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
Father, with his eyes closed, flipped his speech file and pointed on the opened page, and then read that paragraph. By doing so a couple of times, he made comments on what he read.
Yesterday, Father held Hoon Dok Hae with 172 ministers from the US for six hours and half and flew here to meet you. Father wants to see you trainees of the Ocean workshop. We are just following him, rather attending to him. What Father said yesterday was firstly 'do not do birth control.' Secondly, to start Wonmo Peace and Love Foundation, we must donate $3.2 million. Thirdly, centering on the foundation, we must educate 13,000 people (in each country.) Father also said we must prepare for True Parents' wedding ceremony, which will be held next year and also for the Foundation Day in 2013. Father had 12 Koreans, who came back from Geomundo to the Cheon Jeong Gung by Father's helicopter, and 12 Americans, who represent 172 faith leaders, made a sisterhood relation and told the Koreans to go to the US to implant Korean surnames in the American families and their relatives.
In 2006 there was the ceremony of True Parents' entering the Palace on June 13, 2013 and four True Grandchildren had the Blessing ceremony on Aug. 28. Father specially invited several members from Yeosu to the Cheon Jeong Gung for the ceremonies. I would like to share what I heard from Captain Insook Kim who was one of them.
After the wedding ceremony, Father was very busy with the meeting with the international leaders and other things, though he told those who came from Yeosu to stay. Captain Kim thought to participate at the ceremony itself was a honor for them and was curious why Father told them to wait.
(When Father met them) Father said to them giving some money that it would take time to go back to Yeosu and so eat well and go back safely. Then Father said to them, 'When you meet Japanese wives, teach them well how to sail the boat. You know I am the only hope for them. They came to Korea to be married following my direction, and I have to make their path open. For them to survive, I want to give them ocean training and teach them how to sail. So with your whole heart teach them how to sail the boat. To go to the ocean is the only way to survive. Races and descendants who dislike the ocean cannot help but perish. Human comes out of water. I know all the situations the Japanese wives face.'
I, as the church leader in the front line, have seen many miserable situations (of the Japanese wives), many of which I can't tell without tears. There are divorced ones, physically abused wives, and some wives came to become mentally challenged. (Sniffle of the participants) Others ended up receiving welfare, living a life with financial difficulties. Father knows all those situations. Father said to the Captain, 'I have to save them and open the path for them and so teach them well how to sail the boat.' Those who came from Yeoso, putting their heads down without being able to say a word, made a promise in their mind in front of Father.
When children shed tears, parents who see them shed tears of blood. That is the love of True Parents, and Father always says he must do father's responsibility for all 7.5 billion of humankind. Every time Father has some time, he, without taking a rest, says 'I have to go to Yeosu and see the trainees there.'
As I said, I am not attending but merely physically following Father, and so I am so sorry for him. Some say Father likes fishing and they do not know Father's situation. I went fishing with Father at the Hoover dam, Pantanal, Kodiak, Hawaii and so on, but I have never seen that Father went to his room on the boat to sleep. The other day after Father held Hoon Dok Hae of 22 hours and half, flew to Geomundo and went fishing, and he later slept curled up for about an hour. I am so sorry for Father who has to lead such a life.
We are the most fortunate people who are with such parents. We need to prepare True Parents wedding ceremony and the Foundation day through liberating 210 generations of our ancestors, distributing 430 copies of Father's autobiography and becoming the Tribal Messiah restoring at least 12 people from Abel and Cain tribes."
