On July 6, 2020, when True Mother visited the Hyojeong Cafe, President Gi-seong Lee offered a prayer for the Ridge Beam Raising Ceremony of the Hanwon House. Afterwards, True Mother expressed joy, saying, “The location of Hanwon House is auspicious, but there is an even more auspicious place above this location.
After President Gi-seong Lee shared his observations of various places he had visited, describing how beautiful and wonderful they were, he expressed his wish for True Mother to give them names. In response, True Mother named the places “Hanwon Path of Heavenly Fortune” and “Hanwon Heavenly Fortune Peak.” True Mother said, “Anyone who attends Heavenly Parent and comes to Hanwon House to enjoy a cup of tea and then climbs the path will be able to receive heavenly fortune, and the owls will safeguard their heavenly fortune.” She also referred to this place as the “Owls’ Prosperous Garden (Booheung Garden)” while conveying this message.
Afterward, President Gi-seong Lee earnestly offered jeongseong, climbing up and down the Hanwon Path of Heavenly Fortune whenever he had the time, recalling True Mother’s words. One day, while climbing up and down the paths, President Lee came across an exceptionally majestic elm tree that stood out from the others. On November 15, 2020 (the 1st day of the 10th month of the heavenly calendar), after the event celebrating the 61st True Children’s Day, President Gi-seong Lee reported the discovery of that tree to True Mother during a luncheon at Cheon Jeong Gung. In response, True Mother named this tree the “Tree of Hyojeong” as the sixth special tree at the training center, following the Tree of Love, Tree of Heart, Tree of All Things, Tree of Loyalty, and Tree of Blessing. This can be understood as a call to fulfill our mission as filial sons and daughters, emulating True Parents who have led lives of hyojeong.
When the Tree of Hyojeong was inspected by Gapyeong County forestry experts, everyone was taken aback with astonishment. That is because using traditional Korean age calculation, the age of Tree of Hyojeong matched True Mother’s age exactly. Indeed, this event can be considered a miraculous occurrence, making it hard not to see the tree as a symbol of True Mother, the Only Begotten Daughter.
On October 14, 2021, True Mother came to see the tree. On that day, she asked, “I was born in the first month of the lunar calendar. In which month were you born?” She then gave a prayer of blessing on the Tree of Hyojeong, saying, “Those who frequently come to the Tree of Hyojeong and offer jeongseong will experience good health.”
Then, True Parents relocated to the pavilion at Hanwon Heavenly Fortune Peak, where they engaged in a dialogue with the executives of the HJ Heaven and Earth CheonBo Training Center, including President Gi-seong Lee.
