- True Dharma Will Emerge
- 1 Regarding all ceremonies and empty formalities passed down through the generations, Sahng-jeh-nim said, “The old heaven has incorrectly made them. In the near future, true dharma will emerge.”
- 2 Looking at the arrangement of food on a table for ancestral memorial rites, Sahng-jeh-nim said, “This has been improperly determined by the old heaven. A food offering is good as long as it is well prepared and delicious. The value is not determined by the arrangement on the table.
- 3 Spirits are nourished by what humans eat.”
- Correct Burial for the Deceased
- 7 “To tie up the corpses of your parents is to treat them like enemies.
- 8 The correct way is to bury the deceased in a coffin without tying them up.”
- (JSD Dojeon 2,115)
