1st of March Movement Korea

1 March 2019 -100 years since Korean uprising against Japan 1 March 1919. Celebration in Tallin Estonia PeaceCenter.

THAT IS WHY GOD LED THE MARCH 1ST MOVEMENT. SO MUCH BLOOD WAS SHED JUST FOR ONE PERSON --ME-- (SunMyungMoon) TO COME TO EARTH.

The year 1920 when I was born was the year following the March 1st Movement for Korean independence. Before my birth, Korea suffered three years of famine. The March 1st Movement brought the nation into a time of turmoil, yet it was already suffering through a most difficult period brought on by natural calamities.

Under Japanese colonial rule, Korea was being pulled in Satan’s direction; hence, the March 1st revolution broke out in order to move things in a new direction.

The people who led that movement were people of faith, mainly Christians and adherents of the Cheondogyo faith. They presented a new direction that shifted from Japanese imperialism toward America with its Christian culture.

In this way, Christianity spread widely and penetrated deeply into the culture of the Korean nation and people.

This was possible because the Korean people, who chafed under the rule of imperial Japan, were inclining more toward the Christian cultural sphere, which was influenced by the United States.

This is an amazing fact.

Beginning from that historical uprising against Japan, Christianity in Korea developed rapidly. (142-054, 1986/03/01)

Many Koreans sacrificed their lives calling for independence from Japan by carrying out the Mansei Demonstrations that began on March 1, 1919.

Why did such a tragedy take place at that point in time? It was because I was meant to be conceived and born during a period of patriotic fervor.

I was born in the first lunar month of 1920, during the year after the March 1st Movement began. Why was this significant? The Returning Lord must be born in a nation that God can claim, even if He can claim it only conditionally.

If the Returning Lord were to be born and come to a nation that had not established such a condition, it would be as if he were floating in the air, without solid ground on which to stand.

That is why God led the March 1st Movement. So much blood was shed just for one person --me — to come to earth. That is why the Korean people suffered so much in 1919, both from famine due to a poor harvest and from the loss of life through this heroic but tragic movement.

It is based on such indemnity conditions that God’s providence has been advancing. (244-326, 1993/03/01)

From Way of the World March 1971 Background

National Thirst for Freedom Source of ‘Samil’ Independence Movement

To understand fully the March 1 Independence Movement of 1919, one must carefully study the Korean people’s strong thirst for independence under the Japanese colonial rule as the international situation of the time.

After the nation’s annexation to Japan in 1910, the first Governor General, Masatake Terauchi, proclaimed martial law which was enforced until 1915.

In reality, however, his military government continued until 1919 when the much suppressed Koreans rose up against the brutality of the Japanese.

During these years, many Korean patriots fled overseas to fight against the Japanese for the nation’s independence while others devoted themselves to enlightening people through religious activities and news papers inside the country.

In 1911, Terauchi arrested, without any warning or Evidence, 115 Korean patriots mostly from church groups which included several American missionaries. His action was a warning against any sort of anti-Japanese movement.

When the World War I broke out in 1914, Japan fought on the allies, side against Germany through the Anglo-Japan Alliance.

With the beginning of the war, the Japanese military government in this country increased its suppression on the people.

The Korean flag is called taegukki. Its appearance symbolizes the principles of yin and yang in Oriental philosophy.

The circle in the center is divided into two equal parts.

The upper red section represents the ”positive” cosmic energy yang. Similarly, the lower blue section symbolizes, the ”negative” cosmic forces yin.

The two forces together embody the concept of perpetual motion and balance and harmony that characterize the eternal realm. (KoH)

The circle is surrounded by four trigram, one in each corner, from the ancient Chinese wisdom book I Ching

Confucius and Lao-tse has commented on this important book of wisdom!

Each trigram symbolizes one of the four universal elements (from top left around clockwise):
