Report given by our International President Rev Hyung Jin Moon August 19, 2012 This English translation below is from a video on August 19, 2012 (Sunday), in which Rev Hyung Jin Moon gave a detailed report on True Father's Health Good morning, everyone. First, I would like to give thanks to God and True Parents. We also have to give thanks to those who have come from a long way across the seas. To the True Children I would like to give thanks because they have come such a long way. Please give a round of applause. My older sister Ye Jin Moon and her family are here. Please recognize them. And my sister In Jin Moon. My younger sisters Yeon Jin Moon and Jeung Jin Moon are here. Please applaud for my two younger sisters. And Sun Jin Moon’s family is here. And also Kwon Jin Moon’s family is here. Right now in the hospital surrounding True Mother, there is Kook Jin Moon’s couple, and the daughters-in-law are there. They are staying with True Mother during this time. I would like to give thanks to all of our brothers and sisters across the world. Many, many brothers and sisters from all countries, whether it’s Brazil or Russia or any other country, are offering jeongseong and prayers—an incredible amount of prayers for the sake of True Parents. And so today my words are not just addressed to the Cheon Bok Gung but to all members around the world. So let’s give a round of applause to all members around the world. Bodies Connected to the Providence We need to remember that Father is not just a normal person. Father’s body is not just a normal body. About 10 years ago in America, Father went through a very difficult situation with his health. I think many members already know about this, but at that time Father had to have heart surgery because water kept coming in. On the day that he went into the hospital, the Iraq war began. [Hyung Jin Moon’s emotion overcomes him.] My older brother is telling me to take deep breaths. True Parents’ minds and bodies are always connected to the providence. If we look at the world today, there are many dangerous situations. In 2005, Father predicted the pan-Pacific age, and he said that particularly the island nations are in danger. He said that Russia and China may use their overwhelming strength to take over the island countries, that this kind of a time may come. Seven years ago he predicted this. And now we are witnessing that reality. We see that Chinese citizens landed on Senkaku Island, and the Japanese police took them into custody. That is a situation where there’s a great possibility for conflict. You have seen the statistics that Kook Jin Moon gives in his lecture “Strong Korea.” Even now Korea and Japan are having conflict because of various issues, whether it’s the Dokdo [Island] issue or other issues. Actually these free countries need to unite as one to stand up against the countries of communist dictatorships: They need to defend themselves against this challenge. This is a very important period in that sense. But instead we are fighting over a small island, and that’s what the world is witnessing. The United States, economically now, is just standing by quietly. In the Divine Principle words we see in Part II the prophecy about the third world war. Depending on the human portion of responsibility that war may be an actual war, or it may be a conflict of ideologies. But the Divine Principle says that a third world war must come, one way or another. In this incredibly important time, Father, who is responsible to save the world, pushed himself way beyond his limits. He went back and forth between Korea and the United States. And as soon as he would arrive, he would have assemblies, and he would speak for three hours, four hours, and he would have Hoon Dok Hwe for 13 hours, 14 hours, 15 hours. I’ve been attending True Parents for the last year and a half, and this is how it has been continuously. It may be confusing, so I will make references according to the solar calendar. On July 16th, Father returned from Las Vegas to Korea. When he was still in the plane, he contacted Korea and told all the members to gather in the Cheongshim World Center. I’m sure you remember, and you all attended there. Then at that event he sweated as he spoke for three or four hours, giving us his words. And then the next morning he spoke again at Hoon Dok Hwe. The workshop for the Original Divine Principle was going on at that time, so he received the participants in that workshop. Lungs of a Coal Miner Then from that time his health seemed to be a little bit strange. As I was attending Father for a year and a half, when Father would catch cold, or when he would have a slight fever, or when he would be feeling bad, I would see him recover many times, dozens of times. When it was difficult, then he would take a rest; after that, the next day, he would come to Hoon Dok Hwe again and would be very active and animated. I saw that many times. But this
