Spiritual Harvest in a Large-scale Korean Traditional
Festival
![]() By Gangwon-do News Group (Originally in Korean)
[Gangneung] A large-scale Korean traditional festival, Gangneung Dano Festival was held from June 17 to 24, Golden Year 4 (2007). This festival was designated as Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. Every year, about 1 million visitors go to the festival from around the nation. Gangwon-do Province fellow initiates, in cooperation with initiates from other places, set up a booth and gave out Supreme Master Television and Alternative Living promotional messages to the visitors. We had made fans and balloons containing the Supreme Master Television logo, which the visitors found irresistible. It was amazing to see so many people holding the fans and balloons making the entire festival venue and even the Gangneung City look like a sea of Supreme Master TV logos. Additionally, initiates used their vocal chords to attract festival goers and encourage them to come and try the free vegetarian samples, and also provided flyers and sample booklets. Apart from the promotion at the festival venue, we also carried out various other activities. From June 21 to 23, we paraded our cars with Supreme Master Television banners on them around the streets, and additionally handed out Supreme Master Television/Alternative Living flyers and fans. As Gangwon-do Province is a top summer holiday destination for Korean people - about 20 million people visit every summer - initiates continue to place Supreme Master Television banners in easy-to-see places. On the last day of the festival, we held a video seminar at
Gangneung Women's Center. In the lecture shown, Master elaborated on the
Truth that we are the Buddha, our True Self is God. A gentleman was so
touched that he applauded several times. Before learning the Convenient
Method of meditation, he shared his opinion with others. Thirty years
ago he experienced that humans and God are one. He looked at many religious
scripts to prove it, but could not find the right book. He was so happy
to see Master's lecture and encouraged others not to miss such a precious
chance to learn Her teachings.

![]() [Jinju] The wish of fellow initiates in the city of Jinju to
have a place of their own to share Master's teachings with fellow citizens
has come true! On June 24, Golden Year 4 (2007), local practitioners invited
a Quan Yin messenger and brothers and sisters from Busan Center to celebrate
the opening of the new Center. They meditated together and enjoyed a pleasant
dinner party. Local initiates are delighted and eager to share Master's
teachings more broadly based from this new Center.
