(Beginning the reading of Sun Myung Moon Seonsaengnim Malsseum Seonjip, Volume 4, of the discourse titled “To Whom Do You Belong”; …Then, where will the judgment of the heavenly realm be decided? You should not boast that you have many merits and labors for the sake of Heaven. It is not decided by that.
Only that—the heart of God and the heart of Jesus being grasped through experience (체휼) and brought to fruit in your own body, becoming a bond with God and with Jesus that cannot be severed though one tried to sever it—becomes the condition for eternal life that does not perish.)
Eternal Life That Does Not Perish
Eternal life that does not perish—a simple and truly good saying. Jesus thus knew what the content of the true nucleus is, and knew the kind of place where one ought to be living. Therefore, the place where he dwells is beyond the nation and beyond the world, at the very summit of heaven and earth; spoken horizontally, it is the very end of the world. He is a being who can be like this.
So, unless one disregards all the honor of the right of life and death, and even the traditions of all the affairs of this world, no bride can become one body with Jesus.
There is not one person on this earth who can be called a bride before that Bridegroom.
This is the nation and the world among such multitudes. Our nation and our world, too, must feel the han (한) of not standing in a position where one can break free from that world. He taught it clearly.
At that time, Father was 38, under 40. Raise your hand, those of you who have not passed 40. There is not one! So rather than thinking, “I will educate them all at once by striking them with a club,” it becomes a Heaven that must strike and do away with them to relieve its anger and offer its admonition of hope.
Only by indemnifying that anger has God become One who must, under the heading of punishment, settle accounts to the point of denying that life itself, so who is the one to become Master?
These days, why is North Korea so frantically out of its mind?
There is no one to attend as a master, a person who could become the principal of mischievous action, or a friend with whom one can engage in playful games. Even the Korean people must not live recklessly in these Last Days (끝날) before that one acting out his final deeds.
We must come to our senses. This year marks the 62nd anniversary of the founding of the nation, and the 60th year since the outbreak of the Korean War. Has it been 125 years since Christianity entered Korea?
Looking at the historical tradition of this year, is there even one person to remember it without forgetting?
The five great saints have all passed. Here, one, two, three, four have passed, and finally, Jesus, too, the one person who stood vertically, also died.
Who is the one to take the side of the vertical?
They do not know God. Religion does not know God. Confucianism, too, did not know God. Confucianism did not know the personal God.
It said, “Won·Hyeong·I·Jeong (元亨利貞) is the constancy of the Way of Heaven (天道之常)”—originally the Way that Heaven walks is unchanging; and “In·Ui·Ye·Ji (仁義禮智) is the cardinal principle of human nature (人性之綱)” speaks of the way that human beings ought to walk.
That way has the Three Bonds and the Five Relationships (samgang oryun) as its mainstream.
Then what are the Three Bonds and Five Relationships?
Father and son must be intimate (父子有親), father and son are to be intimate. Husband and wife must be distinct (夫婦有別); from age seven, men and women do not share the same seat. It says father and son are intimate even while not knowing the relationship between father and son.
What is the nucleus of being so intimate?
There must be God's blood lineage there, God's life, and God's own substance. Yet God does not wish to leave even His shadow in the human world, and the world does not know this.
The Vertical Heavenly Order Cannot Follow the Horizontal Human Order
Then, centering on the Unification Church, is the homeland centered on the God of freedom, peace, and unification present in your hearts and within our organization?
The word jayu (freedom, 自由) begins with “self“ (自); what character is the next yu? If one adds the “water (氵)” radical to “yu (由),” it becomes “oil (油).” Oil floats.
Together with a heart that floats in the world, one's own self floats in the air. The satanic world must not stain one and must be at the summit.
Is it freedom, equality, and peace, or all-under-heaven unification?
In a world of equality, there is the world of peace, not the world of unification.
Who is the center of unification? Is it me, or who?
Is it our father, our house, or the king of our nation?
There are many kings. Speaking now of nations, how many are there? The nations chosen as Abel nations are 194; those chosen as Cain nations are 193. Such is the humanity of the world; in 1958, it was 2.4 billion. It was said that we must save the 30 million and the 2.4 billion people of the world.
How many are in humanity now?
It is 6.5 billion. Ah, it has become more than two and a half times. Humanity that can become two and a half times has done so in some 50 years.
Since at that time the Kingdom of Heaven was not realized, and now it has become 6.5 billion, even over more than a hundred years and twice that, the possibility of becoming the Kingdom of Heaven becomes ever more difficult. The more humanity there is, the more difficult it becomes.
What kind of person is President Moon, seated here in the Unification Church with such a dream-like ideal?
Among Father's daughters, there is not one who followed Father from the first because she liked him. They all said, “We hate our father.”
If you rode a thread, rode a skein of thread, and fell, where would you fall?
If that skein of thread were a droplet of water, how far would it travel falling from the summit of heaven? And yet there is only one place where the droplet can fall.
When we say buja (父子), it means father and son; when we say bubu (夫婦), it means bridegroom and bride; when we say janyeo (子女), it means brothers and sisters—but how is it? The head, the tail, and the center must become one, yet they have not become one. Everyone lives without knowing this.
When you think, “What I think is this, and if it is what represents the whole, then Father must acknowledge it, and God must acknowledge it!”—do you not? But that is not the conventional decision.
When viewed centering on the heavenly order (천륜) and the human order (인륜), no matter how the human order's decisions go, the heavenly order cannot just so enter a relationship.
The heavenly order is vertical, and the human order is horizontal; how can the vertical follow the horizontal? They themselves cannot form a relationship. It is a serious matter.
If Father says, “Let those who represent the whole gather!” he means the foremost, from the beginning to the end of east and west, from the beginning to the end of south and north. Centering on such a foremost person, with the wife, when that couple becomes “our couple,” the couple on the other side does not enter in.
Because of the Fall. The word “I,” too, is endlessly ambiguous. With what is one called “I”? Is it spoken of with the eyes, with the nose, with the mouth, with the ears, with the forehead, and with the hands and feet? On what does one place the standard in calling something “I”?
The eyes, the nose, and the ears are divided. They cannot become one. The hands and feet, too, when walking, walk in an X pattern. They have not become one. The very thing that calls what has not become one “I” is itself foolish. We must analyze.
The Only Nucleus
Can God go like this, or can He go straight? Which is it?
Going like this is what is called going straight. Going like this is also going straight. The passage of going is here. Even going horizontally, one must come to this place.
The phrase “above and below” in the up-down relation speaks of a result that passes through this place, and “left and right” about husband and wife is reversed in terms of beginning, middle, and end.
Why is it that “above-below” exists, yet we do not say “right-left,” but the marital relationship is “left-right”? It cannot reach this place. The place of O (〇), the place where there is no X, is the place that should originally be passed through, but where is the empty place?
Even when one asks whether I, holding to the two of mind and body, am in the O-position, no. Body and mind fight. When asked, “Are you in the position of the chief X, or are you in the seed-position at the very heart of the unseen nucleus of O?”—how is it? Without thinking even of that, I say I am the best, and we say we are the best.
What I most dislike is saying “we of the Unification Church.” What is there? Are there women? Are there men? You do not know whether you are a woman or a man. The appearance is like a woman, yet she says she will defeat the man. People only think of crushing our husbands or our fathers, the men; not one says she will attend them and live with them forever.
So, who is there who knows and lives knowing this thunderstrike issue among the problems?
You say you came from Gangbuk of Seoul, but what is Gangbuk, and what again is Gangnam?
Are Gangnam and Gangbuk in an up-down relation, a left-right relation, or a front-back relation?
Long ago, when it was as if there were no Gangnam, Gangbuk made a fuss trying to come along as Gangbuk made its voice heard, but these days, Gangnam holds Gangbuk in laughable regard. They say it would be good if it disappeared. Are Gangnam and Gangbuk one?
Day and night are not divided, but in one day, there is day and night; if day and night become one, will it become only shadow or only sun?
If day and night become one, it will become a world of gray. As the morning sun rises—if the sun, centering on the horizon, could substitute for a whole day, what would happen?
If only half came out so that only half was, would day and night become gray, white, or yellow?
What follows next to white? Is it yellow, red, or beige? If you combine blue and white, what color does it become?
If you look at white and red, what is there?
Yellow, red, and white combine to become a comprehensive color that is neither white, nor red, nor yellow, nor black. It is a color that east, west, south, and north can all like. After white comes beige. It is like yellow, and red is also there, and blue is there, and shadow too is there.
Next to white, centering on the seven colors, what color comes? Is it red? Is it yellow?
If you combine red, yellow, and white, does it become pink, gray, or blue?
People do not even know that. In a day, the earth makes one revolution—is the direction of east, west, south, and north north-south-west-east, east-north-west-south, or east-south-west-north? Which way is the right way?
If, while saying this, one is descending, everyone must flee. If one is ascending, even in ascending, there is no path on which one can go in two rows like this. There is only one.
When speaking thus about today's position, am I standing in a vertical position or a horizontal position? Where am I standing? It is not certain. The horizontal cuts off the vertical flow entirely. Then, which comes first, the vertical or the horizontal? If the horizontal cuts off, the vertical disappears.
Even if only the horizontal exists, if it is alone, it disappears. If, through vertical absoluteness, one cannot become one with the horizontal, the vertical also disappears.
The nucleus, too, is one starting point in the east, west, south, and north; at a 360-degree focal point, all things are linked together, pressed, and descend or ascend. Only such a being can become a nucleus; what cannot ascend and cannot descend cannot become a nucleus.
Originally, that did not exist. When we draw a conclusion from such theoretical criteria, who is there to claim “I”? In that sense, one cannot claim “I.” There is no relational being that can claim “I,” but there must be the only nucleus.
That One is God. This cannot be denied. God is eternally God. Even in the eternal world, if there are ten thousand kingdoms of God, those ten thousand kingdoms also, representing the entire ten thousand, are seeking the one kingdom. They are the one, Lord. This is the Lord, even if placed at the very bottom of hell. Though there is no color on the outside, on the inside, a flaming red fire burns. Centering on heat, the very bottom is the hottest.
Where Can One Settle Down?
Why do I say such things?
Even if I know it all, since this is a world that cannot but be ignorant, I take the attitude of one who cannot but be ignorant; and that very capacity to know plants the seed in the east, west, south, north, and center of what is ignorant, and lets it grow once.
If so, it is not ignorance. I sow the seed, and in the future I can harvest in the east, west, south, and north; and since I have done so for the eastern pole, the western pole, the southern pole, the northern pole, and the center, it makes five poles.
Of the five fingers, four are laid out like this, and one is like this. When we speak these days, what is right-wing, and what is left-wing?
What is being spoken of? Is it the left leg, or is it the right leg? When we say “bad and good,” which must be placed first? Do you say “night and day” or “day and night”? “We say night and day.”
Then, where would Korea wish to be?
Speaking in terms of nations, Korea must be at the midnight of the deepest midnight.
If one dislikes midnight and needs only daytime, what happens?
If, centering on two points, night is here, day is at a place 180 degrees away. So it becomes night and day. Where would the cosmos as a 360-degree assemblage go? It would mean disappearing—and such a thing cannot be.
Centering on this, while turning 360 degrees, the nucleus moves back and forth on one, back and forth on two. Centering on 360 degrees, it goes winding, winding.
What was here goes to the right, from the right to the left, and then to the right again, winding along. Winding all the while, it is all good.
Having come over here and grown, I say I am the largest. Having come to the right, it is the largest here. Then I disappear, and, coming over to this side, I grow winding along. It is good on this side. The left is also good. To be better is good. The right is better than the left, and better, and better.
If this is done horizontally, the winding that stands vertically can stand in the position of being number one for ten thousand years. If the angle is just off, the 360 cannot hold the center and become entangled. This is theoretical.
Where are you? Are you in one place?
It seems there are nine people. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Yesterday there were eleven; today there are two fewer. The rows are six and six, making twelve rows; if nine are in twelve, how many are there? I said to fill it from 120 to 250. Here, 50 more could sit, and 100 more could sit!
Are there only 120 Koreans living in one province?
In one county, there are more than that, and in one township, there are more—what is there to worry about? Is it difficult to gather people?
Can you pull out a fistful of hair all at once, or not?
How many thousand strands are there?
If Heaven were to pull, it would pull them all out at once. The hair is unpleasant to see. It becomes a bald head. How nice that would be!
How would it be for flies and bees that fly about, or any creatures, if there were hair?
On the bald head, even the sweat is sucked up just so; even when blood comes out, it is sucked up just so. Even the moaning and dying from pain can all be decided there.
Shall I pull the hairs out one by one? “Hey, you heirs! Why have you grown long and stuck to the summit? Go and live for a while under the soles of the feet!” One can say this, and if so, how soft and cushioned my body would be! Then, when walking about, one would call it good. No animal has hair growing on the soles of its feet.
Only the human—what does one put on the soles of the feet? Why does one wear leather shoes, and why does one wear socks or beoseon? Look at a bird's feet—has there ever been a shoe on a bird's foot?
What kind of shoe does the bird put on its foot?
It walks shod with God. What kind of eye is the eye? It is the eye of God, who is the one and only.
Whose nose is the nose?
The nose is difficult to pierce. The nose that cannot be pierced is in a high place. The mouth—the mouth is what receives things in, and not knowing how to give, says it will eat anything. People know how to gulp and swallow, but everyone dislikes gulping it back out. Ah, when you look at a horse, it is composed of inside-outside, above-below, and left-right.
When we look at speaking in 90-degree directions, where can one settle down? Is it the very end of the east or the very end of the west? Where is it? East and west, with the two points gathered, say, “You are right, I am right.”
Without Root, Stem, and Bud
When the husband and wife sit, the wife says, “What is a husband? I exist to put my husband to work. Of the ten million words, if he listens well to my words, then he is my real husband.
If he listens a little less, he is a fake husband.” Do you know that the fake reaches as much as 80 percent, while the real is only 20 percent?
So, having been born a woman, if her husband treats her worse than a servant, how many days will she live?
If she lives ten years, then having lived ten years, what must disappear?
Before the woman disappears, since the root of the woman is concave, the concave must disappear first. And so, although the hair grew later, when God comes seeking, even the tip of the hair can disappear, so He said, “Do not cut a woman's hair; let it grow!” Such a saying can also be a conclusion that goes through and also a beginning.
What about the man?
What is the topknot (sangtu)? All the strands of hair want to become king. The hair here also says, “I too can become an equal king.” So what was made through fighting is not “sangtu (top-fighting)” but “sangdu (top-head).”
From God's view, rather than the fighting of the sangtu, it became “sangdu” because they were left alone. So it is called, but the strands of hair themselves are always fighting. Saying, “You are longer, I am longer.”
The strands in the opening called baekhoe (百會) are long, but how is it with these strands here?
Those below the ears keep saying they will go down, while the topknot keeps saying it will go up. Yet what good is it whether one goes up or one goes down? What kind of play is all this? Is it God's play, the wicked Satan's play, or play in a dream?
Sunlight has wonderful power. With even a little of it coming out, the surrounding midnight darkness is fundamentally dispelled. So one sees. Then what is the center? What goes above? What goes below, what goes to the right, and what goes to the left? What goes to the position of the elder brother? What goes to the position of the younger brother?
If east, west, south, north, and the nucleus at the center, the root, stem, and bud are like this, it is a three-dimensional being. Just standing as it is—how is the harmony or unification of east, west, south, and north?
Seen from the east, it is not in harmony; seen from the west, the same; so unification is forever absent. Where would unification take place?
When unification begins centering on the east, centering on the west, centering on the south, centering on the north, what is that nucleus? Without root, stem, and bud, directionality and the position of the four directions cannot be determined.
If you draw a circle representing the whole centering on the east, the west also draws a circle, the south also draws a circle, and then the north also draws a circle—who would go up first, and who would remain in the middle? If all of these combined and only the nucleus of the circle grew large, how marvelous that would be!
If You Pull Out the Root, Everything Collapses
If, going halfway, the man is good, and going another half, the woman is good, then together, centering on the center, how does it work?
If she says, “You went once, so I will go once,” they can become one.
Then, centering on three points, what is the thing that all can be equal in, the thing that can become the nucleus? There is no way, eternally, for two points to become one.
If a man and a woman say, “I am highest,” what happens? If the man says he is the highest, the woman also says, “I am the highest,” and they fight.
Body and mind are doubled; if body and mind, exchanging places, grow the center, there will be no fighting. What connects two points is called a line; no one calls the connecting of two points a nucleus.
On the first night of marriage of man and woman, will the man go on top, or will the woman go down? Will the larger go on top, or will the smaller go on top? The woman is smaller, and the smaller must follow.
The sun goes from east to west.
If the sun that rose in the morning has come out from the east, where must it go?
It should go either south or north—why must it go west? That is horizontal.
If, centering on the nucleus, you cut a sphere into the four angles of horizontal and vertical, no matter how many hundreds or thousands of times you flip the four pieces, they fit anywhere. It is all good. But if you pull out the root, everything collapses.
How many features are on a face?
Which is the center? What would happen if the eastern nation pierced the nose, the western nation pierced the nose, the southern nation pierced the nose, the northern nation pierced the nose, and they all pulled?
Which would come first?
In the East, do men live in greater number, or women? The word yeoja (woman, 女子), seen from the woman's side, is jayeo (子女). Yeoja, jayeo! What is Jayeo? It is to offer. To whom…? To me…!
Yeoja, jayeo! It is the character “remain (餘).” It has not ended. It is to offer. What does one offer? If one has offered the horizontal “I,” then one also offers the remaining vertical.
What comes next?
In the law of motion, it turns this way or that, and one must prepare for that and continue the next day, and continue not only for three days, ten days, or a year, but even for a thousand years. Such a woman is called a faithful wife (yeollyeo, 烈女).
Here is The Thousand-Character Classic! One side of The Thousand-Character Classic has sixteen characters. Four rows by four, isn't that 4×4 = 16? How many characters are on one page? Thirty-two.
The teeth, upper and lower combined, how many are there?
Also thirty-two. The lines of The Thousand-Character Classic go from the left; originally, they should go from the right. So why were they made to go from the left?
Centering on America, the Second Israel that loves the new learning, the language of English must go from left to right. “Cheon Ji Hyeon Hwang” becomes “Hwang Hyeon Ji Cheon”—it is turned upside down. “Hwang Hyeon Ji Cheon” is pitch dark even when the sun is out. This is the character “dark (玄).” A large person and a small person become one starting from here, and the right is large. Why? Because the heart is far away. If done this way, the impact on the heart is great.
There are Eastern people and Western people, and the Eastern people began using the right. Did you know that in the East, those who do not use the right hand find it difficult to marry into a family? Long ago, I memorized this and Myeongsim Bogam completely. These days, I have completely forgotten them.
Since it is the Last Days, having departed from the east and traveled all over the world, having now no place to go, one must return to the east. The Thousand-Character Classic, ending with “Eon (焉), Jae (哉), Ho (乎), Ya (也),” concludes the very last with four characters as well. Is it odd or even? Even. Not odd, but even.
The 1,000 characters are even. 250 is one-fourth. Originally, one becomes a father and mother at 25. At 24, one becomes husband and wife, and the wife begins to bear children at 25. It is divided by 100 and by 1,000 as well.
The One True Parents
In the past, Father's name was Mun Yong-myeong. What is the name these days?
When I graduated from school and was leaving the Yalu River heading toward Hailar in China, I took the name Mun Seon-myeong. In middle and high school, I had many friends. Within an 80-mile radius, there was no one who did not know the name Mun Yong-myeong. They called me Osan-jip Jjogeum-nun (Little-Eye of the Osan House), and that Jjogeum-nun was also good at ssireum.
Mun Seon-myeong. What is the character “Seon (鮮)”? It is the radical “fish (魚)” with “sheep (羊)” attached. The character “Yong (龍)” has “stand (立)” above the “moon (月),” and on the side is the character “self (己).” It is a body in which sun and moon are united; above it is placed the character “above (上),” and below are placed three brothers. That is the character “Yong (龍).”
The Japanese Kimigayo says, “Until moss grows on the rock,” and there is no saying after that of becoming a crystal or a diamond. How is Korea? “Until the waters of the East Sea and Mount Baekdu run dry and wear away”—what is it? God is the center. Haneunim boouhasa, God protects—it came to be under God's care and guidance. “Long live our nation!” Mansei—centering on the eok, which is ten thousand times ten thousand—eokmansei!
Even calling on eok ten thousand times, it does not change. Eokmansei—even calling mansei a hundred million times, or a number that is ten thousand times ten thousand, what does it mean?
Even calling eok eok eok mansei, it is the age of great peace (taepyeong seongdae). To cry out eokmansei atop the age of great peace—that is the eokmansei of the Unification Church. Mansei to God, Mansei to True Parents, eokmansei centering on us and on our nation. That is one nation.
Therefore, as the nation of God, what must one know how to attend to?
It is the people who know only one Master. Even if there are ten brother-nations, that nation is one homeland. Joguk gwangbok means the brilliant restoration shining upon the homeland. The character “bok (福, blessing)” is written with the radical “show (示),” and this speaks of something great. It is one great person, and the display of a great mouth like a central flower in all four directions is beautiful.
Not only God and His sons and daughters but also the descendants enjoy the great peace of eokmansei. It is eokmansei atop the great board. Mansei to God, Mansei to True Parents, Mansei to the cosmos! It was neither made by God nor made by the people; True Parents multiplied it all.
Since we are brothers and sisters as sons and daughters of True Parents, no matter how many hundreds of millions of brothers and sisters there are, those sons and daughters do not have two True Parents. They have the one True Parents. Even at ten thousand times that scale, what does the saying “ancestral parents” mean? In every case, as the same parents, it is the family and the household of True Parents through eokmansei.
There are eight stages of spheres—the era of the individual, era of the family, era of the tribe, era of the people, era of the nation, era of the world, era of the cosmos, and era of God; among those spheres, even if there are ten million families, He is the representative among them and the one and only Lord who can remain. When you look at a person, there is the original mind and the bodily mind. So one looks doubled when viewed from afar.
You do not know this, but when God looks from the very edge of infinity, He knows how great a given person is. If one's order among all human beings is such-and-such, when one's turn comes, there is a flash.
Centering on a telephone number, even from London, when one calls and the phone rings, one answers, “Yes,” does one not? “Yes” means “I am visible.” It is the character “ye (禮, propriety).” It is the radical “show (示)” combined with “abundant (豊).” It says, “Yes, please show it forth!”
God Is the One Lord
Like all created things, through the principle, the structural form of the four limbs and the whole body stands eternally as an object partner; and if your word and my word are eternally the same, it is okay. OK is “Open of the Kingdom.” It is opening the road on which God comes and goes. Next, what is it? It is “Open of the Kitchen.”
When Americans walking along the road become hungry, they enter someone else's house, and even when the master is there, what do they do? They go into the kitchen, drink water if they want water, open the refrigerator and drink cola, and eat whatever leftovers there are. So it is “Open of the Kingdom” and “Open of the Kitchen.”
If a Korean entered the kitchen, lightning would strike, but for Western people, even the grandfather sits there. There is a seat for the grandfather in the kitchen. He is placed in the high seat, and he says, “You are in the low place; come up and eat here!” The classes are so different.
So those who do not listen to the elder brother's word are driven out; if one does not listen to the husband's word, he is driven out; the son who does not listen to the grandfather's word is driven out; and the people who do not listen to the king's word are driven out.
For that reason, there is absolute faith, absolute hope, and absolute love. In 1 Corinthians 13, it says, “Faith, hope, and love—these three remain always, and the greatest of these is love.”
Ah, the Bible, too, is set in order, with degrees aligned. 1 Corinthians 13 is the love chapter—read it once. It is a marvelous chapter. Who wrote that? It is a letter written by the Apostle Paul.
What year is that? At 7:07:07 on July 7, 1997, we crossed over the six stages. It continues eternally. It is the Sphere of Sabbath of the Parents of Heaven and Earth and the Cosmos (천지부모천주안식권); centering on the word jeong (heart, affection), it does not connect. The “heaven and earth” of cheonji bumo, and the “parents”—what is there?
There is no love, no jeong. Jeong is the jeong of woman, the jeong of man, the jeong of God. God too has a body and mind, man too has a body and mind, and woman too has a body and mind. Centering on the body and mind of the three, the thing called true love breaks out of the position of the perfect number seven.
God is the one Lord. Centering on peace, He must, as the one God, advance with the supremacy centered on the God of all nations. The religious sphere, too, must attend to God as King of kings. T
he 193 nations must also say they will attend to the one God, that there is only one. Only when He is always at the center does the unification of all-under-heaven come about automatically.
So what is it that has come boiling out of the jar of concave and convex?
Because in the era of the individual, it carries on the royal lineage of the individual, it becomes the individual king.
Our Mother and Father became the ancestors of humanity. God is the ancestor of the heavenly kingdom, the spirit world; Mother and Father are the ancestors of the earth; and sons and daughters are the ancestors of the future.
Those three generations of ancestors become the King of Peace, the King of Lineage, and then the King of True Love, and there is eternal liberation.
God carries out the Providence (섭리) of Restoration to place the parents atop God's topknot and to travel centering not only on the sons and daughters but on the descendants down to the fifth generation.
