The Words of the Sun Myung Moon from 2012 |
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
"The harmonious unification of Heaven and earth comes when two entities cooperate together (둘이 협력해서 하늘 땅이 화홥 통일야). There can't be the unification when they are separate. They should harmoniously interact (화통이야 / 和通이야)."
"Every entity, becoming the 'individual embodiment of truth (개성진리체 / 個性眞理體)' and forming the relationship of the subject and object partners, need to receive the tradition of the creation and be connected in the blood lineage. That is the so-called 'Blessing.'" What is the Blessing (축복 / 祝福)? 祝 consists of 示 which means 'to show,' and 兄 which means 'elder brother.' 福 consists of 示 which means 'to show,' 口 which means a big mouth, and 田 which means the cosmos. So the Blessing means to restore the fortune of the elder brother, and the father that stands at the center of the cosmos. That's why you shouldn't forget the 'Restoration of the fatherland (조국광복 / 祖國光復)". We have to restore it. Where did the original fatherland (조국원복) go? We make it clear and then harmoniously interact (그것을 풀어서 화통하는 거야)."
"East and West are pressed from the top and pushed up from the bottom."
"Anyone who is left-handed can't be married. Do you know that?"
(Katsumi: I remember Father once said the left hand is close to the heart and so if one is left-handed, their hearts are always under shock and would get damaged through the left hand.)
"The East and the West are opposite. In the East, it is from the top to the bottom, and in the West it is from left to right."
"What is 'Las Vegas?' 'Las' means something plural. 'Vegas' means beggars.
[Vegas actually means meadows in Spanish. Could Father mean that Vegas sounds like Vagrant in English?].
You don't know but the words must be correctly interpreted like this, and this is what the True Parents of Heaven, Earth and Humankind do."
(Katsumi: Father is right in a sense that 'Las' is the plural form of 'La,' which is 'the' in Spanish. But in the past Father has interpreted 'Las' as large.' I think this is one of the most important features in Father's linguistic life: he defines and creates the words according to given circumstances. I think this is related to Father's recent comments that 'substance / 실체' comes before '말씀 / words.')
"If anyone who has received the tradition and blood lineage of parents doesn't resemble their parents, they are false. They can't go to heaven. This is a clear conclusion."
"Men must be married before they are 23 years old."
"'The restoration of the fatherland (조국광복 / 祖國光復). Why does God's fatherland see the light again?
(Katsumi: '光' means 'light,' and '復' means 'restoration.')
There hasn't been such a phrase. You must be able to interpret this."
"The God of Night and the God of Day couldn't have the wedding ceremony yet. Jesus' spirit appeared to a boy called Yong Myung Moon when he was 17 years old. He knew my name. Jesus said to me, 'Let's go receive the Blessing.' We met each other for the first time, but those were his first words to me. (Raising his voice) '이 자식, 너 누구야! (You fool! Who are you?) Do you know the God of Night and the God of Day have been separate? How dare you come to me saying such a thing?' (Jesus said) 'I have been preparing this and there has been a person in my mind as your wife.' I was 17 years old, and didn't decide that time (나 결정 안했어). Any boy who became 17 years old and hadn't thought of marriage, can't become a man. When they become 14, or 15 years old, they realize there is man and there is woman."
"Those who are different in temperature (온도) and speed (속도) can't become united."
