Is today Parents' Day or True Parents' Day? (True Parents' Day). Father
has written a title for the message this morning; everyone can read it can't
you? Long title: Let Us Inherit the Realm of Victory of our True Parents,
Parents' Day. That is the title for this morning's message.
The present time, we have more than five billion people living on the
face of the earth. But they are totally confused from the very beginning:
they do not know how their history has been initiated, why we have been in
this chaotic situation today, and what we are heading for in the future-all
that confusion today, and five billion people are living under that confusion.
The beginning was unclear, therefore the process is also unclear, therefore,
certainly, the end is unclear. Under those unclear situations, all that has
been flourishing is confusion. If the beginning was absolutely clear, then
there could be no up or down, there could be no way to have confusion. Because
the destiny is very clear and the end goal is absolutely clear. However,
our history has not been so; history has been solid confusion and proceeding
in confusion. Therefore, many people think certain things are good, certain
things are evil; but the standard of good and evil always changes. For that
reason, there is greater confusion and
So in history there are two major parties or two elements: good
and evil. The good part and evil part are always engaged in battle and
confrontation. And at certain times, this has developed into bloodshed-up
and down, creating confusion-continuing even today. In history there have
been so many kingdoms, so many empires have come and gone. Those empires and
kingdoms do not measure their destiny when they're going up or when they are
going down; when they're going to be flourishing or when they are going to
be demolished. No one knew. The rulers of the world throughout history, they
want to stay in power, they want to stay good or continue their goodness;
however, without them knowing it, for unknown logical reasons, they have to
perish, have to be killed. They're kingdom has to be demolished. All this
has been the real picture in history.
So then centering upon men there is good and evil. Who is going to determine
the rule of good and evil? Or what is the principle that is running good and
evil cycles? If there is absolute good sovereignty for example, absolute,
eternal good power, then that power would control and diminish evil and make
good flourish, and good would continue to flourish. However, that has not been
the case throughout history. Therefore, no one could recognize an absolute
good solution, good principle or good ruler of the universe. The rulers of
different kingdoms and empires had to make up their own sets of rules, sets
of principles determining good and evil. Therefore, one set is different
from another set; and another set is different from still another set.
So everyone is operating under different criteria of good and evil.
Therefore, every country has its own set of good and evil rules, and
every country has a certain way of punishing evil. And every country has
prisons, a system of judgment, and even capital punishment. Each country,
in order to maintain sovereignty, had to enforce their own standard of good
and evil. Therefore the standard of good and evil has been fluctuating up
and down, according to the thinking and standards of each kingdom's ruler
and sovereignty. Therefore all of humanity is destined to choose one way
or the other. They desire to take a good road upon which they feel they
can flourish, but they may go another way and follow the evil road. By
following that way they will eventually perish. That has been the real
panorama of history. However, the amazing thing is this: each individual
has been endowed by our Creator, the Almighty God, with special equipment
with a special function: that is the conscience. The conscience of every
individual is telling them that even though the ruler is setting good and
evil standards, they cannot follow that standard; that is not my good and
evil standard. Your conscience won't allow that.
Furthermore, the conscience has the power of judgment; the conscience can
tell what level of evil or what level of goodness. Even looking at similar
countries, the conscience will see which country is the more evil country
and which is the relatively good country. The conscience has the power of
judgment. Then conscience, furthermore, not only evaluates and judges, but
conscience is also moving itself toward the best goodness it can find. What
about the purpose of education? Is the purpose of education to educate the
body or the conscience? What is the purpose of education in your opinion? (To
educate the conscience).
Your answer is absolutely wrong-you've been sleeping and not listening
to Father. Father just said that conscience automatically has the power
to judge between good and evil, and to follow the good. Whereas the body
is absolutely a mess, therefore what needs to be educated is the body. The
body has to be guided, educated and led into the right direction. So you can
see a good man that you contact one time, second time, third time-your mind
will know whether that person is good or evil, or how good and how bad-you
can tell. The mind and body, the conscience and body, always fight with each
other. That person has a lot of contradiction within himself or herself. But
conscientious people have much more harmony between conscience and body-there
is harmony and cooperation.
According to this principle, the spirit world has to deal with the
unchanging quality of conscience. Because the body is changing all the time,
the spirit world cannot center on the body. Therefore, the spirit world
is working with the conscience which is eternally unchanging. Because our
conscience resembles the spirit world which is unchanging; spirit world and
conscience do not change. The body can not receive spirit world; the body
cannot communicate with the spirit world. The conscience, or mind, by mind
basically Father is saying conscience is completely horizontal when spirit
world comes down vertically to meet it. Spirit world vibrates together with
the conscience, you can harmonize and receive a message from the spirit
world. The conscience is always one, with one standard, following the one
principle-unchanging. But the five human senses we have, for example the
eyes, mouth, nose, ears, etc.-obey the body; therefore, they change with
ten different kinds of variations, ten different ways they react
The unreliable five senses open up and evil has a great field day flying
in and out of that loop hole. There are a lot of loop holes which enable
evil to come inside of you. The eyes can see so many different shades, so
many different images. Even one image, by the perception of the body, can
be perceived in so many different ways. The body is following that vision
and acting upon it; that body is going down and down...taking the evil
road. The body wants to eat good things, the body wants to run, the body
wants to wear beautiful clothing, the body wants to rest. When it goes to
the banquet room and there is a special table with special cuisine, the body
always says, "That belongs to you; go there, sit down, eat." The
body orders you immediately; then the mind says, "What are you talking
about? Silence. That's for a special VIP, there's protocol; you don't belong
there." The mind is rejecting the idea. Mind is trying to find its own
place and harmonize; equally thinking where it's particu
You cannot touch, cannot see, cannot even know whether mind is dwelling
within you, but you know such a thing is there. But do you know where that
mind comes from; what is its origin or root? What about the mind as a visible
being or an invisible being? What about the root of the original mind-visible
or invisible? (Invisible.) Absolutely invisible. The root of the mind has
absolutely clear goals, clear direction, clear purpose-no problem there. So
therefore, your mind is always working toward better goodness, the better side,
the better way all the time. What do you think? Do you want to become sons
and daughters of filial piety or do you want to become loyal subjects? Or
do you want to be a rebellious son? Or a patriot? "I want to become a
patriot." Between a patriot and a saint, what is your choice? (Saint.)
You chose that because patriotism is limited to one country; on the other
hand, a saint is universal, eternal and everlasting. So there is direction and
purpose. So mind direction and purpose the mind's purpose, goal and direction
would not be changed for ten thousand, even millions of years-that is the
root of the mind. That is the root of the conscience. The man who follows the
direction of conscience, that man is known to have noble character. For that
reason, the root of that conscience must be the holiest of all characters. The
man of noble character would be respected and admired. By the same token,
the root of that noble character is the eternal center of goodness.
There is the original root of conscience and your conscience and
their purpose and direction are parallel. So you have to know one thing,
then you have to know the other. So you have to know what is the goal and
purpose very clearly, then you know absolutely everything and there is no
confusion. What do you think? That the ultimate goal is the Constitution of
the United States? (No) Civil Rights' laws? (No) The conscience's ultimate
goal and direction: is it knowledge? (No) "I'm a graduate of Harvard
and have so much knowledge in my head. Boy! This is it-I have ultimate goal
and ultimate goodness; I have everything...knowledge is my god." But
knowledge is already changeable. Even medical science today: someone says,
"Vitamin B is very good for the body," and another scientist will
come out with "Vitamin B is worst thing for the human body."
A certain person will say, "This particular treatment is best for
cancer;" the other person will say "That will kill man."
Which one is the truth? Knowledge is changeable and moving forward.
There is incredible confusion in academic society as well; there is
no absolute truth that is guiding the academic world. Not at all. What
is next? Money! You like money, don't you? Money; the word "money
or mani" in Korean means "large quantity". So "mani
money" means "lots of money". You have 1 billion dollars
in your pocket; then your pocket says, "Oh what a wonderful feeling
I have; I have a billion dollars in my pocket." But the pocket would
like to rest and go swimming. Then the pocket would say, "Oh, someone
will come and take it away; I have to watch it." What do you think? Is
the pocket going to be restless or happy and peaceful? (Restless!) Father
one time gave a check for 100 million won to one Korean minister, telling
him, "You keep it until the next time you see me in such and such a
place." So Father was told by the minister, "Father I have never
had in my hand, a 100 million won check in my life-I have never even seen
a check for that amount of money." So Father said, "Okay, I'll
show it to you." Then Father gave 100 million won check to him. He was
completely flabbergasted. Then he was even more flabbergasted when Father
told him, "You keep it for one week and then bring it back." So
that person was absolutely jubilant and took it home; then miserable."
That's money-money plays a lot of tricks.
What about political power? In order to maintain power, you cannot just
act normally or be a good man. You've got to be absolutely savvy and cruel
in order to maintain that power. Saddam Hussein is a good example. Because
when you have sovereignty position and power, there is always someone else
aiming at you, trying to topple that power. Therefore, there are gangsters and
organized crime and the coup d'etat, the military and all kinds of saboteurs,
and even other political parties, all of whom are just trying to character
assassinate you. They try to turn you into a vegetable so that they can take
power. That's the real world. Therefore, political power has nothing to do
with eternal happiness.
So there is God. Let's say that God is almighty. If almighty God is
thinking eternal lasting peace and happiness, He must have devised something
other than those items. He must be thinking much more deeply about something
that will not endanger or threaten human tranquility and life. What is
the most precious thing in human history? Conscience is the most precious,
because conscience is the origin of life. Centered upon conscience we can
talk about love; and a new element of love comes in. Throughout history,
conscience is also connected to the lineage. Conscience is such a precious
treasure for human lives. The conscience is invisible. You have life don't
you? (Yes!) Is it your life? Or whose life is it? (God's) Universal life or
your own private life, what do you think? (Universal). Your mind and body,
especially your conscience, belongs to the universe; because it is coming
from within the root in the universe-it is sharing the root. You ask your
conscience, "What kind of ancestor would you like to have? Would you like
to have your own father and grandfather, or country or nation and tribe-that
kind of ancestor would you like to have? Or would like to have a universal
ancestor?" Your conscience would respond, "Universal, absolutely.
Why don't I belong to the universe and a universal being?" When you
become famous, you want to become number one. Everyone competes with number
one. In sports for example, you compete with number one. In life, you want to
compete with number one to become number one. That is human nature. But in
your body, there are billions of cells, and every cell is number one. When
you exercise, that particular cell that is number one for exercise starts
to move and becomes number one. Every cell has certain characteristics; in
that given characteristic each cell is trying to be number one. Conscience
is most important, number one. Then what? What is number two then?
I don't know; I'm asking you. I want to hear your answer. What is number
two? Number two is love. Conscience is number one, love is number two. The
next most important element is love; but love and conscience are virtually
one, because conscience exists in love and love exists in conscience. They
are working together in one harmony, trying to be number one. Do you know how
much love you need? Can you see love? Let me see your love. No one can see
the love reality. Love action is a phenomenon. The essence of love cannot be
seen; only love can be identified through the phenomenon. It appears through
certain loving action. Through action, love can be manifested. Do you think
love is traveling on the surface, or is love traveling the deepest possible
depths? Which one? (Deepest possible depths.) Sometimes you have to have
something high, don't you? Love is like a shaft, a center or axis. When the
wheel turns, everything turns around the axis. By the same token, everything
in the universe turns around love.
Even though the human conscience is of noble character, at the same
time different men and women have different types of conscience and cannot
unite them. For that reason, the Almighty created a catalyst, to enable them
to become one-that is the element of love. Love brings them together like
glue. So therefore conscience's ultimate direction and ultimate goal has to
be love. Conscience is driving man toward love as their ultimate goal. The
love Father is speaking about is the most powerful and at the same time
the most inspiring. For that reason it can step over, create a bridge all
over the area. No gap can be created by love; love fills everything, every
hole. Therefore, by stepping on that love staircase you can go all the way
up to the highest possible realm, that is greater than any emperor or king,
greater than any power.
Love creates incredible virtues; toward the parents, love creates filial
piety. Among the brothers, love creates brotherhood. Then love also creates
patriotism; love also creates the next level, sainthood. Nothing else can
bridge all of these things into one harmonious line except love. Love is
unique and is the only thing that has the power to bridge from the level
of pious son all the way to the saint. We came to the conclusion therefore
that the root of conscience is Almighty God and that conscience's goal is
love. Love will create all kinds of harmony, all kinds of beauty, all kinds
of goodness, all kinds of happiness.
Love is so flexible that it can turn and bring the front and rear
into one, left and right into one, up and down into one, it's almost
like Disneyland. There is so much turning, riding, going in all kinds of
directions with everybody riding in and enjoying the many different kinds
of rides. Conscience and love are like that.
A roller coaster goes up to the top of the hill and then starts to go
down, with everybody screaming and screaming together. Then is there anyone
who will say, "Why do you scream? Stop! Don't yell, silence." No;
even old Grandpa and Grandma will scream also at the same time-they laugh
and smile with everyone-the feeling is one, harmonious. In that kind of
situation, old grandma hold young grandson, or even a strange young man,
or hold onto someone else's wife-they are just absolutely so flexible. On
a roller coaster everyone is united-it doesn't matter who that person is,
in that particular place you kiss and nobody will blame you. (laughter)
White one kiss black one, black one kiss white one, white one kiss yellow one,
yellow kiss red one-it doesn't make any difference-go ahead. Everything good!
In order to give the greatest gift of all, the Almighty has created
love. Love is the ultimate gift from the root of conscience. Therefore
in order to make love work, God in Heaven created men and women, plus and
minus-in order to have love blossom. Centering love, connecting as one. In
there connecting into one, unifying divisions, harmonizing everything. If
you take out love, then everything would be miserable.
So we cannot deny the greatest gift of all the Creator endowed upon human
beings is love. So does the direction and goal have to be a crooked line or
up and down or a straight line toward the goal? What do you think? (Straight
line) Is it confusion or not? (No!) Straight line and short cut way. Shortest
cut distance, something that travels shortest distance is only love; not
even electricity-shortest cut distance love travels. The fastest speed of
all is true love. The fastest of all; true love the shortest distance and
the fastest way. Love always hits you at 90 degrees: your eyes, your mouth,
because 90 degree impact is strongest-most powerful. Perfect 90 degrees match
in any direction. As you can see, in this perfect 90 degree four direction
in this kind of formation there is no loss or no waste; because it fits
perfectly everywhere-perfectly fitting, therefore no losses. So you know
that anyone who has a 75 degree nose, or anyone who has a 35 degree nose;
how about ears? Sound comes in a straight line into your ears. So when
you have even chalk between your two palms, moving in this formation, but
then all of the sudden both hands forget there is a chalk, because they see
that perfect harmony is created. So power comes this way, and stops right
here. Then here it becomes zero
With love, normally it doesn't matter what day it is; love is universal
and today is one of the universal days. So love is the ultimate gift from the
root of conscience which is the Creator. The conscience root is true and
works in that same fashion, by the same principle. So therefore, whatever
the root of conscience pursues, the goal and direction is one in the same,
not two. So therefore, in order to have love manifest more perfectly, there
shall be subject and object, there shall be plus and minus, there shall
be men and women-that's how the creation has been made. Is the Love root
subject, or is conscience root subject? Your conscience is in the object
position. Subject/object makes the circle of life. That is the ideal purpose,
isn't it? (Yes) How can you connect with it? With the love circle. The
concept we are talking about cannot be denied by anyone.
When Father hears the translation, he realizes there are so many important
parts missing, and I realize it. Father doesn't feel good. So Father prefers
more and more to speak English. Suppose American people love steak. You order
steak but someone sprinkles flour on top of it or sand on it. Can you enjoy
that steak? (No!) Today, that's exactly how Father feels. So today Father
is eating a very bad steak.
Within ten generations Father's family lineage will be connected to the
whole of humanity. Every race, country and nationality will in one way or
another become a relative to our True Parents' family. Would you like that
to happen or not? (Yes!) You applaud and you are very ecstatic about it,
but Father has a different worry. Father wants to tighten up his belt,
but Mother didn't create another hole. This is a very good sign for Mother
because it means Father is losing weight.
So the most important thing for human beings are conscience and love.
Anybody opposed? (No) Everybody agree? (Yes) The unchangeable conscience
enjoys and unites together with an unchangeable quality of love. The answer
is yes or no? (Yes) Yes? You're making your voice too loud; so all visiting
bust out-how about that? I like that; how about you? You don't like that. I
like that, but you don't like that. Cannot make it equalization-do you
like that (Yes!) No, no Father said "cannot make equalization"
and you answer that you answer "yes". Father said, "is
that a yes?" and you said, "yes". I heard clearly; I talk
clearly. That kind of word I hear; the sound is "nooooo"; (but
you said) not "no" but "yesss". Is that the correct
answer? (No) It was a bad answer. That answer was different from me.
My conscience is looking forward to being united with unchangeable love. The
originally unchangeable mind wants to take unchangeable love-that is the
formula way. How about American love? This is a serious question. How about
American love? (It's changeable) How many degrees changeable? (180 degrees) Not
180, 260 degrees. (Father laughs). 260 degrees has center, but American love
has no center-making it so that it can go around and strike every place-hit
and break down the family, nation, and society. This is the American love
system. Does every American conscience want true love? No. This is the problem.
The American love world needs reformation, revolution and action. Don't
you think so? (Yes) This is the problem. How can we import that kind of true
love? How much does that true love cost? Can 100 million dollars buy that kind
of true love? (No) Can giving all the land in America be a fair exchange for
that kind of love? (No!) This is the American people's homework. Who solved
this situation of confusion, making it righteous and correct?
So all that Father has described so far, the perverted uncentered love,
just whimsical and floating love-commonly known as the perversion of
love; that is prevailing. True conscience never wants that; the root of
conscience never wants that; true love never want that; the Creator never
wants that. Therefore, what is needed in the world today is a revolution;
revolutionize and bring it back to the original state. For that reason God
has a providential plan to bring the coming of the Messiah. By doing so,
the solution can be given to mankind. Yes or no? (Yes) You know, we are all
in double layers. One is mind, which is God's side, and the other is body,
which is Satan's side. Two layers of man.
So actually, without Satan your mind and body would be Godlike and
mind and body would become plus and minus united into one. However,
because of Satan this second part become another plus. So a double plus
has been formed. Therefore, ultimately in the end when the Messiah comes,
the seed of original plus and minus, original unity of mind and body, will be
germinated. And starting from here, growing into larger quality and larger
quantity, and eventually occupying entire territory in true vertical and
true horizontal line. That is the mission of the Messiah.
So basically the coming of the Messiah is to bring men and women into the
original state where there was no Fall of Man. That is the original state,
and to bring them back to that original state is the purpose. The worst
situation that happened was that Satan occupied the body of men and Satan
multiplied his own children and that became humanity. Mankind is stained
in their lineage. Satanic lineage has been flourishing. This has been the
problem. So there is the plus and there is a minus, plus and minus. Satan
is always in the plus position on earth, so we knock Satan's plus down
and in front of it create a major plus which is the Messiah, which is God,
the Creator. And we create ourselves as the minuses.
So in this situation, Father is trying to look for this kind of man. So
that within the one seed there is two parts, plus part and minus part,
subject part, object part in one seed. This is love cover. Man is supposed
to be love's universal representative. So love covered them up, so inside
that cover there is a plus and minus. So when the plus and minus is totally
united within the cover of love, then if another plus would try to invade
the original plus would repel it. Universal power would repel the illicit
plus. Another minus, because once this invasion becomes successful, this
order has been broken. If another minus successfully invades, this order and
system has been broken. That is the reason the cover of love is protecting
that particular seed.
The universe is our best policeman, because the universe always protects
the righteous thing. Therefore, when the plus and minus become harmonious
and united, with the universe protecting it, illicit love attempts from
another minus will be expelled.
By the same token when there is a storm, in the clash of a thunderstorm
you hear the thunder and lightning. That means multi-billion volts of plus
and minus are clashing in the sky. How can they create themselves into
such a gigantic plus and gigantic minus? As long as there is no explosion,
the pluses always unite themselves, minuses always unite themselves becoming
giant plus and giant minus until the time comes when they clash-that we call
a thunderstorm.
This is the most beautiful principle that Father has discovered: as long
as there is no object formed, the subject always increase itself-uniting plus
and plus and plus. Minus also increases itself by adding minus, minus and
minus. When you see the physics books in school, you see the statement that
plus always repels plus electricity, minus always repels minus electricity,
that is iron rule. But Father has discovered that is not always true. They do
not repel, they would rather unite, until they find each other an object
and subject, at which time they repel. But until then, they unite with each
other. So it is a universal law that when there is a plus and minus united,
nobody wants a third party to invade-not in the plant kingdom, the insect
kingdom or anywhere. No one will invite an invasion from a third party.
That's a universal rule. Is that true? (Yes)
So with a human being, before you get married or know the opposite sex,
then the boys all get together with other boys and become big bundles of boys
of joy-they will create a boy party. Girls will gather and create a girl
party. That's fine and natural. But one of the boys one day gets married. Then
one of the remaining boys said to the others, "Boys, lets play!"
But the bridegroom will say to them, "Get out of here! Get behind me
Satan!" They don't want that anymore-no invasion. So it's the same
thing with the women. A women has a very handsome husband, but some of her
friends are much prettier than herself. Then she will push them out and shut
the door. Why? Now that couple can harmonize into one, the position which
the universe can protect, because universal law comes into action. This is
the universal law of existence.
So men you have two eyes, don't you? You have two ears? But you're not
hearing two different words-they are harmonized and equalized. As long as
the two eyes, two nostrils, and two ears are harmonized, they only receive
the one image. This is harmony. Therefore in Buddhism they always bring the
two terms together; that shows the left and right are perfectly harmonized
and come under the protection of the universal law. The fate of the universe
will protect the unified weight of subject and object. There is universal
fate love. Up/down, left to right, front/rear, all those make a harmonized,
unified place forever. Nothing can be invaded there. No matter if Satan
exists someplace, and wants to infiltrate there, he cannot do that.
Another important law of the universe is that the perfect plus or perfect
subject, automatically forms the perfect minus. The perfect plus creates a
perfect minus. This is what they call "evolution theory". Father is
not talking about Darwin's evolution theory; this is the Divine Principle's
evolution theory. Plus and minus unite, then become either a greater plus
to attract a greater minus, then united together create either a greater
minus or a greater plus, then united into an even greater minus or greater
plus. This is the way progress is made.
For instance, man is plus/minus. The plus place is the mind; the minus
place is the body. United they make a complete, small entity of man. In each
man a big plus is automatically appearing. Do you understand?
This is also Father's principle for the dispensation. Father always
positions himself as the perfect plus, perfect subject. He moves forward as
a perfect subject and perfect plus and anybody who's hit become minus or
they shatter. So Father will grow in strength because this absolute plus,
absolute subject-if another plus should hit either they become shattered
into pieces, destroyed, or they become minus, united into one and become
Father's party. Then Father's party will grow.
So what happened to Father? The United States of America, the giant country
and one of the superpowers of the world, hit Reverend Moon. Reverend Moon,
as absolute subject and plus, said, " Come on, you hit me." What
happened? Even though legally what they say is something else, but universal
law says the United States was shattered. Or conscientious people rise up,
unite with Reverend Moon, and become an incredible force of the universe,
spreading all over the world.
America has persecuted Father, and what happened? The worst of all satanic
nations, the Soviet Union, welcomed Father, and the Soviet heads of state
and sovereignty welcomed him into the Kremlin and gave him the most royal
reception and red carpet treatment. When the US was hitting Father as the
big plus, the US was shattered. And the Soviet Union welcomed Father as a
big minus, and it become harmonious. Darwin's theory of evolution looks
alright on the surface; but it does not expound the very root, the very
bottom, very fundamental cause of the mistake.
So you men and women marry. Given the Blessing by True Parents, you
become husband and wife and become a heavenly plus. All kinds of outside
minor pluses are hitting you; but when you are outstanding and strong and
take the position of the absolute plus, then all these pluses will either
be shattered or join you. You become giant plus, then you can challenge
the national level and the worldwide level. That is exactly Father's way
of life. Father initiated his battle as an individual; then proceeded onto
the family level, the tribe level, clan level, national level, then worldwide
level. Father has been on the worldwide level for so long; and now Father
is fighting the universal level. The United States of America was defeated;
however, good, conscientious Americans rose up.
So even in the Persian Gulf War, Father made certain recommendations
to George Bush, and he was making the same recommendations to Gorbachev.
The recommendation was a serious one: it is a good idea, an incredibly
strategic idea, so the staff brought it up to the level of the President. He
read it and said, "Boy this is incredible; but I just got the telegram
this morning and Gorbachev told me the same thing." Little did he know,
it came from the same source. This is how Father shortened the war in the
Persian Gulf. Yesterday, Sunday, the second Sunday in the month of April,
the most incredible thing happened: George Bush declared April 5th, 6th and
7th as national days of prayer for thanksgiving for the great victory in the
Persian Gulf with the lots of sacrifices of the good men and women of not
only the United States but the allied nations. His declaration was made with
beautiful penmanship, into almost a Declaration of Independence-well-written
and quoting a tremendous amount of words from the Bible-particularly the
Psalms. Then thanking God, Heavenly Father, "God, You gave this miraculous
victory". Even the Commander-in-Chief Schwartzkoff stated that this
Desert Storm war was won miraculously. So, "I, George Bush, President of
the United States, declare to all members of this nation to celebrate this
victory by giving thanks to God, by displaying proudly the United States'
flag and each congregation meeting in their own places. Furthermore, on April
7th at 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon, all the bells of the country will ring
in thanksgiving to God." George Bush made that special proclamation. He
signed two original copies, framed beautifully; then George Bush said,
"That one original goes to the Archives, giving copies to all the press,
to the states, to all the necessary people; but another original one, he
asked his staff to send to Reverend Moon.
I would like to add that Father wrote two letters to President Bush before
the Persian Gulf War and during the war itself. In the first letter that Father
wrote he said, "George Bush, President of the United States, you cannot
win this battle without the help of God Almighty." George Bush stated
the very words that Father had written to him in his own proclamation-quoted
verbatim what Father had said in that letter. I was amazed. Father said,
"Don't promote it too much."
Human history started in tragedy, because Adam and Eve did not enter into
Heaven. Before they were ready to be blessed, when they were teenagers, they
fell. After that, the fallen generations have been flourishing, not God's
generations or lineage. That has been the tragedy; that has been the origin of
mischievousness of our world. Satan uses two tactics to prolong his reign,
Satan's kingdom. First of all, Satan destroyed all the evidence. He cut it
up so that everything appears to originate with the body. The body is Satan's
site, Satan's weapon in the cover up. And also he created the most incredible
perversion of sex-the misuse of sex. These two weapons Satan utilizes.
However, conscience is God's weapon Satan knows that so Satan is
always trying to have the power of the body obscure the power of the
conscience. That is the effort of Satan. This is why so much immorality is
flourishing in this country, because the conscience has been diminished by
Satan's tactics. Therefore, the rich people tend towards Satan's world. Satan
blesses the worst guys. Satan is trying to make people in the world make a lot
of money; Satan always trying to make it so that the body-centered people make
a lot of money. In order to make money, you have to kill your conscience. With
a good conscience, you cannot be a rich person very well. Money has become a
satanic weapon and has created an incredibly immoral culture. There are many
artificial intoxicants: tobacco is one, alcohol is another, worse is all the
different kinds of drugs. Then there is prostitution, free sex, all kinds
of homosexuality and lesbianism. These are all the satanic weapons obscuring
the work of the conscience. By doing so, Satan's rule can be prolonged.
So God is warning the world through the mouth of Father, that you must
find the way of life where your conscience is happy and satisfied. You must
live that life! That is God's warning!
Following the laws of body, you would not find any way to go to Heaven.
By way of conscience, yes! Unification Church members therefore have been
chosen as God's champions; God's air force, God's navy, God's infantry-so
that we go into all the satanic covered area-even including the houses of
prostitution and all those places. We are going to show that the conscience
must come alive.
You must become always absolute plus no matter what; and either clash
with and shatter the evil plus or convert them into minus, so that Satan
will be defeated. That is Father's strategy. God sent Father to this big
country-to show this country their wrong doings. America must change or it
will perish in the not-so-distant future. The majority of the white people
in this country do not want to be told to change and be involved in making
"heaven on earth." "We are happy already," they say and
they all take a leader's position. Great country people feel, "Hey,
what are you saying about me? My feeling is not so good; we're going to
kick you out." They create an atmosphere of persecution from all four
directions against the Unification Church. Only one Reverend Moon is standing
up; young people shoot arrows, bullets, machine guns, shooting me. But they
cannot destroy me. Why? Because I take the absolute plus position; that is
my continuous way. Minus automatically follows, becoming God! My True Parents!
You can now understand clearly Satan's aim: "How can I obtain the
mind?" With what? With the body; Satan uses the body. He tells you
to go out: "Reverend Moon is working much too hard" he will say,
"The daytime is so clear, the sky is clear, air is clear, sea is clear;
it's springtime, why do you stay in this dark place? Do you like this kind
of situation? Your position is much too difficult, how can you stand that
kind of situation? You are wrong, wrong, wrong." Your habit is your
body: "I like that; good food-I like that. Good clothes-I like that;
good place-I want to stay good bed where sleeping is good." Your habit
sounds and tastes very good. One more time you want that sweet way, sweet
feeling. With stimulating things: drugs, alcohol, beautiful woman/ handsome
guy. Do you like that? A beautiful woman or handsome guy stands there saying,
"I waited for a long time, now you appear. Thank you. Welcome."
Following that way you will fall down into hell. This ownership could be
restored.
True Parents are the true mind owner, true love owner-you have to
know that. True Parents characteristics are the concepts of true love
kingship. How can we restore this? That is True Parents' main mission. Do
you understand clearly? The world of conscience has been made victim
every time; not victor, but victim. Originally, God had never made the
word "victim," only victorious words. Because of the other side,
we lost this most precious situation. How can we solve this problem? The
main point is kingship of mind. Do you understand? Yes! And kingship of
what? True Love. Those two immediately make that different relationship 180
degrees from Satan's world. No problem! Satan's world must follow that, and we
raise the standard after that, lowering it down clearly into Hell's different
waters. They immediately turn around 180 degree, towards Heaven. True God,
True Parents, True Love, True Life, True Lineage-no matter how strong, Satan's
power cannot continue there. Those are the original heart's love purpose,
not Satan's purpose. Forever it connects with God's purpose; it's eternal
direction is God's direction. God is subject, humankind is object centering
on true love, connecting with one true love forever. With this viewpoint we
can make our conclusion. Humankind can live forever centering on true love,
the ideal of God's creation . Do you understand? This is the viewpoint
of Principle. Now will you follow me and understand everything? Yes or
no? (Yes!) So you absolutely need True Parents. By following that path all
the time you can restore absolute ownership. We have to take absolute true
love kingship. The original connecting point of divine and human love is
the sexual organs. That organ is the king's palace of love; that is the most
valuable place. Man and woman connect there, and from there connect children
and life. It is the king's life palace, isn't it? And there connect the
kingship lineage. Those three foundations connect at that one point. Of all
humankind, in all the created world, this is life's most valuable thing. This
is the most high level valuable place. Not just anyone can open that place,
only the absolute owner, the one absolute subject. From there, absolute love
appears. Through those two organs comes absolute soul-baring. It connects
automatically to the creation of the absolute ideal. This is not restoration,
not the way of salvation. But we need that messiah, we need a way of salvation.
Why? Because of the fall. Otherwise we don't need a saviour or messiah,
True Parents. Originally we had everything: God's ideal mind, God's body,
God's love. This true love and value was lost after the fall. Your original
mind understood that true love and value. So you can take back the original
human dignity of personality. Then Satan will be blocked.
For humankind what is the most deep, important point? The mind. The second
is love. Looking from that particular viewpoint, all over the world, you cannot
find anyone harmonized in mind and love. We understand that clearly. However
we can attain that purpose easily. Why? We know the truth. Until now, we
didn't know the truth clearly. Satan loved that complicated situation in
which our side was saying "good, good, good" about the exciting,
stimulating atmosphere. Satan makes that fallen surface on this earth-Satan's
armament which fell down from heaven. Look at the color of this world, this
hell of yours. God looks down on such a miserable situation, absorbing it for
a long, long time before restoring it at one time. God waited tediously for
that point in time. No one knew that until Reverend Moon came into this world
and dug up everything clearly. The satanic world was surprised, amazed. No one
had known their side's secret. God absolutely judged Satan. Satan accused:
"Why can God keep the beautiful creation foundation? I cannot permit
that kind of duality. Wipe it out! If God doesn't take the restoration way,
I'll take the creation for myself." The principled viewpoint is this:
no matter how strong is God's power, Satan cannot deny my way-I will proclaim
it, I will do it step by step, reclaiming the individual foundation, family
foundation, Father's holy blessing after that, and after that the family
pulling over the representatives of Satan's family. "You are wrong; you
have belonged to Satan's side. Make yourself independent; after that follow
me. Otherwise you will perish". I make my point clearly; but they ask,
"Well, what did you say? We are very happy. Throughout history inherited
this way of life, and in the future we will go the same way. What are you
talking about, making a more complicated situation? We don't like that!
Go behind us!"
Father didn't accept that. Father took the consequences every time centering
on God's law of conscience. I opened doors and left them open behind me. The
route you have to follow is my way-the way I took has become the universal
textbook. If you can understand the contents of this textbook, you will be
grateful forever. You cannot separate from those contents. If you take one
taste it is much too sweet, it's like honey. You cannot turn back. You want
more and more; it is that kind of situation.
So when you taste that kind of real taste, no matter how your parents, your
relatives, your country goes against you, you will never change. Kidnapped by
parents? Has that kind of activity ever been done before in history? No! Never
have parents in the past taken their children by kidnapping-the first time it
occurred was in the Unification Church. This was Satan's last weapon. Satan is
using that last weapon to destroy all unification centering on Reverend Moon.
So you need me? Yes! Why? (True Love.) Why? Reverend Moon is standing
in the True Parents' position. No matter that he is an older guy looking
bad, he has the most precious thing: touching him we connect to true love,
true life and true lineage . Otherwise, there is no way. So you have to get
those three things; you have to take back those three most valuable things
to humankind. You have to connect with Father.
You want to meet Father all the time, isn't that true? When I leave
this country, America is a vacant place. Father comes back, then America is
full. Love power is making that kind of mysterious event. So I like that,
you like it too: true love forever. In there we will take that happiness;
in there hope, in there peace, in there freedom. Lacking that love place,
how much freedom is there? No one wants to stay there at all. Centering on
love, we can have freedom. The American concept of freedom is wrong.
So today is Parents' Day, and Father wrote "The True Parents' Realm
of Victory". The realm of victory started out from the small individual
realm, to the family realm, tribe realm, national realm, and international
and worldwide realm and now Father is covering the entire universe. Virtually
Father is now working to liberate all of the communist world. That has been
started and very, very much is being accomplished. You are like a student
and you have to get a good mark. You have to receive a diploma from the True
Parents. Becoming True Children of the True Parents-that diploma far surpasses
a diploma from Harvard University which is like a peanut, like nothing.
Satan would like to bargain. Satan, knowing he is defeated by the power
of True Parents, is bargaining with God saying, "Well I'll give up
everything-all the universe, all mankind, all material wealth, including Satan
myself-I'll give up everything. God could you give me Reverend Moon?"
And God will say, "No! Get behind me Satan!"
Exactly can someone come to you and say, "I'll give you all of
New York City if you give me your son, your daughter." Can you do
it? No! Someone will say, "I'll give the entire world, the entire
wealth of the United States of America to you; can I have your wife?"
Can you do it? No! Can I have your husband? Can you do it? No!
So can you embrace with the United States: the mountains, the dirty Hudson
River and say, "This is my lover." Can you say that? No! However
when a little child comes to you, "Daddy, Mommy" particularly
when you've been away and the child comes to you to make a reunion, then
the tears are trickling down the cheek, your heart is melted, completely
melted-no prize, no money can be attached to that kind of feeling. This is
the priceless feeling of love. It is the love being, love vibration, love
light. In love the entire universe will vibrate together. The universe will
dance according to that love vibration.
This is the month of April, so when you go to Central Park or anywhere,
there are beautiful flowers in bloom, there is an incredible rainy day,
some day-the rain comes and virtually destroys the flowers. Can you go out
to Central Park and embrace the flowers and say, "Oh what can I do to
save you from the destruction of the rain? I'm so sad." You're crying
together with the flowers.
When you love God's creation, those beautiful flowers, God's heart
will be moved. God will say, "You are truly my son; you are truly my
daughter" God's Heart will be moved because you loved His creation. If
you really inspire God's Heart, what happens? God is looking down, "My
son and my daughter are so sorrowful because of this rain destroying the
flowers". All of a sudden, God will say, "Rain go away; clouds go
away. Come the rainbow." And the rainbow will appear in the sky. As
soon as the rain has ended, the flower will be smiling at you and saying,
"Thank you, God's son; thank you True Parents' children."
Father is giving this analogy because if you love nature or God's creation
that much, how much will that person love their own children, their own
spouse? The flowers are stationary. To look at the flowers, you have to go
to the park. But little children follow you; your spouse is with you; you
can go together, smile together, embrace together. This is what the family
is all about centering on true love. So how can you compare that with the
love of creation, such as the love of flowers?
So if you really want to know the world of love, you have to really
understand the world of the True Parents' love. This is where the original root
is located. So when I wear the glasses of conscience looking at the United
States of America, I absolutely have no shame. In a way America sinned me in
front of me; they abused me. They not only sinned in front of me, because of
me they are all sinners and furthermore they came to say "I'm going to
judge you. I'm going to bring the verdict upon you." That's what the
United States did to Reverend Moon. Danbury will not be erased; it's going
to remain in the United States history-to the end. This realm of victory of
True Parents, Father would like to bequeath to you, give it to you as your
inheritance. So Father's victory goes from here all the way to the world and
universe. You here, inherit the realm of victory of the True Parents. You
come to your own tribe and become a tribal messiah. That is exactly what we
are about.
As a tribal messiah, you become the ancestor of your own tribe. This is the
position. Your descendants, the future generations of your clan, will look
upon you as the Abraham of your family. So Father knows the preciousness of
messiahship; for that reason nothing stood in his way. No suffering mattered,
no torment was too great, no persecution was too much, and he came this far.
Because Father suffered so much, there's so much incredible credit that
comes to Father. So many medals all over his body. You will not see-but
there is a spiritual medal everywhere on Father's body because each victory
represents one medal. So I received all those medals; this is a pure medal
that signifies that God recognized the value. I don't want to spend it; I
don't want to do anything about it; I don't want to turn it over to you; I
don't want to turn it over to you without price. This comes to you free-this
is what Father is trying to do. You may not believe my words today; but
when you go to spiritual world, exactly what Father is saying today you will
know. But if you come to realize it only after you arrive in spirit world,
it will be too late. Then what can you do?
Can you look upon Father? You cannot squarely face Father. You are so
shameful, you have to bow your head. Since Father knows the rule of the
spirit world absolutely-for that reason, Father has been treated almost like
an outcast his entire life. But Father is enduring and persevering because
Father foresaw the end result. Does Bush know the spirit world and how to
govern the world with the principle? Does Gorbachev know about that? Not at
all; neither do. But if they listen to Reverend Moon then they will come to
know the rules of the universe. Why should they believe Reverend Moon? How can
they take Reverend Moon's word seriously? How do they know? They might think
that Reverend Moon is a swindler. How can they believe Reverend Moon? If
they look at Reverend Moon's life, then they will know. Reverend Moon is
the absolute plus walking under the most incredible adverse conditions day
after day, victoriously. He literally became a worldwide leader, changing
the shape of the world today.
From now on there's not going to be persecution. Reverend Moon survived this
far under those kind of adverse conditions; no one can torment Reverend Moon
anymore. That's what they know; that's the way Reverend Moon is true. They
will know. So all mankind will see Reverend Moon as victor as Father
said; and furthermore, there's a hope that they follow Father. Generally
speaking, Unificationists have a reputation as dedicated, sacrificial,
and conscientious. And they go after not the carnal desires of the body;
they are especially clean in morality, especially sexual morality-they are
clean people, they are pure like snow. That's Unificationists.
Most recently, Father heard that there was an oriental herb doctor-oriental
medicine, not western medicine-who has been practicing in San Francisco. He
treated lots of women; they heard there was a place like the New Yorker. There
are about 1000 men and women living in one house. Everyone, in true San
Francisco mentality, thought, "There's going to be an incredible
inferno; incredible immorality must be being conducted in that house."
So they sent secret investigators, trying to find what the New Yorker life
is all about. When they come, they saw men and women living humbly in the New
Yorker. Some are married, some unmarried, some men, some women-investigating,
they have not found even one case of sexual immorality. One thousand people
living in one house, they expected virtually an inferno every night, virtually
an incredible mad house every night. But instead there was peace; there was
a rule, there was a principle; and most important of all, there was a moral
standard in that house. So that person was not only completely flabbergasted,
but knocked out and joined the Unification Church.
It is reality. Now look at this; now there are a people who live that purely
on the face of the earth. A new breed has been created, with consciences like
angels. You know their sexual life is as white as snow. So that kind of new
breed has come upon the face of the earth. It is not just a dream; it could
be only a dream in the minds of millions of people. But for us it is a reality.
Give the thanksgiving that God has given us this life, this way of life
through our encounter with the True Parents. We have this most beautiful
way of life. This is the worst threat to Satan; but, at the same time, the
greatest joy and greatest blessing for God and His hope. You must realize you
cannot diminish this great treasure and tradition that Father has built through
you. Because two sets of parents: one is God's parents, one is True Parents.
Two sets of parents in order to build such a standard-they have been tortured,
they have shed blood, they have been persecuted and shamed. They have received
the most incredible incrimination. With that cost, this priceless treasure
has been won. This is really the secret treasure of the universe. From this we
can demolish hell-hell on earth and hell in the spirit world. Furthermore,
most important of all, we can build the kingdom of Heaven on the earth and
in Heaven. That is Hallelujah, Amen! (Applause)
I want you to understand this precious True Parents' realm of
victory. Father has won with his life of blood and sweat and finally obtained
victory. And Father and Mother want to turn it over to you without any price;
inherit it to you so that it becomes yours. So you can succeed Father's
tradition. So that you will become a tribal messiah. You may not be 100%
at first. This is the true messiah; tribal messiahs refer to the branches
of that tree. You belong to the main tree. As long as you belong to the
main tree, you are a Tree of Life and can multiply life. So you are going to
restore the elder son's position; you are going to restore the True Parents'
position; you are going to restore the kingship position.
So this main trunk is the True Parents; the flower will blossom in this
main trunk and flowers will also blossom in these branches and the two flowers
are identical. They are not two different flowers, but the same flower. Also
they bear fruit, and the seeds are identical. Another incredible vertical
element plus horizontal element is happening because of that; that is, Father
always preaches that the spirit world is coming down and assist you. That
is the reality; that is happening. But not only that, when you inherit True
Parents' realm of victory not only the Unification spirit world, but that of
all the different religions and denominations on the face of the earth. They
are affected by their own spirit world, they have to come to assist you. Old
Testament era, New Testament era, Completed Testament era-every era's different
denominations-all the spirit world is coming down. At the same time, their
correlating denominations on earth will come to the True Parents.
The Old Testament and New Testament are the main trunk, right? There are
a great number of saints there. When they are coming down to assist Father's
ministry, as well as your ministry, by the same token they are affecting their
own denomination and horizontally those people come to assist you. Therefore,
you are going to see the most incredible miracle in your lifetime within your
own village, within your own town, within your own community. Just test it out
yourself; just kick and create a problem-initiate something. Then you will see
a most strange power come to act upon you. So far we have been persecuted,
so we have been living with a mentality of a persecuted minority. So when
someone comes or when you go somewhere and start speaking to someone-your
heart starts pounding. "What can I do if something happens? What can
I do if some satanic action occurs?" On the contrary, Father said, it
will be the opposite. You are the tower of strength, the absolute plus. When
you talk to people, their heart is pounding: "What a mighty power that
woman has! What mighty words are spoken by that man!" Their heart is
going to be pounding. Because we have the most powerful weapons: Divine
Principle, True Love and True Parents! Amen! (applause).
We are celebrating the thirty-second Parents' Day today. So the thirty-third
Parents' Day will be next year, in 1992. The thirty-second anniversary means
thirty-one years; the thirty-third anniversary means thirty-two years; and
then thirty-fourth anniversary means thirty-three years. The next two years
are going to be very significant. This is the life span of Jesus. The entire
world power is up against Reverend Moon's lonely power, but that lone power
is much greater and heavier. Father is the heavyweight champion; the other
side is a white belt karate. It's so heavy, it not only tilts the balance
but turns it around. That's true. Did you ever imagine that Father would go
to the Soviet Union is his lifetime? Father knew and Father predicted it.
Do you trust and believe Father's word? (YES! )Or do you just consider
Father's words: "I will take into consideration what Father said
today." Are you going to consider or trust and believe? (Trust and
believe!) There is a honey jar; you are eating honey that is so sweet. Do
you want to just enjoy your own honey, all by yourself, or take the bottle
with you to your hometown so that everyone will share the same honey? (YES!)
So there you are. They will want to have more honey. Okay, come over,
come over. Then what would you do? Not just honey, but you would give them
eternal life. We have honey factory: the honey maker is Reverend Moon! So
amazing thing is that the universal raw material is in abundance, with no
end. Father can make jar, after jar, after jar. If you have no more supply,
just come to Father and ask for honey. (Applause)
So the conclusion is this: "Yes, that is the only truth. Father
we have no choice except to obey and follow you; we will live and die for
you." Those who do, will you raise your hands? Now shake your hands,
like an earthquake. We are uniting the entire world. (Applause).
