❇ Hoondokhae at the Cheon Jeong Gung
- 9.26 by the Heavenly Calendar (Saturday, October 22, 2011)
The hoondokhae session for the day, presided over by True Parents, was held at the Cheon Jeong
Gung, and was attended by more than 130 blessed members and ambassadors for peace from the
northern Seoul region, as well as the North Chungcheong, Busan and Ulsan regions. True Father had
woken up at 3:00 AM and began his day by offering devotions.
Members bowed to True Father, and then Father immediately began speaking. He said, “As of today,
all ceremonies held to establish the number 26 have been fulfilled. It is the day of completion and
perfection [centered on the providential numbers]. From 53 to 59… How can the number 26 be
transplanted? We experienced all kinds of difficulties in the process of doing so.” He emphasized again
that this day was an important one because it was the day on which everything [centered on the
providential numbers] was brought to a conclusion. He also told the hoondokhae readers, “Read the
speech that deals with today’s subject. You all should know what an important day today is and bear that
in mind. Listen attentively,” thus indicating that the audience should listen closely to the hoondokhae
readings.
Won Ju Jeong, True Mother’s personal assistant, began by reading the title, “Prayer and Life,” from
page 295, volume 31 of the collected volumes of True Father ’s speeches. True Father intervened at times
to address the audience. The reading was followed by Rev. Jung Soon Cho’s report on activities based in
Las Vegas and the providence centered on Happy Health [an electronic therapy equipment company].

After the hoondokhae session in Cheon Jeong Gung, True Father headed for Sun Moon University’s

event, which was hosted by the Ambassadors for Peace Council and Universal Peace Federation (UPF).
More than six hundred ambassadors for peace from regions across Korea attended the ceremony.
True Father was warmly welcomed with a big round of applause and a floral bouquet. He
approached the podium and spoke to the ambassadors for peace for four hours. What he spoke about
centered on his speech given at the Cosmic Assembly for the Settlement of the True Parents of Heaven,
Earth and Humankind and for the Proclamation of the Word by God's Substantial Self. After True Father
finished speaking, the event ended at around 4:00 PM with three cheers of Eok Mansei led by Dr. No Hee

On October 26, an open seminar about our Yeouido land development and the ongoing lawsuit
regarding it was held in the thirteenth floor hall of the Dowon Building, with twenty former church
leaders and others in attendance. The Tongil Foundation and UCI (Y22) had been invited to participate in
the seminar, which the Unification Church Former Church Leaders Council hosted, but UCI (Y22) failed to
send a notification of their participation by the deadline, October 21. In the end, only the Tongil
Foundation participated. Mr. Sung Pyo Hong, vice-chairman of the Tongil Foundation, reported on the
Yeouido World Headquarters lawsuit, and after the question and answer session that followed, the event
ended. The seminar provided an opportunity for the participants to understand the particulars of the
Yeouido lawsuit more clearly.

The International Day of Peace was first suggested by Dr. Young Shik Cho (90), the founder of
Kyung Hee University in Korea, who served as the president of the International Association of University
Presidents (IAUP). The United Nations established the International Day of Peace in 1981. This day is also
referred to as a “Gunfire-free Day.”
