"All roads lead to the Divine Principle."

Freedom of the press is protected in the earthly world for appearances' sake, but it is not protected a hundred percent. Right now in the heavenly world, I, Donald Woods am able to gather news on anything without anyone's control or interference. Freedom of the press is completely protected in the heavenly world. I intend to report to the earthly world exactly what I see and feel concerning the situation here. Very shocking things are happening here.

People on earth! This is the heavenly world. I have received the special grace to convey a message from the place where the souls reside, that is, the world after death, to the earthly world. What is the Divine Principle? In short, it is the doctrine of the Unification Church, revealed by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon through a revelation from God. Actually, though, it would be much better to refer to it as a truth that transcends all religions, philosophies and races. This is because religious leaders, philosophers and politicians of many dimensions have all changed to become new people after hearing the Divine Principle.

For example, the representatives of the four major religions have formed a oneness with each other centering on the Divine Principle, and are cooperating with each other on all their activities. In the earthly world, there was once a saying, "All roads lead to Rome." Here in the heavenly world, I believe a new proposition will soon appear that says, "All roads lead to the Divine Principle." I would like to find out the details of what has made it this way. In this place, I met personally with Mohammed, the Prophet of Islam. This was a totally unexpected development. What was particularly amazing was that he is now the director in charge of the Divine Principle Education Program. When did he come to be this way? That is a complete mystery. People in the world adored him, so why is he working here in this way? I am most concerned about the reaction of Muslims on earth when they learn this fact. How can the realities of the earthly world and heavenly world be so different? It is only to be expected that earthly people will not believe these things. In fact, I, too, have experienced these things directly, finding them hard to believe. I only report these facts. Mohammed is the very essence of gentleness, humility and kindness.

In this place alone, there appear to be no walls between religions, races or philosophies. In this place, all have become one. Here, one can truly experience joy, happiness, peace, freedom, equality and righteousness for the first time. There are so many interesting stories for me here that I cannot bear to leave.
