Language is one of the most chal-
lenging problems. When Koreans are
here, those who do not know Korean
have a difficult time. They look pitiful.
How great it would be if language were
unified! When I first came to America,
I only knew “Yes” and “No,” although I
had studied English through books. Can
you imagine how stifled I felt! You need
to know how necessary the unification
of language is. Do you wish to listen to
my speeches through an interpreter or
directly from me? Of course, you want to
listen to them in Korean. Why? Because
Korean is the original language. There-
fore, in studying the Principle, if you
do not know the original language, you
will not understand the meaning of the
words. Furthermore, when you go to
the spirit world in the future, will you
be proud if you can say, “I understood
Father’s speeches directly, without trans-
lation” or if you have to say, “I listened
to his words through an interpreter?”
Which? Moreover, they are words that
express the ideal world of love. Does it
mean anything to whisper words of love
through an interpreter? The fifth para-
graph of our former pledge says, “We are
proud of the one culture.” The question
is how that one culture can come about.
You should know that in the world of
heart you have no choice but to become
one. The one who truly desires one world
of heart cannot go without knowing
this. Now, when you reach out to some-
one because you love them so much,
your feet move first before any thoughts
about love. Your feet move first, and not
the loving thought. How foolish this is! If
you think about eating in the same way,
it is as though you enjoyed eating left-
overs. Without the tradition and spirit
of the ideal family the ideal world can-
not appear.

Originally, amid the greatest joy,
both Adam and Eve should have dis-
played the highest vitality, combined
the greatest energy, and even demon-
strated the power of the ideals of all
creation. In such a place the flower of
love should bloom. Thus, by blossom-
ing like a flower, love’s fragrance would
have overflowed into the entire uni-
verse. God dreamt of such love in which
He could gaze at that flower, smell its
fragrance and be enraptured with it.
(104-44, 1979.3.28)

World Scripture and the Teachings of
Sun Myung Moon

Part 1
God and Creation

Chapter 1
God
Transcendent Reality

Transcendence is an essential attribute of the Absolute Being. God’s glory fills the world, but the world cannot exhaust God. God is the Ground of Being and the Source of energy within every atom and the life of all creatures. He is the center of the universe and holds all things together. Yet God’s involvement in the world in no way limits or affects His transcendence and absoluteness. How can finite human beings connect with the transcendent God? Some passages recommend that we apply the principle of transcendence in our daily life, by overcoming the limitations of nation and race in our dealings with others. Others speak of getting in touch with the deepest part of our own mind, where the Absolute Being chooses to make His dwelling place.

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory. Isaiah 6.3

God! there is no God but He, the Living, the Everlasting. Slumber seizes Him not, neither sleep; to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. Who is there who shall intercede with Him save by His leave? He knows what lies before them and what is after them, and they comprehend not anything of His knowledge save such as He wills. His throne comprises the heavens and earth; the preserving of them oppresses Him not; He is the All-high, the All-glorious. Qur’an 2.255: The Throne Verse

Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand and marked off the heavens with a span, enclosed the dust of the earth in a measure and weighed the mountains in scales and the hills in a balance? Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord, or as his counselor has instructed him? Whom did he consult for his enlightenment, and who taught him the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and showed him the way of understanding? Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are accounted as the dust on the scales… All the nations are as nothing before him, they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness. Isaiah 40.12-17

The Supreme Being is thousand-headed, Thousand eyed, thousand footed; Pervading the earth on all sides, He exists beyond the ten directions. The Supreme Being, indeed, is all this, What has been and what will be, The Lord of immortality As well as of mortal creatures. Such is his magnificence, but The Supreme Being is even greater than this; All beings are a fourth of him, Three-fourths—his immortality—lie in heaven. Three-fourths of the Supreme Being ascended; The fourth part came here again and again, Diversified in form, it moved To the animate and the inanimate world. Rig Veda 10.90.1-4 (Hinduism)

Thou art the fire Thou art the sun Thou art the air Thou art the moon Thou art the starry firmament Thou art Brahman Supreme; Thou art the waters—thou, the Creator of all! Thou art woman, thou art man, Thou art the youth, thou art the maiden, Thou art the old man tottering with his staff; Thou facest everywhere. Thou art the dark butterfly, Thou art the green parrot with red eyes, Thou art the thundercloud, the seasons, the seas. Without beginning art thou, Beyond time and space. Thou art he from whom sprang The three worlds. Svetasvatara Upanishad 4.2-4 (Hinduism)

The Self is one. Ever still, the Self is Swifter than thought, swifter than the senses. Though motionless, He outruns all pursuit. Without the Self, never could life exist. The Self seems to move, but is ever still. He seems far away, but is ever near. He is within all, and He transcends all. The Self is everywhere. Bright is the Self, Indivisible, untouched by sin, wise, Immanent and transcendent. He it is who holds the cosmos together. Isha Upanishad 4-8 (Hinduism )

There was something undifferentiated and yet complete, which existed before heaven and earth. Soundless and formless, it depends on nothing and does not change. It operates everywhere and is free from danger. It may be considered the mother of the universe. I do not know its name; I call it Tao. If forced to give it a name, I shall call it Great. Being great means functioning everywhere. Functioning everywhere means far-reaching. Being far-reaching means returning to the original point. Tao Te Ching 25 (Taoism)

Divinity existed before the appearance of heaven and earth and gives form to them; it surpasses the yin and the yang, yet has the quality of them. Divinity is thus the absolute existence, governing the entire universe. Yet at the same time it dwells within all things, where it is called spirit; omnipresent within human beings, it is called mind. In other words, the human mind communes with Divinity, which is ruler of heaven and earth; mind and Divinity are one and the same. Divinity is the root origin of heaven and earth, the spiritual nature of all things, and the source of human destiny. Itself without form, Divinity nurtures things with form. Kanetomo Yoshida, An Outline of Shinto

Beyond the senses is the mind, beyond the mind is the intellect, higher than the intellect is the Great Atman [the original mind], higher than the Great Atman is the Umanifest. Beyond the Unmanifest is the Person, all-pervading, and imperceptible.11 Katha Upanishad 2.3.7-8 (Hinduism)

Buddha abides in the infinite, the unobstructed, ultimate realm of reality, in the realm of space, in the essence of True Thusness, without birth or death, and in ultimate truth… How should enlightening beings see the body of Buddha? (Dharmakaya) They should see the body of Buddha in infinite places. Why? They should not see Buddha in just one thing, one phenomenon, one body, one land, one being—they should see Buddha everywhere. Just as space is omnipresent, in all places, material or immaterial, yet without either arriving or not arriving there, because space is incorporeal, in the same way Buddha is omnipresent, in all places, in all beings, in all things, in all lands, yet neither arriving nor not arriving there, because Buddha’s body is incorporeal, manifesting a body for the sake of sentient beings.12 Garland Sutra 37 (Buddhism)

The Way is like an empty vessel That yet may be drawn from Without ever needing to be filled. It is bottomless; the very progenitor of all things in the world. In it all sharpness is blunted, All tangles untied, All glare tempered, All dust smoothed. It is like a deep pool that never dries. Tao Te Ching 4 (Taoism)

What kind of family is the family of
True Parents? The family of True Par-
ents is a fruit of history, the center of the
age, and the origin of the future. Hence,
when our world becomes the heaven-
ly kingdom of hope in the future, True
Parents’ entire lives will be the origin of
its traditions. This is the original source
of the national ideology. Also, this is the
original point from which to establish
that world. You should always estab-
lish the three-generation realm with
True Parents, based on the connection
as children of True Parents. The three
generations are God, Parents and you.
Horizontally, there are also three gen-
erations: I myself, my own children and
you. Heaven and earth will not be uni-
fied until these three generations have
been completed. (44-169, 1971.5.6)

Are you married? Do you have hus-
bands? When animals are in heat and
yearning for a mate they go out in search
of their mates by scent and not sight. Sim-
ilarly, you need to initiate a great physi-
ological revolution. But due to the Fall,
we have not yet reached the standard of
using all our senses. What is lovemaking
like for animals? You watched the mov-
ie earlier today, didn’t you? In the Dong
River located in Gangwon Province you
can find Hemibarbus mylodon, a type of
fish with no sexual organs. There is a line
running through the body of the fish,
and that is their sexual organ. When the
females give off their odor in heat, the
males rub their bodies against the line
on the bodies of the females, and there is
a spark. Then the males secrete seminal
fluid. It is truly amazing. How are they
able to lay eggs in water? That is how
they make love. (301-195, 1999.4.26)

Formless, Invisible, Mystery

Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon

You cannot see God even in the spirit world. Can you see energy? God is the original source of energy. Therefore, even in the spirit world He cannot be seen. (105:193, October 21, 1979)

God is formless. He is infinitely greater than any concept of bigness and infinitesimally smaller than any concept of smallness. (35:157, October 13, 1970)

What is the shape of love? If love had a certain shape, like a square, then it could only accommodate a square-shaped person. But because love is like the air, without shape or form, it can fill any shape or form. Love can be sometimes round, sometimes thin. It can be stretched like an elastic thread, even thousands of miles. Yet love never complains, “I’m already too stretched. Don’t pull me any more!” Love always has the attitude, “Pull me more. Stretch me further.” That is opposite from, “Too much! Stop it!” Even if the love thread breaks, God would want to keep unwinding it from its spool. That love string will pull God and stretch Him out. Even if God felt pain at this, His “Ouch!” would be a joyful one. (167:115, July 1, 1987)

How heavy do you think God is? How many kilograms does He weigh? A hundred billion tons? Were God that heavy, He would have a serious problem trying to move around. Rather, it is ideal that God is invisible. Even if you carried Him inside your wallet, you would not feel any weight. Being invisible, God can pass through the eye of even the smallest needle. He can move around at will. Being infinitely large yet also infinitely small, He can freely move about anywhere in the universe. (136:106)

You should be grateful that God is invisible. If you could see Him [as He commented on your every action and every word], you would have a nervous breakdown and would be dead within an hour. This is no laughing matter. I tell you this from my own poignant experience. (38:244)

God is very smart. He thought, “The most convenient way to exercise My sovereignty is to be invisible. Then I can do as I wish without being seen or caught by anyone.” Despite not having a body, “it is enough,” He considered, that I can fulfill my duty as the Lord.” Suppose God had a body. If He said to the cosmos, whose span is 21 billion light years, “Come to my bosom and rest inside of Me,” could God do His duty? Imagine the vast distances! How long would it take God’s mind to reach His body? God could foresee that He would be miserable. Having conceived all possibilities, God decided to take dominion as a formless, invisible existence. Being invisible, God can move about at His convenience. Moreover, nobody feels troubled when God travels about the physical world. Even if God were to step on your body, you would not notice. How convenient! It is simple logic that God chose to be an invisible God because that resulted in the most convenience…

You have to become a person who
can establish the homeland, bring glo-
ry to that homeland, live immersed in
that homeland, and be able to die in
that homeland. Before this time, there
was no one who could come in front of
Heaven and take responsibility. This is
a solemn responsibility that can be ful-
filled only once and only at a given time
in history; it cannot be approached care-
lessly. When you hear something once,
you may think of ten things that are
different from what you heard. But you
must go forward, taking that one thing
you heard and compare it with those
different things. For heavenly fortune
to appear here, you must have the con-
viction not to be concerned even if the
path brings you face to face with utter
disgrace a thousand times, or if you die
hundreds of times. If you go forward
with this kind of conviction, God will
protect the path you are taking.

Section 1. The Settlement of the Victorious Domain of True Parents

1.1 Ceremony of the Settlement of the Eight Stages: restoration of the right of the eldest son, right of the parent and right of kingship
August 31, 1989 Kodiak, Alaska

Now that the vertical and horizon-
tal eight-stage indemnity has all been
completed, the Ceremony of the Settle-
ment of the Eight Stages could be per-
formed on August 31, 1989, in Alaska,
the most northerly location in the West.
It is the northernmost place. On the first
day of September, I declared “the ideol-
ogy centered on the Heavenly Father”
at the same place. The ideology cen-
tered on the Heavenly Father is simul-
taneously the ideology of salvation by
love as well as the ideology of parental
love. This parent-centered ideology is all
about a life lived by giving love. Satan
cannot oppose anything based on love.
If he cannot oppose the path taken by
the Unification Church, we can rapidly
expand worldwide. (199-157, 1990.2.16)

The One God

Teachings of Sun Myung Moon

What is the source of all beings? God, the One Being, unique and absolute. (262:51, July 23, 1994)

What is the one true existence in heaven and earth? He is the Absolute Being. The Korean language refers to Him as the Only Being, the Owner and Lord, which when abbreviated is “The One Lord” (Hananim), God.8 (39:302, January 16, 1971)

God is called by many different names, yet regardless of what names He is called, there cannot be many gods. Since the origin is only one, there can be only one God. Due to the many different languages of the world, there are many different names for God. Yet God, the original entity, is only One. The purpose that God pursues is manifested through religions. Hence, no matter how many religions exist, their purpose is one—the peace of the Kingdom of Heaven. (210:199-200, December 23, 1990)

All the ‘absolute beings’ worshiped until now are not different gods, but actually one and the same God. Each religion’s theology grasps but an aspect of God’s attributes. A correct understanding of the entirety of God clarifies that all religions are brothers, all established by the one God. (122:304, November 25, 1982)

Each religion has an absolute being as a basis for its doctrine. The absolute being of Judaism is Jehovah, of Christianity, God, and of Islam, Allah. Confucianism and Buddhism do not specify an absolute being. However, because the basic Confucian virtue of benevolence (jen) is linked to the mandate of Heaven, Heaven may be regarded as the absolute being in Confucianism. Buddhism teaches that all phenomena are in constant change while the truth is found in the ‘Suchness’ that lies behind all phenomena.9 Thus, Suchness functions as the absolute being of Buddhism. (122:301, November 25, 1982)

The basic cause of religious conflict lies in the ambiguity of their doctrines about Ultimate Reality. The Absolute Being is only one; there cannot be two absolute beings. However, when the leaders of each religion claim that only their absolute being is the true God, it leads to the contradiction that there is more than one absolute being. We would then conclude that the god of each religion is only a relative god, and that there is no basis for believing that the Absolute Being exists. Consequently, although God has been promoting through the various religions a universal teaching about God’s love and truth, their various perspectives remain only relative. We can conclude that religions have been incapable of establishing the absolute value perspective that can bring the prevailing confusion under control. This is the inevitable result of the fact that no religion has been able to present the correct explanation about the Absolute Being. (122:300-01, November 25, 1982)

Each religion has pride in its own teachings and jealously guards its traditions, regarding itself as superior to all others. However, religious teaching has universal elements, which come from God. The one God is the God of all religions. Therefore, religions should purify themselves and elevate themselves through universal principles. The central value in religion is true love, which we can sum up by the teaching, “Live for the sake of others.” The individual lives for the sake of the family; the family lives for the sake of the community; the community lives for the sake of the nation; the nation lives for the sake of the world. Likewise, my religion should live for the sake of other religions. This is the principle of principles. The source of this universal principle is God. In creating the universe, God invested Himself totally for the sake of His creatures. Throughout history, God has been continually sacrificing Himself in order to save fallen human beings, who have been living just as they desire. The prophets, saints and sages who knew God’s will have followed this divine principle in their own lives. (234:222, August 20, 1992)

In God’s way of thinking, there is no concept of an enemy. If there were, it would imply Dualism (two origins). Because God does not have such a concept, He does not fight. (225:123, January 5, 1992)

You must have a clear concept of
True Parents. Are you indebted to True
Parents or not? There is no way you can
pay the debt. If you calculate your debt,
it is impossible to pay. But you can pay
off everything with just a small sign of
your love. This is what we need. (116-121,
1981.12.27)

Cheong Seong Gyeong 1418

The most important work of the
Unification Church today is the Bless-
ing bestowed upon you as couples. The
Blessing of couples is the seed of love
planted by God in Adam’s couple. As
such, it should be disseminated.
All of you gathered here know what
cell reproduction is, don’t you? In that
tiny cell is contained the whole tree, is
it not? When you sow it, a whole tree
grows from it. The roots, branches,
leaves, stems, flowers – in fact, all parts
that make up a tree are contained in that
cell. The conceptual blueprint is con-
tained in it.
Couples are blessed to become the
embodiments of True Parents, and
through their children, reach out to the
nation and world, becoming its roots; just
as the roots and leaves of a tree absorb
essential elements and control the tree’s
carbon assimilation and the separation
of elements from the air, Blessed Fami-
lies should perform similar functions. A
tree takes in carbon dioxide and releas-
es oxygen to its surroundings. Isn’t that
strange? How can it do that? That is an
expression of the harmony and beauty
of creation. The universe is a world of
love – it is not a cold-hearted and deso-
late place, but an enclosure of love. Just
as the seeds are all wrapped in a shell,
God also wants to reside in that realm of
love that is the universe – the enclosure
of love – with His plus and minus dual
characteristics.
For God to dwell enwrapped in the
universe of love, there must be unity in
love between Him as the subject and the
universe as His object. He can only be
enveloped by the love that is shared by
the two sides in the process of giving and
receiving. That is why love is eternal and
great. It is also boundless. Wouldn’t you
want to rest in such a place? The con-
clusion is the same. That is the seed of
God’s love. You must return to that seed.

3. Evidence of God in History
Teachings of Rev. Sun Myung Moon.

The Absolute Being is not conceptual, but rather a real existence who has been revealing Himself throughout human history. The saints, sages and religious leaders who appeared at various times and places have, without exception, appealed to the human conscience and heart, urging the people to practice love of neighbor. When the people responded and followed their teachings, they and their nations enjoyed peace and prosperity; but when they refused, they fell into confusion and decline. Even in today’s confusion and chaos, humankind is waiting, consciously or unconsciously, for the appearance of modern saints and sages who will reveal the path of love. All this shows that the Absolute Being is a real existence who operates behind the scenes of history. He is the Subject of love, who has worked through saints, sages and religious leaders of every age. He works to fulfill His plan: to establish a world of moral values, a world where love is the norm. (69:238, November 21, 1973)

Richard: The modern day saints are the couples, or Tribal Messiahs, who have been Blessed in marriage by Rev. and Mrs. Sun Myung Moon. When they take up the mission of Home Church, they can spread the New Truth and the Blessing to the world.

In my background there were many
incidents that evoked indignation at
unjust treatment. Although many were
very terrible to endure, I clenched my
teeth and focused on occupying Cain’s
world. I had to digest the Cain world
rather than merely Cain as an individ-
ual and his family. How bitter this has
been! It was as if I had to melt something
as frigid and huge as an iceberg. Digest-
ing this bitterness, I have had to silently
bring Satan to submission. He has been
our arch enemy since time immemori-
al. He brought God and humankind to
ruin. (163-163, 1987.5.1

Richard: We can get through the current situation with forbearance. None the less, we have to realize how the enemy Satan is working and defeat him with the New Truth and lifting up families through the Blessing of Marriage. Note that God gave this same Rheama just four days ago.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1494

Even though the ideal and love
are more precious than life to human
beings, the people of today believe that
such things come from themselves. This
misunderstanding must be cleared up.
Where do love and the ideal come from?
They come from one’s reciprocal part-
ner. That being the case, a law of liv-
ing for the sake of others needed to be
established. Since God, who is the King
of wisdom, anticipated the present con-
sequences, He could not help but estab-
lish such a law. (73-326, 1974.8.10)

Richard: Is God saying here that He anticipated such a crisis as today, and that we need to embrace His truth? Yes!

2. Evidence for God within the Self

Teachings of Sun Myung Moon

Before I came into being, God exists. Before I was able to think about God, God exists. God rules over my whole being, including my senses. This is the most important key to understanding. It is a principle that experience precedes understanding. We do not know what cold is until we feel cold. First we feel the cold weather, and consequently we form a notion of cold. Likewise, to know that God exists, you should feel His presence in your very cells. To what degree do you experience God? To what degree does your actual experience confirm God’s existence? That is the question. (58:291-92, June 25, 1972)

God is alive; so is the Devil. How do you know that God exists, or that the Devil exists? Communism and philosophy in general raises this question. It is the philosophical argument of idealism versus realism. In the latter perspective, anything invisible is not real, but merely an abstract idea. Even the conscience is thought of as a mere concept. It is the same with love. Love is also an abstract idea from that point of view, yet in truth, love is not an idea. Love connects with everything in our actual life. (186:67, January 29, 1989)

Do you have love? Do you have life? Do you have lineage and conscience? Then, have you ever seen love? Can you see life, lineage or conscience? You know these exist, but you must acknowledge that you cannot see or touch them. You know them because you sense them with your mind. A similar logic applies to the question of whether God exists, or whether a person can see God. Anyone can recognize God and confirm that He exists. Once God comes into your heart, your heart knows Him. (May 1, 2004)

Just as you understand the true meaning of filial piety only after having your own children, you can sense the value of your faith and experience the concrete existence of God only after you have put your faith into practice. (29:198, February 28, 1970)

Had humans not fallen, no one would question whether God exists. Each of us would know the answer through our original minds. Had humans been born from good parents whose original nature was fully developed, they would know God’s existence naturally from birth. Doesn’t a baby emerge from the womb knowing how to suck its mother’s breasts? When the newborn is presented with the breast it begins sucking instinctively. Likewise, had the Human Fall not occurred, we would instinctively know God. Firmly relating with God, we would know how to solve any problem and understand the right path to follow. However, because of the Fall, that original relationship was forgotten. Humankind created a world in which people doubt the existence of God. This is, indeed, a miserable situation. (20:306-07, July 14, 1968)

Just as an electron revolves around a proton, human beings are made to revolve around God. God can pursue the providence for restoration because the human mind, as an electron, naturally relates to God’s mind as its nucleus, its proton. Hence, when we search for the truth, even all by ourselves, we begin to feel the vibration of God’s life and the harmony of God’s love. (2:137, March 17, 1957)

What is the world we long for in our hearts? It is not the world that we perceive through the outward five senses. Nor is it a world created by concepts. We long for the world of heart, filled with God’s love. In that world, we can feel the love of God in even the smallest subatomic particle. You must experience this world. Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear will hear.” You cannot experience this multi-dimensional, transcendent world with your everyday feelings. (7:255, September 20, 1959)

God’s true homeland is the spirit world… If you want to truly know God, first know the spirit world where God lives and works. (365:302, January 14, 2002)
