This work details the symbols, scriptures, and foundational principles that Su-un shared with the public. His message was designed for everyone, regardless of gender, age, education, or social status. By following an egalitarian creed, Su-un challenged the major religious traditions and the structure of Korean society. Readers will learn how his teachings encouraged a reflection on the innate dignity of every individual. The book covers his efforts to reform social, ethical, and religious standards through his unique spiritual framework.
