Title: As a Peace-Loving Global Citizen 
Author: Reverend Sun Myung Moon 
Genre: Autobiography 
Pages: 343

I think this is my third or fourth time reading this book. It is really a great book, every time I read it I am touched to tears. He is my idol, mentor and leader. This book is a worldwide best-seller in many many countries. 

Who Is Sun Myung Moon
He is Korean born in North Korea in 1920 and just passed away recently in 2012. He was a farmer, scientist, naturalist, freedom fighter, peace-maker, religious leader, philosopher, patriot, beggar, laborer, businessman, prisoner, boxer, tailor, public speaker, fisherman, engineer, teacher, martial artist, environmentalist and also a soccer player.  

He was many things, but mainly the people who knew him called him the「King of Peace」. Throughout his life, since he was young till he passed away at the age of 92, he only dreamed of one thing: how to bring about a world of peace where all races, religions and ideology can come together in freedom, peace, unity and happiness. 

From Humble Beginnings 
When he was a kid he loved the nature and people. He would run about around his hometown chasing animals and listening to nature's beautiful sound. He learned from his family tradition to give food to people, especially beggars and they receive blessings in return in the future. Later on, he had to be a beggar due to the Korean War and many people help him in return. He slept with beggars, shared meals with them, and understood their suffering. 

He was imprisoned unjustly six times and was tortured beyond human imagination. He survived the war period during Japan occupation of Korea and the Korean War. He was also persecuted and cursed more than anyone in history, because they misunderstood him and was jealous of his works. Many would have gave up if they experienced these, but he did not and continue on pursuing the dream of peace. 

Global Mission To Save The World
He established numerous organization to help to bring a world of peace, some popular ones are the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification, Universal Peace Federation and Women's Federation for World Peace and Unification. To bring about a world of peace, we must touch every part of life and bring harmony to it. Through arts, culture, ocean, sports, solution to hunger, education, environment, music, collapse of communism and many more. 

Here is a video I would like to show you about his autobiography to further explain his life:
