- The Fate of the World’s People Struggling to Survive
- 1 Accompanied by Hyung-yul and Ho-yun, Sahng-jeh-nim visited a house in Oon-bohng Township, Nahm-wun County. The woman of the house prepared a room for them.
- 4 Some neighbors brought Sahng-jeh-nim vegetables, and as He ate them, He said,
- 5 “I must thank you for kindly bringing Me these vegetables.” Then, He said to Himself, “Alas, people’s lives are pitiful.”
- 6 “Why did You say that?” Ho-yun asked.
“It is so pitiful that they struggle so hard to survive only to die, unable to see a new world,” Sahng-jeh-nim replied.
- The Likelihood of Surviving the Autumn Gae-byuk
- 7 Sahng-jeh-nim said, “If I circulate the ultimate qi from over there, people here fall like bean sprouts.
- 8 It is not that they die by eating something or falling into something. While sitting, they close their eyes and silently fall over.”
- 9 One day, Sahng-jeh-nim said to Ho-yun, “In the future, it will be difficult for one person in ten to survive. There is no way to know what would happen to even one’s own children.
- 10 At that time, when I am seated high, you will be unable to lift your heavy eyelids to look at Me.”
