To the chairmen of the PWPA (Professors of the World Peace Academy), December 18, 1983, noon, in the main hall of the Little Angels Arts Center It is a historic event to hold the first world conference of chairmen of the PWPA from all over the world coming to Seoul, Korea. That in such a short time you could gather from all over the world while all of the humanity and the Korean people are watching closely is an amazing event. This stands as the proof that we as a whole have become one in heart and mind and deeply long for world peace. We know that today humanity faces a great new crisis in which freedom and survival are threatened. Moreover, while Communism is revealing itself as a merciless tyrant, even in the democratic world they have failed to present some solution that can bring hope and courage to the world. We believe that Unification Thought, which is a new perspective on values and originated from Godism introduced by the Reverend Moon, is truly pointing to the bold new solution for the ideal world. This solution has already demonstrated its power to induce conscientious people of all nations throughout the whole world to offer their lives and sacrifice for the sake of the world peace, so we express deep gratitude for this. The Pledge. We, the chairmen of PWPA in different nations in the world who have participated in the first world conference, pledge as follows. We solemnly pledge that crossing over the walls of history, culture, national boundary, and race, in order to build the ideal world according to the will of God we are proud of the following that are centered on God: 1) We are proud of the one sovereignty of goodness 2) proud of the one people 3) proud of the one land 4) proud of the one language and culture 5) proud of becoming unified children centering on God 6) proud of being able to inherit the one tradition 7) and we pledge to build the one world of the heart We solemnly pledge before the whole world and humanity that we will march forward with full force toward these goals.
