supreme Patriarch of Japanese Buddhism, the General Secretary of the Taego Order, the General Secretary of the Jingak Order, and the General Secretary of the Beophwa Order? And the President of the Korean Buddhist Lay Association. This person carried a large fan. The Supreme Patriarch Chandananda of Sri Lanka carried a large fan. He looked very stern. General Secretary Kang Seok-ju has passed away.
I do not recall wearing such clothes at that time. The color of the clothes is good. It is a dove gray. It resembles the color of a monk’s robe, and it seems to suit me well. I think the color is good. It is sophisticated. A gray suit suits me well. This is the 13th floor of the Hankook Ilbo building. This is where the Miss Korea pageant was held. I participated in judging the Miss Korea pageant. One of Jang Ki-young’s sons was my schoolmate. So, I frequently visited the Hankook Ilbo. I often met Chairman Jang Ki-young. Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office was on the 10th floor of the Hankook Ilbo building. At that time, he was the Deputy Prime Minister. This was during President Park’s era. He served as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Economic Planning Board. Chairman Jang Ki-young of the Hankook Ilbo. His secretary, who was my schoolmate, was Chairman Jang Ki-young’s adopted son.
He was a high school student at the time. He ran errands in Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office. After Chairman Jang Ki-young passed away, he became the president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate and passed away about 20 years ago. He had a short life. His name was Jeon Gil-chang. He died young while serving as president of a Hankook Ilbo affiliate. He was a self-taught student like me. Chairman Jang Ki-young took a liking to him and raised him like an adopted son. So, even after school, he had to be in Chairman Jang Ki-young’s office. He would leave when the chairman went home to sleep.
He constantly followed him around, like a boy. Everyone at Hankook Ilbo knew Jeon Gil-chang. Chairman Jang Kang-jae was similar in age to Jeon Gil-chang. Chairman Jang Kang-jae had a younger brother, and Moon-hee was his daughter-in-law at the time. So, I met Moon-hee several times. Chairman Jang Ki-young’s house was in Seosomun. Since it was in Seosomun, I could see her. Her name was not Moon-hee. I had a very interesting past.
Let us look at the photographs from the National Revolutionary Party convention. These are women who came up to me with flowers. About 400 people brought bouquets and took pictures. So many people brought bouquets. Let us also look at the overall photographs. Not everyone could come up. The overall photographs. There were many people. About 100,000 people gathered. Let us watch a video. It is interesting. It is remarkable. It took two hours to receive these bouquets, causing complaints at the convention. So, we had to stop after two hours. This is not easy.
There has never been a history of receiving so many bouquets at a party convention. Other conventions do not have such events where people bring bouquets. But we received them because people wanted to give them. The line of people giving bouquets was endless. We received bouquets from about 400 people. This has no precedent. And never before have so many people gathered at a party convention. I have seen many ruling and opposition party conventions. Ours was unimaginable, with about 100,000 people outside and inside, unable to enter. We held such an event.
This was a few years ago, in 2019. What year is it now? So, it has not been 10 years yet. It has not been 10 years. My party’s history is not yet 10 years old. But I founded parties in the past, starting when I was forty. I have created several parties. This did not happen overnight. So, I, the God-man, did not just appear and create Sky Temple. I have an immense history and tradition.
Is there no photograph of my entrance? Not the bouquet-receiving photographs, which are from much later, but my initial entrance from outside. Sky Temple needs to be spacious. It cannot be small. Not the bouquet photographs, but my first entrance from outside. You should have been looking for it while watching the other pictures. You should know what photograph I will look for next.
This is the very front of the photograph. Why is it not there? If you reverse it, it should appear. Who is this person?
This is President Kim Dae-jung. The person sitting right next to President Kim Dae-jung is me. I am sitting next to the president. This is the same seat as President Kim Dae-jung. This is in front of the New Democratic Party convention. Why was I invited here? Famous politicians, older than me, liked me so much. So, I am sitting on the platform next to him. I am sitting here. This is the chairman of the convention, and I am sitting next to him. That is me. At that time, I had a lot of hair, but my head looks bald because I am looking up. President Kim Dae-jung is raising his hand, and I am there. We are raising our hands in the front. This was more than ten years before Kim Dae-jung became president. This was before he became president. It was 1989, September 31st.
So, those Democratic Party members of the National Assembly were people I could communicate with in the past. President Kim Dae-jung and I could communicate. There are members of the National Assembly sitting behind us. These are old photographs. So, I met all the former presidents and high-ranking officials of Korea in my youth. If I revealed everything, it would be beyond your imagination. You probably heard for the first time that I distributed Bibles and Buddhist scriptures. People will now come forward with those books. You will see that those books are truly old. No one knows that I distributed hundreds of thousands of Bibles and Buddhist scriptures.
However, as the God-man, it does not matter if I reveal it now; it will not diminish my blessings. I simply kept it to myself. This person, Kim Dae-jung, was not yet president at that time. I met him after he was imprisoned and released. I secretly cooperated with him behind the scenes. So, I befriended people from both the ruling and opposition parties. This is such a photograph, from 1989. He ran for president, and I ran with him. This was not when we ran together. Later, in 1997, he became president. Ten years later, he ran for president, and I also ran.
Was it 1987 or 1997? In 1997, Kim Dae-jung ran and was elected president. I ran as a competitor at that time. So, we knew each other. Therefore, I never criticized President Kim Dae-jung, nor the Democratic Party or the People Power Party. Why? Because I knew all their predecessors. So, I am neither ruling nor opposition. I know everyone. Therefore, there is no criticism whatsoever.
Have you found the entrance photograph? Play it. With sound. I am entering. I do not go directly to the platform but sit in a designated area in front before going up. I do not go directly to the platform. Where did I sit? Play it. Not that one. There should be a scene of me sitting on the platform. This is a lecture, a speech. There is a place where I sit on a chair after entering. Let us see that.
Our emcee at the time said, “He is our only hope. He will set this collapsing nation straight and save suffering humanity. We all have confidence that Chairman Huh Kyung-young is the great leader who will manage this nation. Please keep this deeply in your hearts. Thank you, everyone. Please take your seats.”
A national leader must experience hardship. President Kim Dae-jung was imprisoned about ten times. We all go to prison, but only after experiencing such hardship does one become a humble leader. So, even though I, the God-man, descended from the Sky Palace, I must experience hardship in the human world. I am a “diamond spoon” from heaven. You are “gold spoons.” The “diamond spoon” must experience suffering in the human world. Why do humans commit sins? Why do they go that way? I came to observe this.
I came to experience it myself. It is not easy. But I have lived in the same environment as you. But it is different. I have lived a very unique life. Everything was about service. Giving, not taking. I only gave. Next week, the scriptures will arrive. Bibles and such. “Here is Huh Kyung-young’s book!” People will say, “Let’s go get 1 million Korean Won.” If you have ten books, it is 10 million Korean Won. It seems like a lot of money will be spent. It is interesting.
So, we have more photographs. What else is prepared? You must look closely at this photograph of Choi Kyu-hah and Chun Doo-hwan. This is President Park’s memorial service. Roh Tae-woo, Chun Doo-hwan, and Choi Kyu-hah are sitting in front. Who is sitting next to me? You know this person well. He was President Park’s secretary. He is here. I am here. This person is the head of the National Intelligence Service. Behind the president are bodyguards. You cannot sit in the bodyguards’ seats. Do you understand? One of these two people is the president. So, I am sitting behind Choi Kyu-hah. That is not an easy seat. Everyone is vying for seats. Do you know who this person in the third row is? Park Se-jik. The Olympic Committee chairman is sitting here. But sitting in the second row is not easy.
This person is Secretary Cho. This person is the commander of the Security Command. These are secretaries and bodyguards. Behind them is Park Se-jik. All the famous politicians are sitting in rows behind them. But I am sitting in the front row. This is not a seat anyone can just walk into. The security team has a strict seating arrangement. Is that not right? I am sitting in such a seat. I am not someone who goes around lying. I was involved in such important matters, but they claim it is all fake.
They even claim the photograph with Trump is fake. Here, you see Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man. These are the bereaved family members. President, President, President. This person is the Prime Minister. These are bodyguards. This person is a bodyguard, and this person is a bodyguard. I am here. Are these ordinary people? Do you know who this person is? Prosecutor General Lee Geun-gye. Lawyer Lee Geun-gye, Prosecutor General. Lee Geun-gye’s father was President Park’s elementary school teacher. So, everyone sitting here is in a significant position. Is this a seat anyone can just walk into?
Who is this person? This is Baek Nam-eok, the chairman of President Park Chung-hee’s Republican Party. You have heard of Baek Nam-eok. Whose family is Baek Nam-eok from? He is the brother of President Park’s mother. So, all his family members are sitting here. It is an impressive photograph. Although I have not revealed these, these are not ordinary photographs. These are truly historical photographs. So, I, the God-man, am not someone who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, using someone else’s name. I remained silent because I chose not to speak. But I can reveal it someday. If they say it is not true, then so be it.
Who is this person? President Lee Myung-bak. I am here. Although the photograph came out a bit strangely, it was a party, so the lighting was not ideal. President Lee Myung-bak is right next to me. We are holding glasses together. These are photographs of us toasting each other. Next. A photograph with Park Ji-man. A photograph of the two of us. Next. Here are Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young. Do you know who this person is? Park Jun-hong. Park Jun-hong was President Park’s favorite nephew, the son of his older brother. His sister was Kim Jong-pil’s wife. So, there is a connection there. He was in my campaign during my election. You know Park Jun-hong. He was in my campaign.
These are all family members. All family members. Here are Park Geun-hye, myself, Park Jun-hong, Park Seo-young, and another person, President Park Geun-hye’s eldest daughter, Ambassador Han Ju-mi. I have a photograph with Ambassador Han Ju-mi. A photograph of me with the IOC President and President Park Chung-hee’s son-in-law at New York Airport. Han Seung-soo. I have a photograph with Han Seung-soo. Here it is. This person is the IOC President. Kim, what is his name? Kim Yong-woon. This person is Ambassador Han Seung-soo. I am standing here after arriving at New York Airport. We are taking a shuttle bus. Someone took a photograph inside the shuttle bus. This person was also tired. He is the IOC President. Ambassador Han Seung-soo also took a photograph with us. We were traveling together. This is a shuttle bus inside the airport. We had not even washed our faces after the flight.
These are old photographs. These are remarkable people. You might think the IOC President is nothing special, but he is recognized worldwide. Ambassador Han Seung-soo is the representative of Korea in the United States. We flew together, arrived together, and took a shuttle bus at New York Airport. This pillar is inside the shuttle bus. It is like a tram. We were on our way to the airport terminal. It is a truly remarkable photograph. What year is this photograph from? Next. It is interesting. This is a photograph with Park Seo-young. This is a photograph with Park Geun-hye. This is an exhibition of President Park Chung-hee’s photographs.
Do I know these dates by some supernatural power? No, we coordinate everything and go together. We are walking together, dressed in black, with slightly black ties. We are well-dressed. This is how we looked at the time. Reporters were watching us from all directions. They were photographing us. This is not something anyone can just walk up and do. They captured us walking and looking at the photographs. Do you understand? It was a long time ago. In my youth. Next photograph. It came out well. This is a photograph of President Park Geun-hye with Oh Gyeong-hee, the president of the Korea Racing Authority, taken during President Kim Young-sam’s time. President Park Geun-hye was at the event when Oh Gyeong-hee was the president of the Korea Racing Authority.
This is my seat. When I arrived, Oh Gyeong-hee looked at me. Who is smiling broadly? Park Geun-hye is smiling broadly. This is probably the first time you have seen President Park Geun-hye smiling so brightly. She is truly smiling broadly. She extends her hand. We shake hands. And she sits next to me. A photograph of us sitting. I arrived a bit late. We are sitting. This is my seat. This is a bodyguard. This is not fake. This is table number one. There are many tables at the event, and my seat was prepared at table number one. I greeted them. I sat next to them.
Is this fake? Do not even say it. Next photograph. I am standing here. This is during the pledge of allegiance to the flag. I am here. Park Geun-hye, the president of the Korea Racing Authority. This person is the governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do Province. Behind them is a famous singer, a plump singer. Behind them are members of the National Assembly. So, I am standing in the very front. The bodyguards are standing like this.
This was the 2006 Year-End Concert for Fundraising for NGO Seoul Citizens’ Movement to Help Child-Headed Households. Is this a place anyone can go to? Only invited guests are present. This person is the host. On this day, President Park Geun-hye donated 15 million Korean Won to child-headed households. So, the people who came here must have had some connection. This was an event held by the Korea Racing Authority. It was held inside the Korea Racing Authority building. So, only prominent people are in the front row of this photograph. Next, a photograph of us sitting. A photograph of us sitting. I am standing here. This person is Oh Gyeong-hee, the president of the Korea Racing Authority. This person is the governor of Gyeongsangbuk-do Province. This person, the president of the Korea Racing Authority, served as a member of the National Assembly several times. President Park Geun-hye is leaning on this person. I was so tired that I fell asleep. I was sleeping soundly, leaning against someone.
I was not paying attention to what was happening around me; I was just sleeping. I was actually dozing off. I was dozing off. The event was long, so I was dozing off. I was that busy at the time. So, from this one event, you can see where I sat, where I stood, and at which table. The seat I sat in earlier was table number one. Only the event host, Park Geun-hye, and I sat there. Are there no other prominent people in Korea? She was injured on her right cheek with a razor blade. So, the person sitting next to her was very cautious. It was a sensitive time. It would be a big problem if just anyone sat next to her. When I, the God-man, stood and shook hands, she smiled brightly. And I sat there. What more needs to be said? There is such a photograph. So, I am sitting here, and after the event, when we lined up, I sat next to her. This is table number one. The point is, sitting in this line is not a seat anyone can occupy. The event organizers are not foolish. Look at the handshake at table number one. She is smiling very brightly. Her teeth are visible.
So, why do I need to explain it verbally? Why do I need to explain it? They claim I, the God-man, am a fake. Is that not right? She is not someone who smiles easily. You know that. Have you ever seen her face like that? Did she just shake hands with anyone? No, the table is empty. She sits down again. And she sits with me again later, and stands with me again later. They are most afraid of the person standing next to them. They are most afraid of the person standing next to them. Look. She is at ease. She is at ease. This is a very important story. Even if I do not explain it in detail, we should understand what it means.
We took this photograph in Washington. Is there anyone else who took such a photograph in Washington? This is a bouquet. The lighting was poor, so I look old. This was a welcome in Washington on January 21, 2001. This was hosted by a Democratic Party broadcast in Maryland, USA. Many people were sitting in front. Korean expatriates were sitting there, and we sat in the front row. We took a photograph. This is not an ordinary photograph. So, people claim I did not meet Trump. You can see how much they distort the truth. But someday, the truth will be revealed.
This is Trump. They claim this photograph is fake. My clothes are in this signature. This person is Chairman Lim Cheong-geun. You have seen Chairman Lim Cheong-geun’s resume. He took photographs with all the US presidents. He is a remarkable person. He does not reach Trump’s shoulder. But when the two of them talk, the president cannot move. He is so good at English and has such charisma. We are smiling broadly, but he is frowning. He does not smile. He is such a charismatic person, yet he is like this with the president’s shoulder. He has a remarkable resume. He has assisted US presidents since his youth. You have seen it several times. Let us look at the photographs. This is not fake. I am at the US presidential inauguration party at Union Station. This person who invited me is the co-chairman of the election campaign, just like President Bush of the Republican Party. This person is the co-chairman with the US president.
This person invited me. This person is the head monk of Daegaksa Temple in Busan. Daegaksa Temple in Busan is known for its immense wealth. He is a monk. This is President Bush’s party. This is the White House logo. This person is Kim Deok-ryong. Kim Deok-ryong is a member of the National Assembly. Do you know who this person is? A member of the National Assembly from Mapo. This person’s name is Park, and he was famous. A member of the National Assembly from Mapo. This person is Kim Dong-young. I also have a photograph with him. These people did not meet me when I met Bush. We met separately. Park Geun-hye was also here with me, the Senior Secretary for Economic Affairs of the Blue House, and Son Gil-seung, the chairman of the Federation of Korean Industries. This person was invited to Bush’s party. If you wear these clothes, look.
I am here. This is Kim Dong-young. This is probably Assemblyman Cho Hee-jun. This person is Assemblyman Park from Mapo. It has been so long. But these clothes are different from the previous photograph. These people. This was a special party at Union Station, attended by 300 people from around the world. This party was attended by 300 people. Not these people, but the one with the members of the National Assembly. The photograph from a moment ago. Not the one with the members of the National Assembly. The photograph that just appeared.
Is it not that easy? We need to be able to find things instantly. Is it difficult to find the photograph that just appeared? Look here. On the roof. Look closely. This is a different place. These people could not attend Bush’s inauguration party and were at a hotel. Look here. The ceiling is not even 1 meter high. This is a different venue. I went to the next party where these people were. I went to take photographs. Many Korean members of the National Assembly were there. These are all members of the National Assembly. They attended. But this is not that party venue.
Now, display the previous party venue. The one with the three people. The ceiling is not visible. The ceiling is over 20 meters high. It is endless. You see it. You see it. Here, the pillars of the party venue are endlessly tall. This is just the beginning. It continues to rise. This venue is where I met Bush’s party, and the venue where the members of the National Assembly were is not like this. You need to understand that. This venue is not that venue. This is a C-grade hotel party, and I just went there after the other party ended. Because Park Geun-hye was there. Park Geun-hye was here. So, I went and took a photograph. We met and took photographs. This was a long time ago. These people have all retired now. They were all prominent figures at the time.
This party in the US is not Bush’s party. You see the roof, the ceiling. This is the party venue where the members of the National Assembly were. This photograph is different. You see the ceiling. This is a hotel. The previous one was not a hotel. The ceiling of that party was tens of meters high. It was a grand party. Only 300 people from around the world attended that party. It was Bush’s first party after his inauguration, attended by 300 people from around the world. This party, you see the roof. These people were not invited to Bush’s party; this was the second party. Here, the ceiling is high. I am standing here with a senator. You see the pillars.
This is not a hotel. This is the special party venue at Union Station. You see the height of the door. This is the height of the entrance. It is remarkable. And there is a dressing room here where all the women took off their coats. They took off their outer coats. They were all wearing mink coats, black or other strange colors. When they took off their clothes, a man would give them a ticket. He would give them a key, and a man would take their clothes and hang them up. That was the etiquette. But I had nothing to take off. I just walked in with my clothes on, but the women all took theirs off. You see these women. These are all wives.
This person is the vice president of the Korean Women Entrepreneurs Association. She was at Bush’s invitation party in the US. This is Bush’s party. This is a photograph of me with the chairman. This is a photograph of me with the chairman. This party is not the Union Station party. It is a hotel party. You see the ceiling. This woman is holding food. This is a newlywed couple. This person is from Mexico. There are no such people at this hotel, but there are such people at the hotel. There are people of color, but at the A-grade party I attended, there were no such people at all. Everyone was gentle. Outside the hotel, there were about 100 limousines, 6-7 meters long.
Those are the cars they use. This is a hotel. You see the roof. We moved here because we saw the roof. These are all Korean expatriates. These are all expatriates. These are all expatriates. This is a hotel. This is a photograph taken at the hotel. This person is a Chinese woman photographed at the hotel. Chinese women’s earrings are different. You see them. The earrings are amazing. I actually talked to this woman next to me. This is also a Chinese woman. The two of them liked me. Even at the party in the US, they wanted to take a photograph with me. People were taking photographs with me. I asked if I could take one too. This woman was the most attractive person at the party.
She looks like that in the photograph, but she was a mysterious woman. She was slender and dressed like this. It was a Chinese style. These are Chinese women. We exchanged a few words in English, but her smile and face were unique. She had a confident charm, and her earrings were about 1 meter long. Her earrings were measured in meters. Look at her taking a call. This is the reception area. This is a hotel. Look at her on the phone. She is unique. So, in the US, the East Asian people were indeed better. Better than American women. East Asians definitely stand out. She has a unique appearance. These are all wives of Korean expatriates in the US. These are expatriate couples. This is Bush’s party venue.
Bush’s party venue has different tableware. All the tableware is ornate, and all the chairs are made of brass. Everything was set up. This is a flower arrangement. It is placed there, and these cups are unique. Hotels do not have such things. At Bush’s party venue, the furnishings are different, and all the attendants are Black people standing in a line. Black people are standing in a line, serving. You see the Black people. They are all standing in a line. They are all wearing bow ties. I am wearing one, and he is wearing one. This party is the best party in the world.
I attended such parties and met the world’s most prominent women. But this is not Bush’s party venue. This is a hotel party venue. This is a hotel party venue. Even among white people, there are beautiful women. But many people want to take photographs with me. Mostly women. This is a hotel. It says “hotel” here. This is a hotel in Washington. On one side, there are musical instruments. This is a hotel lounge. Not the photograph of those women I took earlier. Why only the ugly women? This is an Iranian woman. This is a Swedish woman. Anyway, many people took photographs with me. But they claim I did not go to Bush’s party. Is this fake? No, it is real. Look at her hairstyle. This is not Bush’s party venue. It is a hotel.
This person’s body is not a body. When you see this person, who do you think of? Look at these people. Wow. But plump people have different faces. Their faces are plump. Look at the woman. Her buttocks are huge. Wow. Photographs are interesting. Next. Black people were not present at the first party where I met Bush. But at this hotel, there are many such women. It is interesting. So, at the hotel, there were many diverse people, but at Bush’s original party venue, there were no such women. Only prominent people from around the world were sitting there, dignified and interesting. Have I shown you most of my photographs?
Show me what is left. Photographs taken in Beijing, China. These were taken in China. Photographs taken in front of Tiananmen Square. I am here. Photographs taken in front of Tiananmen Square. No, this is not Tiananmen Square. This is the Chinese National Assembly building. This is where the Chinese president resides. It is like our Blue House. And this is Beijing, where Xi Jinping is. In front of Tiananmen Square. Photographs taken in front of Tiananmen Square. This is a war memorial. This is also in front of Tiananmen Square. Photographs taken here.
A photograph of the two of us. Chinese photographs are not very interesting. So, due to time constraints. Is there anything else we have not seen? There are so many photographs. I have only shown you a few. So, “Huh Kyung-young’s Photographs” show what I did last month. People call me a swindler because I live in the mountains, but internationally, the US ambassador called me and issued a visa on the spot. He gave me a ticket to the US for the next day. How fast is that? He told me to go to the airport the next morning. Everything was arranged. I was bewildered.
A month before that, the CIA had been visiting my office and home. I wondered what it was about. It was an investigation sent by the US. Someone from the US came and looked at my house. I thought it was strange, but suddenly, the US ambassador called through a counselor. He asked me to come to the US Embassy in Gwanghwamun immediately. When I arrived, he handed me an invitation from President Bush and told me I had to depart the next day. Visa today, departure tomorrow. My flight tickets were already booked. It was fast. I was taken to the US unexpectedly. But they claim it was fake. They claim I did not go to the US. The Seoul Central District Court and the High Court ruled that I claimed to have gone to the US when I had not. It is outrageous.
But I, as a man, let it pass. I will reveal it later. So, as I said earlier, pure gold is 99.9%. Pure gold is called pure gold. It is 99.9% pure gold. 18K is 70% gold. 14K is 45% gold. I was the one who mixed these. In a gold factory, there are large chunks of gold. They are very large. We cut them like this. We cut them with a knife and hammer. If you saw them, powder would come off. So, we cut them sharply with a knife. Then, we weigh them and cut brass to match the weight. If brass is 30% and gold is 70%, it becomes 18K. If gold is 45% and brass is 55%, it is 14K. The K value decreases. Then, this K must be boiled. When you melt brass and gold, black smoke comes out. That smoke is impurities. Even if you add cyanide to pure gold, impurities will still emerge for a long time. The impurities are blue. They enter your nose. They come out as smoke. When you boil the gold, your nose bleeds continuously.
So, in high school, I worked there because a pastor helped me get a job, telling me to earn money there to pay for school. The pastor, who was like a father at the church, did not give me a single coin. He told me to earn money and go to school. Since I was from North Korea. But my nose bled so much because I was inhaling cyanide every day. Cyanide is white. You scoop it with a spoon and put it in, but there are no windows in a gold factory. The gold dust must not fly away. It must settle. So, the factory floor is large, but it is all tatami mats. If you walk on tatami mats, dust will rise.
But if you burn the tatami mats later, a lot of gold comes out. So, they have to lay tatami mats. If it is not tatami, gold will stick to your shoes and be carried out. So, they always lay tatami mats. Then, gold goes into the gaps between the tatami mats. When I melt gold, no powder comes out, but jewelers cut it. So, a lot of powder comes out there. It flies around and settles. They collect all of it. So, the air is not good. But after a few months of me working there, my nose bled so much that the Sky Palace took me out of there.
A gold ring disappeared. Gold was missing. The number was wrong. But who would they suspect? I was the last one to come in. Everyone looked at me. I did not take the gold. I was fired. How fortunate was that? I was so happy to be fired. The pastor said, “The gold factory called. Do not go to the gold factory anymore. They said gold is missing.” I said, “I did not take the gold.” He said, “Do not go. They already suspect you because the gold is missing.” If the gold had not gone missing, my nose would have continued to bleed there. I survived because of that stolen gold. You get lung cancer.
They alloy it in boiling water, in boiling fire. They pull it out like noodles. If you put it in a machine, the gold comes out like noodles. Then, you cut it into pieces and give it to the ring-making team. Gold noodles keep coming out. When you cut the gold noodles, they use them to make rings by filing them. So, I saw the entire gold-making process. The sizes are fixed. You have to cut them precisely. When you give them to them, they process them and solder them to make gold rings. It is amazing.
They also file them. There are also round rings. There are flat rings, but they make them all. They do not sell them domestically. They are all for export. It was an export factory that made gold rings, so how much gold must they have melted? So, do I like impurities or not? When you melt gold and brass with cyanide, a black, blue smoke comes out, and that smoke is indescribable. The smoke does not just come out; it floats blackly in the gold. If you keep boiling it, the soot disappears. When it is all gone, the gold becomes like glass. It becomes clear.
Whether it is 18K, 14K, or 24K, there are no impurities. If you give gold with impurities to someone, the gold ring will break in the middle. Impurities form a grain. You have to remove all of them. Then the gold ring will have the proper color. Oh, when I think about being thrown out of the gold ring factory in high school, it is beyond words. You cannot breathe. But our workers are remarkable people. They do not say a word there. They just keep doing that work. Twelve months a year, they get paid. When you see those male workers who sacrifice their bodies to earn money, sitting there hitting and filing, you feel respect for them. You feel respect for the workers.
You might have disliked unions, but try working there. You would want to earn a few more pennies. That is why unions are like that. So, you cannot just say unions are bad without experiencing it. Those workers sacrifice their bodies in that poor environment. They die there. But their children need to live like human beings, so they need tuition fees. They need to pay for tutoring. So, they demonstrate. They demand more money. So, you can understand everything if you experience hardship. So, if we do not properly guarantee the workers who are suffering so much, is that right? We should guarantee them.
So, today, since you have only seen photographs, I should give a brief lecture. So, we have the outer mind, the inner mind, and the true mind. This is the outer mind. Today’s lecture ends with this. What I am saying is that when we do something, when we earnestly request something from someone, how should we phrase it? “I earnestly request with sincerity” is incorrect. “I earnestly request with sincerity” is incorrect. This must be included. You must remember this.
“I earnestly request with utmost sincerity.” You have heard this phrase. You earnestly request with utmost sincerity. If you request with your outer mind, it will not be heard. The inner mind is always recognized more than the outer mind. So, “I earnestly request with utmost sincerity.” This is the correct phrasing. You understand now. The inner mind is always recognized more than the outer mind. So, you should not use the character for “loyalty” here. That is incorrect, even when addressing a king. You must use this character. “I earnestly request with utmost sincerity.” So, when we earnestly desire something, this must be included, not that. Sincerity is also incorrect. Utmost sincerity is the correct phrasing.
So, when we offer something with physical strength, that is a common person. Then, offering with this is what ascetics do, using their inner mind. Finally, the true mind is the mind of the God-man. The mind of the God-man. This true mind is also within your hearts. Do you have this true nature or not? You do. You have it. So, you have the mind of the God-man, the mind of an ascetic, and the mind of a common person within you. But when you look at my photographs with the same eyes, everyone sees something different. Why is that? Why is it different? Everyone’s mind is different. Everyone’s mind is different.
So, the human mind is a path of cultivation. The human mind is a path of cultivation. The human mind is a path of cultivation, and the mind of a saint is what? It is the descent of the divine inner mind. So, it is the inner mind received from heaven, descended from the divine. That is the mind of a saint. And this true nature is connected to the light of heaven and earth. This is the mind of a saint. This mind of true nature, this mind of inner mind, and this mind of outer mind. These three, the cultivation of the human mind, the descent of the divine inner mind, and the connection to the light of heaven and earth, indicate that people’s minds are different. The inner mind descended from a single divine being. You are a single divine being, a part of the divine. That is the mind, and this is the light of heaven. So, in “Great Learning,” you study “Elementary Learning” and “Great Learning.”
If you master the “Great Learning” from classical Chinese, it is better than mastering a hundred modern universities. The “Great Learning” itself has three main principles.
The three main principles of “Great Learning” are “illuminating illustrious virtue,” “loving the people,” and “resting in the highest good.” “Illuminating illustrious virtue” is the first principle pursued in “Great Learning.” This is the connection to the light of heaven and earth. Learning to live brightly is “illuminating illustrious virtue” in “Great Learning.” Next is “loving the people.” This is the second principle of “Great Learning.” If you condense “Great Learning” into three points, it becomes this. Next is “resting in the highest good.” This is how it is written. These are the three meanings of “Great Learning.” So, we master “Great Learning.”
All the content of “Great Learning” is structured around these three main principles. “Illuminating illustrious virtue” means seeing everything brightly is virtue. “Loving the people” means interacting and becoming close with all people and the common folk. You should not create enemies. This is the fundamental purpose of studying “Great Learning.” “Loving the people.” We must coexist. We cannot just live for ourselves. “Resting in the highest good” means aiming for the ultimate good. So, if it is not the ultimate good, you do not act.
So, you must understand these three main principles of “Great Learning” by comparing them to these. These, the outer mind, inner mind, and true mind, are included in the three main principles of “Great Learning.” This ultimate good is the connection to the light of heaven and earth. “Loving the people” means considering others with your inner mind. Although we compete with others with our outer mind, in our inner mind, it is not like that. They could be our in-laws, our family, or our mother from a past life. If you delve into your inner mind, you cannot fight with others. “Illuminating illustrious virtue” means always seeing people brightly, which is cultivating virtue. “Great Learning” in classical Chinese is a bit difficult. This is a condensed version of it.
I am telling you this because it might not be interesting if I just talk about these things. So, I am telling you this while showing you photographs. If I were to lecture on the three main principles of “Great Learning” as I learned it, would you understand? So, what is “Great Learning”? What is “Elementary Learning” and “Great Learning”? “Great Learning” is this. “Illuminating illustrious virtue,” “resting in the highest good,” aiming for the ultimate good. Can a truly good person do bad things? A truly good person cannot do bad things. That is the meaning. I am explaining it roughly because you might not understand if I go into detail.
Today, I showed you my photographs because there is still much you do not know about me, the God-man. But I was busy in my youth and accomplished many great things. And if I set my mind to it, even if I have no money for a presidential election with only a few months left, I can create money. I can create an enormous amount of money. If I decide in my heart, “I will run for president this time. I need 10 billion Korean Won,” I can make it happen. I will build Sky Temple. Why did I come here alone, staying at someone else’s house? I built it quickly. Then I ran for president again. And I lost a lot again. And then I was arrested again. I was arrested. What is the big deal? I did nothing wrong. So, if I set my mind to something, heaven moves. I was always buying and distributing Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, so how could I have money? The presidential election was approaching, and I had no money.
Then, if I sit in my room and say, “I will run for president this time,” it just happens. I came here. I came here and was staying at someone else’s house at first. I came empty-handed. What happened after I was released from prison? I sat empty-handed and said, “I will make this entire village, this entire Jangheung-myeon, into Sky Temple.” And it happened. It happened very quickly. Because the speed is so fast, anti-fans appear to put on the brakes. To prevent accidents. Now, display the newspaper article that came out today.
Now, the anti-fans are cornered. Look. “Huh Kyung-young’s Side Raises Issues with Police Investigation’s Legitimacy.” What does this mean? Look. “Huh Kyung-young’s side strongly criticized the Gyeonggi Northern Provincial Police Agency’s anti-corruption investigation team’s procedures and announced legal action.” What this means is that, according to the legal team, Mr. J, who led the complaint in this case, stole a hard drive from the Bonjwa Providence Association office. He illegally took it out. It was not allowed to be taken.
He illegally took out a hard drive containing all my lecture content and illegally submitted it to the police. The police used it in their investigation without sufficient review. To use it, they needed my permission. If someone takes the secrets from my phone to the police, it is not admissible evidence. Any investigation based on that is invalid. Do you understand? We must give our consent. Someone copied all my documents and submitted them. The hard drive in question contained original video recordings of Huh Kyung-young’s lectures. The legal team emphasized that, according to Supreme Court precedents, electronic information submitted by a third party without the owner’s consent cannot be seized, and Mr. J’s illegal acquisition of it poses a significant problem.
Indeed, a Supreme Court precedent ruled in November last year that seizing electronic information submitted by a third party without the owner’s consent violates the warrant principle and due process. Accordingly, the court ruled that not only the information itself but also any secondary evidence obtained based on it cannot be admitted as evidence of guilt. Do you understand now? Huh’s legal team argued that the police’s failure to even notify them of the hard drive seizure, and their analysis and use of the data, constituted a clear illegal act. In particular, the police’s claim of criminal charges by exaggerating only certain expressions from the lecture videos was also pointed out as a problem. The legal team stated that the police claimed to have reviewed all the lecture videos, which means they actively used illegally obtained data.
Furthermore, they demanded that the witness and suspect interrogations conducted based on this data be redone. In addition, Huh’s side plans to file a complaint against Mr. J for special theft and is considering legal action against the police’s illegal investigation methods. Meanwhile, Huh’s side also raised suspicions that Mr. J led the complaint in this case, spreading false information and defaming him. The legal team stated that the documents submitted to the court show that Mr. J directly led the complaint in this case, and the possibility of collective false complaints cannot be ruled out. So, he systematically gathered people, mostly his family members, and included others, promising to get them money, and then filed a sexual harassment complaint.
So, how much of a lie was that? They did not even know they were being accused of sexual harassment. They signed something, thinking they would get money, but it turned out to be a different complaint. Look. This controversy raises questions about the legality of the Gyeonggi Northern Provincial Police Agency’s anti-corruption investigation team’s evidence collection procedures. With Huh Kyung-young’s side announcing strong countermeasures, attention is focused on how the police investigation will proceed. There is even a statement from Mr. J in the court documents saying, “Oh, please do not tell anyone I gave it to you. It would be a big problem if Huh Kyung-young found out.” So, he knew it was illegal, yet he stole it and submitted it to the police.
So, did Huh Kyung-young embezzle anything? Did he commit fraud? They took those videos and viewed them from their perspective. Was it right to take those videos like that? Because it was illegal evidence, everything investigated so far is invalid. The investigation must start again. Our fraud and embezzlement investigation must be redone. They probably used it for sexual harassment complaints here and there, but it is all invalid. The entire investigation of the case is illegal. All investigations are illegal. So, this must have been reported to the police agency. It was reported in the news. It was reported in several places. This was Sisa Magazine, and the previous one was Naewae Economic TV. It was reported in several places. Sisa Naewae Economic TV, and Sisa Magazine earlier. And JOBPOST. And Handmaker. And e-science. Anyway, it was reported in several places. It was reported in many places. Huh Kyung-young’s side claims the police investigation’s legitimacy is nonexistent, and everything is wrong. It must be redone. So, this was an enormous illegal act.
So, instead of finding the person who committed the illegal act, they committed an illegal act themselves. I never committed one. It is outrageous. So, you need to understand that I, the God-man, who gives these lectures, am not an ordinary person. I am the greatest religious leader in Korea’s history. I distributed many Bibles and Buddhist scriptures, translated scriptures. No one in Korea has distributed so many. Is there anyone who has provided free meals for 55 years? No. Even now, it costs 2 billion Korean Won a year. Is that a small amount of money? What did that person do? Do I have nothing else to do but engage in such activities? Why would someone who has continuously run for president commit illegal acts? If you commit illegal acts, you cannot run.
So, they suspect that person. I am someone who pursued these ideals. I have been realizing “illuminating illustrious virtue,” “loving the people,” and “resting in the highest good” since elementary school. Have I ever had a drink? Have I ever had coffee? Have I ever smoked a cigarette? What have I done? Have I ever had cola? Have I ever had cider? I only drank cold water. I saved money that way to help you with policies, running for president to address the low birth rate. Thirty years ago, when I advocated for it, everyone called me crazy. But that was the time. It was a time when we could stop it with a hoe. But now, even a plow cannot stop it.
Excluding the cities, the countryside is now entirely occupied by foreigners. It is scary to walk around at night. Do you understand? Why? They are all foreigners. When you see people coming out of vinyl house factories, they are foreigners. They do not communicate well. So, where are Koreans? They are all gathered in the cities. They have all left the provinces. In a few decades, it will be difficult to see Koreans in the countryside. When the elderly pass away, will their children stay there? Foreigners will occupy all those places. So, Koreans will be concentrated only in cities, and foreigners will farm and live in the provinces. I was the one who stepped forward 30 years ago to try and prevent this.
We have seen the God-man’s glorious chapter of memories, and his encounters with truly remarkable individuals. Please give a big round of applause to our God-man. Next, please display the free meal video.
While the free meal video is playing, display photographs of Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio. They need to see them. Why were those photographs not displayed? You should display the important ones. These videos of Cory Gardner and Marco Rubio will serve as future references. They should not be omitted. Marco Rubio is currently the Secretary of State. This is a photograph of me with Cory Gardner. This is a photograph with Marco Rubio. And there is a well-taken frontal photograph with Cory Gardner. This is a photograph with Cory Gardner. You know the chairman. Cory Gardner was photographed at that party. Marco Rubio and Marco Rubio’s video. Marco Rubio. This person is the mayor. He is the mayor of New York or some other city.
Why are we seeing a video of us on a plane? Not that one, but the one where I am looking sideways at someone. Here I am. “We have reached a point where we can no longer sustain ourselves with our own strength. We will not be able to pass on what we inherited to future generations. To overcome this situation, we must reconsider our existing methods. While maintaining the existing ideology and principles of the Republican Party, we need to rebuild our institutions and re-examine our thoughts on the Republican Party’s ideology. We must be prepared for a new government. For these reasons, I am very excited, and many people have told me that this person will win, and we support this person, and this person can win. He will be elected.”
Marco Rubio is Trump’s right-hand man. He became the Secretary of State this time. The Secretary of State is like the Minister of Foreign Affairs in our country. The Minister of Foreign Affairs travels the world. He rose to the position of representing Trump. Trump told me to meet him. So, I went and met him. Trump introduced us. These are bodyguards. The bodyguards were about 20 centimeters taller than Rubio. Taller than us. He was the top-ranked Republican presidential candidate among the senators. Trump was 16th. So, he had extensive connections within the US Republican Party. We were both Republicans, so we talked. It is interesting. Meeting such a person and having such an outcome is not easy.
No matter how many Korean members of the National Assembly go, they cannot meet the chairmen of the Senate committees. They are not always in Washington. They have schedules. So, to meet them, you have to make an appointment and they have to invite you. That is how you meet them. At that time, I was observing calmly. My characteristic is that I photograph well when the picture is taken properly. This is Rubio, and this is Trump. In the Republican Party, Rubio was first, and Trump was last. But the last-place candidate became president, and the first-place candidate became the Minister of Foreign Affairs. A truly strange thing happened. It was a remarkable event.
Now, our meal. My lunch with Cory Gardner. I was invited to lunch and went to the US. I am sitting here. And here is Cory Gardner, the chairman of the Senate Asia-Pacific Subcommittee. He talked with me and did not sign the document, which prevented a war with North Korea. That happened. I am here. The person from North Korea has their face covered. Here, covered. Cory Gardner is holding a meeting. Zoom in on his face. Zoom in closer. It looks like a battle. He is serious, and this person is from North Korea. Zoom in. The person in front is from North Korea. I am also sitting there.
They were going to invade North Korea the next day. All the US generals gathered in Hawaii. If Cory Gardner, the chairman of the Asia-Pacific Subcommittee, did not sign, the war budget would not be released. So, Cory Gardner was holding it back. Cory Gardner was also directly connected to Bush and Trump. And Marco Rubio was also directly connected. So, look at this person’s face. Zoom in. Cory Gardner has a very good impression, but look at his face at that time. Look at that face. I am also serious. I look like Hitler, and look at Cory Gardner’s face. This is the day before the war. It is outrageous. He has such a bright and handsome face. But at that time, his face was completely distorted, and so was mine. We were sitting there with all sorts of grim expressions while the North Korean person was speaking. This was when they were saying, “Let’s invade tomorrow.”
“Oh, no, we cannot,” they were saying. What did I say at that time? CVPE FVID. I advocated for FVID: Fully Verifiably Irreversibly Dismantle. And they advocated for Completely Verifiably Permanently Eliminate. Completely, completely, completely eliminate North Korea. Completely Verifiably. Not Irreversibly, but Permanently. Eliminate. Eliminate is not disposal; it is their own elimination. No, the US eliminates it.
So, CVP Permanently, Permanently, Permanently. Then Eliminate. Eliminate is removal. I advocated for Dismantle, disposal. I said let’s dispose of it, and the US said they would eliminate it. So, they would Permanently Eliminate it. But mine was not permanent. It ended with this buffer approach. It was a terrifying situation. Look at my expression at that time. Zoom in a bit more. Is it not terrifying? We are running out of time. It is interesting. My expression was bright then. My expression was gone then. It is interesting. Let’s hurry.
Yes, yes, Sky Temple promotional song. How should we do the promotional song?
What is next? Time. Yes, let’s shorten it. We cannot just play the recording without the singers. The singers only need to sing one verse each. One verse each. It is difficult to do one verse. Let’s hurry, one verse each. Kim Ji-yeon, Kang Ok-gi, Park Hyun-suk, Lee Dong-seop, in that order. Get up quickly. Time.
The level of 3,000 “mu” goes to the microphone. It goes not only to the singers but to all of you. It goes to your families too. I am giving a lot of levels because it is getting late. It would be better to receive all the levels the singers sang. Even if you are busy.
Today, we have seen the glorious chapter of the God-man’s memories, and his encounters with truly remarkable individuals. Please give a big round of applause to our respected and beloved God-man, who has deeply moved us today. Thank you.

- He emphasizes that sincere requests should come from the 衷 (Chung), the inner mind, rather than the superficial 心 (Sim).

- He states that everyone possesses all three minds, and how one perceives his photographs reflects the dominant mind at play.
-
Connection to “The Great Learning” (大學):
- He links these three minds to the core principles of “The Great Learning,” a classical Confucian text.
- 人心修道 (Insim Sudo): The human mind cultivates the Way, leading to the 衷 (Chung).
- 一神降衷 (Ilshin Gangchung): The inner mind is bestowed by a single God, representing a past-life consciousness or subconscious.
- 性通光明 (Seongtong Gwangmyeong): The essential mind connects with the light of heaven and earth, representing the mind of a sage.
- He then connects these to the Three Great Principles of “The Great Learning”:
- 明明之德 (Myeongmyeongjideok): Illuminating illustrious virtue, which corresponds to 性通光明, seeing everything clearly and brightly.
- 親民相生 (Chinmin Sangsaeng): Loving the people and fostering mutual growth, which relates to 衷 (Chung), thinking of others with one’s inner mind.
- 止於至善 (Jieo Jiseon): Resting in the highest good, which also aligns with 性通光明, striving for ultimate goodness.
- Manifestation of Will and Confrontation with Adversity
Huh Kyung-young asserts his ability to manifest his will and addresses recent legal challenges.
-
Manifesting Desires:
- He states that he can manifest his desires, whether it is raising funds for a presidential campaign or establishing the Sky Temple, simply by setting his mind to it.
- He attributes this rapid manifestation to divine intervention, which also brings forth “anti-forces” to act as brakes, preventing excessive speed.
-
Legal Challenges and Defense:
- He addresses a recent news report regarding a police investigation into his activities, where his legal team challenged the legitimacy of the evidence.
- He explains that a key piece of evidence, a hard drive containing his lecture videos, was illegally obtained and submitted to the police by an individual identified as “J.”
- His legal team argues that, according to Supreme Court precedents, evidence obtained without the owner’s consent is inadmissible, rendering any subsequent investigations based on it invalid.
- He asserts that the police’s use of this illegally acquired material and their alleged exaggeration of certain statements from his lectures constitute a clear violation of due process.
- He announces plans to file a lawsuit against “J” for special theft and to pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigative methods.
- He also suggests that “J” orchestrated a series of false accusations, including sexual harassment claims, by misleading others into signing documents.
- He concludes that the entire investigation is flawed due to the illegal evidence, necessitating a complete re-investigation.
- Enduring Service and Vision for the Nation
Huh Kyung-young reiterates his lifelong commitment to service and his long-standing concerns for the nation’s future.
-
A Life of Selfless Service:

- He questions why someone with his history of presidential candidacies and selfless service would engage in illegal activities.

- He states that his efforts to save money were aimed at developing policies to address national issues, such as the declining birthrate, a concern he raised 30 years ago when others dismissed him.
-
Warnings about Demographic Shifts:
- He warns about the current demographic crisis, where rural areas are increasingly populated by foreign workers, making it unsafe for Koreans at night.

Role in Preventing War:

-
Early Life and Extensive Philanthropic Endeavors
Huh Kyung-young recounts his extensive philanthropic activities from a young age, emphasizing his deep involvement in distributing religious texts. He states that he disseminated hundreds of thousands of Buddhist scriptures and Christian Bibles, often without charge. He asserts that if anyone possesses a Buddhist scripture or Christian Bible bearing his name as a donor, he would compensate them handsomely for its return. He explains that these texts, which he personally funded, were distributed during his youth, long before his public recognition. He estimates the value of these donated scriptures to be approximately 10 billion Korean Won each for Buddhist and Christian texts, totaling 20 billion Korean Won. This act of Dharma-dana (법보시), the giving of truth or teachings, was a significant part of his 55 years of continuous service, which also included providing free meals. He clarifies that these distributions were not random but targeted at religious gatherings and events, ensuring the texts reached those who would appreciate them. He contrasts his selfless giving with the pursuit of personal wealth, highlighting his unique path of service. He also mentions that during his youth, the illiteracy rate was high, around 80-90%, and these simplified versions of scriptures, comparable in size to a Bible, were distributed to help people understand religious teachings. These Buddhist scriptures, titled “Buddhist Sacred Texts (불교 성전)” and published by Dongguk University’s Institute for the Translation of Buddhist Scriptures, were distinct from the voluminous Tripitaka Koreana. He emphasizes that his early life was dedicated to such acts of service, distinguishing him from those who merely seek personal gain. -
Unprecedented Engagements with Religious and Political Leaders
Huh Kyung-young presents a series of photographs documenting his interactions with prominent figures across religious and political spheres, asserting that these encounters underscore his unique standing and influence. He recalls meeting with major leaders in Korean Buddhism and Christianity, including Reverend Cho Yong-gi of Yoido Full Gospel Church, and various other notable pastors such as Kim Pung-il and Ok Han-eum. He highlights a decades-old photograph with Reverend Cho, noting their identical floral arrangements, signifying a position of mutual respect. He also mentions his connection to Naesudong Church, where he claims to have been raised as a pastor’s son, gaining a profound understanding of Christianity that surpasses even that of current theology professors.
In the Buddhist community, he displays a photograph from a large Buddhist lantern parade in Yeouido, where he stood alongside the Supreme Patriarch of Sri Lanka, the Jogye Order’s President Kang Seok-ju, and the President of the National Buddhist Laymen’s Association, Professor Park Wan-il of Dongguk University. He emphasizes his central position in the photograph, asserting that it reflects his significant contributions to Korean Buddhism. He also shares images with former Jogye Order Presidents Oh Nok-won and Hwang Jin-gyeong, and former Dongguk University President Lee Jin-gwan, indicating his long-standing relationships with these influential figures.
Beyond religious leaders, Huh Kyung-young showcases photographs with former President Kim Dae-jung, taken years before his presidency, and with other political figures at significant national events, including a memorial service for former President Kim Young-sam, where he was seen alongside five other presidential candidates. He also presents images with former President Lee Myung-bak, and members of former President Park Chung-hee’s family, including Park Geun-hye, Park Seo-young, and Park Ji-man, as well as Park Jun-hong, Park Chung-hee’s nephew. He recounts an event where he sat at the main table with Park Geun-hye, who was then the chairwoman of the Korea Racing Authority, and describes her unusually bright smile and extended hand in greeting, suggesting a special connection. He also shares a photograph with former U.S. Ambassador to Korea Han Seung-soo and an IOC President at New York Airport, further illustrating his international network. These photographs, he claims, serve as irrefutable evidence of his extensive and influential past, challenging any skepticism about his identity or activities.
- The Essence of Gold and the Purity of the Soul
Huh Kyung-young delves into the metallurgy of gold, drawing a profound analogy between the refining process of precious metals and the purification of the human soul. He explains the distinctions between Jeonggeum (정금), or pure gold, and Sunggeum (순금), both signifying 99.9% pure gold, which is equivalent to 24K. He then contrasts this with 18K gold, which contains about 70% gold, and 14K gold, with approximately 45% gold, the remainder being alloys like brass.
He recounts his personal experience working in a gold factory during his high school years, where he learned the intricate process of creating these alloys. He describes how large gold ingots were precisely cut and mixed with specific proportions of brass to achieve the desired karat. The melting process, he explains, involved intense heat, during which dark, bluish smoke—impurities—would rise. He vividly recalls the constant nosebleeds he suffered due to inhaling these toxic fumes, which contained cyanide. The factory floor was covered with tatami mats to collect any gold dust, which would later be incinerated to recover the precious metal.
He narrates a pivotal moment when he was “expelled” from the factory due to a missing gold ring, an incident he now views as divine intervention. He believes that if he had continued working there, he would have succumbed to lung cancer from the constant exposure to cyanide. This experience, though harsh, taught him the value of purity and the dangers of impurities, both in metal and in life. He describes how the molten gold, once all impurities were removed, would become as clear as glass. He emphasizes that any remaining impurities would cause the finished gold rings to break, highlighting the necessity of thorough purification. This arduous work, performed by dedicated laborers in harsh conditions, instilled in him a deep respect for their perseverance and sacrifice, drawing a parallel to the struggles of the working class and the importance of understanding their plight.
- The Three Minds: Heart, Soul, and Nature
Huh Kyung-young introduces a philosophical framework centered on three distinct aspects of the human mind: Geotmaeum (겉마음), the superficial or outer mind; Sokmaeum (속마음), the inner or true heart; and Bonmaeum (본마음), the fundamental nature or original mind. He illustrates this concept by explaining the proper way to express a heartfelt request. He asserts that merely saying “I sincerely request (진심으로 간청합니다)” is incorrect because Jinsim (진심), sincerity, originates from the outer mind. Instead, one should use Chungsim (충심), meaning “from the true heart (衷心으로 간청합니다),” which signifies a request stemming from the inner mind. He clarifies that this Chung (衷) character, representing the inner mind, is distinct from the Chung (忠) character used for loyalty, which is typically directed towards a monarch.
He further categorizes individuals based on these mental states: Sogin (속인), ordinary people, operate primarily from the outer mind; Doin (도인), spiritual practitioners, utilize the inner mind; and Shinin (신인), God-men, embody the fundamental nature. He states that everyone possesses all three aspects within them, leading to diverse interpretations of his own photographs, as each person views them through their unique mental lens.
He connects these concepts to ancient Korean philosophical texts, specifically the Cheonbugyeong (천부경), which speaks of Insimsudo (인심수도), the human mind cultivating the Way; Ilshingangchung (일신강충), the descent of the one God-man’s inner mind; and Seongtonggwangmyeong (성통광명), the nature communicating with cosmic light. He explains that the human mind requires cultivation to reach the inner mind, which is a pre-existent, karmic mind from past lives, akin to the subconscious. The fundamental nature, however, is connected to the cosmic light, representing the mind of a God-man.
He then links these three minds to the Daehak (대학), or Great Learning, a foundational text in Confucianism. The Great Learning’s three cardinal principles are Myeongmyeongjideok (명명지덕), illuminating illustrious virtue; Chinminsangsaeng (친민상생), loving the people and fostering mutual growth; and Jieojiseon (지어지선), resting in the highest good. He equates Seongtonggwangmyeong with Myeongmyeongjideok, emphasizing the importance of seeing everything clearly and brightly. Chinminsangsaeng corresponds to the inner mind, advocating for genuine connection and mutual benefit, recognizing that all beings are interconnected. Finally, Jieojiseon aligns with the fundamental nature, striving for the ultimate good in all actions. He concludes that understanding these three minds provides a comprehensive framework for comprehending human existence and spiritual development.
- The God-man’s Manifestation and Cosmic Influence
Huh Kyung-young asserts that his existence as a God-man (신인) transcends ordinary human capabilities, enabling him to manifest his will and influence cosmic events. He claims that his past, filled with extensive service and unique experiences, is merely a prelude to his current role. He states that he can effortlessly generate vast sums of money for presidential campaigns or establish the Sky Temple (하늘궁) from nothing, simply by setting his intention. He recounts how he arrived at his current location with empty hands after being released from prison, yet quickly transformed the entire area into the Sky Temple, demonstrating the rapid manifestation of his desires.
He describes a critical moment where his intervention prevented a war with North Korea. He recounts a meeting with U.S. Senator Cory Gardner, then Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on East Asia, the Pacific, and International Cybersecurity Policy, and a North Korean representative. He explains that a U.S. invasion of North Korea was imminent, with military generals gathered in Hawaii. However, Senator Gardner’s refusal to sign off on the war budget, influenced by Huh Kyung-young’s arguments, averted the conflict. He contrasts the U.S. proposal of “Completely, Verifiably, Permanently Eliminate (CVPE)” North Korea’s nuclear program with his own advocacy for “Fully, Verifiably, Irreversibly Dismantle (FVID),” emphasizing a path of peaceful dismantlement over aggressive elimination. He highlights the gravity of the situation, noting the serious expressions on everyone’s faces, including his own, during the tense discussions.
He also mentions his connection with Marco Rubio, whom he describes as Donald Trump’s right-hand man and the current Secretary of State. He states that Trump himself introduced him to Rubio, underscoring his direct access to high-level U.S. political figures. He emphasizes that such meetings are not easily arranged for ordinary Korean politicians, as these U.S. senators have demanding schedules and require specific invitations. He concludes that these extraordinary events are not coincidental but are orchestrated by his divine will, demonstrating his profound influence on global affairs and his commitment to peace and the well-being of humanity.

Conclusion & Strategic / Philosophical Implications
The lecture concludes with a strong affirmation of Huh Kyung-young’s divine status and his lifelong dedication to public service, despite facing skepticism and legal challenges. The strategic implication is that his actions and influence transcend conventional human understanding and political maneuvering.

What is Huh Kyung-young’s perspective on the different levels of human consciousness and their connection to the “Sky Temple” philosophy?
Question: What are the different levels of human consciousness according to Huh Kyung-young, and how do they relate to his “Sky Temple” philosophy and understanding of the universe?
Answer: Huh Kyung-young categorizes human consciousness into three levels: 겉마음 (Geot-ma-eum), the superficial or outer mind of ordinary people (속인 – Sok-in); 속마음 (Sok-ma-eum), the inner mind of spiritual practitioners (도인 – Do-in); and 본마음 (Bon-ma-eum), the true or original mind of a God-man (신인 – Shin-in). He explains that the outer mind is driven by worldly desires, the inner mind is connected to past lives and subconscious, while the true mind is aligned with the “light of heaven and earth” (성통광명 – Seong-tong-gwang-myeong). He links these to the three great principles of Daehak (Great Learning): 명명지덕 (Myeong-myeong-ji-deok) (brightening one’s bright virtue), 친민상생 (Chin-min-sang-saeng) (loving the people and coexisting), and 지어지선 (Ji-eo-ji-seon) (abiding in the highest good), suggesting that true understanding and action stem from the true mind.
Key Quote: “The outer mind, the inner mind, the true mind. This is what I’m talking about. The true mind is the mind of a God-man.” -

He claims that when he decides to pursue a goal, like running for president or building the Sky Temple, the necessary resources and circumstances materialize quickly, almost as if by divine intervention. He contrasts this with ordinary individuals who might struggle with financial or logistical challenges, implying that his status as a God-man allows him to transcend such limitations.
Key Quote: “If I make up my mind, heaven moves. I’ll run for president this time. I need 10 billion won. Then I can make it.” -
What is Huh Kyung-young’s stance on current societal issues, particularly the declining birthrate and rural depopulation in Korea?
Question: What is Huh Kyung-young’s stance on current societal issues, particularly the declining birthrate and rural depopulation in Korea, and what solutions does he propose?
Answer: Huh Kyung-young expresses deep concern about Korea’s declining birthrate and the resulting depopulation of rural areas, which he claims he warned about 30 years ago. He states that rural areas are increasingly being settled by foreign populations, leading to a future where Korean people will be concentrated only in cities, and the countryside will be predominantly occupied by non-Koreans. He views this as a critical national issue that he attempted to address decades ago, but his warnings were dismissed. He implies that his policies are designed to reverse these trends and ensure the future of the Korean nation.
Key Quote: “Thirty years ago, when I argued that we must eliminate this low birthrate, no one said I wasn’t crazy. But that was the time to stop it with a hoe. Now, even with a plow, it won’t stop.” -

Question: What is Huh Kyung-young’s response to legal challenges and accusations against him, particularly regarding the legality of evidence collection by authorities?
Answer: Huh Kyung-young’s legal team is challenging the legitimacy of police investigations, arguing that key evidence, specifically a hard disk containing his lecture videos, was illegally obtained. They claim that an individual named J stole the hard disk from his office and submitted it to the police without his consent. Citing a Supreme Court precedent, his team asserts that electronic information seized without the owner’s consent violates warrant principles and due process, rendering both the original evidence and any secondary evidence derived from it inadmissible. He plans to sue J for special theft and pursue legal action against the police for their unlawful investigation methods.
Key Quote: “The police utilized it without sufficient review. To utilize this, they must obtain my permission.”
