¹Around March 15, Taemonim sent Chae Yu-jung to Yonghwa-dong Village with the message: “I have completed all My work in Jeongeup County, so I shall return to Yonghwa-dong Village on the twentieth.”²On the nineteenth, Yi Seong-yeong arrived in Wangsim-ri Village to escort Taemonim to Yonghwa-dong Village.

³That night, Taemonim conducted a work of renewal in which She had Seong-yeong and Yong-gi stand facing Bocheongyo’s new building in Daeheung-ri Village.⁴She asked Seong-yeong, “Gyeong-seok has betrayed Sangjenim and is ruining the future of millions of followers. What do you think should be done?”

⁵Seong-yeong answered, “It is said, ‘The betrayal of benevolence brings the betrayer ten thousand deaths.’ Thus, he deserves to die.”

⁶“The construction of this building bled dry millions of followers, and it will ultimately end in utter futility. What should befall it?”

⁷“Since the building will ultimately serve no purpose,” he replied, “I believe it is fitting to demolish it.”
Taemonim asked him the same question three times to confirm his answer.⁸She then proclaimed, “The good endures five years; the evil endures five years.” With this, She kicked Seong-yeong in the leg, toppling him.

⁹Five years later, in 1936, Cha Gyeong-seok died, and all the many large buildings belonging to Bocheongyo, including Sibiljeon Palace, were torn down by the authorities.
