My husband and I have always taught that true peace must begin with the unity of our mind and body centered on a sincere heart of filial love toward God, our Heavenly Parents. The mind, centering on the conscience, calls us to serve others, while the body seeks its own comfort. By dominating our bodies, we strengthen our conscience and learn to live for the sake of others. This is the foundation of peace.
Thirdly, he asked that the United Nations establish a day that honors our Heavenly Parents and the ideal of True Parents. I am most pleased to have been informed that in 2012, the United Nations General Assembly resolved that each year, on June 1, Global Parents Day would be celebrated. This is surely a step in the right direction.
