EASTERN LEARNING DONGHAK AND HOGIK INGAN [PART -2]

Karl Marx and his Communism Ideology focused on Social Equality


According to Marx, capitalism is a system in which the means of production are privately owned and the products of labor are sold in the market for profit. This leads to a division of society into two classes: the bourgeoisie (capitalist class) who own the means of production and exploit the proletariat (working class) who sell their labor to survive. [Social polarization is still deepening]
Marx believed that social equality could only be achieved through the abolition of capitalism and the establishment of a communist society. In a communist society, the means of production are owned collectively by the people, and the products of labor are distributed based on need, rather than for profit. This would eliminate the exploitation of the working class and create a society of social equality.
Marx's theory of social equality and communism has been highly influential in shaping socialist and communist movements around the world.

Small thing creating a big impact like, it divided Korea into north and south: which as we all know led to various conflicts and maybe a war but we all hope that things stay calm.


"I will destine the grand tides of the world through the spiritual qi of an auspicious site known as Five Immortals Playing Baduk, where two immortals contest a match, two offer advice, and one is the master of the game." -Jeung San Do Dojeon 5:5-

What is GOD?

God is the one who governs all things based on the objective and absolute principles of nature. The Although many people have different views of the world, It is accepted knowledge that morning follows night and that spring comes after winter.
Scientists contend that the universe operates on a cyclical model, where a new star is born and an old star dies in a manner like that of humanity, where the birth of a baby takes place alongside the death of an older person. One may say that birth and death are not really separate, but form components of a cycle like day and night.
What is it, however, that gives this process its momentum? Are such events the manifestations of Natural Law, Cosmic Cycles, or the Will of God?
Choe Su-un and his Donghak Ideology corrected the errors of Christian theology and clearly presented the image of God who governs all things based on the laws of the universe (Cosmology).
-From Preface, Asian Millenarianism by Hong Beom Rhee

In 1860, I heard the following: "The people of the West who appeared in the peaceful East do not pursue riches, but they think that it is God's will to attack and take possession of the world. That's why they diligently build a church and preach the way of God. After hearing such a story, I also wondered how it could be like that. I doubted whether it could be so."
-Donggyeong Daejeon, ("Scripture of Eastern Learning")-

Choe Su-un received enlightenment directly from Heavenly Father, Sangjenim. On May 25, 1860, Choe Su-un experienced a direct encounter with Heavenly Father, Sange. Belief in Sangenim has a nine-thousand-year history stretching back to the Hwanguk era. In answer to his years of practice of abstinence and prayer, Choe Su-un received enlightenment and was endowed with a mission to inform humanity of the coming new world.

This marked the birth of the Donghak movement. This movement rapidly spread the belief that a new era was about to be initiated by the Father in Heaven. The Donghak incantation known as the Sicheonjuju Mantra expresses this concept.
According to Donghak, the Heavenly Father would usher in a new era wherein the "Supreme Dao (Way) of the Boundless would emerge and flourish. The Golden Age enjoyed during the Hwanguk period was about to be revived.

The fate of the mysterious disease spreading across the entire world

This new era would arrive via a great shift of the cosmic order called "gaebyeok" in the Korean language. Donghak's scriptures decreed, "The fate of the mysterious disease spreading across the entire world -is this not once again gaebyeok?"
This was a proclamation that gaebyeok was imminent and that it would trigger outbursts of negative energies that had accrued in the spirit realm throughout history, which would ultimately put an end to every form of violence, hatred, and aggression. These outbursts would manifest in the physical world as the catastrophic outbreak of a pandemic spanning the globe.

As proclaimed by Donghak, we are now facing the new era called the Later Heaven. The Later Heaven will be an era of maturation and unification and of a greater level of fulfillment and completion, symbolized by the number ten or by the season autumn. In that new era, life's true meaning will be found by attaining great unity (tae-il).

The Taeeulju Mantra is a tool that leads one to a unity.The concept of Taceal (Tae-10 holds the key to finding the secret way of attaining great unity. Jeung San Do, the true heir of the Donghak movement, has this concept within our mantra. The Taceuliu Mantra Is a tool that leads one to a unity. This sacred verbal formula, when repeated in prayer, meditation, enables one to realize their inherent nature as tae-il. Through continuous practice, they experience themselves as beings in a state of unity with heaven and earth.

Chanting of the Taeeulju Mantra

4. Two current great revolutions for a new era: rapid technological revolution happening along with a spiritual revolution

道術 Dao mastery in the East
技術 Technology in the West

So the collaboration of these two lead to revolution that is going on, it may not be so popular but the work in this stream is going on very speedily.

The Singularity - We are already living in the singularity. We are living in a cosmic level of transition time.


The culture of enlightenment into all matters will open soon. The rebirth of the body; creation-transformation, enlightenment into all matters. Great dao mastery through the knowing of the mind dawns, so open the door to the deepest recess of the mind so that everyone, one and all, becomes a new human being. The rebirth of heaven and the rebirth of earth have concluded, so the rebirth of humanity shall now be paramount.
-Jeung San Do Dojeon 11:157-
and also enlightment is all about conection and communication.

Cosmic Autumn Approaches

The dream of humanity will be achieved by the Autumn Gaebyeok. It is time to renew our mind and body through meditation. Join us to face a new era by brightening your mind and body.

一神降衷 (Ilshin Gangchung)
Samsin bestowed upon humanity its true mind.

性通光明 (Seongtong Gwangmyeong)
Humanity’s nature is thus as radiant as that of Samsin.

在世理化 (Jaese lhwa)
You must rule the world with the truth of Spirit Teaching to edify people.

弘益人間 (Hongik Ingan)
You must also foster wide-reaching benefits for humanity.

Observing all this leads to a better world. And we need to keep things a little more manageable and happy, perform yoga and chant the mantras like the Taeeulju Mantra and the Sicheonjuju Mantra.

This is the essence of lecture which Mr. Lee Sang Kyu provided to all the people joining the 7th online seminar of season 2 of HACD.
