Note: At the Chung Pyung 2-Day Special Workshop (Ancestor Liberation Ceremony 134 – 140) held on May 13, 2007, Dae Mo Nim said that during 'Purification Azalea Festival: Great Works to Commemorate the Special Workshop for the New Beginning of Cheon Il Guk Blessed Families' (5/2 - 6) that many blessings were received. Also, Dae Mo Nim said that more members should attend next year's Purification Azalea Festival and receive the great blessings that will be prepared for the members.

The 'Purification Azalea Festival: Great Works to Commemorate the Special Workshop for the New Beginning of Cheon Il Guk Blessed Families' was a period of great preciousness. Previously, our spiritual bodies were unable to see because of the amount of evil spirits, fallen nature, collateral sins, inherited sins and bad life style that covered our bodies. Although, we are able to see our spiritual bodies now, evil is still there. As long as evil is there, it won't be easy for us to perfect our human character. Therefore, we cannot be citizens of Heaven and enter Heaven.

That is why you must often come here, to Chung Pyung. You must also attend, at least one Chung Pyung 2-Day Special Workshop every month. Furthermore, attend the Chung Pyung 40-Day Workshop for more than 3 times. However, I still think all this is not sufficient enough. Therefore, I held this Purification Azalea Festival to remove the spirits within us.

Looking through the Purification Azalea Festival the thing that I thought that was really great was that we were able to prevent major problems from happening. For five days God never went back to the spirit world and stayed on earth with us. Together with the Absolute Good Spirits and angels, God was really busy working on the members. A surprising work happened during this time. It was the work of preventing problems before they happen.

The '2008 Purification Azalea Festival' will be held in early May, next year. This year I intend to explain about the Purification Azalea Festival at every Chung Pyung Workshop. The blessing that God gave us this year was really great and I intend to convey the message of God that He will give us more blessings next year. For God to do this, I intend to prepare even more for the next year's Purification Azalea Festival.

The Purification Azalea Festival is a great work for us to perfect our human character and live in heaven eternally. The Rally that True Parents are currently holding is to ultimately perfect our human character and make us live in Heaven. Thus, restoring us to the position before humanity fell. God receives joy when we experience joy. For that, we must perfect our human character.

To do this, we must remove all the bad things that we have inherited from our ancestors. Therefore, our daily life at home becomes really important. You must follow the 'Way to Heaven' that I have been talking about for some time. That is, establish a True Family, clear the fallen nature, never smoke cigarettes, drink alcohol, and do drugs, never misuse public money, never hurt other people's feelings, serve True Parents, go to church, and all brothers and sisters must unite. Also, you must live a life of being together with God and True Parents.

Through this Purification Azalea Festival, I gained the confidence that 'All of us can perfect our human character and go to Heaven'. If you can use this period of washing away all sins wisely, you are able to enter Heaven. If the number of Absolute Good Spirits and angels increase, difficult problems will disappear. Therefore, you must come here more often to remove evil spirits. Do you understand? ("Yes!")

You cannot just end this Purification Azalea Festival with simple 'It was great', but you must be grateful for it. At Chung Pyung Heaven and Earth Training Center all staff members gather at Jeongshim Won (Prayer Hall) to offer their prayer of gratitude at end of each event. We pray, 'God, we thank you for giving us such grace. We will put in more effort so that members can receive more grace'.

When a problem is solved, don't end it but you must give a prayer of gratitude. Furthermore, although externally the problem is not yet solved, you must give a prayer of gratitude with confidence that it will be internally solved. Always have the heart of gratitude, and please live a life where you can have a give and take action with God and True Parents.

God told me, 'Let's extend 20 more minutes to today's Holy Song Session'. Those who didn't attend the Purification Azalea Festival are receiving this grace on the foundation of those people who attended the Purification Azalea Festival. Bringing the Absolute Good Spirits with Him, God is saying that He will give you great blessings. At the Holy Song Session, it won't be done by your own hands but by God's strength, love and blessings.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming today. Please receive many blessings from God, have joy in every respect of your daily life, always attend God and True Parents, be filial sons and daughters, and divine sons and daughters. Gamsahamnida.
