Another century sets in with the passage of the time since the Juche Idea was founded. But the truth of the Juche Idea has been proved more clearly with its exceptional power of attraction.
The followers who are charmed by the great idea of the era are growing much more enthusiastic across the world. And we find many moving stories which were told in the process of learning after the Juche Idea.
One year, President Kim Il Sung was presented with an old dog-eared book by the resistance fighters of Africa.
It was an immortal classic work by President Kim Il Sung which a resistance fighter had acquired during a visit to our country.
The book has never left him, and he passed it around all the members of his unit for them to study.
In his last moments, he handed the book over to his colleagues and left a will that they should only follow the road indicated by the Juche Idea and that only then can they achieve national independence and build a society for the people after independence.
He was not the only person who understood the truth of life and struggle through the study of the Juche Idea.
The Juche Idea also gave a strong will to lead a new life to an ordinary African woman who had been at a loss with no mental mainstay.
She used to blame her misfortune on her ill-fate, and prayed to God for help. But her faith in God vanished when her husband, her sole support, died.
That’s when she started to study the Juche Idea.
The truth of the great idea that man is the master of his own destiny and has the power to shape it completely changed her old and conventional religious outlook on the world.
She was absolutely charmed by the Juche Idea and made up her mind to work out her own destiny by following it and not by believing in an imaginary God, for the Juche Idea is indeed the mainstay she could put her trust in.
It is said that a great idea knows no frontiers. The followers of the Juche Idea came from different places and have led different lives, but they all felt the same way about the Juche Idea. This tells us that the Juche Idea truly is the greatest idea that should certainly be the beacon of mankind who aspire after justice and peace.
In fact, the Juche Idea is illuminating the world with enormous vitality because of its truthfulness, universality and transformable power.
President Kim Il Sung who provided the great banner of independence to mankind truly is the eternal leader of the independent cause of mankind.
