- Everyone Will Have Descendants
- 1 In Wun-pyung Village, Sahng-jeh-nim summoned great spirits of heaven and earth for a work of renewal.
- 2 There was a spirit in a corner of the room who seemed to have suffered from long neglect. Sahng-jeh-nim said, “Tell Me what you desire most.”
- 3 The spirit replied, “Those who have children receive care and respect from their descendants during life and after death.
- 4 Those who have no children are neglected and sorrowful. Please bless everyone with offspring so that this will not happen any more.”
- 5 Sahng-jeh-nim said He would grant this wish. “The middle heaven spirits will be in charge of granting blessings. They will ensure that everyone has descendants.
- 6 In the coming world, blessings will be granted according to each person’s accomplishments and virtue. There will be no unfairness and prejudice.”
