Hwandangogi: A real preservence of History of Ancient Korea 


The Japanese Colonial Government burned down 200,000 Korean Historical documents and distorted the true History of Korea. Yet Korean History was preserved by the Independence Movement fighters of Korea in "Manchuria".


Culture is the most precious thing, it is the greatest treasure. But forgetting our own culture, the true culture is the most unfortunate thing that can happen to us Humans. Distortion of history and changing the history and culture would lead us to the wrong path of living our lives. Such an incident happened with Korea. The History and spirituality of ancient Korea have been destroyed in the past 100 years in the Japanese Colonial Era. The Japanese not only rewrote Korean history but also reflected Korea as the Colony of Japan and China, which is totally nonsense, a great myth. The Ancient Baedal nation is known as The Hongshan Culture. Japanese people have not only destroyed history but also destroyed the Book which was the perseverance of ancient culture and true ideologies named "Hwandangogi". Japan and China claim themselves to be the oldest nation but they are not, the oldest civilization of Humans was from Ancient Korea. Unfortunately people are still not aware of Korean True Culture and their huge impact on the world. 

If we look at an epic song "The Kushnameh" which was written 1,500 years ago in Persia, the song had beautifully declared once Korea was a Paradise on the earth. Some estimates also claim that a significant Persian population emigrated to ancient Korea. It shows a deep connection between Western Culture and Eastern Culture of Korea. 


HawandanGogi is the Greatest treasure of Asia: Kashima Noboru (A Japanese lawyer) [1925-2001]

A Japanese edition of Hwandangogi was published in the 1980s by a Japanese lawyer, Kashima Noboru. Kashima wrote "Hwandangogi is a unique book that provides a comprehensive understanding of every dimension of life, including politics, language, customs and religions and Hwandangogi is the greatest treasure of Asia." The book reveals the origin of almost all branches of human Knowledge and elucidates the exact chronology of the Korean states and dynasties originating from Hwanguk, which existed nine thousand years ago.  Moreover it contains the sacred writings of the oldest form of religious traditions from which all religions and spirituality around the globe derived. Hwandangogi guides the readers of Hwanguk and the secrets of the Primordial Golden Age of East Asia. 


Hwandangogi: An unification of Heaven,  Earth and Humanity.

Hwandangogi; a symphony of Cosmic History of this universe, which was performed by Samsins who reside within the radiance of Heaven and Earth and unites with three fundamentals; Heaven,  Earth and Humanity. It is the root of human civilization, their ideas, cosmology,  spirituality and governing principles. The Hwandangogi not only embodies the thread of Humanity but also is an original root of all beings in the universe, which also shows the righteous way to explore the true culture, where all beings can lead their independent lives in Cosmic Harmony. It is a historical text that highlights the origins of World's Human Civilization and also reveals the Lost History of Korea. It also revealed the origin of almost all tye branches of human knowledge. 


Hwandangogi contains a unique History of Human Civilization, and the only purpose for making the world such a place where people live in Harmony with righteousness. It is the original text of lost ancient human civilization and culture which reveals the source of wisdom of human civilization and culture and also the history of ancient people. It is the original scripture source of all spiritualities, ideologies and all religions across the world. 



The most precious values of Hwandangogi represents a compilation of historical accounts about the ancient people who lived under the radiance of Heaven and Earth. 


Hwandan means the radiance of Heaven and Earth. 

Gogi means old records. 

  


Hwan is the nucleus of History and culture of Humanity. "The pure life without limitation and extends infinitely is Hwan".  Hwan is the  'radiance of Heaven'  while Dan is the 'radiance of Earth'.

Hwandangogi is the story of the radiance of Heaven and Earth, which includes all the core subjects of life, enlightenment, prayer, discipline and truth within it. This radiance of Heaven and Earth exists within the humans, in each of us as Han. 

Han is the cosmic radiance of Heaven and Earth which resides in our bodies, minds and spirits, and represents all members of Humanity across the Globe as one "Dae-Han" (the Great Han) . Whatever occupation or interest one pursues whether it's humanities, arts, music, science or  if we are a poet, musician, or nature observer, whoever we are if truly understands Hwandangogi then, we will be able to experience unlimited joy and will become united with radiance of this vast universe and sanctity of life. 

Hwandangogi compiles all domains of human culture and all branches of study whether it is mathematics, astronomy, science, philosophy, religion, linguistics, lifestyle, or the origin of contemporary political culture. 

Hwandangogi was first published in 1911, by a  man named Gye Yeon- su , who compiled five books written by five authors over a lengthy span of a thousand years. It contains sacred writings of the oldest form of religious traditions from which all religions and spirituality around the globe derived. 



Compilation of Hwandangogi as five historical records are: 


Samseonggi Volume 1 written by An Ham- ro 

Samseonggi Volume 2 written by Won Dong - jung 

Dangun Segi by Yi Am 

Bukbuyeogi by  Beom Jang 

Taebaek Ilsa by Yi Maek .


Two leaders of the Korean resistance army, Hong Beom do ( 1868 - 1943 ) and Oh Dong jin (1889 - 1944), spent their pocket money to print thirty copies of Hwandangogi. 


Core values of Hwandangogi.  

Hwandangogi conveys the root practices of the oldest original culture, " Meditation Culture ", the message of enlightenment and self healing. The core value of Hwandangogi is Hwan, the radiance.  The central idea is that the book Hwandangogi will be summarised by a single character : (Hwan) meaning 'light' or 'illumination' .  


Hwan represents our innate nature, eternal bliss, the recovery of which is what we live for. Hwan symbolises the divinity within each one of us. It has been the timeless theme of teachings of different religions and cultures for many millennia. A person who has completely actualized the Divine light Hwan within themselves has been described throughout history using the term tae-il ( the great oneness), meaning a person who has attained the great oneness with Heaven and Earth. Only those who have achieved knits with Heaven and Earth can truly foster far reaching benefits for all humanity (Hong-ik-ingan) . Some Korean terms describe this concept including tae-il ( a person with ultimate oneness) and daehan ( a person who has realised great inner elegance) . 


The Hwandangogi in essence transmits the fundamental mind and the history encompassing Buddhism, Confucianism, and Christianity. Because whatever is in existence is directly flows from the teaching of Hwandangogi. 


The Hwandangogi is solely a historical record and can restore Korea's forgotten past, a vanished national spirit with distorted values. Hwandangogi is the only historical work that can reveal the truth of Korea's Past and can restore the original form of Korea's ravaged history. Hwandangogi states the complete record of History of True Human Origin and first human civilization arose 9,000 years ago.

Hwandangogi compiles the culture of Heavenly Emblems, the culture of Cheonbugyeong  and contains all systems of philosophy & culture that elucidate the origin human civilization and Korean Nation. 


A description from Hwandangogi Records states: 


Hwanin lived long ago and descended to Mt. Tianshan, where he dwelled and presided over offering rituals to God in Heaven. Hwanin not only cared for his people but also governed all worldly matters. It was the time when People did not distinguish between close one's or distant one's, nor did they get discriminated against with high or low status. A period where men and women possessed equal rights also both young and old carried with them their appropriate duties. The world was a place where people lived in Harmony and righteousness, though there were no laws and decree. 


" Hwandangogi Records obtain a complete picture of the ancient world, and it is very important to study the ideas, which ancient people had about the universe and the work they do in accordance. Only by understanding people's cosmological views, we can gain a full insight into the real notations of God and their existence, the worlds of humans and spirits, the inner divinity of Human beings."

According to Hwandangogi, Koreans came to be 6,000 years ago when the "Hwan Clan" ( the enlightened people from heaven) united with the Bear Clan of Korean Peninsula and Manchuria. Its proof can easily be found in the Goddess temple of Hongshan Culture,  Bear paws can still be found in Goddess temple. 



The ancient records states,  The Hwanguk nation existed long ago. Hwanung of Seojabu aspired to save all under Heaven and bring deliverance to the human world. Perceiving his son's aspiration, " Hwanin the ruler of Hwanguk", gazed upon Mt. Sanwei and Mt. 8Taebaeksan deemed them worthy of bestowing for the fostering of wide reaching benefits for humanity. Hwanin granted his son Hwanung , The Heavenly Emblems and Seal the Three Treasures then sent him forth to rule this region. Hwanung led a group of three thousand subjects and descended to the Foot of Sindansu on the summit of Mt. Taebaeksan, named this place Sinsi (Divine City) and he himself was called "Heavenly Emperor Hwanung". Hwanung led the Pungbaek, Usa and Unsa as well as ministries of agriculture, imperial decrees, law, health, and morality over 360 realms of human affairs. He ruled and enlightened the people of the world with the truth of Spirit Teaching. He also teaches the true meditation culture to the Bear Clan and Tiger Clan, where the Queen of Bear Clan fulfilled the meditation culture of 100 days and got enlightened after 21 days, and attained an ideal Human form. She practises meditation everyday under the sindansu tree, later Hwanung married her and they have been blessed with a son, named Dangun Wanggeom.  Dangun Wanggeom  named his nation "Joseon". It states that true meditation culture was the ancient culture and it also delivered a spiritual message to the world.
