Yungyeonggyo (Sirimese: 倫鏡敎) is a Sirimese religion separated from Tenzanese Rinnokyo by orders of the Sirimese Federation's government. Its intimate history with Rinnokyo, though now denied within the religion, cause some scholars (especially outside the Union State) to regard it as a Sirim-based Tenzanese New Religion.
The main points of distinction for Yungyeonggyo away from Rinnokyo is the former's heavy promotion of Union State-approved nationalism and social messaging, the omission of all Tenzanese involvement from its official account—notably the Abbess Mother Uzan'in, as well as pointed Sirimization of items within Rinnokyo's theology (without substantial innovation otherwise):
Because of either its Tenzanese origins or heavily government-regulated nature, Yungyeonggyo has survived into the second century R.C. with much difficulty.
