Chambumo Gyeong - 309. Asia
True Father arrived in New Delhi on September 7,1965. In addition to India, he visited eight other Asian countries and established holy grounds in each. In New Delhi, True Father met with Sir Anthony Brooke, from the Sarawak ruling family, who was also staying there. From the 12th, Father took time to view sites in the city of Calcutta and then visited Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Hong Kong and the Republic of China (Taiwan) until September 28. After Father arrived in Japan on September 29, he visited Nikko on October 1 and Hakone on the 5th, and spoke about Japan's mission as the Eve nation. On September 6 he climbed Mt. Fuji. True Father returned to Korea on October 10, having been away for 256 days. 46 The last time I toured the southern countries, the most difficult thing was the heat. It is incredibly difficult to do missionary work in intensely hot places. During my one-week stay in Calcutta, India, the temperature rose to 41 degrees Celsius (105.8 degrees Fahrenheit). I realized that it must be very difficult to witness in such a place. Is there anyone among you who would go there? If you think about it, more Asian people live in the tropical regions than in the Far East. Even in China, half of the entire population lives in the warmer region. If you look at the ratio, more people in Asia live in the south than in the north. (018-086, 1967/05/21) 47 You must become a person who can stand in the most difficult position and take responsibility for the most difficult jobs in the Japanese Unification Church. In order to accomplish our goal, we must move forward relentlessly. If we cannot accomplish this in our generation, then we must absolutely accomplish the goal even if it is through our second- and third-generation descendants. When the worldwide storm rages, the victory of the people will be decided based on how many are ready to follow God's Will. Unification Church members are conducting an unseen global movement, but at some point this will be revealed and become a force to be reckoned with. That time will definitely come. When it does, if Japan stands at the front, she will become the center of the world. (015-085, 1965/09/29) 48 The future problem is how to move the world. To do this, we must accomplish three things: First, our ideology must be thorough. Second, we must strengthen our organization. Third, we must work together through joint activities. Therefore, we must confront communism with strong organizational power and energy. We cannot move forward without being systematic.
For us there is no day and night. We must forget even about eating. I want to raise such people. The same goes for Japan. Soon the Japanese government will have no choice but to pay attention to the Unification Church. That time will come. Japan will be saved by all of you. When that foundation is established, and when we go over that summit, then we must engage in organized activities. (015-094, 1965/09/30) |
