1 On 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.

이 날 태모님께서 또 공사를 행하시니, 어진을 모신 방문 앞에 단(壇)을 설치하여 향촉(香燭)을 밝히시고 치성 음식을 성대히 준비하여 진설케 하시니라.

2 Then, in front of Gahng Jin-yong’s nine-plot rice field, Taemonim had a sign erected: “The Field of Rice Offerings for Geumsansa Temple.”

이어 강진용(姜鎭容)의 논 아홉 두락에 ‘금산사 불양답(金山寺佛糧畓)’이라 쓴 푯말을 세우시고

3 She 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.”

고민환에게 가사와 법복을 입히신 뒤에 명하시기를 “단 앞에서 24일간 천수경(千手經)과 칠성경을 송주하라.” 하시니라.

4 After 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.”

이어 말씀하시기를 “이 공사는 선천의 주불(主佛)인 석가모니의 운이 이미 갔으니 이제 후천 용화세계의 주불이신 미륵불을 봉영(奉迎)하는 공사니라.” 하시며

5 Taemonim then chanted three times:

천갱생天更生 지갱생地更生 인갱생人更生 미륵갱생彌勒更生

The rebirth of heaven, the rebirth of earth, the rebirth of humanity, the rebirth of Maitreya. Afterward, she retired to her room.

“천갱생天更生 지갱생地更生 인갱생人更生 미륵갱생彌勒更生”이라 삼창(三唱)하신 후에 방에 드시니라.

6 Many days 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.”

후일에 공사를 마치고 단을 거두어 치우려 할 때 태모님께서 치하하시기를 “미륵불 공양에 수고하였노라.” 하시니라.
