HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center

Through their Holy Wedding on the 16th day of the 3rd lunar month of 1960, Sun-myung Moon and Hak-ja Han were manifested on earth as the True Parents, the restored original ancestors of humankind. As a result, the way was opened for all fallen people to be reborn as children of Heavenly Parent through the Blessing officiated by True Parents.

On the foundation of countless victories, True Parents advanced beyond the worldwide expansion of the Blessing on earth and ushered in the Age of the Expansion of the Blessing throughout Heaven and Earth. On August 24, 1992, the 33rd year after the Holy Wedding of the True Parents, and in advance of the 30,000 Couples Blessing Ceremony, True Parents proclaimed themselves the Saviors, Messiahs, and True Parents before more than 700 distinguished leaders from around the world. Three years later, the way was finally opened for those in the spirit world also to receive the Blessing.

On August 23, 1995, the 36th year after the Holy Wedding of True Parents and two days before the 360,000 Couples Blessing Ceremony, Chung-mo nim, Dae-hyung nim, and Daemo nim’s families received the Blessing. Although they had rendered the greatest service in preparing the way for the advent of the True Parents, the gate of the Blessing for them did not open until much later, at the time of the 360,000 Couples Blessing Ceremony on earth. This demonstrates how much preparation and jeongseong (devotion) were required to open the way for the Blessing in the spirit world, and it helps us appreciate the tremendous providential grace we enjoy today through the liberation and Blessing of our ancestors.

“The time of the 3.6 Million Couples Blessing is the time when heaven and earth come into contact. It is the time when the vertical world and the horizontal world come together. Therefore, Adam’s family and all humanity stand in the position of having never fallen as they await the day of the Blessing. It is the fulfillment of Adam and Eve’s family in the Garden of Eden. Their family represents all of humankind and inherits the value of the universe. Through your becoming blessed families, the age of unified liberation has arrived in which your ancestors and descendants alike can be liberated. Because Adam and Eve fell and Jesus’ mission was left unfulfilled, the Returning Lord has come and completed that mission by establishing the family, thereby ushering in the Completed Testament Age. In the same way, although your ancestors made mistakes, because you now stand as families belonging to the Returning Lord, the age of unified liberation has come in which your ancestors also can be liberated. Following the Blessing, the entire spirit world receives liberation. Thus, the flow of the providence expands from the age of the Blessing on earth to the age of the Blessing in the spirit world.” (True Father, Belvedere Training Center, USA, 4 May 1997)

Thereafter, ceremonies for the Blessing of those in the spirit world began in earnest. On November 29, 1997, the first spirit world Blessing ceremony was conducted as part of with the 40 Million Couples International Holy Blessing, and on December 1, 1997, True Parents proclaimed the Opening of the Gate for the Spirit World Blessing. On May 15, 1998, they proclaimed the Liberation of Hell and the Opening of the Gate to Heaven. On June 2 of the same year, declaring that a system should be established to educate those in the spirit world in the Principle, True Parents established the training center in the spirit world. Then, on June 13, at the time of the First 360 Million Couples Blessing Ceremony, they bestowed the Blessing upon saints and even evil spirits together, proclaiming the Blessing Ceremony for the Unity of the Spirit World and the Physical World. Thereafter, on February 12, 1999, at Cheongpyeong Training Center (now HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center), True Parents inaugurated the liberation of the ancestors of the blessed families. On March 21, 1999, True Parents proclaimed the Day of Satan’s Voluntary Surrender. Following the Proclamation of the Liberation of the Cosmos on May 14, they proclaimed Gu Gu Jeol (9-9 Day) on September 9, signifying the Day the Parents of Heaven and Earth Open the Realm of the Unity and Liberation of Heaven and Earth. Through this proclamation, they broke down the barriers between the earthly and heavenly worlds that had been erected by Satan. Then, at 10:10 am on September 10, through the proclamation of Ssang Ship Jeol (10-10 Day), they offered to Heaven the numbers one through ten, declaring that the Old Testament Age, the New Testament Age, and the Completed Testament Age had been restored through indemnity and brought to a complete conclusion. Building upon the proclamation of the Proclamation of the Day of Liberation by Giving the Blessing to All Heaven and Earth, on October 23, they dedicated Cheonseong Wanglim Palace on November 7. On December 12 of that same year, at Cheonseong Wanglim Palace, True Parents conducted the first ancestor Blessing ceremony for the ancestors of blessed families. Thus, after many difficult providential courses, 40 years after the advent of True Parents, the ancestors of blessed families were finally able to receive ancestor liberation and ancestor Blessing.

True Parents explained that ancestor liberation and the Blessing are an expression of Heaven’s boundless love, through which ancestors are saved in order to establish one universal family centered on God. This Blessing for those in spirit world, linked together with the Blessing on earth, has expanded the value of the Blessing to a sphere encompassing heaven and earth. When descendants liberate their ancestors and offer jeongseong (devotion), those ancestors in the spirit world work as absolutely good spirits, helping people on earth. Ultimately, ancestor liberation and ancestor Blessing are part of God’s providence of salvation, through which all humanity is engrafted into God’s lineage and receives eternal liberation.

“The Cheongpyeong providence (the CheonBo providence) integrates what had been separated in the Garden of Eden—the archangel, Adam, and Eve. It is a movement to purify completely the fallen blood lineage of Satan. Those who pass through the Cheongpyeong providence are purified; therefore they receive the Blessing. They receive the spiritual Blessing.” (True Father, 290-178, 22 Feb 1998, Hannam-dong Residence)

“You must liberate your ancestors. To liberate them, you must love and invest in your ancestors in the spirit world even more than your relatives on earth. Otherwise, those ancestors who are in hell in the heavenly world cannot come to the earth. Therefore, you must call those families together and stand in the central position so that you can help them become one.” (True Father, Cheon Seong Gyeong 7.4.3:23; 8 Nov 1998, Center for the Education of Ideal Families for World Peace, Brazil)

“Every person has many spirits attached to them. The Cheongpyeong providence is the work through which the True Parents remove those spirits. Then True Parents shine a searchlight so that those spirits can rise from the hell of the spirit world. Anyone can follow that light. All good spirits are able to do so. It opens the way for them to ascend. Every barrier and every condition that once blocked them is completely removed. Those walls of bondage must be opened. That is why they can reach Heaven in a short time. Today people suffer because they are influenced by evil spirits. Therefore, those connections must be cut off. All evil spirits must be removed. Since Adam’s family became an evil family through the Fall, a work of re-creation must take place. This is a work of re-creating the ancestors. Therefore, families in the position of the archangel must first be established. That is why we have entered the era of the large-scale Blessing Ceremonies and the age of Blessings for the liberation of the spirit world.” (True Father, 298-212, 8 Jan 1999, Punta del Este, Uruguay)

“All the spirits in the spirit world are descendants of Adam. However, because of the Fall, they inherited the archangel’s lineage and entered the spirit world. We cannot simply leave the spirit world relegated to the sphere of Cain. They all must receive the Blessing. Through the Blessing they must be brought into a level relationship. That is why we bring together the spirits of those who died without marrying and give them the Blessing. Likewise, the spirits of those who died as infants continue to grow in the spirit world. After they reach the age of 16, we grant the Blessing to those who entered the spirit world without having married. We have blessed 1.6 billion couples of children who died young and of unmarried young men and women who passed to the spirit world. Since then, we have continued by blessing 4 billion couples, 10 billion couples, 12 billion couples, and so on. At the same time, we are giving the Blessing for the unmarried men and women on earth. Just as evil spirits enter and attach themselves to people on earth, good spirits enter people and guide them. The spirits that had previously occupied them are driven out, while Blessed good spirits come to the earth and surround them.” (True Father, 301-211, 1 May 1999, East Garden, USA)

“You must liberate your ancestors. You must create an environment in which your ancestors can be liberated and freed from every condition of indemnity, and then you must devote yourselves wholeheartedly to witnessing. In witnessing, you must stake your life and invest your entire being.” (23 June 2013, Hawaii, USA)

Opening the Era of True Parents’ Direct Dominion

On October 27, 2014, in order to establish Cheon Il Guk, True Mother reorganized the Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center (now the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center) and declared: “We are entering the era of the works directly governed by True Parents, moving beyond the era centered on Heung-jin nim and Daemo nim.” From that day forward, the completion stage of the CheonBo providence began. It is an era in which the works are carried out under the substantial direct dominion of the True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind, as True Father in the heavenly world and True Mother on earth work together to bestow directly the grace and Blessing of Heaven. Subsequently, on May 14, 2018, True Mother renamed the Offering Papers for the Fulfillment of Wishes as Hyojeong Offering Papers.

Mission of the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center

On February 15, 2019, True Mother bestowed the new name HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center (HJ天宙天寶修鍊苑) upon the former Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center.

“Today I will change the name of the Cheongpyeong Heaven and Earth Training Center to the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center. Rather than bearing the name of the limited locality known as Cheongpyeong, it now stands on a foundation that with a national scope and a scope that embraces even the spiritual world. It is a training center that raises people who will be registered in CheonBo Won, whom Heaven remembers.” (Cheonseong Wanglim Palace, 15 Feb 2019)

Then, on May 10, while presiding over the CheonBo Won Grand Opening Ceremony, True Mother called for the grace of the CheonBo providence to overflow even more abundantly. True Mother has taught that the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center is a sacred place that serves as Heaven’s womb—a place where fallen humanity is grafted from the wild olive tree to the true olive tree and reborn into new life. Through the separation of spirits, ancestor liberation, and ancestor Blessing, our spirits mature and grow. She explained that as we return frequently with gratitude and offer jeongseong (devotion), we gradually develop into mature spirit selves.

True Mother has taught that Heavenly Parent is renewing the spirit world through us. She explained that when ancestors who have wandered for countless years come before the True Parents through ancestor liberation and ancestor Blessing, true order and joy are restored in the spirit world, and they become good spirits who support their descendants. The jeongseong (devotion) offered on earth becomes the key that opens the gates of the spirit world, bringing about the providence of the liberation of the spirit world in which heaven and earth, and past, present, and future, are united.

“In Las Vegas, I said that we must liberate our ancestors. By this I meant that we must establish the foundation and environment through which Father can carry out his activities in the spirit world. No matter how absolute God may be as the Absolute Being or as the King of kings, God’s authority cannot be manifested where there are no citizens. There must be citizens. Until now, for 6,000 years, the spirit world has remained a dark world connected to Satan. Through ancestor liberation and ancestor Blessing, we open the way for a good spirit world. In this way, we expand the environment in which True Father can carry out his activities.” (Cheon Jeong Gung, 22 Jun 2015)

“By fulfilling your responsibility as those living in the same era as the True Parents, you will become ancestors remembered throughout history. Standing in the position of ancestors, you must open the path not only for your own ancestors but also for your future descendants. That is why you must understand the providence of the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center. . . . Daemo nim, who gave birth to the only begotten Daughter after 6,000 years, devoted her entire life to preparing the environment for the Messiah. She pioneered both earthly life and life in the spirit world in ways that no one else knew. Unlike Mary, she fulfilled her responsibility completely in bringing up the Only Begotten Daughter. Therefore, for the sake of your ancestors and your descendants, you must carry out ancestor liberation at the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center. You must open the way for your ancestors. They entered the spirit world without knowing True Parents. This is of utmost importance.” (Impact Arena, Bangkok, Thailand, 14 Jun 2017)

“You must complete the liberation and Blessing of your ancestors, and you must also fulfill the responsibility as a heavenly tribal messiah. Then your descendants will live in the peaceful kingdom of heaven on earth in an age free from indemnity.”

(21 May 2017, Busan Church, Korea)

True Mother guided us to move beyond personal salvation and walk the CheonBo path, encompassing our ancestors, descendants, and all mankind.
