Daehan Cheolligyo (Korean: 대한천리교) is a Tenrikyo-based Shinshūkyō (Japanese new religion) that is based in South Korea. It is one of the two South Korean Tenrikyo organizations. Daehan Cheolligyo is known for adopting more localized customs to harmonize with the general post-Japanese colonial cultural atmosphere; the other one is Cheolligyo Han'gukgyodan that still preserves the Japanese Sect Shinto-affiliated cultural aspects in terms of religious practices and direct affiliation with the Tenrikyo Church Headquarters. Its headquarters are currently located in southern Uijeongbu right next to Mangwolsa Station of Seoul Subway Line 1 and Shinhan University 's 2nd campus.[n 1]
History
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ce/Sookmyung_Women%27s_University%2C_Saebit_Hall.jpg/220px-Sookmyung_Women%27s_University%2C_Saebit_Hall.jpg)
The Korean branch of Tenrikyo had to face the public backlashes of anti-Japanese sentiment after the surrender of Japan due to Tenrikyo being a religion of native Japanese origin. This nation-wide circumstance had created an environment in which the Korean Tenrikyo adherents could not practice their religion openly in public.
The first attempt to make an autonomous and indigenous Korean Tenrikyo organization was led by Kim Gi-su (김기수; 金杞洙) in May 1947 who founded the General Association of Tenrikyo (천리교연합회; 天理敎聯合會) that did not exist as an officially approved legal corporation.[3] The disorganized social and political situation in South Korea at the time did not unite Tenrikyo followers instantly. In general, the collective hardship continued even further due to the growth of Christianity in South Korea. Another group of Korean Tenrikyo adherents reformed their religion and eventually established Cheon'gyeongsuyang'won[n 3] with government approval in Seoul in 1948 as a way to cut down the overt Japanese connection within Korea's Tenrikyo communities, then evolved into General Association of Korean Tenrikyo (대한천리교연합회; 大韓天理敎聯合會) on 14 December 1952 by the thirty-three members of Cheon'gyeongsuyang'won in Daegu during the Korean War.[5]
The financial and charity arm of the religious organization, Incorporated Foundation Daehan Cheolligyodan, was established on 14 October 1963.[6]
The headquarters were moved from Cheongpa-dong in Yongsan District to Uijeongbu around late 2000s and early 2010s[n 4] for the purpose of future exchanges with North Korea.[9]
Organization
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/Daehan_Cheolligyo_Organization.png/220px-Daehan_Cheolligyo_Organization.png)
The head of Daehan Cheolligyo is called gyotong (교통; 敎統), a subordinate of the gyotong is called gyoui (교의; 敎議),[n 5] and its congregations are called gyohoe (교회; 敎會) or churches in Korean.
Difference from Tenrikyo
Daehan Cheolligyo does not largely develop an independent path from Tenrikyo's regional church practices in Japan, but only Korean-ized or removed the verbose Shinto-based elements in the religious practices.
Kanrodai
Unlike its Japanese origin, Daehan Cheolligyo's adherents directly pray to the wooden kanrodai fixtures (while the one in the headquarters in Uijeongbu is much bigger) that are installed within the main halls of respective churches instead of mirrors from Shinto traditions during the localized services appropriate for the Korean social environment.[11][12][13]
Codes of Conduct
Daehan Cheolligyo emphasizes particularly on the Three Instructions (삼개훈; 三個訓) and Eight Precepts (팔계훈; 八戒銘)[14][15]
The detail of the two codes are:[16]
- Three Instructions[n 6]
- Wake up early (아침 일찍 일어나)
- Have an honest heart (정직한 마음으로)
- Work diligently (부지런히 일하자)
- Eight Precepts[n 7]
- Throw away the heart that promotes desire (탐내는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes poverty of emotions (인색한 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes favoritism against others (편애하는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes hate (미워하는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes resentment (원망하는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes anger (분노하는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes expressing greed (욕심내는 마음을 버리자)
- Throw away the heart that promotes arrogance (교만한 마음을 버리자)
Notes
- ^ Its current address is 117 Hoam-ro, Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. The modernized traditional Korean style building of the headquarters is often confused as the temple Mangweolsa .[1]
- ^ The last photo in this news article[2] entails that this building was renovated after the acquisition by the university.
- ^ Cheon'gyeongsuyang'won (천경수양원; 天鏡修養院) literally means Heavenly Mirror Spiritual Training Center in Sino-Korean. This legally approved organization acted as a mere entity for maintaining communication and fostering fraternity among Korean Tenrikyo adherents for the purpose of reestablishing Tenrikyo as a legal religious organization; however, promoted charity for the poor and orphans in public.[4]
- ^ The headquarters that is used to be in Cheongpa-dong currently stands Sookmyung Women's University's Saebitgwan since March 2011.[7][8]
- ^ Gyoui is also homophone of Tenikyo doctrine in Korean, gyoui (교의; 敎義)
- ^ They are based on the Anecdote #29 in Anecdotes of Oyasama that pertains to "this is early rising, this is honesty and this is work".[17]
- ^ They are based on the eight dusts that is to be avoided for achieving Joyous Life.[18]

일본의 천리교가 일본의 전통 종교나 다름없는 신도의 상징물인 신경(神鏡)을 예배대상으로 삼은 것에 반발해 국내 천리교는 1985년부터 '신경' 대신 '감로대'로 신앙대상을 바꾸는 등 일본의 천리교의 전통과 사상을 달리해 왔다.
[The main object of worship is considered to be a divine mirror (神鏡, shinkyou) in Japan's Tenrikyo, in which it is nevertheless not that distant from the Japanese traditional belief called Shinto that became a target for objection (by the Korean Tenrikyo adherents at that time). It is thus, Korea's domestic Tenrikyo religious scene switched the object of worship from a divine mirror to kanrodai in 1985, marking a divergence from Tenrikyo's traditions and beliefs.] - ^ Neusner, Jacob (2009-10-07).

This altar contains no images, for divinity in the Tenrikyo and Shinto tradiition generallly does not take human form. Instead there are three simple cabinetlike shrines. When they stand open for worship, they reveal the gleaming mirrors that in Japan betoken the presence of kami (gods).

천리교에서는 예배상징물로서 일본 천황의 선조인 천조대신(天照大神)을 상징하는「야다노가가미」를 상징하는 신각(神閣)과 신(神)을 상징하는 [탑]을 뜻하는 감대로(甘露臺)를 두고 있는데 최근에는 일본의 국조를 모시는 신각의 사용여부를 놓고 심각한 내부갈등을 일으키키도 하였다.
[In Tenrikyo, the object of worship is the divine altar that symbolizes Yata no Kagami, the representation of the ancestor of the Japanese emperors, Amaterasu and the kanrodai that symbolizes God the Parent, but recently there were internal disputes on whether the divine altar would be continued as an object of worship.] - ^ "대한천리교(大韓天理敎)".
