Mr Moon, was the leader of the unified church in South Korea and he was said to be coming of the 2nd christ to finsh the unfinished business of Jesus Christ. His recnet passing draw a cloud of 30,000 people who mourn and cry for him. He left his religious and business interest to his sons.
He is a great leader who can control the masses and his followers runs into millions as he build his religious and business empire. But , he followed the foot steps of the Pope, Armstrong and the many great man before him.
Nobody can escape the cycle of life , not even when you are the king , Pope or Buddha hmself. So, as a great leader who have achieved enlightenment, Lord Buddha knows that he cannot escape death. When there is life , there is death. This is the natural evolution. So, he preach the philosophy of impermanence. Everything is changing all the time and the end , it ceases to exit and we return to the ashes. To relieve pain , suffering and hardship in life, he preaches the eight fold path and 4 noble truth.
Mr Moon, like the Buddha came with his own idea. The idea to unified all the churches which have gone separate ways through the years. He preaches that there is only one way and the way is to belief in Christ. Like any great leader, he is chrismatic and attractive. At one time, it was so powerful that it became a cult.
All religion have the same method , that is to teach everyone to be good. It is like the many roads that leads to the same destination. Some takes a long way, some shorter , some more winding , some more steel or hilly,etc. There are so many variations and each person have their own experience through life which is never the same.
Either you worship the Sun or the Moon or the clouds, everybody wants to reach their destination in the best and most comfortable way. Religion is a power tool and it can make you fly without wings if you believe you can do it. Only in your dreams.
Namaste.
