REVEREND SUN MYUNG MOON
SPEAKS ON
TRUE DAY OF ALL THINGS
AND THE
INITIATOR OF HARMONY
Belvedere International Training Center
June 5, 1997
Translator: Mr. Peter Kim
Is there any non-Korean volunteer to read the title of
Father's message this morning? How about Japanese members? Can you read
it? Then everyone repeat after me. Man Mul Ui Nal [Man Mul Ui Nal]
This means the Day of All Things. And Hwa Dong Ui Dui [Hwa Dong
Ui Dui]. Okay, one more time, Man Mul Ui Nal Kwa [Man Mul Ui Nal
Kwa] Hwa Dong Ui Dui [Hwa Dong Ui Dui]. Okay, now you know the meaning
of Man Mul Ui Nal. Kwa means And. What do you think Hwa
Dong means? [Harmony] Harmony, that’s right. Ui means Of.
Dui means what? You heard this word from Father a thousand times.
Of course harmony, but it has some action in it, to make harmony. Dui means
owner, literally owner. So what do you think it means? It means the initiator
or starter of harmony. But the meaning is owner. True Day of All Things
and the Initiator of Harmony. Do you understand the meaning? (Yes)
Those who want to have a rich and happy life show your
hands to Father. (Laughter) Another try. If you are half-hearted in your
response to happiness, then happiness will look at you and turn away. Suppose
your loving spouse were to call you after a long separation, would you
respond half-heartedly? (Laughter) No. You would instantly jump up and
run to her. The qualification of leading a happy life is to always be smiling.
What is the next stage of excitement from smiling? Singing, dancing, jumping
and flying. Whatever causes excitement. Father asks you again, when you
meet your loving spouse are you going to jump and run to your spouse or
just sit still and say hello? (Laughter) You naturally want to give your
spouse the strongest hug possible in greeting. Singing and dancing together
in excitement. [Laughter]
Everyone wants happiness, but in order to have a happy
life your eyes should smile. There are some who always have smiling eyes.
What about your nose. Is your nose smiling sometimes? (Laughter) Father
has just witnessed that when this handsome gentleman sitting here was laughing,
his nose was smiling also. (Laughter) Your eyes follow your mood. When
you smile and laugh your eyes also smile. There are variations to each
individual's smile. Do your body and hands remain still when you are excited
and happy? Do your hands tend to go up or down when you are happy? (Up)
The reason why we tend to raise our hands is because we want to bring our
ancestors and even God to our level and enjoy ourselves together.
When you desperately call your lover do you put your head
up or down? (Up) All the way up so that your forehead becomes flat and
God can come down and sit on it. Whilst you have God sitting on your forehead
you will be able to dance with Him. It always requires balance. Imagine
that God is now standing on your forehead and dancing with you. When you
lift your left leg God has to balance His body which is now connected to
your body. Therefore He has to lift His right leg. [Father demonstrates]
(Laughter. Applause) If God were to stand still and demonstrate His dignity
then there is no fun.
Do you think God has had a happy day? In the process of
creation, God created all things first. Upon that foundation, God created
our original ancestors, Adam and Eve. But because of their Fall, God lost
everything. He lost His children and all things. Even though God has five
senses, He has had no one to talk with, see with, smell with, hear with.
God has been lonely all the time. Therefore, has God been happy or unhappy?
(Unhappy) Those who believe in an unhappy God, are you unhappy people?
That is why the religious believers have been walking the path of tears
and suffering. Some people claim that the teaching of Divine Principle
is excellent, but once they step inside they have to go through suffering.
From God's point of view, is this the correct course or the incorrect course
for us to go the path of suffering and indemnity. (The correct course)
Does that mean Reverend Moon is good or bad? (A good man)
Father has a tight schedule today and still he hasn't
really begun his message to you. Father feels sorry that he was thirty
minutes late this morning. The reason for this was Father ate breakfast
and took a nap. (Laughter) You are laughing so this means in reality you
know what happened. So your laughter is telling Father that you understand
and he need not be sorry. If some feel that Father is a bad time keeper
they don't understand what was going on. Father already called in that
he would be a little bit late. (YES) [One member of the audience shouts]
Only you heard, no one else? (Laughter)
The differences between men and women
Sitting as you are now, observe your body and look around.
What do you see? (Brothers and sisters) The man looks at woman and the
woman looks at man. Brothers see sisters wearing beautiful butterfly-like
clothing. (Laughter) The sisters see the brothers wearing dark suits and
looking handsome. The dark suits look like crows. Who is happier, man or
woman? If we were to take brothers and sisters gathered here out to the
slave markets, whom do you think would be chosen first? (Women) That means
sisters may be sold but brothers will remain unsold. Then who is happier?
Sisters may be prettier than the brothers, but on the other hand you get
sold. The brothers may be uglier than the sisters, but they are lucky just
the same. That is why throughout the world, regardless of east or west,
women get sold to men, even through marriage.
Who is in the position of subject, husband or wife? (Husband)
Especially you American women, answer which one is subject. You know clearly.
(Men) Women. (Men) The meaning of 'woman' is warning to men. (Laughter)
[Father writes on the board] This 'm' represents man and 'w' represents
woman. When they are placed together they are inseparable. Together they
create a whole human being. But on this diagram which one is up? (Man)
How about here? Which side is plus, up or down? (Up) Even within the English
alphabet the 'm' is on the top and 'w' on the bottom. But some American
women claim that women should be subject.
The concept and reality should become one. There should
be no separation between them. Which is more precious, the visible or invisible
world? (Invisible world) Based upon pragmatism there is no value in the
unseen. In general America is enjoying material wealth. But because of
this America is losing the concept of God. Therefore man is in the position
of subject. If this is the formula, should the husband follow the wife
or the wife follow the husband? (Woman should follow man) Who is in the
position of subject? (Man) Is it easier to buy a woman or a man? (Woman)
Father is showing you how women's eyes move following the diamond necklace,
ring and earrings. But men don't care.
Some American women might believe that Reverend Moon always
puts women down. They might come and sit here and listen to Father's explanation
and eventually change their attitude. They will come to realize that Father
is not a woman basher, but rather he truly promotes women's values. Don't
you think that will happen? (Yes) If there is fair competition in the Olympic
Games, could a woman beat a man? (No) No matter how many competitions might
exist within the Olympic Games, woman cannot win over man. Do you feel
badly? (No) Even if you feel badly, there is no other choice. Because this
is the truth. Even if we have an eating competition still women cannot
eat more than men. Women usually eat one-third of what men eat. Usually
is the husband taller than the wife? (Yes) If the wife is much taller than
the husband that isn't good. If she is too tall maybe crows and pigeons
will come and nest in her hair. She will look like a telephone pole.
American women have guts and are brave
Before coming to America, Father heard that American women
have guts and are brave. Therefore Father imagined that they must be taller
than men. But when Father saw them he realized that they are smaller than
men. Also in walking, a woman would have to take several steps to cover
the distance a man does in one stride. If you have to cover several kilometers,
man would probably have to take one hundred steps. Whereas a woman would
have to take seven hundred steps. Who tires more easily? (Woman) Therefore
who is pulling whom? (Wife is pulling on husband) You western women have
guts. (Laughter) You answered clearly to Father which is very courageous.
(Laughter)
Those of you who are gathered here in front of Father
today, show your hands who believe that women are in the position of subject.
Especially you American women. Someone may twist reality and claim that
Reverend Moon is brainwashing all the women in order to sell them. For
the last forty years people have been criticizing and labeling Father in
such a bad way. But after forty years their accusations and criticism has
just disappeared. Because they have become tired of it. After forty years
of attacking the Unification Church and Reverend Moon they thought surely
the Unification Church will have disappeared by now. Instead Father has
established the Kingdom of God and is dancing there already. (Laughter)
(Applause) All the accusers will realize that Father is on the top and
dancing in the kingdom. How wonderful it is.
We are indebted to the natural world
Do you feel great? (Yes) If you don't feel great Father
will stop right here. (NO) No. KNOW. (Laughter) When we look around at
the color of the carpet, your clothing, the ceiling and everything, where
does it all come from? (God) [Father is writing on the board] All things.
Today is the Day of All Things, God's creation. What about your
body, especially woman's body that can even bear a child? Where does it
come from? All things. What about your beautiful house, where does it come
from? You are so proud of your machinery and equipment but where do they
originate from? All things. What about your precious car? Everything originates
from all things. Do we have anything to be really proud of? We are all
indebted to all things. If we truly want to be proud of ourselves we need
to pay our debts first. Even when we have breakfast, if we truly understand
the reality, can we easily pick up our utensils and eat the food? Where
does that food originate? What about all the meals you eat three times
in a day. Do you think they are happy to be absorbed by you or are they
crying? Therefore if we truly don't understand the meaning of all things,
we are like thieves and robbers.
What is the definition of a thief? Taking someone's property
and keeping it as your own. In other words whatever we consume comes from
all things. But we fail to remember that fact and regard everything as
our own. Therefore we may be regarded as thieves. Your eyes, nose, and
mouth all originate from all things. Today is the thirty fifth Day of All
Things. When we celebrate the thirty sixth Day of All Things we will have
gone over the hill. Because the number thirty six is the multiplication
of three times twelve. Thirty six and twelve can be divided by three. If
you add three and six it makes nine. Actually nine is a satanic number.
Because if you write the number nine quickly it looks like a snake or Satan.
If you write nine with the mouth part open it means you are ready to take
everything for free, like Satan takes everything. Therefore nine is Satan's
number. However, number ten represents one and zero which means God says
okay vertically.
Originally Father didn't intend to talk about these things.
Do we have anything that truly belongs to us? (No) When a new baby is born
it originated from the mother's egg and the father's sperm. The baby doesn't
have anything of its own. But love connects into one and conception occurs.
We ourselves do not exist. I am nothing but the extension of my father
and mother. My father who gave sperm and life and my mother who gave her
egg in order to create me. I don't have anything of my own. I can only
be proud of my father and mother's love and the sperm and egg I received
from them. That is the origin of my life. That is why we cannot deny our
father or mother. Neither can we deny our existence. Unless we become children
of filial piety we cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven. All things have
come through that stage. Therefore we should be able to love all things
just as God does.
What do you have to be proud of?
In the animal world does extreme individualism exist?
(No) Yes. (No) Yes. (NO) You know better than I do. Thank you. Do you understand
Father? (Yes) Therefore, America has nothing to be proud of. Does this
beautiful land, trees and grass belong to America or to God? (God) GOD.
What is there for America to be proud of? If anyone thinks this wealth
belongs to them, this creation belongs to them, they are thieves. Which
means that they are doomed to lose. Now we understand the true meaning
of the Day of All Things. When you look at Reverend Moon walking here,
this is not really Reverend Moon. But rather it is a mass of all kinds
of all things. It is like a tree stump and rock walking. Is that true?
(Yes) I ask is that true? (YES) In Korean, yes means Jesus Christ. Because
in Korean we say Yesu.
Is there anything we can truly be proud of? (No) Those
of you with pretty faces may think you can be proud of that face and sell
it? Such a sister is a thief not a true owner. If you want to say 'beautiful
woman' that doesn't only refer to the face. But that woman should have
everything in balance, pretty face, pretty feet and pretty well balanced
hands. Also her hips and chest should be properly developed. If you truly
want to label someone as a beautiful woman then you have to draw her as
a naked model and conclude whether or not she is beautifully proportioned.
When you try to select a well ripened watermelon at the
market, you cannot determine whether it is ripe, delicious and sweet or
not simply by looking at the skin alone. Even when the shape is a little
odd, if it is ripe inside then that is the water melon you want. Is this
not true? (Yes) Usually when a woman has a pretty face she has defects
some other place. Either her hips are too small or her feet or hands are
too big. (Laughter) Something is not balanced. Therefore don't marry any
woman judging by her face alone. (Laughter) (Applause) Even if your wife
is not so pretty, her heart might be well balanced. Therefore her entire
appearance is well balanced. Then you can guarantee to have beautiful children.
(Applause) That is true. In the morning when the wives apply their make-up,
do they concentrate on their faces or go down to their feet? (Face) Suppose
a woman applies make-up to her entire body every day. Then she will become
a museum item. Because there has been no woman like that in history.
What if you are given the choice between a woman who covers
her face with make-up or another woman who takes care of her entire body
every day spending several hours? Which would you choose? If such a woman
truly exists don't you want to go and take a look at her? There are people
who would even pay for that. Originally when the time comes for you to
pick your spouse you should be able to look at your spouse naked and see
how balanced he or she is.
Skin color is an adaptation
to the environment
Originally the white race who have deep blue eyes, brown
hair and high noses originate in the North Pole. Your ancestors came from
the Arctic area, the North Pole, always surrounded by white snow. They
longed for blue colored water. In biology classes at school didn't you
learn that animals can adjust their skin color to their environment? By
the same token the white race came about through this environment.
While in South America recently, Father caught a fish
called baku. While catching that fish the color of the skin of that
particular fish was more yellowish whilst in the water. But as soon as
the fish was brought out of the water it turned black. Why? The fish itself
tried to protect itself. Even low level fish are able to do that. Therefore,
human beings can adapt to their environment. Therefore the white race who
originate from the Arctic area have nothing to be proud of. You should
go back to the Arctic. (Laughter) That is true.
If you are in the North Pole certainly you cannot do farming.
The weather conditions would not allow for it. What else can you do? You
simply have to hunt whatever you can in order to survive. Those hunters
who always go after blood may kill each other in order to take the animals
that have been killed. White people have a long high nose with narrow nostrils.
The reason for this is that the air can warm up whilst traveling up through
your nostrils. Whereas people living in the tropics have short noses and
wide open nostrils. This is the correct explanation by Reverend Moon. I
only speak the truth. Amen. (Amen)
The white race of hunters enslaved
their black brothers and sisters
In human history the people from the Arctic region stayed
around Scandinavia. When they ran out of food then moved down towards England
and Ireland and became pirates. England was a place where pirates went
and hid their treasures. They were a strong nation of hunters. Eventually
Great Britain had the strongest empire upon which they claimed the sun
would never set.
These white people went to Africa and sold their black
brothers and sisters into slavery. They colonized those countries and killed
thousands of innocent people. But the world is not the world of the white
race is it? (No) When the sun sets it goes down. History proves that the
time of white domination of other races has ended. Why is it in general
that the white race doesn't like the black race? Historically speaking,
due to the brutality of the white race the relationship between black and
white people has become that of enemies. The historical facts demonstrate
that the white race did not do so much good for the sake of the black race.
America is like a battlefield between the white and black races to a certain
degree. Isn't that true? (Yes)
Asians have round flat noses and wide faces. They look
like a rice paddy. (Laughter) The round nose indicates they want to become
rich. (Laughter) If your face is round and big and your nose is small and
flat it will be like a soccer field. (Laughter) The culture of Asian people
stems from farming. When there is not enough rain farmers stand and look
up towards heaven or they sit down and pray for rain. They are ever hanging
onto God's grace. That is why the major religions all came out from the
Orient. Four great saints are from the Orient.
The oriental race will mediate
between white and black
Black race always go after the tropical fruits from their
region. The white race from the Arctic region always hunt and kill animals.
The oriental race are always farming and waiting for God's grace. Amongst
these three categories which one tends to have more desire to reach towards
God and receive His grace? (The orientals) That is why the saints came
out from the Orient. If the battle between white and black brothers and
sisters still exists in the world today, who is going to be the mediator
between them? These mediators should come from God-loving people. The first
Messiah came from the orient. Also the Lord of the Second Advent will come
out of the oriental race. Amen. (Applause) Some people may say that Father
is promoting himself through this. Father is very famous in this country
of America. But is Father famous in a good or a bad sense? Who in fact
is good and who is bad between America and Father? (Father is good) Who
won the battle between America and Reverend Moon? (Reverend Moon)
It is said that whoever comes to America becomes assimilated
within five years. The famous term "melting pot" is always used to describe
America. However, Reverend Moon came to America over twenty five years
ago but he has not become Americanized at all. Rather he has caused America
to become Moonized. Day by day the size of Reverend Moon's followers will
grow rapidly. (Amen) (Applause) [Father writes on the board] Amen means
number one man. We seem to have been laughing away our first hour or so
here.
Humans stand in the position of initiator of
harmony between God and all things
Human beings stand in the position of initiator of harmony
between God and all things. There should be cause and effect. How can we
move this? We need a center. The right hand reaches God and the left hand
holds onto all things. You spin around and all of heaven and earth will
spin together. As long as you keep your grip upon God and all things, God's
eye and all things will move around together with you in the same direction
as your eyes. If you truly revolve around in this way God will want to
spin around one million times per hour with you. Even if you spin around
with God one million times per hour, do you think the axis should be turned
around or there should be one center point that you spin around? When anything
spins fast it gets uplifted and flies away. Therefore you need a strong
anchor.
When you show your hand to indicate your desire for something
do you show your right or left hand? (Right hand) Right hand. Make sure
to keep this kind of balance. Stay with God and keep a grip on all things.
This is the way you can keep your balance and turn around together. It
is natural for everyone to be right handed. Those who are left handed show
your hand to Father. If you were in Asia you would have a difficult time
to marry. Try to correct it. Even when you write try to change to the right
hand. There is a common understanding in Asia that the woman stands on
the left hand side of her husband. The Asians learn the beauty of combination
through mastering the use of chopsticks. Even your five senses have the
subject and object relationship built in. Why? Because the entire universe
exists in this way.
The structure of the Korean language has this reciprocal
subject and object relationship built into it. When we try to explain a
person's gait we say wi chim wi chim. We say it twice in a more
balanced way by repeating the word. Also in English when we want to indicate
a person's pace or speed we can say, slowly, slowly. Rather than just slowly.
It makes a reciprocal balanced relationship. In Korean we say bali,
bali. All of this indicates the Oriental philosophy and way of thinking.
Therefore Asia is the place where such philosophy and spiritual teaching
usually comes from. Reverend Moon came from Korea, which is part of Asia.
(Mansei) Who did mansei? Do you like Reverend Moon? (Yes) How long
did it take for you to like Reverend Moon, just one day, or a month or
several years? [One day] [Laughter].
For twenty or thirty years before coming to this country
Father was praying for and loving this country America. He has been investing
himself for the sake of this country. What about you? Have you thought
about Reverend Moon in this way. You are sitting in front of Reverend Moon
on this particular day. However, some day maybe one-third of you might
disappear. [No] Please remember that on this Day of All Things that we
are indebted to all things. Even one strand of your hair is indebted to
all things. Nothing is our own. We are in debt to all things for everything.
Therefore we should be able to say to the world that the extension of myself
is everything on this earth. The soil, the trees, the mountains etc. In
this way we should be able to demonstrate our appreciation to the world.
By doing so we should come to the realization that all things of creation
are sacrificing every ounce of themselves in order to support and maintain
my life. How then can I repay my debt?
All things are waiting to meet the owner who
can love them as God loves them
We can label human beings as the ones who have killed
the most animals in human history. How then can we eliminate this debt?
Are we good or evil beings? Evil beings. (Evil beings) When you shout out
like that all forty billion cells of your body all nodded in agreement.
How can we be forgiven? By offering our love to all things. Because if
we truly understand the reality, the entire universe is more precious than
our own children. More precious than anything else. All things are waiting
to meet the owner who can love them as God loves them. They are longing
for that true owner who can care and love them like God and True Parents.
Because all things want to be treated with appreciation by the true children
of God. Once we reach that level all things will be happy to be absorbed
by human beings.
The purpose of the existence of all things is to be absorbed
by the owner of true love in this world. When they are taken and absorbed
by this true love owner they will be happy and look forward to that. The
cells of the mineral kingdom are absorbed by plants. The cells and elements
of plants are absorbed by animals and eventually animals are there to be
taken and absorbed by human beings. [Father draws a diagram on the board]
What do they look like? Man and woman. Where do you think all the cells
and minerals from the mineral, plant and animal kingdom go to? What part
of the human body absorbs them? What is the final destination that all
things desires? [Sexual organ] That is true. Human sexual organs is what
God poured most effort into. Isn't this true? Some may still think that
as the founder of the Unification Church Father should not refer to the
sexual organ in public. (Laughter) Ordinarily Christian ministers don't
refer to sexual organs in their sermon.
God created human sexual organs to be
a most holy sacred place
God created human sexual organs to be a most holy place,
a sacred place, not what it has become since the Fall of Adam. Do you understand?
It is supposed to be a holy palace. Love palace refers to the sexual organ
in God's original plan. This is the truth. All the cells from the mineral,
plant and animal kingdom all want to eventually arrive at human beings
sexual organ and be apart of it. But they cannot travel directly there.
Therefore, minerals have to be absorbed by plants, plants by animals and
animals by man. In this way they can eventually reach their destination.
Under the universal law of existence the higher level of creation absorbs
the lower levels of creation. Charles Darwin's evolution theory states
that the strong eat the weak. According to Darwin's evolution theory we
are the worst people. But it is actually not so. It is a natural universal
law. If we take Darwin's evolution theory literally then God is the worst
kind of being. Because God planned creation in a certain way. When love
is involved there is no evil. Even mother birds sacrifice their own lives
for the sake of their babies. How about you American mothers? (Yes Father)
Sound is good. However, your content is not so good.
A promiscuous woman may
hate the father of her child
In our world today, many teenage mothers abandon their
newborn babies in garbage cans. That is even worse than animals. The practice
of free sex is absolutely not acceptable. If people practice free sex,
it means a woman might bear a child from a man whom she hates. Consequently
she throws that child away. They do not take responsibility for their actions.
Do you understand? All things are awaiting your appreciation and your love.
When you relate with all things in your daily lives, you should feel in
your heart, this is what is providing everything for my husband, my children
and myself. Then express that deep appreciation. That kind of love is what
all things are longing to receive. If we truly reach that level in dealing
with all things, then you will feel like dividing one third of food you
have and share it with all things again. If you truly have that kind of
heart you will never become sick. The universe will protect you. You will
live a healthy life.
Is Father always healthy? (Yes) One time at the age of
eight years Father had to lay down because of sickness. But since that
time he never got sick. (Applause) Father's heart is always the same. When
he first stepped onto America soil Father declared to the universe he loved
America more than anyone else ever has. The person who loves the most will
become the true owner. Since Reverend Moon offers everything and loves
America more than anyone else in human history, automatically those who
oppose Father without knowing that reality will eventually surrender.
Whoever offers more love will
become the final winner.
Whoever offers more love will become the final winner.
The ones who offer more love resemble God. Therefore God will protect them
and make those people victors and owners. (Applause) Those of you who love
Reverend Moon raise your hands. Have you been bribed? (No)
Father often invites world level dignitaries for various
activities. Then Father is criticized and accused of bribing them to come.
But in reality they come and contribute. (Applause) We need to truly hang
onto God and place a grip on all things and make a perfect circular movement.
Then we need to become the harmonizing point between husband and wife,
parents and children, heaven and earth and truly become the initiators
of harmony. That is how the Kingdom of God on Earth will be built. On this
Day of All Things we can know that all things are truly waiting
for true love, and the true center of harmony. Amen. (Amen) This doesn't
mean you have to go to Argentina and buy a farm and raise cattle. You can
simply buy a pet dog or cat and share your love with them. If you have
one animal at home you should feel that it represents many species of animals.
[Father draws on the board] What is this, a goat or a dog? (Laughter)
Just as there are three stages of growth, keep three animals
at home. Whatever kind of animal. [Father continues to draw on the board]
Even this lady bug Father draws could be your pet. One way of taking care
of them and sharing your love for them is whenever you prepare a meal for
your children, take a portion of it and share it with your animals. Then
they will really happily grow. By doing so practically, realistically you
will develop your own concept of sharing love with them while sharing love
with your own children. Pay more attention to your pet animal. By sharing
your love with one lady bug, this one bug represents the entire insect
kingdom. If you have your own pet lady bug at home on a cool fall night
when the moon is high and bright millions of insects will come around and
create this natural insect orchestra. How beautiful! If truly these insects
come together to create a natural orchestra you can control their tone
through using a small stick to beat and create a rhythm. If it is high
pitched then follow that pitch. If it is low pitched do the same. How wonderful
and happy that situation would be.
The birds, frogs and insects make
a wonderful orchestra
Father came to realize that the frogs on the South American
continent create such a wonderful orchestra. Father is accustomed to the
singing of frogs in Korea. However, there is no comparison. In South America
there are scores of different species of frogs and they create all different
melodies. Father takes off his shoe and together with this frog orchestra
he keeps time with their beat. (Laughter) That is true. It was so wonderful.
You don't get tired of Father's sermon do you? (No) If you truly have enjoyed
this, even if we construct a metal door to keep you out you would somehow
get in. Do you follow Father? (Yes)
In South America Father goes out fishing and sits on a
small stool for twelve hours sometimes. Sitting still by the riverside,
If he makes too much noise the fish will swim away. Therefore, Father has
to sit quietly doing nothing staring at the water and the fishing pole.
Then from the trees and bushes around one bird begins to chirp. Then gradually
as time passes these birds attract other birds. Then they become ten and
sometimes hundreds and they begin singing together. That is really beautiful.
You will never know how sweet it is.
The bird orchestra is truly more interesting than fishing.
(Laughter) Certain birds' song isn't necessarily pleasant. They sound as
if they are shouting. That is the way that particular bird calls its lover
and children. Therefore one should be able to enjoy it also. When Father
is communicating with nature to that degree do you think Father feels tired?
Sometimes Father will experiment by shouting out loud. Then immediately
all the hundreds of birds stops singing. (Laughter) After a few minutes
one courageous bird begins chirping again and they all follow. (Laughter)
People become tired sitting hour upon hour. But these
birds never seem to tire of singing together. Why not? Because their song
is the song of love. They are dancing by flying from one branch to another.
They always move and demonstrate to one another. If the female bird flies
and the male doesn't follow she will chirp as if to say, "come on, what
are you doing?" (Laughter) Then the male bird follows her. Father learned
a lesson from that give and take with nature. If anyone can truly communicate
with nature and enjoy this give and take, such people will never consider
divorce. (Applause) Because if you truly observe nature you will realize
the pair system.
Give and take between pairs is always in operation in
nature. Even between flies when the male and female sit together and there
is one portion of food, the male fly always indicates to the female to
take it. (Laughter) Unless you have the experience of prison life you will
never understand what Father is going to say now. But when flies are buzzing
around you can attract them by placing your saliva on your finger and offer
it. Usually one fly lands and tastes the human saliva. Then another partner
will come and enjoy together. Then immediately you can close your fingers
and catch two flies at one time. (Laughter)
Because you have nothing to do in the prison, once you
catch these two flies you cut off one piece of their wings so they cannot
fly away. Then set them free, they crawl around the floor but always together
in a pair. If you feed them they will remain with you making a friendship.
This is true. In reality in the world human beings are worst than animals.
Therefore is this Day of All Things which we celebrate here as the Family
Federation for World Peace a good or bad day? (Good day) Amen. Amen. Amen.
That is the sound which all the animals and plants who have lived and died
and those which will come into existence in the future long to hear. Wherever
Reverend Moon goes this heavenly fate and fortune goes with him. Therefore,
don't we feel empty whenever Father leaves from America? (Yes)
Brothers and sisters long for True Father
Whenever Father remains in America the Korean brothers
and sisters are praying every night in a prayer vigil and counting the
days. As soon as Father arrives they are so happy. Also in South America
brothers and sisters who are a thousand miles away try their best to come
to see Father. People who don't understand the Divine Principle might
feel that their husbands are normal and doing well. Their children are
growing well so why are they attracted by Reverend Moon. That is why they
misunderstand Father through this. According to the Christian tradition
it is normal for the pastor to give a sermon for less than one hour. But
here today Father has been speaking for more than two hours so far. In
the outside world, if you became bored you would find an excuse to get
out. But here, even though you need the bathroom you try to hold it because
Father is sharing with you giving out so much power and energy. That is
why you are considered crazy. Do you truly like Father? (YES) Father is
asking the brothers this question. Because if all of you sisters respond
then True Mother might feel sad. (Laughter) But of course Mother will be
only happy to hear that you all love Father. That is why Father loves her.
(Amen) (Applause) Just like God, whatever I do, wherever I look I offer
my love so my life is totally centered upon the give and take relationship
of love. This is my life. Amen. (Applause) The original palace of Amen
is the Kingdom of God in Heaven. That is our destination. Amen. (Amen)
From there we can inherit everything from God. AMEN. (AMEN)
Please join me in prayer.
