After a declaration of the end of ideology by D. Bell, the world has been continually changed without conflict between Eastern and Western ideology. In other words, many countries of the world have entered into the age of mutual cooperation each other in these days. Accordingly Korean people have to prepare the unity spirits for Korean reunification. Dong-hak has originally included the common spirits of all south-north Korean people. The most important religious concept of Dong-hak is Sicheonju(侍天主). It means that everyone serves Heaven within this mind. And Cheonju means Heaven and Hanwoolnim who was called Samsin(三神) from the initial Korean religion. Samsin is the first King's name of three Chosum(三朝鮮) of ancient Korea.
