Note: These notes are taken from a simultaneous translation. Simultaneous translation is done in summary form and depends greatly on the translator's ability to communicate the essence of the message. These cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication on Rev. Moon's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message.
We are all part of the first, second, third, or fourth Israel. The first Israel should serve the second Israel, the second Israel should serve the third Israel, and the third Israel should be connected to the fourth Israel.
Just because we shake hands doesn't mean we are connected. All things must be connected to each other. If we eat the same kind of vegetables, that doesn't mean we are the same. We have to be connected through lineage. Unification blessed families should not change. You should be connected to the central root, with one blood lineage. You must pull and push: that way you can make a circular motion, North and South, East and West.
This world is so divided. How will we bring the world together? It will be done by heart and love. You cannot just let any person go; you must go beyond individualism. If you have any concept of fighting, you cannot bring harmony. If you want to lead, you have to be willing to go down to the bottom and serve. This is the law and the principle. Otherwise there will be no fruit.
Although there are so many trees, there must be one central bud or root. How many branches do we have? Relationships with the father, grandfather, husband, wife and children are very important. The relationship of heart cannot be accomplished alone.
God doesn't have any feelings of revenge. If we shed blood, we can never overcome barriers. The Fall happened and turned all relationships upside down. Satan wants to be on top. His method is to kill and eliminate all opposition. We go back to one fundamental principle: There cannot be two centers, only one. There must be one root.
Whether it takes 7, 21, or 40 years [for the fruit to mature] it doesn't matter. It will be the same. The root should be one; after 7 years, it should bear fruit. Now we are in the realm of the fourth Adam's heart. We should be different from the past.
We should be able to look in not only 4 directions but actually 8 directions. At True Children's Day, we long for True Parents to come. One thousand years from now, the fruit will be the same, centering on True Parents. When we established the Abel UN on September 23, we had 194 nations. However, there must be one central root and one central point.
You must be connected to the central root. The chosen people are no longer the central root. The central root must be the center. The central root must be linked by lineage to God. You have to really learn the language that True Parents want you to learn. True Parents are the ones who came to give you their inheritance.
If you want to be individualistic, it is not good. If there is one pine tree, it cannot be the center; it is only part of the whole. You have to be connected to the central seed and central root. Everyone is divided from each other. In America there are so many different denominations and religions. They are all divided because of the false love brought by the Fall.
Though there are 6.5 billion people on the earth, there is only one true man and true woman. The reason we came here all together today is because heaven and earth came together here. Centering on the Word, everyone must be engrafted to the central root. We should live for and invest in each other. That is why we must have an international and inter-religious blessing. There must be only one root and one seed.
Everything expands from the center. All together, the central root is one. It is not politics or power. It is all connected to one heart; if you have two hearts, your heart is already divided. It is connected to heart. Why did you come here today? Tomorrow is True Children's Day, but you don't come automatically. Because of True Parents' Day, we can have True Children's Day. Hana Nim means one being. There is one being in whom we center and devote ourselves. That is God.
The animal world has variety and can change color for protection. The polar, black and brown bears are from the same root. They are different in appearance because of a different environment. But they are still bears. How about human beings? It's the same. No matter what the color, we are all from the same original Adam and Eve. Who killed all the Indians? Primarily the British people wiped out the Indians. But they are all from the same seed.
As a good blessed person, you should be investing in others so that they might grow. If there is a new seed, we should be able to grow together because we are coming from one blood lineage. When we are willing to deny ourselves, then there will be understanding and harmony, like inhaling and exhaling. The central root, the central trunk, the central concept: All three must come to exist. Without the root, we cannot exist.
We talk about heart; we have to live for the sake of others. The way I go will never perish. Where is the planet Earth going to go? There can be only one Principle. This is how you can go to the Kingdom of Heaven. That is why I can use the term Hey Bong and Seok Bong. Sometimes I cannot breathe because I am so intense. Some universal force is working. You are coming from all different backgrounds and skin colors; still you have to follow all of my words.
If you don't succeed by the age of 56 you will go on for the rest of your life in the pattern you set. Age 48 and under is still considered young in God's eyes. You must pattern yourself after True Parents, centering on God's word.
Today is a completely new day. Yesterday we made the historic proclamation of the realm of the fourth Adam. Today is a new dispensational day. Today you should look completely different from the way you looked yesterday. You can become the core of all beings. If the heart is not given properly, you can create a lot of problems. That's why it is said in the world that you shouldn't easily give your heart to others or you will get hurt.
"The realm of the heart of the fourth Adam" which began yesterday, is a realm of heart in which nothing is like the past. Don't look back. This is not a realm of power, politics, or otherwise. This is a realm in which we must win over people's hearts. We must save Cain, and we must do this through love.
How about America? How can America restore the fact that it pushed me back into Korea? Even East Garden was not built with American money. It could have been in 9 years, but instead it took 12 years. America didn't help.
The Chung Seong Gyeong is distilled from 400 volumes of books. (To Dr. Kaufman) are you white or black? (I don't know) Good answer. You are mixed. What if there was a cream that could make white people black and black people white? It would sell! Skin color comes from the environment - it is not absolute.
How do you feel when True Parents are gone - empty or not? (Empty). Why? Because when the children come home and the parents aren't there, it doesn't feel full. When the children come home, they feel totally different if their mother is home. That's how it is with the parents and the heart of the family.
The era after the coming of heaven was established on May 5, 2004. Now we have 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007. So many indemnity conditions have been accomplished in these four years.
I have no secretary and no office. Yet I was able to completely change the world. I was not properly treated in America. White people did not accept me. I endured that indignation. I wanted to react to them and reject them, but I did not.
I already inaugurated the Abel UN, but just because it was founded doesn't make it the Abel UN. But I can do things that will make it work. How can we do this so that it represents the fourth Adam's heart? America did not support me. I will make a final proclamation based on a key family here; if they can't accept it, it won't work.
I need to make a special condition here in America. Should I just go back without giving a special blessing? I was rejected, but I am still trying to bring victory to this nation.
