He suggests that the pandemic, despite its negative aspects, offers a valuable lesson in hygiene and a realization of the power of the unseen world .
He contrasts the fear and impermanence of Earth, which he calls a “training ground,” with the eternal and infinite nature of Baekgung, where cells do not die .

He stresses that the invisible world, like viruses, is more formidable than visible threats like tigers, and it dictates human destiny .

He describes how, in old age, people realize the futility of their past struggles and the emptiness of their achievements .
He refers to this state as “Jeondo Mongsang” (顛倒夢想), a Buddhist concept meaning an inverted dream or illusion, where people mistakenly believe their perceptions are correct .
He explains that this leads to people acting as “fake judges,” making judgments about others, and that even the realization of “Jeondo Mongsang” is an illusion .
He urges people to stop acting as fake judges, referencing the Buddhist concept of “Three Marks of Existence” (삼법인) .
He explains that “Jebeopmua” (諸法無我), one of the Three Marks, means that all judgments, like “coronavirus is bad,” lack a true “self,” only a false one .

He asserts that he is the one who directly bestows the Holy Spirit, and that people should seriously consider his presence on Earth .

He concludes that those who call him crazy are themselves crazy, due to “Jeondo Mongsang” .
He quotes the Diamond Sutra, stating that all worldly phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, shadows, dew, and lightning .

He discusses his relationship with singer Choi Sarang, who sang his songs for over a year and lived with him for several months .
He explains that their age difference (26 years) led to personality clashes and a generational gap, causing him to stop her from singing his songs .
He admits that this decision caused trouble and their eventual separation, but he considers it a valuable experience for him as a divine being .
He states that this experience helped him maintain neutrality and understand the mindset of younger people .
He clarifies that Choi Sarang is not a “flower snake” (꽃뱀 – a woman who extorts money from men) and that people should not spread such rumors, as it hinders her progress .

#3 (00:54:50) Traffic Laws and Infrastructure
Lee Se-wook, a YouTube car channel operator, asks Heo Kyeong-young about the discrepancy between advanced car technology and increasingly strict traffic laws, suggesting that speed limits on highways should be relaxed like Germany’s Autobahn .
Heo Kyeong-young explains that the Autobahn, built by Hitler with a 5-meter deep gravel base, allows cars to travel at 400 km/h without issues .
He contrasts this with Korean highways, which have only 50 cm of gravel, making high speeds dangerous and prone to accidents .
He attributes Korea’s strict speed limits to its relatively new car culture and the large number of inexperienced drivers, especially women, who could cause major accidents if speeds were higher .
He proposes that if he becomes president, he would change all traffic lights on national roads (국도) to flashing lights, eliminating full stops .
He argues that frequent stops cause excessive exhaust fumes and fuel waste, and that drivers should simply slow down and check for pedestrians .
He criticizes current traffic officials for inconveniencing citizens and wasting time with unnecessary stops .
He emphasizes that children should be taught to check for cars before crossing, rather than blindly trusting traffic lights, as this can lead to accidents .
He states that he would implement a system where children are taught not to trust traffic lights and to always check for cars, and that all traffic lights on national roads would be flashing .
#4 (01:03:00) Afterlife and Spirits
Heo Kyeong-young is asked if women who committed suicide for chastity in the Joseon Dynasty become ghosts .
He confirms that those who commit suicide, especially with resentment, become ghosts, meaning they cannot immediately receive a new body and must wait indefinitely .
He explains that if they wait too long, they might be reborn as animals like pigs or cows, unable to communicate with their former families .
He clarifies that “ghosts” (귀신) are spirits that cannot return to a body, and that Korea has many such spirits .
He explains that sound requires a medium (like air) to travel, so it cannot be heard in space, but light, being non-material, can travel through a vacuum .
He states that his energy, like light, can instantly connect to anyone on Earth, regardless of distance or obstacles .
He explains that ghosts are like light, not sound, and that when a person dies, their “hon” (혼 – soul) leaves the body as a light energy, weighing 0.04g .
He states that if this “hon” cannot immediately receive a new body in Baekgung, it must wait indefinitely, becoming a “mansin” (만신 – shamanic deity) after 5,000 years or entering a shaman after 10,000 years .
He mentions historical figures like Zhang Fei and General Choi Young whose spirits are believed to be active as “janggunnim” (장군님 – general) in shamanism .
He describes how shamans possessed by such spirits speak in their voices and can perform feats like walking on sharp blades .
He asserts that those who do not die a natural death receive divine punishment, and that suicide, even for chastity, is a violation of heavenly law .
He criticizes the historical practice of women committing suicide to follow their husbands or avoid rape, calling it a form of enslavement and a misunderstanding of chastity .
He argues that such acts are not virtuous and that one should not sacrifice their life, especially if they have children, for outdated notions of honor .
He compares this to people who refuse money because they are not yet desperate enough .
He recounts Sakyamuni’s last meal, where he ate spoiled mushrooms given by a man named Chunda, and how Sakyamuni forgave Chunda, taking responsibility for his own death .
He states that those who die from the “momentary virus” will be reborn as humans, as long as they did not take their own lives .
He clarifies that even those who die normally can be reborn as animals .
#5 (01:15:00) Political Reforms and Voting
Heo Kyeong-young addresses a concern about a pro-China government bringing in Chinese citizens to influence elections .
He dismisses this, stating that foreign residents enter legally and their numbers are not enough to sway elections .
He highlights the impact of lowering the voting age to 18, which added 600,000 new voters, potentially shifting election outcomes in close races .
He advocates for lowering the voting age further to 14, arguing that middle schoolers are politically aware due to the internet and would hold politicians accountable .
He proposes that voting participation be recorded and used for college admissions and job applications, incentivizing civic engagement .
He suggests that this would teach children the importance of democracy and encourage them to form youth voter associations, influencing political discourse .
He reiterates that voting participation should be a key factor in employment, especially for civil servants .
He proposes giving voters 50,000 won as a “voting allowance” to encourage participation, making voting a fun and educational family activity .
He jokes that lowering the voting age to 14 would benefit him politically .
#6 (01:22:00) Divine Name and Heavenly Realms
Heo Kyeong-young is asked if his name, “Heo Kyeong-young,” is the same in Baekgung .
He explains that “Heo Kyeong-young” is an Earth-specific code name, and he has no name in Baekgung .
He states that while people who know him can call him “Heo Kyeong-young” in Baekgung, his true name there is in an unpronounceable heavenly language .
He clarifies that “Heo Kyeong-young” is the universal pronunciation for “God” across the cosmos, but not in Baekgung, where there are no surnames .
He explains that Baekgung has its own unique language and culture, which he cannot fully disclose yet .
He differentiates between “Haneulgung” (Sky Palace) on Earth, which is the “Blue Sky,” and “Baekgung” (White Palace), which is “The Kingdom of Heaven” or “White Heaven” .
He states that using his Baekgung name on Earth would disrupt the energy flow .
#7 (01:25:00) Health and Family Issues
Heo Kyeong-young is asked about the benefits of alkaline ionized water for modern people with acidic bodies .
He recommends alkaline ionized water as beneficial but states that natural water from the ground or tap water is best, as long as it’s not boiled .
He addresses a listener’s plea about a younger brother planning to marry despite financial struggles, causing family distress and talk of suicide .
He highlights the severity of the situation, where a family faces homelessness due to marriage expenses .
He reiterates his 30-year-old promise to give 100 million won for marriage and claims responsibility for the current 300,000 won elderly allowance .
He criticizes the government for spending trillions on gender equality and birth policies without directly supporting marriage or childbirth .
He refers to a JoongAng Ilbo editorial titled “The Next President Will Be the One Who Advocates Free Marriage,” which discussed the financial burden of marriage and the public’s longing for his policies .
He emphasizes that the editorial, written by Lee Cheol-ho, the chief editorial writer, reflects the true sentiments of the public and acknowledges the significance of his marriage policies .
He mentions another editorial by Lee Cheol-ho titled “Ah, the Beloved Heo Bon-jwa,” which praised him and criticized other presidential candidates .
He states that his policies are recognized by intellectuals and that his marriage pledge is highly impactful .
He asks for a cartoon depicting his “Three-Three Policy” .
#8 (01:35:00) Disability Policies and O-Ring Test
Heo Kyeong-young explains that he plans to establish a Disability Agency under the Ministry of Health and Welfare due to the large number of people becoming disabled from traffic accidents .
He states that this agency would provide systematic care, and while the national dividend would cover living expenses, it would also improve transportation and support for wheelchairs .
He promises that disabled individuals in the third grade (3급), who currently don’t receive pensions, would also receive them .
He clarifies that the term “basic livelihood recipient” (기초생활수급자) would disappear with the implementation of the national dividend .
He shows a cartoon depicting his “Three-Three Revolution” policies, including political, party, marriage, and old-age reforms .
He addresses a question about the O-ring test and why angels leave when asked certain questions .
He demonstrates the O-ring test, explaining that the “fundamental energy” (근본 에너지) is a strong, innate energy that can be tested .
He claims that he can remove this fundamental energy from anyone .
He demonstrates how the O-ring test can determine if a color is suitable for a person, with unsuitable colors causing a loss of strength .
He explains that the O-ring test for “fundamental energy” is separate from “angel energy” and does not involve angels .
He demonstrates that when asking an angel a “nonsensical” question, like “Should I divorce?” or “Should I have 10 more sons?”, the angel leaves, causing the O-ring test to fail .
He states that he can restore the angel’s presence .
He explains that angels can be consulted for important life decisions, like marriage or moving, as they know the future .
He thanks the audience for their applause .
He reiterates the difference between the O-ring test and the angel energy test, emphasizing that the latter requires addressing the angel directly .
#9 (01:45:00) Closing Remarks and Blessings
Heo Kyeong-young asks the audience to close their eyes .
He explains that coming to Haneulgung increases one’s “level,” which is a system of hierarchy in Baekgung, unlike the Earth’s system of ability-based discrimination .
He states that the level in Baekgung depends on the good deeds performed on Earth, influencing one’s appearance and position in the various Baekgung realms .
He emphasizes that attending Haneulgung, especially during the coronavirus pandemic, significantly raises one’s level, more than a hundred visits at other times .
He encourages people to raise their level through future elections if they missed the current one .
He contrasts Haneulgung with other religious facilities, stating that only here can one directly receive the Holy Spirit and consult angels for accurate guidance .
He considers receiving an angel a great honor .
He blesses those who came to Haneulgung despite the coronavirus, stating that their courage has earned them special favor from Baekgung, and all their problems will be resolved .
He commands angels to resolve all financial, health, family, and personal issues, including real estate problems, children’s advancement, employment, and even physical appearance .
He asks if there are any other needs, offering to provide more .
He commands angels to resolve unpaid wages, livelihood issues, and household financial problems .
