RE: Rally for the Harmony and Unity of Heaven and Earth
We sincerely pray for God and True Parent's abundant love and blessing
for all leaders and Blessed Central Families and members.
As stated in our memo of October 10th under the title of the Clouds of
Witnesses, Father has asked every individual and family to affirm the
Resolution revealed by Jesus and the Saints in the spirit world. To
accomplish this every individual and family should hold a ceremony on or
before Sunday, October 20th.
The detailed directions for the ceremony were sent out to each Regional
leader by Rev. Doo earlier this week. (They are again included with this
memo together with the registration form and detailed order of the
ceremony). Please hold the ceremony (rally) with your family. If your
spouse is overseas then hold the rally with the rest of your family
members who are together.
The Candles of the Opening of Heaven for Choen Il Guk have been
bequeathed to the Continental leaders. There will not be time for each
family to receive the candles for the ceremony. (Your family will
receive these candles through your regional director in the future. )
You should hold the ceremony using your own Holy Candles.
Use the registration form and take a picture of your family under the
banner that is prescribed. Please keep this historical document as your
family treasure.

Subject: Rally for the Harmony and Unity of Heaven and Earth
We pray for God and True Parents' abundant love and blessing for all
leaders worldwide.
At the 15th Foundation Day for the Nation of the Unified World on
October 3, True Parents directed us to hold Rally for the Harmony and
Unity of Heaven and Earth at the individual, family, tribe, people
(minjok) and nation levels. This official memorandum is to inform you of
the detailed directions concerning the rallies at the individual and
familial levels, as outlined below. We ask that all leaders guide their
members to participate in the work of liberating heaven and earth by
realizing the unity between blessed families on earth and their
ancestors in the spirit world centering on the Parents of Heaven and
Earth through their participation in these grand rallies.
1. Title: Rally for the Harmony and Unity of Heaven and Earth
2. Objectives and Purpose
All blessed families on earth and ancestors in the spirit world will
realize one heart, one body and one mindset to participate in liberating
earth and heaven in the age of the completed settlement of the realm of
life of Cheon Il Guk, centering on the Parents of Heaven and Earth.
Individuals and families will inherit heavenly fortune created by unity
between spirit world and physical world in the age of the completed
settlement of the realm of life of Cheon Il Guk.
We will qualify ourselves as the people of the age of Cheon Il Guk by
realizing one heart, one body and one mindset with God.
Individuals will achieve mind and body unity and families will achieve
unity between husband and wife and between parents and children.
Blessed families on earth and ancestors in the spirit world will settle
the realm of liberation of the physical and spirit worlds at the
familial level through the resolution ceremony centering on the Parents
of Heaven and Earth in the age of Cheon Il Guk.
3. Period 14 - 20 October 2002
4. Those Who Are to Participate
All blessed families and members
5. Conditions and Prayers before the Rally
Three-day condition for the new start (morning fast, hoondokhae,
midnight prayer, etc.)
6. Guidelines
6.1 Time: Choose the day and time that all members of the family can
participate together during the designated days (October 14-20, or if
not possible within this time frame due to exceptional circumstances, at
the earliest opportunity thereafter) and hold the rally as a family.
6.2 Place: A clean and sanctified place in each home
6.3 Officiator: Husband or representative of each family
6.4 Prayer Content:
Participants at the rally
(See attached file #1 for resolution form).
7. Things to Prepare
7.1 Cheon Il Guk Kae Cheon Cho
(Meaning: Candles of the Opening of Heaven for Cheon Il Guk):
True Parents named the candles used at the 15th Day of the Opening of
Heaven for the Nation of the Unified World as Cheon Il Guk Kae Cheon Cho
(Candles of the Opening of Heaven for Cheon Il Guk) and distributed them
to the continental directors. All national leaders must inherit the
Cheon Il Guk Kae Cheon Cho from their continental directors and in turn
bequeath them to all blessed families. (Participants who do not receive
their candles in time should still hold the rally without them.)
7.2 Certificates of Appointment: Certificates of appointment are to be
issued for Cheon Il Guk village and district leaders, hoondok leaders
and officers with public missions. (This can be done if the national
headquarters has, or can swiftly prepare such certificates for people
who are successful in the work to breakthrough on the local level, who
lead hoondokhae groups or who hold public positions in the movement.)
(In the case of Korea: Cheon Il Guk ri and tong leaders are appointed
locally based upon their residency centering upon tong ban gyeok pa
[neighborhood breakthrough], Hoondok church leaders - once appointed by
their local church leaders, they are responsible for administering and
leading the hoondokhae Officers with public missions receive their
certificates upon being appointed).
All churches are to select and list their Cheon Il Guk village and
district leaders and hoondok leaders and submit their lists to the
Church Headquarters. The Church Headquarters shall then uniformly issue
and administer the certificates of appointment.
7.3 Ancestral namelists and photographs:
These should be prepared as family members in the spirit world are
also to participate.
7.4 Rally Materials: Hoondok materials, messages from the spirit world,
resolutions etc
7.5 Banner : may be handwritten or printed (see specimen below).
7.6 Close of Ceremony

8. Resolution of Representatives of the Five Great Religions in the Spirit World
- We resolve and proclaim that God is the Parent of all humankind.
- We resolve and proclaim that Reverend Sun Myung Moon is the Savior,
Messiah, Lord of the Second Advent and True Parent of all humankind.
- We resolve and proclaim that the Unification Principle is the message
of peace for the salvation of humankind and the Gospel of the Completed
Testament Age.
- We resolve and proclaim that we will accomplish the peaceful
unification of the cosmos through ``living for others'' while
transcending religion, nationality and race, centering on true love.
- The representatives of the five great religions resolve and proclaim
that we will harmonize with one another, unite and move forward, in
order to bring about the nation of God and world peace, while attending
True Parents.
This has been resolved and proclaimed by Jesus, the leading
representative of the group of representatives of the five great
religions, Christianity, Confucianism, Buddhism, Islam and Hinduism, at
noon on 25 December 2001.
