An independent archive of the words of the True Parents
True Parents Legacy was created out of a simple desire: to preserve, organize, and make more accessible the words and legacy of Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon for anyone who sincerely wishes to study them.
Many people encounter these teachings only in fragments: through quotations, isolated passages, or scattered references. This project grew from the feeling that such a legacy deserves something more careful: a place where readers can explore the words in context, move across related themes, and return to them over time with greater clarity and understanding.
Who we are
Work on this project began in 2024, and it has continued to grow through ongoing reading, collecting, organizing, editing, and reviewing. What may have started as a practical effort to make important texts easier to find gradually became something larger: a structured archive built for study, reflection, and long-term preservation.
The site is maintained by an independent volunteer team of followers, readers, and supporters of the True Parents tradition. Its experience is practical rather than institutional: years of reading core Unification texts, comparing editions and translations, working with archival materials, and returning to Korean materials when clarification is needed. It is not presented as a final authority, but as a careful and sincere study resource. Meet the team →
What the site contains
Books, speeches, sermons, prayers and searchable passages, organized by author, topic and source, so readers can move from broad exploration to focused study.
The goal is not simply to republish texts, but to make the collection itself understandable: where a passage comes from, how it relates to other materials, and what kind of source stands behind it. Organization, context and source awareness are part of the work of preservation.
Methodology and verification
Materials are selected from publicly available sources, official publications, historical archives and community-shared resources, with priority for widely recognized core texts and major speech collections. Doctrinal meaning is not rewritten; minor typographical, formatting or readability corrections may be made for clarity.

- CompareWhere several English versions exist, they are compared.
- Consult KoreanKorean originals clarify meaning and confirm wording.
The process is not always perfect, but it reflects the spirit of the project: to handle the material with care, humility, and honesty about its limits. Editorial methodology →
Translations and source transparency
Many source texts are Korean. They are presented in English, often in translations prepared by disciples, followers, members or other volunteers, and checked against the Korean whenever possible to improve precision and consistency.
Translation is not treated as a hidden or finished process, but as an ongoing editorial responsibility. Readers who notice errors, unclear wording, omissions or inconsistencies are warmly encouraged to get in touch.
Advisors, consultants and partners
The project is supported by independent volunteer work: source identification, translation review, editorial consistency and historical context. There are no formal consultants or partners at present; the work is informed by editorial review, reader feedback and community knowledge.
For broader historical, theological or academic context, these outside references are good starting points. They do not replace primary texts.
Why this project exists
Preservation matters, but preservation with clarity matters even more.
Teachings endure more fruitfully when they are not only stored, but also organized, explained, and made responsibly available to others. This site was created in that spirit: not simply to collect texts, but to help readers approach them with greater understanding, reverence, and care.
