“These are textbooks you will have to read and study even after you go to the spirit world. They are not just teachings that come from human intellect. Instead, they are textbooks and teaching materials that God has granted to His suffering children that teach the heavenly way for their salvation.”

—Pyeong Hwa Gyeong, p. 971

 
 
 
 
 

ABOUT the textbooks

The Eight Great Textbooks are the most extensive collection of True Parents’ teachings, ranging from a “textbook” as large as the entire corpus of True Father’s recorded sermons to the concise statements of the Cheon Il Guk Family Pledge, eight vows which outline the identity and responsibilities of a family blessed in marriage by True Parents. It is worth noting that World Scripture, one of the eight textbooks, features insights not only from True Parents but also from key religious and philosophical thinkers from around the world, various traditions, and across time.
