November 21-24,1974
The purpose of the International
Conference on the Unity of the Sciences
is to bring together the world's most
eminent scholars to discuss the rela
tionship between fact and value. The
ICUS is sponsored by the International
Cultural Foundation, a non-profit, edu
cational and charitable organization in
corporated in the state of New York and
founded by Sun Myung Moon. To ensure
the highest possible scholarly and scien
Science has developed with the ideal of
increasing human happiness and in
deed, has contributed much to human
tific standards, some of the most emi
nent thinkers in the world today advise
and chair these meetings. Papers are
submitted from individuals selected by
the Chairmen's Board. While the ICUS is
independent of any particular ideologi
cal viewpoint, the event has been made
possible due to contributions by the Uni
fication Church. Dr. Moon himself has
chosen the major theme for the confer
ences and has delivered an address at
each one. The proceedings of the con

Pyungan Buk-Do, Korea, he felt the call
to work for the ideal of world peace and
unification at an early age. After much
meditation, and the study of electrical
engineering at Waseda University in Ja
pan, he began to teach the Unification
Principle at the conclusion of WW II. As
was the case with many visionaries, his
ideas and projects were disregarded at
first. He emerged victorious from much
criticism, and since then has launched
many different types of organizations for
the unification of man.

but which is the right way
together into eternal
unity?
Real
happiness comes about only when we have our mind and body
eternally in oneness, harmony. In the position where we have our
mind and body in utter oneness, then we cannot be dominated by
powers other than the final or absolute power. We come close to the
absolute Being and we ourselves resemble Him. Unless there is the
possibility of our resembling the absolute Being there is no such
thing
as
happiness.

in diesen Konferenzen eine Atmosphare der

Erwartungen und ich danke den Teilnehmern fur
