What is the significance of True Parents' birthday? On February 1st in the lunar calendar, I did the so-called Unification Ceremony. You or ordinary believers may not know what this ceremony is. Look. In the course of restoration, you should perfect the individual, family, tribe, and nation, and they must be connected vertically. Do you understand this? I made accomplishments on earth at the levels of individual, family, tribe, people and nation, but it was not yet connected to the spirit world. Nor was it connected to the families of the Unification Church. Although the road was paved, this road must be connected with the spirit world and then to the physical world. Only then could the Unification Ceremony start.

When could the Unification Ceremony start? Since Christianity is global, and has been developing mainly through democratic countries, unification is possible only when there is worldwide foundation; without such a foundation, the unification at one level cannot be connected to other levels. Until now, we could only aim at the global level from the national level, but we could not determine it and fix it. Do you understand what I say? But now, through the foundation I made in America, we can make the connection. Now is the time when nation and world are connected. And the global level is linked to the level of spirit world.

In the spirit world, Korean and Japanese spirits were not connected, for instance. Spirits with different nationalities were connected only to their own countries, and thus we could not mobilize the whole as a unified force. Do you understand this? Until there is resolution on earth, spirit world must be in disorder. Furthermore, in the spirit world, enemies would fight and create troubles, Koreans and Japanese, and Japanese and Chinese, for instance. So we were trying to reconcile them.

For this reason, we have done a Ceremony for Entire Liberation on March 1st, 1975, a ceremony to forgive and liberate the whole. This opens the way to forgive even Satan. Do you understand this? Through this ceremony, enemies cannot treat each other as enemies but must forgive them. For me, Satan is my enemy, and after forgiving Satan, there is no more enemy, for God does not consider him the enemy, either. Now is the time when this is unified. What will happen if physical world and spirit world became one?

What is the Fall? It is a separation between physical and spirit worlds and between God, on the one hand, and Adam and Eve, on the other. It is a breach of heart between Adam and Eve. Hence, with the spiritual and physical worlds unified, if the supranational structure of the Unification Church develops centering on family, tribe, people, nation, and world, this can form the worldwide realm of unification. Do you understand this? [Yes]

Now, it is not possible to do this in America. Korea is the central country; in Korea, through establishing foundations of individual, family, tribe, people, and nation, we advanced towards the world. This is why I came to Korea in such a hurry. So after the Unification Ceremony, I realize that my birthday this year is historic. Do you understand? [Yes] Why historic? Those spirits had never had a chance to attend the True Parents' birthday, nor did they have a qualification to celebrate it. Also, all the people on earth were without the privilege to celebrate it. It was because the spiritual and physical foundations were not joined.

Now, however, with such privilege being provided spiritually and physically, spirit world moves to restore descendants. From the Principle's standpoint, ancestors are in the archangel's position and descendants in Adam's position. As the archangel assisted in the creation of Adam, spirits are united and assist in the re-creation of Adam on earth. The time of ancestral intervention is coming. You should understand the Principle. To those who hear this for the first time, it may sound like a dream.

For this reason, this day, when the True Parents come to Korea to celebrate their birthday, is a day of opening another historic epoch. In other words, countless spirits in the other world come with the privilege to participate in the celebration. So we did the ceremony in headquarters, OK? [Yes] Through this, we move to the era in which ancestors as archangels can re-create as Adam their descendants who do not know the Unification Church yet, just as God created Adam with archangel's assistance. Thus, people all over the world can receive the privilege to celebrate the True Parents' birthday. Do you understand? [Yes]
