Mrs. Wonju McDevitt read True Father’s speech book #31 titled, “Together with Father”, given on April 19, 1970 at the Cheon Jeong Gung at Chung Pyung.
“In the world of creation, if one cannot be the subject partner, they must follow others and live for them,” said True Father. “By giving their food and aid to their subject partners, they need to protect their way to go. That is the way for them to survive. The needy existence must adjust themselves to their subject partners in order to survive and that is the way cosmos exists. Therefore, the Korean term jinhwa, or evolution, should not be represented in the Chinese character 進化, which implies “to evolve and change.” The world of creation is that of harmony and so it should be 進和, which implies “to evolve in harmony.” The word 進化 cannot continue to exist, and it should be harmonious to exist too. Regarding the Korean word moonhwa, or culture, we must change its Chinese character change from 文化, which implies “changing culture” to 文和, which implies “culture in harmony.” Each and every existence has a partner. When the right eye has a problem, the left eye works more to help. Likewise, man and woman are different but they help each other. Don’t use the Chinese character 和, or harmony, without any thought. I will challenge you when you do so.”

Mrs. McDevitt read Father's speech from his speech book #31, titled “Be United and Pray” at the Cheon Jeong Gung at Chung Pyung.
“Raise your right arm,” said Father. “For what does it exist? This is a serious issue. Raise your left arm. For what does it exist? It should exist for your family, tribe, nation and the world. The term 'indemnity' cannot take place even after millions of years pass unless one's arm exists centring on God.
“In the natural world, the weak species have lots of eggs without fail so that at least one or two of them will survive, and therefore they will not disappear. We are entering the period when humans must protect and also can raise those eggs and then we wouldn't have a food problem.”
Dr. Peter Kim said it is necessary to use the same words as does Father, who has been upgrading certain Chinese characters of words.
The following are the words aforementioned:
Before: 昇華式 (Seunghwa Shik, or Seunghwa Ceremony)
Now: 聖和禮式 (Seonghwa Ye Shik, or Seonghwa Ceremony)
Father now uses (聖和禮式), Seonghwa Ye Shik, instead of (昇華式), Seunghwa Shik, in his speech and both are Father's coined terms.
Before: 起源節 (Giweon Jeol, or Foundation Day)
Now: 基元節
Before: 進化 (Jinhwa, or evolution)
Now: 進和
Before: 文化, Moonhwa, or culture
Now: 文和
基元節,進和, and 文和 are Father's uniquely coined terms using Chinese characters. The pronunciations are the same as the previous spelling, but by changing the Chinese characters, Father redefined those terms in a more principled way. Dr. Kim said 基元節, the new Chinese characters for 'Foundation Day,' has a much deeper and authentic image than the previous one. Regarding 進和 and 文和, please read the following explanations Father gave recently.
"化 (화 / hwa: change) of 進化 (진화 / Jinhwa: evolution) should be 和 (화 / hwa: harmony). It is not 進化 but 進和! [Those who use 進化 are] Crazy people! The principle doesn't change but creates harmony, and so it should be 進和. Likewise, 文化 (문화 / moonhwa: culture) should be 文和 (문화: moonhwa).

There were 11 participants at the Hoon Dok Hae at the Ocean Cheonjeong Palace Hotel in Geomundo on 9.25. Mrs. Yang read Father's speech titled “Responsibility of the Previously Married Blessed Couples” given on June 4, 1970.
Father said in the speech, “There are lots of layers in the spirit world and so without being connected in one blood lineage through the Blessing, family members on earth cannot communicate with each other there.” Father emphasized the importance of the Tribal Messiahship, with which one must indemnify the position of Jesus.
Father also said, “When husband and wife are united with each other and pray, Heaven cannot help but give them guidance. If one misses me so much, I will give guidance in their dreams without fail, and when you see me in your dreams, you need to think about and realize the reason why I smile or seem sad in the dream. To see my sad face from the right side, from the left side, from the front, etc. in the dream all have different meanings and so you must examine each dream and learn correct messages of Heaven through dreams.
“One must find the best time for prayer and pray at that time because the time zone for the prayer is different from each other. One must pray with absolute faith, and prayer is like a root which must be planted deeply and doesn’t appear in public. If one leads a life of faith such way, one will have premonitions of what will happen that day.”
