Introduction
Jeung San Do is a spiritual movement that spreads the great dao of Sangjenim (Maitreya Buddha, the Ruler of the Universe) and the news of the coming cosmic autumn in which humanity will attain enlightenment and ageless longevity. Jeung San Do also conveys the message of Gaebyeok (‘The Great Opening’ or ‘The Arrival of a New Heaven, Earth, and Humanity’) and promotes meditation practices to transform ourselves into beings of light and immortality.
Korea has a 10,000 year history of the culture of meditation according to the teachings of Sangjenim. However, this history of Korean spirituality was completely erased during the Japanese invasion. Now, the world knows Korea having only about a 2,000 year history.
Over 160 years ago, the message of Gaebyeok, or the Great Opening, was declared in Eastern Learning, Donghak. The meaning of the Great Opening is that the order of the universe, in which humans and all that exist, undergoes a profound change and becomes new.
Fifteen million followers of Eastern Learning announced the Great Opening, heralding the news of the birth of a new universe. They have sung the Sicheonjuju Mantra with one mind, the music of the universe that will open the world of the cosmic autumn.
Jeung San Do is the culmination of the teachings and meditation practices of Eastern Learning, which had led the 15 million followers toward self-cultivation and awakening, connecting with nature and the universe.
In Korea, as the influence of Eastern Learning waned and its legacy became blurred, the Taesang Jongdosanim and the Jongdosanim, the two supreme masters of Jeung San Do, rediscovered the essential teachings and practices of Eastern Learning and established Jeung San Do.
