Rearing Monarchs
UT perspectives on grandparenting

This series of articles provides a perspective on raising up grandchildren based on the ideas in Unification Thought. Our basic premises come from 1) the Realms of True Love—in which Father and Mother Moon explain the five realms of divine love—and 2) the Three Great Kingships—which inspires the title of this series. If you take a look at those two links, you’ll understand the basic perspective of all the articles.

Though there are some examples of how the content can be applied, this series isn’t primarily at providing a detailed how to on raising up grandchildren. Rather it provides the guiding vision of what Godism aspires towards. Vision is what guides enlightened practice. As stated in NEUT What is missing is not the science of education, but the philosophy of education. - NEUT, p. 242.
