- How Can the Work of Heaven and Earth Be That Easy?
- 1 Sahng-jeh-nim often said, “The work will be completed soon. It is almost done now.”
- 2 One day, looking up at the sky, He said to Himself, “One side has turned away, and so harmony has not been achieved. It was almost complete on all sides, but one side became anxious and disheartened.”
- 3 Not understanding what this was about, Ho-yun jumped in, “If it is done quickly, everything should be all right. Why is it like that?”
- 4 Sahng-jeh-nim sighed. “Harmony has not been achieved among people due to insignificant matters. How can the work of heaven and earth be that easy? Silly child!”
- (JSD Dojeon 5,140)
