Article 9.   ■ Definiton : A pure Chamber is a place to serve God (Hananim)       by worshiping with sincerity and woeshiping with sincerity and engraving      His presence in one′s heart so it is never forgotten.  ■ Environment : One should seek a location that is high and free of moisture.     It is important to prohibit anythtng that produces odors or is unclean,     and to block out noisy distractions.  ■ Ritual Practice : Do not make the ceremonies or rituals excessively      cumbersome or complicated.  ■ Implemnts : For the tools used during rituals, their value as " precious treasures"      is not what  matters, the essential requirement is that they are clean and pure.   ◆ Original Text(원문) ◆     ● 淨室者는 尊奉天神之處也라 卜陟乾하며 (정실자는 존봉천신지처야라 복척건하며)         The pure Chamber is the place where one reverently serves the Heavenly God,         choose asite that is elevated and dry.     ● 禁葷穢하며 絶喧譁하며 勿繁式이요 (금훈예하며 정훤화하며 물번식이요)         Forbid pungent odors and impurities , cut off loud clamor,         and do not use overly elaborate ceremonies.     ● 器具는 不在重寶요 質潔是要니라. (기구는 부재중보요 질결시요니라.)         Regarding the ritual implements, they do not need to be rare treasures,         their purity and cleanliness are what is essential.   ▣ Interpretation(풀이) ▣       ■ The Nature of God : God (Hananim, 一神 일신) is divided into three to become            the Sam - sin( Three Gods).       ■ The three Sages : The greatness of the Sam -sin is enhanced through             harmony with the Sam - seong(three Sages).      ■ Divine Inheritance : The Sam - seong bestowed the good, pure(淸,청),              and profound(厚,후) sam -jin(Three Truths) of the  Sam - sin upon humanity.             threrfore, every human is essentially the Sam - jin, the Sam - seong,             the Sam _ sin, and GOd Himself.         ■ Goguryeo Tradition : King Go - Jumong, the founder of Goguryeo,               stated in the Gaemul - gyohwa - gyeong that when God created humans,              He modeled them after His own image and gave them the Sam - jin equally.              This allows humans to exist in the world as representatives of Heaven.      ■ Simplicity of Worship : Since the root of a human is divine,              the place  where one honors this root( the Jeong - sil) dose not to be              luxurious or grand. It only requires cleanliness.      ■ The Good Heart : What truly matters is the good heart of the person              entering that sacred space.      ■ Humanitarian Mission : The ultimate goal is to practice profound kindness(厚,후)               toward all people on behalf of God.               This is the literal application of the Sam - jin received from God.      ■ True Offerings : Offerings are the "blood, sweat, and tears" of the people.               A priest should use these to benefit those in need,               embodying the spirit of Honglk Ingan(Broadly benefiting the human world).      ■ Divine Joy : Using resources to help the suffering and hungry is the path of                joy for humanity, the Three Sages, and God.       ■ Goal : The Jeong -sil( Pure Chamber) is the fundamental element required                to eventually turn the entire world into a Pure Land(淨土,정토).     ※ Key philosphical Terms(중심 철학 용어).                ● Sam - jin (三眞,삼진) : The "three Truths" ― the original divine                nature inherent in humans.        ● Hong Ingan(弘益人間,홍익인간) : The core Korean Philosphy                 of serving the greater good of all mankind.        ● Pure Land(淨土,정토) : An ideal, peaceful world achieved                 through spiritual and moral purity.
