¹Early in the morning of September 19, Taemonim offered a chiseong commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of Sangjenim’s incarnation, and after the chiseong, She sang:

²Even incomparable sages cannot be so if the time is not right.

³Revealing and observing the stars in heaven,
I see that all affairs are what they should be.

⁴Opening the gate that lies ahead and peering through it,
I see that all wishes are certainly fulfilled.

⁵Opening the eight gates and peering through them,
I see that all spirits and humanity resolve their bitterness and grief.

⁶Having cultivated and purified themselves with dao
for fifty thousand years to encounter that year, that month, that day,
they now free themselves from the karma amassed throughout the ages.

⁷Now is the destiny unparalleled by what has been and what shall be:
the destiny of heaven unparalleled by what has been and what shall be,
the destiny of earth unparalleled by what has been and what shall be.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful is our time.

⁸Only when the three successively become great buddhas
will all affairs under heaven be completely revealed,
so how could anyone know in the meantime?

⁹People of the world!

Worry not about the destiny of heaven and earth,
merely cultivate and purify your minds.

¹⁰If you cultivate and purify your mind, will ageless immortality not be
yours?

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful is our time.

¹¹The work that has been ruled and approved
—how can the people of the world know of it?

Some people are one way, and some people are another.

¹²A person is not a human being,
but is a human being when they are truly a human being.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful is our time.

¹³In this unfortunate world, to what will you devote your unwavering mind
to cultivate meritorious deeds before heaven and earth?

¹⁴Cultivate and purify yourself with dao through a right mind.
When you cultivate and purify yourself with dao through a right mind,
Your becoming a true human is certain.

¹⁵If you never waver for even a single moment throughout spring, summer, autumn, and winter,

and you cultivate and purify yourself with sincerity, awakenedness, and faithfulness,
your becoming a seed of humanity is certain.

Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful is our time.

¹⁶The time of Holy Maitreya Buddha has arrived.
Wonderful is our time.
