The Words of the Nishiwaki Family |
The Azerbaijan chapter of UPF held a December 28-29 Unification Thought seminar on True Parents' peace philosophy. The program took place at the Irshad Conference Center in the city of Baku.
Mr. Toru Nishiwaki, the head of UPF Azerbaijan, opened the program and gave a presentation about peace ambassadors' activities in the region. He stressed the importance that Dr. Sun Myung Moon attaches to studying Unification Thought. There were presentations on the principles of peace, followed by a discussion. Dr. Rafik Alley, the former Azerbaijani minister of religion, greeted the participants.
Ms. Mira Avsali, a family psychologist and a frequent participant at UPF seminars in Baku, said that the seminar materials are wonderful tools to support families in conflict.
Mr. Rahim Huseynov, prime minister of Azerbaijan (1992-1993) wrote in his reflection that "the two-day event reconfirmed the greatness of the ideology of UPF's founder. His unshakable faith in the possibility to establish harmonious relations between peoples on earth is based on absolute values. Dr. Moon is a true fighter for world peace and his life is the evidence of the truthfulness of his philosophy."
