¹On this same day, Taemonim conducted another work of renewal in which She had an altar placed outside the room where Sangjenim’s portrait was enshrined and ordered candles and incense lit and a grand food offering arrayed.²Then, in front of Gahng Jin-yong’s nine-plot rice field, Taemonim had a sign erected: “The Field of Rice Offerings for Geumsansa Temple.”³She then had Go Min-hwan don the formal robes of a monk and commanded him, “Chant the Cheonsugyeong Sutra and the Chilseonggyeong Scripture Mantra in front of the altar for twenty-four days.”

⁴After issuing these instructions, She proclaimed, “This is a work of renewal for welcoming Maitreya, the Lord Buddha of the Later Heaven’s Dragon Flower Paradise, as the destiny of Shakyamuni has already passed.”

⁵Taemonim then chanted three times:

天更生 地更生 人更生 彌勒更生
천갱생 지갱생 인갱생 미륵갱생

The rebirth of heaven, the rebirth of earth, the rebirth of humanity,
the rebirth of Maitreya.

Afterward, She retired to Her room.

⁶Days later, when this work of renewal had been completed and the disciples were about to remove the altar, Taemonim praised them, “I commend your toil in holding this offering to Maitreya Buddha.”
