  • Reverend Moon: a 100-Year Legacy of Peace
    Reverend Moon: A 100-Year Legacy of Peace Sungmi Orr January 24, 2020 Family Federation for World Peace and Unification Rev. Sun Myung Moon and wife Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon share more than 50 years of public service to building world peace (Photo credit: Family Federation for World Peace and Unification) NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Members of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (colloquially known as the "Unification Church") are commemorating the 100th birthday of their late founder, the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, and his wife's, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, 77th birthday. Celebrations will be held in all 50 states of America, as well as five large regional gatherings, on January 25, as well as a week of international events and celebrations February 2-8 in Rev. Moon's native Korea. Faith leaders and former and current heads of state will be attending the Universal Peace Federation's World Summit 2020, Rev. Moon's Centenary Celebration, and a Marriage Blessing Ceremony at the Kintex International Exhibition Center in Seoul. You can find more information about the events in the U.S. at aclc,info/revmoon100. Born in what is now North Korea, and having experienced war firsthand, Reverend Moon and his wife built a legacy of peace and reconciliation centering on a family movement. They founded hundreds of organizations, institutions, and projects for world peace; more than any other notable public figure. Through the Marriage Blessing Ceremony, Rev. and Dr. Moon were the trendsetters of intercultural and international marriage, bringing couples together across national and racial borders.

  • The Unificationist Funerary Tradition
    religions Article The Unificationist Funerary Tradition Lukas Pokorny Department of Religious Studies, University of Vienna, 1010 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020; Accepted: 17 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: This paper explores the distinctive funerary tradition of the Unification Movement, a globally active South Korean new religious movement founded in 1954. Its funerary tradition centres on the so-called Seonghwa (formerly Seunghwa) Ceremony, which was introduced in January 1984. The paper traces the doctrinal context and the origin narrative before delineating the ceremony itself in its Korean expression, including its preparatory and follow-up stages, as well as its short-lived adaptation for non-members. Notably, with more and more first-generation adherents passing away—most visibly in respect to the leadership culminating in the Seonghwa Ceremony of the founder himself in 2012—the funerary tradition has become an increasingly conspicuous property of the Unificationist lifeworld. This paper adds to a largely uncharted area in the study of East Asian new religious movements, namely the examination of their distinctive deathscapes, as spelled out in theory and practice. Keywords: Unification Church; funeral; death; ritual; new religious movement; Korea; East Asia 1. Introduction “‘Death’ is a sacred word. It is not a major expression for sorrow and pain. [ ::: ] The moment one enters the spiritual world is a time that one enters a world of joy and victory with the earthly life having blossomed, the fruits borne, and the grain ladled. It is a moment we [i.e., those staying behind] should rejoice. It should be a time when we celebrate wholeheartedly.

  • The Cult Phenomenon: Fad Or Fact?
    THE CULT PHENOMENON: FAD OR FACT? MARCIA R. RUDIN* Before we can discuss the legal strategies available to counter the new religious cults, we first must discuss whether the cults should be countered, and, if so, why. We must, in short, discuss what I call the cult phenomenon. This involves consideration of several questions. What are the new religious cults? Are they really a new phenomenon, or are they similar to religious cults that have existed in the past? How many new groups have been created? How many members have they attracted? Are they a fad that will pass or a perma- nent part of the worldwide religious scene? Are they dangerous, or are they a welcome addition to religious and cultural pluralism? Sociologists define cults as deviant groups which exist in a state of ten- sion with society.' Cults do not evolve or break away from other religions, as do religious sects, but offer their members something altogether different.2 Although by definition cults conflict with "the establishment," 3 there are de- grees of conflict. The greater the commitment the cults demand from their 4 followers, the greater the hostility they meet from society. Religious cults have always existed, particularly in unstable and troubled times. The Roman Empire, for example, which allowed great religious free- dom, was deluged with apocalyptic movements that sprang from the meeting of eastern and western cultures. 5 Throughout history people, both young and old, have sought personal fulfillment, peace, mystical experience, and religious salvation through such fringe groups. Today's religious cults, however, differ from those of the past in several respects.

  • The Misdeeds of Hak Ja Han
    THE MISDEEDS OF HAK JA HAN It goes without saying that it is painful to proclaim this message. I. Hak Ja Han Did Not Achieve Individual Perfection – She Did Not Become One with True Father Did you know the following words are an accurate translation, spoken extemporaneously, from Father’s last public speech on July 16, 2012? Mother – she was raised by me. (But) there is no True Mother. The position of the wife of the Reverend Moon is vacant. She is doing as she pleases – according to her own whims! Hey! 1 2 With these videotaped words, True Father stated publicly to the world that Hak Ja Han was no longer in the position of True Mother. True Father had stated on May 11, 2007: Mother must now perfect herself by June 16, 2013.3 True Father said on October 15, 1999: Therefore, if Mother, who is present here, has [her] own thoughts and builds her own nest it will become a big problem. Rev. Moon will not be tangled up in that. But if that inevitably happens, I will jump over that. I will build [a] mountain again. Now we entered the Completion Era and if Mother does not fulfill her responsibility, there are plenty of candidates.4 1. He then said during Hoon Dok Hae on January 19, 2012: Mother is going her own way like a demon [dokkaebi]. She is not walking the same road as Father. Do not brag about Anju [Mother’s hometown] and the family name Han. If you do that you don’t become True Mother.

Its existence and popularity are a global phenomenon, interesting not only for sociologists of religion but for politicians, philosophers and people of faith. The impact of this movement and the two-way social change remain a rare subject of study and this paper aims to fill the gaps and to discuss contemporary situation in regards to its followers.

  • Unification Theological Seminary Graduation 2016: Years and Counting
    Unification Theological Seminary Graduation 2016: Years and Counting Cabot W. Peterson May 18, 2016 BARRYTOWN - On Saturday May 28, Unification Theological Seminary will host its 40th commencement ceremony at its campus in Barrytown, NY, overlooking the majestic Hudson River. Along with family, friends and graduates, the Chapel will ring with the voices of singers, guest speakers and audience participants. The property and grounds were purchased from the Christian Brothers in 1974 and the following year the first class of 56 students, chosen by the founders of UTS, the Rev. Sun Myung Moon and his wife, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, began their classwork in the fall of 1975. Two years later, in 1977, the first graduating class was honored. One of the graduates of that first class, Dr. Hugh Spurgin, is the current President of UTS. This year Dr. Spurgin will bestow degrees on students from four different areas - three Master degree programs and one Doctor of Ministry program - representing 10 different countries with Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and Shinto backgrounds. Two honorary doctorate degrees will also be awarded, the first to Rev. Michael Sykes, the Senior Pastor of the United Missionary Baptist Church in East Orange, NJ, for the past 28 years and a prominent member of the National Board of the American Clergy Leadership Conference (ACLC). The second honoree is Mr. David Eaton, musical director of the New York City Symphony since 1985. Previous to that Mr. Eaton was the associate director from 1976-84. Since his elevation to director, Mr. Eaton has literally “travelled the world,” performing with the NYCS in more than a dozen countries including Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Russia, Canada, France, Vietnam, Israel, Serbia, Bulgaria, Paraguay, the Ukraine and the United Kingdom.
