Note: These notes are taken from a Peace TV video clip. They cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication of True Parent's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message. -- Rev. Katsumi Kambashi

Glad to see you all. (Big applause) Please be seated. A long time has already passed since we started. You have heard Hoon Dok words and a good sermon (by Rev. Jeong Ok Yoo). You also watched a video clip (regarding True Mother's bus trip from Las Vegas to New York) and listened to a good report (by Rev. Chang Shik Yang.) Do you still need my words? ('Yes!')

When one has a new pencil or fountain pen, they, even having become adults, like to write something. I think everybody does it. From my childhood, strangely enough I've liked to write the word '통일' (Unification). When I think back, I guess the word 통일(Unification) has been of help to me for a long time.

Our ultimate goal to complete Cheon Il Guk, centered on God, can only start from oneself. According to Father, the Kingdom of Heaven can be established when two people become one. I think the most basic thing we need to practice in our life of faith is to unite our mind and body.

That's why I said this: Before you criticize if things are right or wrong, you should start with the words 'Heavenly Father, thank you.' Those who can say these words from the bottom of their heart without making any kind of adjustments are the people who are spiritually matured (도가 통한 사람), are they not? ('Yes.')

If you can stand on the unified base on individual and familial levels, in the church, in your tribe, in your nation and the world, one unified world centering on God will be automatically realized, will it not? Those who are determined to live such a life, clap your hands. (All did so.) If you live with such a mind-set, Heaven will always be with you and heavenly fortune will come to all things you do. Thank you."
