Shin Jeong Yil (hangul:신정일, hanja:申正一, 1938 - 1999) is a Korean religious leader (the founder of Hanol-gyo),[1] also a politician and an entrepreneur.
Hanol-gyo is a Korean traditional religion with 5,000 years of history, re-established by Shin Jeong Yil.[2]
Hanol-gyo is an unconventional religion: it is the teachings on enlightenment and awakening.
Hanol-gyo permits participants to practice other religions as well: it honors and respects all other enlightened beings (Dangun, Buddha, Jesus, Lao-tzu, Confucius, etc.), along with their teachings and their religions; it aims to overcome religious separation and unite under the name of Truth.[3]
The Founder's doctrine is "Naol is Hanol", which means “My true spiritual nature is one with the spiritual nature of All.” [4]
As a politician, Shin Jeong Yil formed the Unified Korea Political Party and ran for the Korean Presidency twice,[5] in the 13th Presidency in 1987[6] and 15th Presidency in 1997.[7]
As the Founder and Chairman of the Hanon Group, Shin Jeong Yil acquired the right to develop one of the largest crude oil mines in Iraq.[8] He protested against the war in Iraq and supplied medicine for the children suffering from the war. As recognition of his humanitarian and diplomatic efforts, he was appointed to the Honorary Consul by both the Iraqi and Korean governments.[9]
Shin Jeong Yil passed away in 1999.[10] An unprecedented number of sari (sacred crystals found among the cremated remains of enlightened monks and Buddha) were found[11] and witnessed by many people including clerics and monks of other religions.[12] Hanol-gyo has been exhibiting the sari at the Commemoration Ceremonies of the Founder.[13]
