   Please take part in the Original Palace Construction Donation collection efforts through March 31, and let us offer more jeongseong [sincere devotion] so we can be able to receive True Parents at the Original Palace quickly.

"Heavenly Father, please directly help and lead us as we construct the Original Palace, which can represent the kingship that can boast the victorious leadership, connecting the foundations of heavenly fortune across the world -- from Seoul, through Pyeongyang in North Korea, Beijing, Moscow, and London, to Washington, DC, USA -- through that lookout point."
(January 19, 2002, from True Father’s benediction)

The Significance of the Original Palace Construction

The beautiful and grand Original Palace is being erected at Cheongpyeong Holy Ground, which the Parents of Heaven, Earth, and Mankind found and established – shedding blood, sweat and tears – and for which they offered jeongseong [sincere devotion] since the 1960s.

True Father said, “After having come out into the world, Rev. Moon was to unite the world and build the king of king’s original palace in Korea by the age of 40.” (Nov. 8, 1999) The Original Palace was first to be made in 1960, when True Father turned 40 years old. However, the Original Palace providence could not be fulfilled due to the opposition of the Korean government and Christianity in the 60s. Only after the coming of the Cheon Il Guk era is the Original Palace that can receive God and True Parents finally, substantially being erected on the face of Cheonseong Mountain.

In addition, Dae Mo Nim is emphasizing the following about the necessity of the Original Palace.

“True Parents came to this earth as king and queen and there has to be a place for them to live internally and externally. There needs to be an original palace to which anyone from any nation can be brought and be educated. We therefore held the dedication ceremony for the Original Palace on July 8, 2001. True Father keeps saying, ‘Build it as quickly as possible. I have an enormous amount of work to do.’” (Sept. 20, 2005)

With little time left before the construction completion date and with a heart filled with worry, Dae Mo Nim is making the following request for members to offer jeongseong together with them: “The original palace where God and True Parents can work together, the original palace that they could not erect throughout the history of humankind, is being built for the first time centering on the Messiah True Parents. We ask that all members in the world participate in this together and become members whose names can remain before history.” (Sept. 24, 2005) All members please offer your jeongseong for the completion of the Original Palace, where God and True Parents can be together.

Heung Jin Nim's Message regarding the Original Palace

"With the completion of the construction of the Original Palace, and with True Parents' entry into it in 2006, the circumstances of the spiritual and physical worlds will change completely. The heavenly fortune of God and True Parents will overflow both on earth and in the spirit world. Further, God's providence will make rapid progress, hastening the establishment of God's peace kingdom. Hence, all blessed families and members throughout the world should devote themselves to the construction of the Original Palace and fulfill their responsibility as sons and daughters." (Sept. 19, 2005, Chuseok of the Liberation of Heaven and Earth)

Dae Mo Nim’s Words on the Original Palace

“The reason the Original Palace is being built on this difficult, mountain-top site is because it forms a straight line and becomes one with the place where God and True Parents are in the spirit world.”

“The Original Palace is the original palace where God and True Parents will live eternally. Accordingly, the spirits in the spirit world and all humanity on earth have to build it for them together.”

“The Original Palace Donation is being offered so that all members, even young children, can take part in building our father’s home. I will have your names engraved so that you can be proud before all people of the future ages and for all eternity.”
