The Words of Sun Myung Moon from 2011 |
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 Father's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message. -- Rev. Katsumi Kambashi
Mrs. McDevitt read Father's speech from his speech book # 26, titled "Let's Have Love that God can Recognize."
"The (History of) Rev. Moon in Las Vegas will never disappear because there remain traces of my tears here."
"Examine my history. When you compare what I did before and what I am doing now, (you will understand) the only difference is that my current task is larger in scope but I have never retreated. It is more complicated now and is never easy."
"Do you say you cannot sleep since you could not eat dinner? Before going to bed, while repenting with tears that you could not offer enough Jeong Seong that day, pray, 'Heavenly Father, I still have energy to go forward tomorrow and so I go to bed now, skipping dinner for tonight.' You would say how good it is to go to bed after being able to eat dinner. But I would say how painful it is to eat and go to bed. When I am raising the spoon in my hand towards my mouth, it does not go there but moves outward. It wants to go to someone outside who is starving. So do not take for granted a sleepless night, and take it as your destiny. Parents live that way and that is the world of Jeong (emotion, love or heart)." "Heaven often leads me like the mirage in the air. (For example) A flying bird says to me, 'Hey, you should not take a rest here. At the other side of the slope someone is waiting for you, so go there."
"The words I said when I was a child, which you can find in my speeches, were amazing. How could I say such words? It is not me that said those words."
"The God of Night I am attending to is not true yet. The final settled point is still far in the path that True Parents have to go through, forgetting like a dream the world that the God of Night and the God of Day wanted to have. It would be better to give up now rather than do it later. It is difficult to go. The name of the God of Night is Oh Dook Shin.
(Katsumi: 'Oh Dook Shin' is the North Korean term which means something that does not exist but seems so).
There has not been the intersection yet that I can understand. ...will say without fail, 'You finally came here. It has been hard for you, hasn't it?' I will say, 'You know what it is. I would rather run away.' He will say, I will wait for you in prayer even for thousands of years." Have you not liberated your ancestors of 210 generations yet? You have not done it yet. I, as True Father, have to offer ancestral rites, but the day for it did not come yet. I cannot have the place where True Parents can be liberated. From inside, I hear a voice saying, 'If you are mature enough, just stay calm. It's hard but be patient and wait. Why not?' So I say, 'I understand.' (For example) When I was in England, I wanted to escape from there, and did so in every place I went. Even in Las Vegas I have been to many places such as the Hoover Dam, but I do not want to live in any of those places, as instead I can see only defects there."
