Our Attitude

From these days of talks, you now know how important it is to have a transition of blood lineage. Before God sent the Messiah to earth, He had prepared for 4,000 years a nation to work with.

We know that, through his death on the Cross, Jesus paved the way to Paradise only. Heaven was left empty. (Heaven is the place where man, after having lived a life in the true love of God, can go after physical death—after having lived in a wholesome position under the number "four," under the True Parents, as children centered on God.)

Because of the human Fall, there had been no one who had really entered the Kingdom of God. Jesus desired to restore men to be entitled to that. Then, what was Jesus' mission—the most important part of his mission? It was to locate his bride.

God's purpose was to find a man, Adam, and the Messiah's purpose was to find his bride. It is according to the Principle of Creation that Eve was created out of Adam. Adam was created by God.

So, God's purpose was to locate Adam, and Adam's purpose was to locate Eve.

When you think of God, Adam and Eve—or God, Messiah, and bride—the Messiah is in the middle, the second position. In any period in the providence of God, the second one is always the most important.

Without the second one being entirely one with God, nothing can be realized. The second one cannot do anything without the third being one with him. In Adam's family, there was Abel, but without Abel's being able to become one with Cain, he could not do anything.

Our Desire
Because of the Human Fall, we have not seen God in the truest sense. We have not had the true God, in a way. And we have not been living with the true God. If we, as mankind, could have been one with God, with the true God as our

So, number "two" must restore or [re-]create number "three." By going through this formula, the Providence of Restoration is being developed. The spiritual world is in Cain's position, while the earthly world is in Abel's position.

Centered on God's Kingdom, democracy is in the position of Abel, while communism is in the position of Cain. The democratic peoples have the responsibility of recreating or restoring the Communist world, uniting it with democracy.

For that to be completed, the Messiah must come into the democratic world and work out his projects in such a way that he will have the democratic world absorb the Communist world, centered on himself. Considering this providence of God, the democratic world is not quite carrying out its mission, so you must realize that our mission is significant because we represent the democratic world.

Centered on any nation, we have the ruler. Centered on the ruler, there are two parties: the ruling party and the opposition. The ruling party is in the position of Abel, while the other is in the position of Cain.

Those two must not fight for the sake of fighting but must agree with each other, the ruling party being able to absorb the other. In that case, for the ruling party to be in Abel's position, it must be so qualified as to give good policies to the people and to do things for the sake of the people and not for the sake of its own authority. The ruling party, without being entirely sacrificial and influential toward people, cannot absorb the opposing party.

On the other hand, from the viewpoint of the opposition party, unless it finds something better and something forceful and persuasive in the ruling party's policy, it cannot agree with it. This means the ruling party must exercise a re-creative influence on the opposition party. It is true with any community or group.

In school, you have your teacher, and you respect him, depending upon how much he gives to you and how influential he is over you. In other words, whether he is respected depends upon how much he influences you toward the good. Between friends, too, the same applies.

When you respect or love your friend, that means that friend is influencing you for your own good. Then, you want to think highly of him. The one who is respected by you is in the second position, between God and yourself.

Where Are You Bound?
To this date, there have been so many people thinking about where they are destined to go. If you see men of knowledge, men of tradition, or men of wealth, you envy them. From what point did they start in the beginning? What did they want to do that they

The man in that position, though it may be vague, has something as a norm above him, either God or his ideology. Then, by being united into one with that alone, he can now give a good influence to other people and absorb other people.

Do you understand that much?

In other words, unless the norm or the law on the vertical line is set or fixed, the norm on the horizontal level cannot be decided. On the vertical line, God, man, and the whole Creation must be one with one another.

On the vertical line, by going through those three points, you have three stages set there. However lofty or high God may be, without His connecting man and the whole universe in oneness, He cannot exercise His power.

Man is different from animals, which crawl. We stand upright, with three parts to our body: head, abdomen, and legs. In your head, too, there are three sections. The important organs within our body are the lungs, heart, and stomach.

Your arm is also divided into three parts. Your hand, too, has three parts; your leg, your finger, everything. Your flesh, too—you have skin, flesh, and skeleton (bone).

Your eyeball has three sections. Your nose and two nostrils make one whole; two lips and a tongue make one. All those have something to do with the number three.

We have eyes, and since they are located above anything else, they signify God. Your nose signifies Adam and Eve, man. Your mouth signifies things of Creation.

Your nose is the most protruding. When you stand upright, it is ahead of you. So, in the created world, man is always ahead of others. When a baby is formed in the mother's womb, its eyes come first. Motion starts there with your eyeballs rolling.

You find your neck moving in many directions, but what makes that possible?

Your eyes. The action has something to do with the movement of your eyes. It means that the whole world is moving or rolling because of the command of God. All parts put together make you, but all look entirely different.

Your ears signify the four directions. The number seven is the number of completion or perfection. In your head, you find the number seven (openings or holes). Seven apertures must meet at one point.

Why We Have to Go Through Hardships
Any religion must pass through hardships to reach its ultimate goal. Why is this necessary? According to the teachings of the Principle, man fell into the non-principled realm. Man still has the form of man, but, viewed from the standard of God’s original ideal, he does not have the internal

If you do this—trying to breathe to the full—you feel your breath coming to every aperture. There is unity there. Seemingly, they have no connection with each other, but in fact, they do. That's what makes our head the most important. That's why we call man the contracted form of the universe, or microcosm.

God has the first quality in mind inherently. Man is a plus being and a minus being. Creations other than man are also plus beings and minus beings. I said your eyes symbolize God, your nose symbolizes man, and your mouth symbolizes all things. Those two, God and man, join here and come down here, but your mouth is a straight, horizontal line.

That means it is the basic, fundamental thing. Centering on the man, the vertical line comes onto the horizontal line. When your mouth is tightly shut, it makes a horizontal line; if you draw a vertical line downward, it makes a cross. When you speak, your words come through your mouth; it means that anything significant or anything that makes sense must go through the cross.

You have two eyes, signifying the two essentialities of God; two nostrils, signifying the opposite sexes of man; and two lips to your mouth, signifying plus and minus on the horizontal line. You have three stages, but centering on God, if you divide these two (plus and minus, male and female), they will form a foundation of four positions. This is square, but if put sideways, it will combine to stand on the horizontal line.

If you pull up and down, narrowing this part, it will draw a vertical line. All will come either on a vertical line or a horizontal line, depending on what you do. This signifies that pulling power and pushing power are controlling the world.

If that's constantly done at full speed, it will circle, revolve around, and cause harmony in the world. Between male and female is the action of give and take, and if that is done harmoniously, there is no "you" and "I," but the whole thing will come about in beautiful harmony.

Everything taking place in the whole universe acts like that or revolves in such a form that there will be beautiful harmony. It is from the give-and-take being done in a wholesome way. So, we can reach the conclusion that nothing can exist without going through that stage, going through the action of give and take. Isn't that true?

The whole universe is the place where that kind of action takes place everywhere, and those small units of things will do the same among each other. There is motion everywhere. You want to hold your hands still and extended like this, but after a while, you will find they are shivering like this. All living things have motion. Motion is always circular, in a circular form.

Unification
Ten days before yesterday was one year since I visited you last. You have been working on the mobile team buses for about nine months now. I sincerely appreciate what you have done so far as mobile team members working for your nation and for the whole world, while in

When the wind blows, you will find it does not do so in a straight line but with a waving motion. Science says that if there is high atmospheric pressure and low pressure, it will dash to this place, not in a straight line but in a wavy line.

Then, why does it do that if it makes the distance longer?

The wind is sometimes strong and does not come in this way, straight, but there is a rhythm too. When you run, too, you want to run straight forward, but there is some circular action there. You bound forward and create circular movement.

We have the foundation of four positions, but it doesn't remain square. When they have give-and-take between each other, there always comes a circular motion between every element. As I have said before, there is God above us, man in between, and things below us. So, man, being in the second position is the most important. Man puts both in action.

On our head, we find the nose protruding as a point. And by seeing the nose, you can see whether a man is handsome or not. The nose is the first thing to define your beauty. When you look at the landscape, beauty is decided by its mountains, which draw curving lines. The whole world is a mystery, indeed.

If you closely examine it, you will find many such interesting things. In the Divine Principle, the source of science, too. What must be the force that can pull it sideways so that God can come down to this point?

What must be the power of horizontal give-and-take?

What causes horizontal give-and-take? If you pull on the vertical lever, everything goes to the vertical line.

What force causes that? Love as a magnet. Love is something that, even though you may pull it on and on, it will not be cut or severed. Say there are two lovers. One is in the extreme east and one in the far west. But is the bond of love cut with distance in between? No. When true lovers embrace each other, would they want to be pushed by forces to come closer and closer into one?

Would they want to have that done?

Love is pleased either when they are pulled apart or when they are pushed closer. Love is the subjective power—power in the plus—the most important power, the strongest power. In Christianity, we advocate God's love in human society.

Suppose there is a spinning top in the form of a foundation of four positions.

The force comes to the center, but how does it look?

Does it look narrower or wider? It spins very rapidly. Some say it is narrow this way and some that way. Which is right? So, the more rapidly it spins, the higher it becomes. When it slows down, it becomes like this.

The more rapidly it spins, does it stand upright or tend to fall?

It goes straight up and higher and higher. When it slows down, it becomes wide sideways and vacillates and wavers and is about to collapse. God created the theory. Would God have wanted man to spin as fast as possible, centered on love or not?

What is the power causing them to spin around so rapidly?

What is the force there?

Love. Nothing but love can make that. If you love another person, would you like to hold him like this or to spin around? If those two are put together, they want to spin very rapidly; they must stick to each other as closely as possible.

Unless you do that, neither of you can be set in motion very rapidly. In love, the action of love, the revolving action of love, will grow taller and higher to reach God. Everything we do in actuality has some symbolism.

The Point of Rise or Fall
Loving spouses are the same, too. Love, changing love is not a love; unchanging love is love. The most valuable love for humans is also unchanging love. Have you ever read in a novel or in a poem, oh, love, ever vacillating? When you compose a poem in praise of

When the two revolve around unwillingly, the motion will come into a disharmonious form and is apt to collapse, but when they are really in love with each other and hold each other tightly and revolve around, then no force can make them collapse.

In everything, in doing anything in your work, too, would you have it done quickly or slowly?

If you do it rapidly, trying to reach the goal, it is something to grow fast and reach the goal. That principle applies to everything. With the object and the cause, every pair of things forms four positions, too: the object of your sight, the two eyes, and the nerve controlling the eyes in back—God.

With your object there and the cause in the back, every part of you, every member, forms four positions. When you want to hold a thing, do you find it stronger if you hold it with two hands or with one hand? When you walk, too, four elements are in motion. So, love is something that causes that motion and has the four positions spinning around so fast that they reach God.

Would you like to have love among you? Would you like to love each other, or not?

If you love each other, you will grow taller, higher, to reach God sooner; and if you are near God, the blessing from Him is apt to be there. Without love among you, you will be scattered with distance and gaps between you. The motion will slow down, and you are apt to collapse. Are you ready to love each other? 

If you love each other, both will prosper, but if you hate each other, you will not only be separated, but you will be ruined and collapse. With a line omitted here, can it be a sound, solid form of four positions? It would collapse—not like a line. The essential thing we need to form the foundation of four positions is God, father, mother, and children.

As I said before, there is a plus element and a minus element in God. With children, here too, you have male and female children. Parents—one is male, while the other is female. From the fact that children have plus and minus elements in themselves, we have male and female children, and parents are male and female.

From this togetherness and from God being the cause, then there must be plus and minus elements in Him. To draw a square, there must be three stages.

When you put it this way on the vertical line 1, 2, or 3, or when you put it this way 1, 2, 3. With all those put together on the axis, you will find the nuclear point. When this one is placed here and this one there, power comes to the central point on the axis, both in circular motion and spherical motion; power comes to the nuclear point.

Three points, either the number three or the number four, when they spin around, form either a circular or a spherical form. When they count every element, there is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Including the central point, the number seven will make everything perfect—in perfect motion. So, the number seven is the number of perfection. There are three stages: the world of children, the world of parents, and the world of God.

How Will The Unified World Be Established On Earth?
(Reconstructed from notes and partial transcriptions.) Was the world created according to a unified motive? This is a great problem. If the cause is not derived from a unified source, then the earth would not be unified. If this world were created from a unified source, then all individuals, families,

The first one is the generation [formation], the second one the growth, and the third one the stage of perfection. In between, we find three stages, but the levels, when you count, come to four, and altogether seven. Those four divided into three (subdivided into three) will make 12.

Every number appearing in the Bible comes from that foundation of four positions—three stages. This being the basic thing of the whole universe, you must remember that the foundation of the four positions is most important.

Suppose there is a very loving couple, and one partner dies. Why is the other so sad? Because he or she lost the object of love. In other words, since the perfection of creation is the perfection of the foundation of four positions ... in that case, she has lost the foundation of four positions by losing one element.

With one of those four omitted, can the rest of the three form the four positions?

Suppose there is a couple and they don't have children; why are they sad?

Since they love each other, why are they sad? They are sad because without having their children, they cannot form the foundation of four positions. When you are married to one another, would you want to have boys or girls in your family? Which?

If a couple has boys alone and another couple has girls alone, then the boys and girls can marry each other. What makes you sad? Would you still want to have both boys and girls in your home? Why? It is to perfect your foundation of four positions.

Every element of the fall must have a plus and a minus quality in itself. Without your boy here at least, the line there will be missing. It will collapse. Without one of the lines of the square, it will be incomplete.

If the man here is still single, he can still play around because he has hope of having a wife and children in the future. In that case, he has hope, but once he is married and loses his wife, then he is sad. There had been the foundation of four positions formed, and they collapsed due to a loss.

At the Crossroads of Good and Evil
The church to which you belong is the Chong-ro Church. When you say Chong-ro, what does it bring to mind? It is the street (in Korean, ro) where there is a bell (in Korean, chong). There is a big bell in front of Hwa Shin Department Store. It is not

God is always alone, so when you are alone and single and have hope at the start, you want to become one with God. Because when you are single, you want to have someone to give back and forth to. So, God is alone.

If you form the foundation of four positions, you are stable and you are sound, so the whole universe protects you. You feel pain in your heart when you lose your spouse. Because when you have a foundation of four positions formed, all the surrounding universe comes into cooperation with you to protect you, but if you lose one element out of those four, you are being dispersed or severed, so all the surrounding power will join to pull you apart. You will not pass the law of four positions.

You are expelled and dispersed in that case. You must always be thinking of how to form the four positions. When you sleep, you close your eyes, but you open your mouth—you are more inclined to open your mouth.

If you open your mouth, that resembles the form of four positions. When you are in a deep, sound sleep, your mouth is open. In deep sleep, you want to be protected by God, and God is always there protecting you. You must be thinking of how to form the foundation of four positions, day and night. If you form four positions with anything, that is good.

Not only in the family, but there is a foundation of four positions everywhere. If you are married and, as a couple, center on your work, you have a foothold in the world by making your career a success. If that is God-centered, another foundation of four positions is made. A single man, when he works with co-workers, also forms a foundation of four positions.

When you have your family and children, then you want to raise them on the foundation of four positions by making your worldly career a success. Your first desire, therefore, is, concretely speaking, centered upon yourself. What is your first desire? It is to marry. Second? To have children. Then, with God above you on the vertical line, you have three points already.

God’s Strategy for Victory
I founded this newspaper only because I understood that this enterprise was the Will and sacred plan of God, who loves America and its Judeo-Christian heritage.

On the horizontal line, centered on yourself or your marriage, you want to broaden your horizontal base by making your career a success by winning many people to cooperate with you or be under you. So, with you always in the center, you want to make many kinds of foundations of four positions. When husband and wife are entirely one, you have a vertical line, but still, the couple would want to have a broader base in their careers.

Before that, they would want to have the restoration of relatives and tribe, which comes on the horizontal line. In this way, you want to have your whole nation, your government, and your people. Centered on you, or you as a couple, you want to multiply your children to make the foundation of four positions on the family level. But if you broaden your family on the horizontal level, you then want to make restoration of clan and relatives on the vertical line.

All the people of the world—people of governments and heads of nations- will bring the restoration of the nation. So, centered on you, you want to restore yourself, your family, your clan, or your tribal level, and in this way, in the rear and front, you will have your people and your government—you must have all those things in mind.

To enumerate those things from the broader scale and narrow it down, in terms of the restoration, you think of the whole nation, and in it are included your clan, your family, your spouse, and yourself. God is there, you and I, and children; and when it broadens, there is your clan on the horizontal level and your nation in another direction.

So, that is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, with your family at the core. It will consist of eight points. So, number eight will be the restarting point after you have broadened the scope of having gone beyond the level of family and having made your career.

The formation is something like this (drawing on the board). Then, what should be our attitude? Our attitude, in a word, should be to make the ideal of creation a reality. In doing that, we must start from the point of laying the foundation of the four positions.

And the core of that is man. Man, in making the foundation, must act as give and take between mates, and then multiplication comes about; and all those things must be centered on God. When we put all those elements on the vertical line, here are myself, my family, my clan, and my nation—three stages or number lines. So, your attitude and your concept must always be that you have not only yourself in the core, but you, your family, your clan, and your nation. You must be able to set up at least that much of a foundation for yourself.

Then, what must have been Jesus' attitude? He wanted to form the foundation of four positions on every level. Centered on the individual to God above, mind and body, and what you are going to do (your purpose), you will form four positions, and so you want to form your family, clan, and nation.

Conversely, when God had prepared the nation of the Israelites for Himself and it collapsed, He had to prepare other people of Judaism, loving them and His nation together; and after that, He had to form His clan stronger and tighter to Himself, and then with His family as the core and He, Himself, as the axis, could He have set all those things in motion centered on Himself?

Vertically, on the historical level, Jacob was a victor on the individual level and then, later, formed his family and his tribe under him. Going down to Abraham, God wanted Moses to lay the foundation on the national level. Then, going down, at the time of John the Baptist, He would have had Moses' foundation on the national level. But John had to lay the national-level foundation himself.

If Jesus had started his mission with those bases made, he would have been welcomed by his family, his tribe, and his nation, and he could have succeeded in carrying out his mission.

The Complete Restoration
Everybody knows that we are living in an evil world. No matter how good a life a person may say he lived on earth, at the end of his life, he looks back and realizes that his life was not so good after all. Everyone wants to have a balance

Up to the present moment, every nation of the world has wanted to make itself the leading nation of the world. One of the nations at least had to do that in such a way that it put God above, people in the rear, and the government on the horizontal level; and it must have the purpose of working for the salvation of the whole world.

That would form the big foundation of four positions centered on God. But if it does not have God in the center, God above, it will have to face destruction and ruin.

Then, what must be our attitude again?

On the individual level, we must always try to have God above us and have our mind and body united, and our acts will proceed from our mind and body. That is the person of perfected individuality. Then, that perfected individual must have his or her spouse. Then, the couple, put together in harmonious oneness, must have God above it. What men and women must do is to grow in scope and make their family and tribe a harmonious one. They shouldn't want to influence them that much.

Then, centered on themselves, they have their children, and more than that, their clans and their neighbors' clans and nation around them. The purpose of an individual is to form a family where there is the foundation of four positions. Then, the subjective male person and the objective female and their children form number three, and with God added, the number four—the foundation of four positions.

The purpose of any individual is to increase by having a spouse and children to form the foundation of four positions.

The Value and Significance of the Family Pledge
It came from Heaven as a gift to all humanity on May 1, 1994, the day when the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU) was inaugurated.

Then, what is the purpose of the family of people?

They must want to have their relatives multiply under the same ideology. And broadening the scope, they must want to influence and restore their whole nation with God above.

Like multiplication—that's the purpose of any family. What is the purpose of the tribe or clan? Its purpose is to restore the nation and then to restore the whole world. Do you understand? What is the purpose of the nation, then? The purpose of the restored nation is to restore the whole world and the spirit world, too, to return them to God.

You always want to connect the three levels of things. The purpose of any individual is to perfect himself and perfect his mind and body together, perfect himself, and have his family. The purpose of the family is to restore the nation and the world. We want to connect three levels of things.

The purpose of the individual is to restore himself and to restore his spouse, with his spouse as the object, and to restore the family. The family's purpose is to have its clan restored, and with the clan as the object, to restore the nation.

The purpose of the nation is to win or restore the world and the whole universe, including the spirit world. The purpose of the individual is to make his mind and body into one, with his body in the objective position. Then the purpose is fulfilled if that forms a square; then they have formed the four positions. That's the perfection of the individual, family, the nation, and the world.

The perfection of the family comes in this way: the purpose of the individual is to restore the male and female. The purpose of the family is to have the husband and wife become one with each other and, with the multiplication of children, form the foundation of four positions at the family level. The purpose of the nation is to have the family and clan in the objective position, put together to restore the nation.

The purpose of the world is to have the restored nation and the world become one together, with the world in the objective position, to restore the whole universe. Is that clear?

The foundation of the four positions comes from all the above. In other words, the purpose of the individual is to form the family, the purpose of the family is to form the nation, the purpose of the nation is to restore the world, and the purpose of the world is to restore the whole universe. This way, we have a vertical relationship.

You must know clearly that on every level, the foundation of the four positions is so important.

You must have such an attitude as to try to form the foundation of four positions on every level. If you have formed that, the whole world, including God, will come to protect you.

On the individual level, when your mind and body are not in oneness with each other, the disharmony causes you pain. This way, your flesh causes you pain.

Where there is no harmony between the subject and object on any level, that means that there is disunity there, and that causes pain. If you cannot become one with your spouse, there is pain or agony on the family level.

If you are not in perfect love with each other, the children cannot be perfect, and then the foundation of our positions is not stable. Then you grieve. Family ethics start right from here. A world of harmony starts from a harmonious family. Even though you may have a harmonious family, if it is not in good harmony with relatives, there is another level of pain on a wider level. If your clan does not agree with your nation, you are in agony on a wider level.

If your nation does not agree with other nations, your agony is greater. Well, only after having won all levels of things will you be protected on all levels, and you will have real peace and real happiness within you. There are seven or eight stages on which you must have perfection: individual, family, clan, tribe, national, world, cosmic, and then God.

The Mission of the Clan Messiah in the Revolutionary Era After the Coming of Heaven
This declaration instilled a promise of new hope for a new future in the hearts of the 6.5 billion people of the world.

As in Korea and other divided nations, the nation is divided into two tribes. By the two powers—one in Eve's position and the other in Cain's position—put together, then we can reach the next level, the tribal level.

So, without your being able to go through all those stages, making every level a success for perfection, you cannot safely say that you have God. But because of the disharmony of our ancestors in Jesus' day, because of the Fall of the first human ancestors, all those things were nullified.

Our mission is to restore those things by going through the reverse way. Do you know what I mean? Since it took even God 6,000 years to do this, and He has not quite done that much, then how can you dream of carrying out that mission in your lifetime? You cannot start it all over again. God, by using all spiritual leaders and saints, has achieved a level of success.

And we are now at the stage of the worldwide level with the Master here. And what the successors were doing was to inherit what was laid by the predecessors and, in that way, come to the Master. You are going to inherit what the Master has already accomplished. First, you must become one with the central figure who has inherited all those things and accomplished his portion.

By becoming one with him and with his family, with the hope of having him and his family do the work ahead of them, and by putting yourself into one with them, you are in the same position. You will inherit what they are doing, and it will be your plus, too. It's something like this: if an insect gets hold of a fast-moving train, it will reach the goal at the same speed.

In that case, the insect would want to cling to the train, and in that case, he is in the position of the perfect object to the train. In that case, if both become one, the one in the objective position can acquire what the one in the subjective position has.

If you, in your position, cling to Master and his family, accomplish it. You will never accomplish it by yourself, but he will do it. On Master's part, he will cling to God and become one with Him and do everything in the way that God would want him to do, so in that way, he will establish his family.

So, if you cling to him and his family, you are doing the same thing as his family, forming the foundation of four positions on the individual level. But in doing that, you must become one with the person who has accomplished that much, who has a perfected individuality.

You want to become the perfect object to him; by becoming one with him, you will have perfected your individuality. By having your family become one with his family, your family will have been perfected, and you must want to do the same on broader levels. In Jesus' time, he wanted to do things on that level, but he could only carry that much out on the spiritual level.

So, we are going to do what was left unaccomplished by Jesus. Suppose Master will command you to do certain things. You must receive his command as if you are not only receiving just a command from him, but from his family, his clan, his tribe, and his restored nation—you must take it as the command from his nation and the whole world and from God to you. You must have the attitude of putting that much value on what you are doing.

You will possess the whole universe. When I order you to do a certain thing, I'm not doing that from the individual level or for my sake as a man, but I am doing this for the sake of the clan, tribe, nation, and world and in place of God. So, when you don't obey me, you will not have obeyed God or obeyed the demand of the world, the demand of the nation, or the demand of the tribe, clan, or family.

Heaven is the place where you go after having accomplished many levels of things. So, even though you are at the threshold of Heaven, if you have not accomplished the foundation of the four positions at those levels, you are not qualified for Heaven. The master has laid the foundation of four positions.

When you try to resemble him or try to do what he has done, you will have to lay the foundation of four positions on the family level, tribal level, national level, and cosmic level, and then you can reach God.

If you do that on the horizontal level, the straight line will come, connecting all those things to reach the goal. Is everything clear to you?

If you join Master on this level and devote yourself entirely to him, you will have accomplished as much as he has done, and if you are here, then you are covering this (looking at the board).

Now that you have the clear picture of what he has done and what he is going to do, you can even go ahead of him and go into the Communist world and restore it and wait for him there. You will, in that case, excel those persons who have fought on other levels.

The Family is Rooted in Absolute Sexual Ethics, Which is the Model for God’s Absoluteness, Peace, and Ideal, and the Global Kingdom
Ladies and gentlemen, throughout history, people have worked continuously for peace, based upon human effort alone.

What makes the missionaries great?

If a missionary is responsible for the restoration of a nation, he is in the subjective position to the whole population of the country; and then, by his being the perfectly accomplished successful object, with Master as the subject, you will have everything.

On the spiritual level and in the future on the physical level, too, those who could restore the nation will be more than the king to the nation, but only after having restored the whole nation. At some point in the future, when he has restored the whole nation, he will be something like a king there, both on the spiritual and physical levels.

Our attitude in thinking, in saying things, and in acting out things must be that we must try at all costs to lay the foundation of four positions on each of those levels.

If you make any of those a failure when you have learned and clearly understood that that is your mission, then you will not be forgiven. That is because the law of the foundation of the four positions is something like the law of the constitution. If you cannot carry out your mission, then you have violated the law. You have no standard of law.

You must, by heart, understand and remember that the perfection of the foundation of the four positions is our goal on every level. That is the perfection of the ideal of creation. Up to the present, you have only a vague idea of the foundation of the four positions. You must know clearly that without love, no laying of the foundation of the four positions is possible.

Then what is the means of realizing or laying the foundation of the four positions?

It is love. You must know that. What we must have is the God of love. If we think of those as two, God is the subject, and love is the object.

God is the cause, and love is the result. Do you understand?

With Godly love as the core, when you form the foundation of four positions, even though you look at the four directions, everywhere there will be love. In every day's direction, you will find love and harmony and beauty and everything virtuous and good. My conclusion is that you must be thinking of how to lay the foundation of four positions. The foundation of four positions with godly love in the core—this is what you must remember.

Even when you eat, you must be thinking of how to form the foundation of the four positions. I need my object in the love of God to perfect love. When you find the object of your desire and become one with that person, you can form the four positions.

If I lay the foundation of four positions, I am qualified for Godly love from all directions. You will either have to have yourself as the subject or yourself as the object.

So, when you are single, you look at Master as the subject, and with you as the object, there will be a foundation of four positions laid.

In any formation of oneness between subject and object, if you want to revolve around at full speed, the higher and taller you grow, the sooner you can reach God.

When you reach God, that means that you are in God and God is in you. God wants to come down to you.

Love is the only way that will enable you to do this; at the core of the foundation of the four positions, that must be our attitude. You are entitled to the Heavenly Kingdom. Then, there will be nothing for you to fear or nothing for you to be ashamed of! You will be proud, people!

Let Us Bring Out the Value of Restoration
The purpose of God wanting to save humankind is, as you all know very well, that He is trying to restore them to the original state.
