- Sahng-jeh-nim Informs Heaven and Earth of His Arrival
- 1 The next morning, as Sahng-jeh-nim left Sohl-ahn Village for Dae-heung Village in Jung-eup County, He turned to Gohng-ooh and said, “When you have met . . . .” This reminded Gohng-ooh of a line in one of Chey Su-oon’s songs, “When you do meet, a great blessing will come to your family.”
- 2 The meaning of this became clear to him. Because of this, he decided to go with Sahng-jeh-nim.
- 3 When they arrived at Gyung-suk’s house in Dae-heung Village, Sahng-jeh-nim said, “Heaven and earth should be informed that I have arrived here.”
- 4 He wrote something on paper and pasted it on the western wall of the room. Suddenly, there were thunderclaps. “Oh, that was quick,” Sahng-jeh-nim said. He took the paper from the wall and sat with it under His knee. The thunder ceased.
- 5 Gohng-ooh was astonished and impressed, and the villagers thought it odd to have thunder on a bright, clear day.
