Received
through Mrs. Y. S. Kim, National Messiah
(Dr. Lee
began with praying "True Parents! I wish that you can be consoled from my
letter.")
True
Parents! I would like to give my best regard to You. I wish that I could get
your love and forgiveness because of my impiety of my earthly life. I cannot but
feel very sorry to True Parents because prior to True Parent, I came here to the
spiritual world.
I know
very well the continuous desperate efforts of True Parents to fulfill the 3.6
million couple international blessing successfully. In this spiritual world, our
members are also working very hard to witness people. However, even though we
make efforts very hard to restore the spiritual world, the fundamental things
can be resolved only when True Parents come. I feel very sorry for that because
it would be a trouble to True Parents.
Since
blessing in the spiritual world will be conducted by True Father, many people
are waiting for you. Now, we are giving a lecture that the door of the hell will
be opened and the hell will be liberated. However, even though we try to do our
best, it cannot be compared with True Father's efforts. We wish that our small
effort can reduce your burden.
True
Parents!
When I
lived in the physical world, some intellectuals often asked me about the
spiritual world, but I could not answer about it. Whenever academic seminars
were held, there were people who asked about the spiritual world. But I could
not give a clear answer. The problem regarding the spiritual world was like to a
riddle, which could not be solved by myself. Accordingly, without systematizing
the doctrine of the spiritual world, I came to come here. Therefore, the reason
why I try to tell about the spiritual world in detail is: firstly, I want to
solve all questions of earthly people. Secondly, I want to help the lives of
members on earth. Thirdly, even though this is a very small portion, I want to
reduce True Parents' trouble. Fourthly, I feel guilty consciousness because I
came to the spiritual world prior to True Father.
True
Father!
So far,
humble your son, Sang Heun has looked around various areas of the spiritual
world. As long as it is possible, I want to search for all around the spiritual
world. Now, I am going to send what I have surveyed in the spiritual world. If
it has some mistakes, please blame me and correct it. It is my sincere heart
that I want to help members by revealing the secret of the spiritual world This
is because I wish that as knowing the spiritual world, people living in the
physical world would not commit sin, and without sin, come to the spiritual
world. By doing so, I wish that True Father's burden would be reduced when True
Father comes to that world. Moreover, that is also because God is poor.
True
Father!
I would
like to deeply appreciate for sending me to this blessed place, and giving the
name of "Blessed Man". After finishing my earthly life with your grace
and blessing, I came to the spiritual world. So, I will desperately devote
myself to liberate the Hell in this eternal world
True
Father and True Mother!
We as
blessing couple are asking for your forgiveness because we are living
comfortable lives in the spiritual world. We would like to offer full bow in
front of True Parents. May True Parents live long lives!

"I
would like to offer this letter to our beloved members."
Dear
members! What shall I write first? Nobody can escape the spiritual world. It is
the way of heavenly law which everybody has to go. I am very missing our members
of Unification Church since I came to this spiritual world. I am really
concerned about how to make all members not violate heavenly law in the physical
world, so that they would be able to pass the spiritual world.
Once you
violate the law of the spiritual world, you cannot solve it easily, and you have
to pay the price of indemnity through a suffering life in the spiritual world.
Beloved members of the Unification Church! How hard time have you have so far? I
wish that when you come to this eternal world, you can have happy lives. I wish
that you would not try to escape the momentary hard time. If you are doing so,
you will get the eternal lives.
If you
violate heavenly law, your descendants have to pay indemnity in stead of you.
When True Parents put in order the spiritual world, your wrong behavior would
make True Parents' heart painful.
Dear
members of the Unification Church! My name is Sang Heun Lee, who wrote
Unification Thought. I am going to send you what I surveyed in the spiritual
world. Please read it carefully, and make your earthly lives successfully. By
doing so, let's console the painful heart of True Parents, and pray that True
Parents may have long lives.
Please
read my message very carefully. You should check your daily lives everyday by
True Parents' speech. This is my advice as your senior member to help you to
fulfill your responsibility successfully on earth. May God bless all of you!
August
21, 1997 From Sang Heun.
Section
2a
Earthly Life and Life in
the Spiritual World
1) My
name is Sang Heun Lee. Please don't try to test who I am. I feel bad for that. I
had wanted to meet you more often during my earthly life. However, it was not
easy to meet each other so often.
Dear
Mrs. Kim! Through you, I am going to complete what I did not complete during my
earthly life. Please don't say that you have no any qualification for doing that.
2)
Unification Thought is the fundamental thought which True Father gave to us, but
many people try to understand it just intellectually. Therefore, throughout my
whole life time in the physical world, I was trying to write many books to make
people understand Unification Thought more easily. However, I could not fulfill
that completely. Therefore, from the spiritual world, I am going to send you
what I did not complete in the physical world, so that you should give it to all
people.
Mrs.
Kim! From my earthly life, I have known that you worked very hard. Therefore,
from now on, I am going to help you centering on Rev. Ho Woong Chung's family in
the spiritual world. Please, wait for this. Even though God said that I don't
need to stay on earth for 40 days, I will go around the earth as well as the
spiritual world as far as I can, so that I will systematize my thought and send
that to you. My wife also have many things to talk to you.
Mrs.
Kim! Even though for a while you may feel trouble because of me, please forgive
me. After putting in order my thought for 40 days, I will come back again.
Although you go to Australia, I can go there. Then, I will visit you again.
Thank you.
3) Also,
I would like to appreciate very much because everybody overpraised my life in
the Seung Hwa ceremony.
1) To
Kyum Hwan, Jang Hwan, and Jin Won.
I want
to talk with all of you for long time, but because of limited time, I am going
to give my regard through this letter.
Kyum Hwan! Jang Hwan! Jin Won! The spiritual world which you cannot see can be described
shortly like this:
"What
a useless life the physical world was!
It was nothing.
It was nothing.
Oh! God! Oh! God!"
I don't
know well how I can describe this infinite spiritual world. God is invisible.
Even though I am in the Kingdom of Heaven, I cannot see God. However, there is
brilliant and fascinate light, which cannot explained by human's brain,
intellect, and reason.
Before
such bright light, all contents of our lives are disclosed completely. In this
brilliant light, we can have the same feeling of relief, safety, and happiness
as what a baby feel when it is feeding mother's milk. In this light, everything
seems to be melted like a blast furnace. We can call it the blast furnace of
love.
Oh! God!
How such
a wonderful world it may be ahead! Sweet scent, beautiful melody, which we
haven't met before .
My
Children!
Even
though your father tries to write down all night about the spiritual world, it
would not be able to express completely. Let me ask a question. How longer are
you going to live on earth? What is your purpose of your lives? As your parents,
I want to ask you to read thoroughly Unification Thought which I wrote and
Divine Principle which True Father wrote. After reading that, you should decide
your way. If there is greater teaching than those books, you may follow that.
However, if you think that there is no such thought, you should work with your
whole energy and life for the sake of God's will. You should not listen in local
news such as various bad rumors and negative things about Unification Church,
but must listen in the central news.
At the
day of Seung Hwa Ceremony, many people over praised me. I want you as my
children to receive those expression humbly. In the near future, I will explain
about this huge spiritual world through Mrs. Kim after putting in order my
thinking systematically and logically. I will also speak to the group of
professors about the spiritual world. You also have to help Mrs. Kim. You should
study how to live. Please keep in mind that the physical world which you are
living is valueless one and momentary world.
1997
From your father. March 28,
2) To my
beloved sons (a letter from mother)
Kyum Hwan!, Jang Hwan!, Jin Won!
Please
listen 100 % carefully what your father talked. As your mother, what I want to
ask to you is that you would have close relationship one another and help others.
Please always look around if there is anything which you can help. How are you
going to manage the problem of inheritance? After discussing about that between
you, please talk to Mrs. Kim. Your father said that he would make conclusion
about that. I also ask that you should study True Parents. How happy you are
because you can listen this precious news from the spiritual world! As your
mother, I appreciate very much for that.
From
your mother.
3) After
examining my life, please study Unification Thought. Please, follow me. (Father's
advice to his sons)
4)
Question of family members and Answer (dying wish)
(1) Q:
What do you think of impiety
A: Since
I did not fulfill filial piety to God completely, how can I desire for the
filial piety from my sons? If you want to do filial piety, please follow True
Parents when you come to think that your father's life was very valuable.
(2) Q:
Why did you go outside window?
A:
Nobody would go through window if one knows that it is window. But I went
through the window because it looked like a way. Please, don't ask any more
about that. I have no any regret about my past life. I do not even repent. If
there is something which I need to repent, it is that I had not much more
intellectuals enlightened.
(3) Q:
How shall we do with your belongings?
A:
Please donate important thing to Sun Moon University and burn away others.
(4)
Instruction to his sons:
You
should live for the sake of God's will. If you think that Unification Thought
and Divine Principle are truth, you should follow that with all your mind, heart,
and life. What will you have to do? Be practice after judging what is helpful to
God's will! In the spiritual world, I will make educational materials which can
be vital elements to people in the physical world.
(5)
Instruction to staffs of Unification Thought Institute:
Please
develop Unification Thought Institute. I will help you.
*God's
word
(1) Sang
Heun Lee! Congratulations your coming into God's bosom!
(2) God
called me "Heavenly Man."
(3) God
said that Sang Heun is trying to go around no matter where it is spiritual world
or physical world. He is working very hard.
*Private
conversation (March 29, 1997)
Mrs.
Kim! I wish that you come here after your living on earth for the same age as
mine. It is because through you, I want to disclose everything about the
spiritual world as far as I can. We are now in new marriage. (Mrs. Kim saw the
vision which family members are gathering around dinning table of the house
filled with brilliant and fascinate light.)
*To
Churl Ha Hwang and Jong Sam Lee.
"Thank
you for attending today's meeting. Please publish this letter as well-refined
book to deliver to the intellectual groups."( 10 PM, July 21, 1997)
Mrs.
Kim! My name is Sang Heun Lee. When you test me if I am a Satan, my pride is
broken very much. I would appreciate very much if you believe me when God
concedes me.
1)
Spiritual World
Even
though the spiritual world seems to be the same as the visible phenomenal world,
the scale of the spiritual world cannot be compared with the one of the physical
world. For instance, in the phenomenal world, a car is limited in the space, but
in spiritual world, a car can be changed to various types. Its direction is also
free. It can pass through the mountain at a moment and can move as a driver's
thinking. It can move freely like doing in fantasy movies or mysterious Universe
travel, which children like very much. When reporter asked if there is car
accident, he said "Even though they look like disorder, because they are
keeping the law thoroughly, there are no car accidents at all."
2) Life
in the spiritual world
Like
that earthly people wake up in the morning and sleep at night, spiritual people
are also doing in the same way. However, in the spiritual world, morning and
night are not in the same order. According to one's thinking, morning and night
can be changed. I don't know who distinguished the spiritual world as the Hell,
Paradise, and the Kingdom of Heaven respectively, but it is very proper
expression. They have big gaps in their level of life. For example, the Hell is
the world which we can never see in the physical world.
One
woman is standing as a nude without wearing pants, and beside her, a man touches
her lower part of the body, and beside them, the other woman fights with arguing
that the man's lower part is her own. However, they do not feel shameful.
When a
Japanese woman runs wearing wooden shoes and fall down, other woman comes and
hides the shoes like her own. The woman who lost her shoes tries to find her
shoes, but the woman who hid the shoes says that she don't know. At that time,
people, who saw that, shout out that that woman is bad one, thief, and come to
her, striking and kicking her. Those things happen very often.
When an
old man cannot eat food because his finger was hurt, an young man comes, taking
that food, and eating all with his mouth. Such kind of things are always
happening in the hell.
Woman,
who was forced to get her hair cut fully, feels ashamed of that, and hides her
head by towel. But every people, who are passing by her, takes that towel and
cleans their hands and faces. When the owner of the towel takes it again from
the people and covers it on her head, people take it again forcibly, cutting it
off as a half by scissors and returning the other half to her. So, because she
cannot hide her shameful part, she tries to go to the dark place.
(Today's
words spoken not with excitement but with quiet and calm.)
1)
Heaven is the place where thought and action become one. What kind of name is
heaven? I don't know but these sentences are written either in heaven or Eden.
Either way it is the place where words and deeds are one. As an example if I
think, "Today what kind of meat will I eat, what do I want to eat?",
with that thought simultaneously a huge feast will appear before me. Also if I
think, "Today where do I want to go, who do I want to see?", I'm
already there.
Even if
I think, "How about if that person isn't dressed when I arrive there?",
and he happens to be stark naked, then we will have a good laugh. I thought,
"When both blind (while they were on earth), and people with good eyesight
come to heaven, what will be the difference between them?". A grandfather,
and a midget were standing in front of me. The midget was blind but grandfather
had good eyesight, so I asked, "In heaven are there blind people?"
Their answer was, "We came because you asked a question. When on earth I
was blind but here in heaven there is not even the expression of blindness,
there is no blindness. I can see everything." I asked, "Grandfather,
you can see so why did you come?" He said, "You didn't ask about the
point of difference of seeing or not." "You just asked what's the
difference." "You can see both with your eyes and with your
mind." "With eyes you can visibly see an object but the thing you can
see with your mind you can see better than with your eyes."
Heaven
is the place where you are surrounded by many bright jewels, because of such
great brightness and luster you cannot hide any difficulties between each other.
Everything is seen and known with eyes and mind. If I express with light, golden
hair which dazzles, it is golden light which is filled with ecstasy of luster
and radiant light. This is the place where your mind is always filled with peace
and serenity, where there is no difficulty, no discomfort, and no hunger. This
heaven is a place where you will have no difficulty to express or explain
anything.
2) Hell
is the place where you cannot imagine in heaven
In hell
you are hungry and suffering, and there is too much jealousy and discomfort. Due
to such suffering there cannot but be much fighting. Everyone is uncomfortable.
In heaven you have freedom to follow your mind, but in hell you can't do even
one thing according to your own will. There you take others' things by force and
eat by stealth. People on earth cannot imagine how bad hell really is.
3) Sang-Hun-ah! It's love.
On earth,
if Father introduces a story of love, He always speaks in reference to convex,
and concave. If you come to the point of love you think about convex and concave
but this kind of word, you realize, is too magnanimous. Calling out, "Sang-Hun-ah,"
that sound has such a feeling of love that it is like melting down everything.
Having such sensitivity that must forgive even a brutal crime, being comfortable
when near a person who stinks bad with the smell of fish, the thing which feels
the passive feeling of ease and comfort. Calling it just using the word "love"
is not adequate. It's just a little better, it's having a feeling without
another envious word. When you take a step, or speak a word, or when you wear
clothes, using just the word of "love" is unsatisfactory. God's word
is that there is no phrase beautiful or deep enough which can express, or
encompass, the thought of love. God calls out, "Sang-Hun-ah! That's love!"
If you flawlessly embrace the will of love there will be no fighting or
suffering on earth. There is no adequate way to elucidate perfectly the word ‚love'.
This is love.
4) The
concept of heaven and hell.
In
heaven there is no way to worry or have any anxiety at all. Because you are
living and going as one lump mass of love perfectly fitted. Hell is the place
where you spin around on the edge of discomfort, worry, anxiety, and conflict,
because you live in a world where you cannot know anything about love. In
summation, hell is the place alienated from love, and heaven is the holy perfect
sincerity of love. Simply speaking heaven is the place where there is nothing
that doesn't have love, and hell is the place where there is not one iota of
love. So it is possible for the fruit of love to bud and sprout and bring about
the liberation of hell.
1) What
is the middle realm of Spirit World?
On the
earth what we thought was the middle realm of Spirit World is actually somewhat
different. Amidst the many communities of the world, people worked to establish
nations which are far away from service to God. People work to elevate
themselves without concern to religion, they gather in places without a
relationship of faith.
In this
place it is difficult to see something which resembles heaven, or hell. There
are many similarities to the earth. As an example, during meal time in the
kitchen someone is working, someone is cleaning dishes, preparing food, serving
food, everyone working together. If we look at the people on this realm, in
heaven people are very bright, and in hell people are always uneasy and restless,
but here people are always very busy and working hard, never resting. At some
special event people are alive with energy and live well, but there is no
concern whatsoever of God or religion. In this place people hear Unification
Thought lecture but some people ask foolish questions, like isn't there a world
where only people alike live together? And such questions that make no sense, or
are extremely simplistic. There you feel that witnessing will take a very long
time.
The
middle realm of Spirit World is not heaven and not hell, but has many different
levels. It's a place where it is very difficult to get across to people any idea
of God or Principle or UT The middle realms are massive. So it is difficult to
explain. In this realm the common people are very distinguishable from
Unification members. Unification members are full of life. You can't observe any
difficulty among them. Also they are filled with peace and living
enthusiastically. If they have some workshop there is a lot of fun and games and
laughter and enjoyment.
Compared
to our members others appear very different. They have no pulse, no life. Their
activities are very passive and lazy. They carry weary and tired faces. Why do
the common people, as opposed to Unification Church members, have such a sad
demeanor? It's because they have no hope and no desire. But Unification Church
members in the middle realms have hope and desire because they expect and wait
for God's special privilege to come to them, and they know God's basic will.
Common people don't know God's will. They are not in a place of hope.
The
common people and Unification Church members stay in different regions. However,
sadly there are many members who cannot stay in the Unification realm of Spirit
World There are many reasons for this. 1st: Even though they received the
blessing, one person deviated from the path and they could not accomplish making
a family. 2nd: They received blessing, but lived without care of the will. 3rd:
They received the blessing but their life went out of orbit from center, of
which there are many cases.
They
have the form and name of member, they are called members and so they came to
the middle region of Spirit World What do they do in this place? This group of
members is always in the place where they can receive God's, Heung Jin Nim's,
and True Parents special blessings, and favor. How can they know this? They can
enjoy time together and hear DP lecture and receive faith guidance. Therefore
they all have hope. Also this area receives a lot of attention from God and
Heung Jin Nim.
People
of the world can enter this middle region of Spirit World but only Unification
Church members can enter the special classroom to receive the education
regarding the direction of righteousness and justice. This is really amazing.
You don't really understand the meaning of the blessing while on earth. Because
you can't see it. But from heaven there is an exorbitant condition which can be
received. Now the question of receiving the blessing, in other words True
Parents are giving the blessing without price.
The
reason is because of Parents. This is the time while True Parents are living on
the earth they are giving great blessing to you. So we must go out to give the
blessing to many people in our area. That is the way of giving blessing to
others.
2)
Paradise?
Paradise
on earth was thought to be somewhere between heaven and hell, but that is not
accurate. In paradise people form groups within which they naturally belong. For
example Koreans go to Korea town, Chinese go to Chinatown, and Japanese go to
Japan town.
1) How
are works done by people on earth recorded in Spirit World?
How
people live life on earth determines what is recorded in Spirit World For
example: how a president of a country lived his life is recorded in Spirit World
Whether or not he lived his life for himself or for the sake of his country is
what is officially recorded. If your life was just spent on petty things or
irrationally materialistic, or if you were simply an evil person, not a true
person, it is all recorded. Just like if you write your own autobiography. As
you arrange the final moments of your life you consider how you established your
life's path.
God
appears unconditionally, how wonderful if in your life you worked hard. Even the
president of a country comes to Spirit World without a guard. The foundation of
your life will appear in front of you. You become a complete spirit person 40
days after your life ends. During this 40 days you travel back and forth between
physical and spirit world, and your place of residence is prepared. During this
time God does not intervene. Although your ancestors will cooperate with you
they cannot help you 100%. Just as if the wind blows it doesn't care which
direction it blows, so you have to work yourself to establish your residence.
No one
judges you. Each person's seat of judgement is different. After you go to your
home, if you get set up in the place where you desire as far as geography and
topography are concerned, no one will force something upon you. The guide of
yourself will appear and guide you naturally. According to the way of Spirit
World the atmosphere of guidance or judgement is different.
You may
receive some benefit as a result of having spent time as president of a country,
although there were conditions which allowed you to be a large contributor to a
nation. There is no room for not keeping a position of goodness, if you don't
keep your existence of value then you'll receive punishment up to and not more
than your just desert. This is the spirit world. In this country of Spirit World
whether you are called the president or you are at the opposite end of the
social stratum, there is no sway that class distinction holds over the spiritual
foundation.
From a
moral basis we estimate the value of a person and ask to what extent did he live
a righteous life? "In spirit world," a reporter asked, "isn't
there some inferiority awareness among the lowest level worker compared to those
with much scholarly achievement? In physical world there is a distinction
between the learned and the unlearned." The answer, "In spirit world
the field of your work is different from your scholarly major that you had on
earth.
But your
greatest embarrassment is not that but rather if you made some mistake in your
life and you were ignorant of the value of your life. How the distinction of
academic achievement appears in Spirit World is very different compared with the
earth.
2) The
difference between religious and non-religious people.
The
difference between a person of faith and a person of no faith is enormous. This
also has a considerable class structure, or several levels. While living a life
of faith, a sincere person is really able to get close to God's favor but even
if you live according to faith, if you have no conscientiousness, whether or not
you have faith doesn't matter. >From a position of ignorance of God a person
who is alive in a common position comes to reside in a place where God has
nothing to do with them. Regarding both religious and non-religious people,
God's grace comes later to the non- religious. Even in heaven when a favor is
bestowed there are apprehensions. God gives His blessing to humankind through
the Holy Spirit, and as loving humankind, heaven also receives benefit. The time
will come when you will move to a place that you desire, and whatever class
position you are in your body will achieve freedom. (There is caring when people
on earth pray together.) At that time, based on God's command, there will be
movement.
3) What
is the difference between Unification Members position and other religions'
members.
It is a
huge difference. I can explain this in a word. Spirit world regions are
different. Here according to the form of life of each member, each one is a
little different from another but, all realms in Spirit World are different.
Here the thing which, as I've said is hugely different, is the position of God.
There are limits to which people of other religions can hear or feel, or talk to
God. But Unification Church members by all means are in a position to be able to
breathe the same with God.
Here
also there are several layers amidst a group. There are distinguishable revered
positions. I'm sorry but, it is for the sake of our members that Sang-Hun Lee is
speaking so as to enable and help us to not only adjust our lives here on earth
but also to help for when we go to Spirit World This is because of thinking
about going the way of True Parents. The 36 couples position is intense.
Regarding
the class of families this is the highest, but from this highest position I
truly cannot express the difficulty and hardship connected with it, and to have
all of our own mistakes disclosed. As an example: when on earth, the problem of
women, the problem of public money and all the other problems which higher
families get caught in is not hell, but you go to live in God's house where
everything of yourself is exposed.
You
experience the high level without being able to speak a word. For example: We
see at all times sex with a different woman. Also using public money for
yourself and going to the bar and falling with a woman, we see everything. That
place is even scarier than even one word of hell. Whether of a low level family
or any other type of family. There are many levels according to the nature of
the crime/sin committed. However we are mostly in the realm of Spirit World
closest to God.
There is
also a prison where such people of grave sins are kept. How wonderful if you can
go the way of indemnifying your sin gathering in such a place among those
criminals. There is no place here where you can indemnify and solve your sin by
yourself.
*God's
grace
Spirit
people through prayer, tithing, service, and other such public efforts made for
the sake of descendants on earth, the door to the prison will be opened and
they'll be able to leave. If such a one comes out they will receive guidance
according to their position. After paying all your indemnity at what point will
you be able to live peacefully? Until your descendants indemnify your sin. So if
your descendants pray for you and offer their whole heart, the spirits who
benefit from that will escape their misery. But your position is to escape only
to come back again. If earth people pray and invest their heart for you it
inevitably shortens your indemnity period. They mostly don't however know your
situation. So you must undergo such a course of mental suffering for quite a
long time. If your path of hardship is long in Spirit World then whether your
descendants on earth know or not you are incessantly hindered. If ancestors are
miserable, then descendants are also in an uncomfortable position. More simply
put, when ancestors commit crime, descendants will receive the punishment. There
is no way but to remember the way of heaven. You must go the way of
righteousness.
Mrs.
Kim! This is Sang-Hun Lee. I am Sang-Hun Lee. If
you record my words your health will gradually improve.
1) Life
in Spirit World
Spirit
People decide their life's position by how they lived on earth. If you live to
take one place for yourself then you will live in a position praying for a
thousand years without special grace. In other words, people in Spirit World who
live with peace whose position in Spirit World was decided by the life they
lived on earth also enable their descendants to live peacefully. But if people
lived evil lives then when they come to Spirit World they will live in hell and
their descendants will always be oppressed with problems. For example: If we
look at a person who undergoes life in hell in Spirit World they are really in
pain. The environment is dark and as in a prison there is no freedom. There is
nothing to eat or wear.
Your
descendants can do nothing on earth to undo and disentangle all your evil deeds.
They don't know how to carry your burden nor how to pray for you. But if their
ancestors wrong doing becomes known, and they serve with utmost sincerity and
pray, then the spirit person can receive some grace. That Spirit People can move
to a different place where he is treated hospitably and undergoes a change. Who
will make that happen? That is the subject of my talk today. Whether you spend
money on earth or not there is some support for you, but it's not the same in
Spirit World The wind blows, flowers bloom, and birds sing but you can't change
just because someone commands you to.
There is
no one who could command you to change and you would. It can only happen within
yourself. You must come to the point of recognition of yourself. If descendants
sincerely offer their hearts for the sinners in Spirit World then such Spirit
People can come to the point of understanding themselves and how to change.
Fortunately there are a lot of people who share this kind of thing. On earth
while a shaman dances and delves into the ancestors situation, they can only
comfort the ancestors. They cannot solve their position. But if they receive
grace for the sake of praying for the higher dimension of Spirit World then they
may be able to search out heavens messenger, and God's commandment.
2) Life
of earth people.
Therefore
life of people on earth is so important. It takes too much time for moving the
position of Spirit People so they can receive special grace. It takes a long
time to get beyond ignorance. Because of that adjust your focus on the eternal
world and live that way, and while adjusting your earth life humankind would
live lives of much more wisdom. We are hoping that there is no person who is
foolish in their faith whose life isn't full of eternal mistakes because the
natural outcome is a nation full of such people here. They can't solve anything.
On the other hand, regarding life in that country, I can't explain everything
but, to summarize in a word your life should be fruitful, you should bear fruit.
You should harvest the land. If I speak more plainly, committing sin leads only
to hell. Live a life of goodness and that is the action of heaven. Please live
well for the sake of eternity.
(June
23, 1997)
Mrs.
Kim! This is Sang-Hun Lee. Thank you. Thank you very much for preparing your
mind beforehand to receive.
a) Earth
bound people.
First
let's take a look at the people on earth. Earth bound people look with physical
eyes, touch physically, and act physically. Earth bound people live physically
limited to a confined amount of space. For example: Humans live through a time
period of 10, 20, or 60 years. Also on earth even though I desired something I
could not attain it. Earth people are able to artificially make things, but they
cannot adequately bring about the appearance of something of the mind which
occurred as thought. Earth people get hungry, but if they don't move they won't
eat. Also because you act within finite space, when you are missed by someone in
the realm of thought it just stops there. Also when you go through physical pain,
regarding the solution, you don't know for sure. For example: when people of
faith have illness they turn to prayer and other such approaches to healing, but
non-believers just go to the hospital.
b)
Spirit People (Spirit People)
Spirit
people are different. Spirit People, because they are not confined by physical
bodies, have an infinite realm to act in. Let's look at an example: whether
looking, touching, or acting, because it appears simultaneously with your
thought, there is no length of time. Because Spirit People can simultaneously
move something with thought as with the touching of the hand, time is condensed
and it doesn't require someone else to aid you to solve a problem. Spirit People
at the same instant of having some instinctive thought it is delivered to
another person, and doesn't require words. Spirit People when they feel they
have developed their logic with definiteness and exact precision, they can
deliver the exact details and it will appear right before the face of the other
person.
So by
yourself you can very quickly express your circumstances because you recognize
your partners expression of feeling. Spirit People can know completely all of
God's creation from the beginning, and the whole concept of what we call a
person, so we can never cause pain to God's mind. (This is one thing that
separates heaven from hell.) Spirit People if they work hard from their own
sphere they become the highest master of something and a reward comes to them.
There is no greed and so they always carry a tranquil countenance. (This is also
a dividing point of heaven and hell.) In other words, for the sake of solving a
problem of food or clothing, there is no harassment, and no annoyance and our
facial expressions are always benign and humble.
If I
summarize the difference between physical and spirit people, physical people
live and act within the confines of space. They are always busy acting to solve
problems of difficulty and suffering due to food and clothing needs but, Spirit
People can move freely throughout limitless space. Because the worries of food
and clothing are removed we are infinitely bright and humble. Our conclusion
from here is bearing the fruit of your physical life and when you come to heaven
you'll find this an unmistakable comparison.
1)
Principle of Duality in spirit world.
In the
Divine Principle, in the discourse on Unification Thought, the principle of
duality teaches Give and Take Action takes place when subject and object give
and receive reciprocally generating Origin-Division-Union Action (O-D-U Action).
Through this we receive joy. This is the fundamental principle of God. So lets
talk about the difference between physical and spiritual worlds. In the physical
realm when subject and object, through Give and Take Action achieve O- D-U
Action, there is joy at becoming one.
In
Spirit World the feeling of joy which comes from becoming one in O-D-U Action
through Give and Take Action is somewhat different. For example: In the process
of giving to another and their reception there is no time involvement. Because
O-D-U happens with thought, you don't actually see any sign of Give and Take
Action. This is a clearly revealed record of the basis for heaven where
completed individuals are gathered according to the principle of duality.
2) Give
and Take Action in spirit world.
The
fundamental concept of Give and Take Action is subject and object unity through
giving and receiving with each other, and becoming one through love, we can see
this achieves the model of the Kingdom of Heaven. In heaven Give and Take Action
happens even when you just look up towards each other, you become one perfect
literal body, but in hell or outside of this realm, there is a lot of difference
in the level of Give and Take Action based on the class or position of each
person.
The
fundamental teaching of the Creation Principle is that Give and Take Action in
heaven is the place where you fundamentally accomplish and complete the purpose
of God's creation. Because hell is the place where you cannot understand God's
foundation at all, there is only one relative principle in hell, even as you
progress you must think of one very important point, in order for the
possibility of solving the problem of the liberation of hell, you must go
towards the accomplishment of Give and Take Action. This point is very similar
to the earth's situation.
3) The
intimate relationship between the life on earth and the life in Heaven
a) How
can my life on Earth be summarized in Heaven?
The
eternal position we are placed is decided based on the standard of good life and
evil life on earth. Based on around whom my life was centered on earth, the
position in the eternal world
(God's
side, Satan's side, Atheist) is decided. Though there might be some differences
in basis based on individual contributions, a spirit of nationalism and a world
view, more important thing in heaven than a spirit of nationalism and a world
view is in the formation of personality. The thought that because I worked in
higher position on earth, I would be placed in higher position in Heaven is
wrong. Therefore, the most worthwhile and fruitful life is to live with my basis
centered on God. While renouncing personal greediness, and leading a life of
reverence and respect, then it can be summarized that we can live with our heads
up in Heaven.

Questions and Answers
(1)
Questions from daughter
(a) Q:
What should we do to compensate for the impiety that we could not wait on you in
your lifetime?
A: I
just want to ask you to live sincerely and faithfully in your position
(b) Q:
Please give a word to your children.
A: I do
not want to make a clumsy explanation. If you think the path your parents have
followed is right, just follow the path. Yet, if you think otherwise, then there
is nothing I can do about it either and I will think that your father's life was
not enough for you.
(c) Q:
What about the books we are keeping?
A:
Donate them to Sun Moon University (Institute of Research for Unification
Ideology)
(d) Q:
What about the problem of the burial ground?
A: Just
do as you please, I have done nothing good for God, have I?
(e) Q:
The property..?
A: I
want you to do as you please.
(2)
Inseung's question (the son of who is dictating this message now.)
(a) Q:
How difference is it in Heaven between those faces of Misses Korea and those
homely faces?
A: Those
pretty faces on Earth are still pretty in here. However, those homely faces,
because the beautiful heart is expressed on their faces in the light of God, are
endlessly (like on earth) beautiful. It is beyond comparison between those
pretty faces in Hell and those homely faces in Heaven. Though the faces would
not change based on the faces on earth (round face is round and long face is
long too), since the faces would change based on how we lead our lives on earth,
those who are trying to come to Heaven with their hearts and characters
cultivated are wise persons.
(b) Q:
How different between those who are courageous and who are coward?
A:
Courageousness and cowardice is not that important to God. Try your best on
earth to come to the Heaven since the desire for Heaven does not come from
courageousness, nor are people ignored because of being coward.
(3)
Reporter (Y.S. Kim)'s question
Q: Are
you reading from your note or just saying as you think?
A: It is
very complicated and hard to explain all. Whenever I think, it just appear to me
as recorded. It can be said that your thoughts are automatically recorded.
Mrs.
Kim! The weird thought that those who are living in Heaven come to those on
earth ., Mrs.! since you have experiences with My wife (Hansook Kim), please do
not worry. If I describe the scene here for a moment, the present time is very
precious where lots of people who got orders from God are praying and are about
to begin. Now, let's begin.
Love, as
the letter can explain in itself, is the state of mind where you are doing with
all your heart sincerely and devotedly for others. In love, there are physical
love, spiritual love and religious agape love.
1)
Physical Love
Physical
love is the love where men and women are connected physically. On earth, we can
feel emotions when bodies can meet and love. But, it would be hard to understand
that in Heaven, those two man and woman without body can love. Those physical
love between those of high classes (those who are close to God) is like a
beautiful picture. Since the bodies of the two become one totally when they
love, they can feel stronger emotion though body and mind, which is beyond the
feeling of love they can feel on Earth. It is like creating existence from the
state of complete absence of ego, that is the kind of feeling you can feel when
you are in a magic world. Also, you can actually see the scene of making love
with your own eyes.
The
couples on Earth make love in their bedroom most of the time. Here, in Heaven,
absolutely not. It is not the hidden love which only you can do in your bedroom.
In Heaven, You can love among flowers in a wild field, on beautiful land, and on
the wave. Even you can love in the mountain where birds are singing and the
scene is so beautiful that those who see them become intoxicated.
Rather
than feeling shame or disgrace like you felt on earth, you can behold the scene
with peaceful mind, feeling beautiful. If I describe one scene in Hell, that is
just the opposite. They love hiding, and those who see the scene curse them.
They pointed their fingers at them saying they are ugly. Those love scenes in
Hell are very similar to those on Earth.
2)
Spiritual Love
Since
the spiritual love does not have body, it looked like it is not really related
to those live on Earth, yet, it is the absolutely needed love to those live on
Earth. Either you have body or not, since everybody has his or her won inner
self, if you do not cultivate your inner self well, you are going to run into
lots of problems in making a complete love (Becoming one between husband and
wife) in Heaven. For example, suppose there is one couple where husband's inner
self is well cultivated while the inner self of wife is not, then there will not
be complete love in this family. Then what happen? They cannot make a elegant
and beautiful love, yet since they have a desire to love, they make love with
physical manifestation ( they can feel in Heaven).
Therefore,
they only can have limited love with limited places, like bedroom. Then how
these couples can make a complete love? When the husband's heart to respect wife
and wife's heart to love her husband become one, their love can become maturated
to a complete love. Since this is not happening in a short time in Heaven, when
you are on Earth, when you have your own body, you have to try to cultivate to
bear a fruit of complete love. In conclusion, the short life on Earth should be
blessed for the complete love which will be stored in eternal storage. Also,
those couples should bear a fruit of complete love by cultivating each other to
accomplish a complete love.
3) Agape
Love due to Religion
Like the
unconditional love Parents have toward their children, when God created us,
human, God bestowed us with endless elements. This is Agape Love. However, due
to the Human Fall and the changes over the ages, the original standard of love
God gave to us has been deteriorating, therefore, many times because of the
existence of the Hell, God and human had to keep pains in their hearts.
Therefore, by acknowledging the worth of fundamental love, the Hell can be
destroyed and the path to the Liberation of the Hell can be opened up.
Physical
Love, Spiritual Love can be assumed only between husband and wife. However, by
the destroy of this kind of relationship of love, Human became shaken from the
foundation. The endless element God wanted to bestow us is Love. This is the one
you want to give and give, and it becomes bigger and bigger even after you give.
However, since the foundation was destroyed, today, the road to salvation became
difficult. By establishing the correct sense of husband and wife, we must love,
make a conciliatory attitude and trust each other. Sometimes, forgive and
reconcile with each other. Therefore, becoming one with the love God bestowed
us, the road to liberation of all Human will be opening up, the Hell in the
eternal world will disappear.
Accordingly,
if we trust and love each other, there will not be so called Hell nor War to
mankind. Because we lead our lives without knowing this principle well, the
Heavenly world became this complicated and the hellish groaning punishment came
into being. We have to cultivate and keep the love between husband and wife and
the fundamental inborn love God bestowed to us.
1)
Spirit selves' help for persons on earth
The
spirit selves in the Spirit World cannot improve themselves from their position
without cooperation of the person on Earth. That is, the spirit selves are to
live forever in the Spirit World with the basis of life on Earth. Therefore, if
the spirit selves cannot rid themselves of the sins committed, they are destined
to live, receiving punishment for the sins committed, forever.
For
example, when he who murdered a person came to the Spirit World, the horrible
(cruel) punishment will be with him forever. That is, he who killed a man with a
knife, his spirit self would be stabbed with knife, he who shot a man to death,
his spirit self will have a bullet stuck in his heart. Also, he who beat a man
to death with a stone, his spirit self has to live with his eyes pulled out,
being bloody bruised. He who killed a person kicking and stepping on with feet,
his spirit self will stay prostrated with his face down being stepped on with
his own feet. He who killed a person with poison, his spirit self will be
collapsed spitting blood, and he who killed a man with an ax or an sickle, the
instrument will be stuck in the chest of the spirit self.
Among
those spirit selves, some are trying to hide their lives on earth, yet it cannot
be hidden despite their efforts. Also, those spirit selves are trying to
liquidate the past lives on Earth, yet it cannot be done either as they wish.
Myriad of spirit selves are trying hard to lead a better life than their current
situations, again, it cannot be accomplished either as they wish.
Those
spirit selves miss the lives on Earth and are willing to do any odd and peculiar
things to rid themselves of their sins. However, the recorded once entered
cannot be erased. It is common for all spirit selves that they wish to hide and
erase the lives on Earth (the sinful behaviors), and feel shameful of those
lives being shown to others, yet it seems more tragic since their efforts to
hide and erase are also shown to others so vividly.
2) How
do spirit selves help persons on earth?
In order
for the spirit selves to be liberated from their positions, they cannot avoid
the pain and sufferings without the help of the people on Earth. Also, since
they cannot rid themselves of the sins they committed, the spirit selves go to
the place (they lived on Earth) definitely. They go to their own blood and flesh
or someone related somehow and keep sending signals. However, because those who
live on Earth are not aware of it, unusual disasters happen, such as a sick
person at home, financial difficulties, or auto accidents. Finally, when the
descendent can find out the reasons, therefore pray and donate for that spirit
self, then the spirit self can be promoted to a little bit better position from
his current position in recognition of his descendant's services.
However,
if they do not know the reason, then there will be continuous accidents and
mishaps, people die, again another accident. As a result, there will be more
troubled ancestors. Therefore, if the family, though cannot find any problems in
their faith, yet have continuous accidents big or small, it can be concluded
that this family has ancestors who have complicated problems, therefore the
fastest way to solve these problems is to resolve the issues through pray, with
faith.
Now, the
fortune-teller whose spiritual level is rather low can solve the issue, yet
those spirit selves can be only consoled temporarily, however, still, their
sufferings and pains cannot be solved completely. This is the big difference
between those who know God and those who do not. ( the spirit selves can stay
quite for a while, yet, as the time goes, they will be the same). The spirit
selves do not have any solutions from where they are placed despite their
struggling and wiggling at their position, the severer those spirit selves'
lives become, the lives of their descendent on Earth become difficult and
complicated. The spirit selves in the Spirit World, in order to receive the
cooperation from those on Earth, come to their descendent mobilizing all sorts
of methods. However, because the descendent do not know the method to solve the
problem, a family fortune is on the wane and their painful lives repeat
themselves.
Since
those spirit selves who promoted to better position from their current position
with the help of the people on Earth can lead more comfortable lives, the lives
of their descendent can be more peaceful.
3) The
relationship between spirit selves and persons on earth
Now,
let's examine the relationship between the people on Earth and the spirit self
in the Spirit World. The relationship between those two can be compared with the
one with needle and thread. That is, the relationship between the people on
Earth and the spirit self in the Spirit World is like the relationship between
the body and spirit. Also the relationship between the two are like the one with
husband and wife which cannot be separated, therefore become oneness. Therefore,
it is without a saying that when the person on Earth should lead a good life
when they have body. However, it is when they no longer have body, that is, when
they already become spirit selves, they come to a realization that they did not
lead a good life. I would like to conclude that when you live on Earth with your
body, you have to prepare for the eternal life, summarize your life, and lead
everyday life sincerely and faithfully.
What and
how can the descendent do for the sake of those spirit selves who already lost
their bodies? Their position can be comfortable when the descendent on Earth
pray for them. Today, the order that our True Parents bestowed us with the right
to become a Tribal Messiah is, an immensely special grant. It is a great grant
that I can save our ancestor through pray with my name. Therefore, because my
life on Earth can be comfortable by praying for our ancestor, therefore having
them stay in comfortable places, it is so natural that I myself should save my
ancestors. Keeping in mind that this is the path I can be of little help for our
True Parents, by lightening the pains of our True Parents in the Spirit World,
we have to finish our lives on Earth well when we have our own bodies. It is so
natural that we have to complete our duties as a Tribal Messiah for our
ancestors' savor, it also can become the path to a special grant for those
spirit selves who observed these.
"In
the relationship between the person on Earth and the Spirit Self on the Spirit
World, do those spirit selves who are placed in good position without any
difficulties still need cooperation, favor, or pray from the person on
Earth?" Reporter asked. And his answer is as follows, "Since a human
is composed of spirit and body, a dual structure, the principle is that those
who lost their bodies should live in the Spirit World and those who have body is
supposed to live on Earth. Then, it should be assumed that there must be reasons
the spirit selves send signals to the person on Earth. Because of the tie of the
blood lineage, they are sending signals sometimes on good things or sometimes on
bad things. The person on Earth should be able to discriminate these based on
the Law of Principle and the Spirit Self should not confuse the person on Earth.
Many times, since God does not intervene in the matter of blood lineage, we,
human, should reborn with the spirit of God, in order to have the truthful
lives."
4)
Common point of spirit selves and persons on earth
Since
the person on Earth have body, there are times when they cannot do at their
conveniences. The spirit selves, though do not have body, are free to move
within their position (though different based on their position). The person on
Earth, though have body, lead a limited life in everywhere. However, the spirit
selves, though without body, can lead an active life in the eternal world. Also,
the person on Earth, though have body, cannot have eternal place. The spirit
selves, though do not have body, can have eternal place. If I list the
differences between those two, it will be endless.
Now,
let's examine the common points. Both lives on Earth and in the Spirit World
only have half side, therefore accomplish only half. Then, how can the
successful resolution of body and mind lead to the bearing of complete fruit?
Before the body and spirit is separated on Earth, they have to finish their
lives on Earth, then they can be a complete fruit. However, when the spirit come
to the Spirit World with their spirits not fully ripen, there arise problems.
Therefore, to solve the problems, the relationship between the ancestors and the
descendent becomes complicated. Now, again, we have to keep it in mind that how
important the lived on Earth is. In order to live forever in the beautiful house
God prepared for us, we should not live for the half life as our goal. I hope
your life on Earth is the one where it can bear a complete fruit of spirit and
body, therefore greet the harvest season with joy.
While
recording the message, the reporter showed some doubts about Dr. Sang Hun Lee.
Then he said, "Please let's stop writing the phrase of I am Sang Hun Lee
who wrote the Unification Ideology."
1) I,
Sang Hun Lee, came to the Spirit World from Earth, yet I do not have any other
interest than to graft the ideology of True Parents on another. Because, I came
to realize that there are no higher ideology than the one of True Parents to
that extent.
2) Those
who have love and those who do not (true love and false love)
Love is
one precious element Human received from God when they are born. However, the
heartbreaking situation is that this Love is the one which made human serve two
owners from the birth. This is the beginning of our misfortune. Human can not
live only with the physical love between husband and wife. Among the original
personality, there is precious personality he was born with. That is Love. Due
to the Human Fall, Human lost the essence of Love. It is like applying new paint
on the surface of fallen and ugly love, therefore be turned into an artificial
love. Love is located on the yolk of an egg among the God's nature. We cannot
analyze nor disclose this God's love. Now, I am going to record these
fundamental love in this Spirit World.
3) God's
Love
God's
love cannot be touched nor expressed. We neither can verify God's love with our
own eyes. It is because God's love is hard to understand to us, as a human.
Also, God's love cannot be analyzed with our human brains.
God's
love, though given to us endlessly, the place is still the same, not dwindled.
It is like when you leave a tap open, the water just dash over the ground,
likewise, God's love keep springing forth continuously. God's love, though we
receive and receive, no one does not like it nor can have a full stomach with
love. On the contrary, they become humble like those who are hungry (modesty).
Though God's love cannot be measured by weight or bulk, it is turned into a
infinite valuable appearance to us.
I would
like to say about God's love as follows. Suppose that the whole world receive
God's love altogether and return all the love to God, still the God's love is
bigger in size. Then how is the standard of God's love, the love toward human,
be expressed? God cannot be seen nor touched. God is neither limited material
which can be skin rubbed, nor is some solid mass. Then, how can human express
God's love and with what can human be realized?
I am
going to analyze "God who loves Sang Hun Lee." Let's do it. God calls
me "Sang Hun" I hear the voices clearly with my own ear. Then, the
brilliant and bright glittering radiate and reflect light at front, back, and
above my head. And, among the light, a streak of light, unidentified, capture my
heart, yet it was beyond description. I, with my ability, could not find the
right verb to describe it. If the similar description would be like, a baby, the
peacefulness of being held in mother's chest meets the eyes of mother while
listening to the heart beat of mother. Though this description cannot be fully
compared to the experiences, yet to me, this comparison is the only way.
Also, as
God's calling voice changes, the brightness of the beautiful light changes, then
I just get into an ecstatic state, like my whole body seems to be melting down.
Then, suddenly, I am standing by myself. Because, suddenly, I cannot see God.
How does such an enrapturing light come visit a human being instantaneously and
continuously? God's love coming out as light feels different from moment to
moment. Brilliant lights, which are big, small and round shaped fires as shown
in a fireworks display, come out as light of love to human beings with various
types of splendors. According to the shape of radiating light, the
sentimentality we can feel from the light is different. Besides the love I
experiences, I also saw the God's love shown to other persons, and still, God is
the essence of love.
4) The
Image of God is fire and light.
Based on
what can we tell that light is the shape of love. Because the image of God is
fire and light, the elements of love in human mind interact immediately when
they see God's light. Like the light is on when we press the switch, when you
see the God's light, love can start operating and turn your heart into a Love
itself.
5) The
reason for the gateway of Blessing to be wide opened.
God's
original will for Human is for them to stay as they are originally created.
However, due to the Human Fall, the descendent could not be born with the
natural love. Since human with dual structure, that is, since human were born
with a heart of two different directions, the wrongly structured human from the
beginning made God heartbroken.
Therefore,
in order to solve the human problems who has a heart of two directions, who was
fallen off from the Original Restoration and from the God's authority, mentioned
in the history of Restoration, we have to go through the course of rebirth, by
being born again. Therefore, by being born again without original sin, then we
can take after the essence of Love God originally wished, then we can experience
the complete love of God.
That is
why we have to be reborn through True Parents, in order to proceed the course of
rebirth. This is Blessing. That explains why, recently, True Parents widened the
gateway for the Blessing, therefore grant big favors. Though they do not
understand by themselves, once they receive the big favors through the course of
Blessing, they become the people of the Blessed. In addition to that, while True
Parents are alive, they grant a way to special favors to myriad of people
endlessly, those who receive the special favors are the Heavenly people, and
since they are the ones who go through the course of rebirth, these are the
period when their descendent (ancestors) receive fortune and blessings without
any reasons.
6) Love
is God's biggest gift
Love is
the most essential yolk of an egg from God's image human received from God when
they are born. Human should inherit love as it is. However, since it went wrong,
the relationship with God was disconnected. To reestablish this relationship,
human should resemble God. The best way to resemble god is to go back to the
original image of love as sons and daughters. Love, Love, Love, it is the
fundamental power with which we can overcome and melt down every difficulties,
therefore accomplish everything. Love is the biggest gift we received from God
and a sealed proof as his children. Love! We have to strive and exert ourselves
to find the love we lost.
1)
Subject: (The time is short, but I have a lot to say)
Force or
energy is generated when a subject and an object interacts with each other with
a desire to give love and receive beauty during the earthly life of human
beings. This is called universal prime force in the Divine Principle. The Force
that is reciprocated between a subject and an object is called universal prime
force and God is the subject of the origin of the universal prime force. The
force endowed by God operates as the fundamental force that is used for a
subject to give force to its object or for an object to return force to its
subject. Further, it does not work alone, but is originated from God, by which
we sustain our life and continue to exist.
Therefore,
all of the fundamental force of the world exists with the force of action that
forms a reciprocal relationship between a subject and an object. There is
nothing that can independently exist by itself. Existence itself can be possible
only through the force generated from give and take actions between a subject
and an object. Therefore, whether in the spirit world or on earth, the force of
all existing beings is manifested in the process of reciprocal relationship
between a subject and an object.
At this
point, I would like to write down the actions of a subject and an object that I
witnessed in the spirit world; In the spirit world, when God who is in the
position of subject force, gives us, spirit selves (bodies: literal human
beings), in the position of an object, His force/energy is immediately reflected
in all of us, spirit selves (bodies literal), becoming one like a shadow.
For
example, if God calls my name, "Sang Hun!" in a non verbal way, I, His
object, with an original mind, am automatically drawn to His order. I would not
question Him or express my own views such as: God, what is it? I do not know. I
do not understand, etc., but I would be automatically drawn to Him. This can be
compared to a northern magnetic force that is drawn to a southern magnetic
force.
Therefore,
in front of God, human beings or spirits (knowledge) are attracted to God like a
shadow in the relationship of a subject or an object. This is (from) the
original reciprocal principle, that is the fundamental force.
Which is
stronger between the force that a subject gives to an object and the force that
an object returns to a subject is not a question. The important question is how
they can have give and take at the same level of force between each other. If
Human beings are given the universal prime force by God, we are to live
according to the original will of God at the time of His creation. Therefor, the
fundamental force of the universal prime force can have smooth give and take
actions only when a subject and an object establishes a reciprocal base
(standard: literal).
For
example, when a couple (a subject and an object), an animal (male and female),
and a plant (stamen and pistil), etc. form a reciprocal base (standard:
literal), the force of multiplication comes into being, but if there is a
conflict or a friction at this point, an action of force does not take place.
Therefore, since God is the original subject (standard: literal) of the
fundamental force that is required for us, human beings to exist, if we have an
attitude through which we live, attending God in our mind, we can immediately
receive the force of the subject and reflect the same force as an object.
2)
Object
The
force of an object should take place like a beam generator, immediately
returning force at the same time of receiving the fundamental force. This means
that when a subject appears as the subject of fundamental force that is received
from God, its object can also receive the same force. Therefore, a subject and
an object should not be in the position of relating to each other independently,
in the rule in which someone must give first and the other next in an orderly
manner, but should have a reciprocal relationship on the same level. Its
reciprocal standard cannot dispute over whose position or level is high or low.
For
instance, a conflict that arises out of disunity of a husband and a wife who
cannot become one as a subject and an object is not a fundamental force
originated from God. Since this is from the fallen nature, it can be compared to
a case in which both a subject and an object derailed from the (right) track,
losing the original force from God, and deviating from the realm of God's
dominion. Accordingly, since an object is reflected by the action of its
subject's original/fundamental force, it should not deviate from the original
force that strives to respond/return to its subject in the position of an
object. If an object deviates from receiving force from its subject, an object
should strive to have the force of an object establish a reciprocal circuit.
Let me
give you another example: In terms of relationship between a husband and a wife,
a husband is in the position of a subject. Yet if something goes wrong with the
husband, the wife comes in the position of a subject, in which case since the
original position is reversed, until the husband returns to his original
position, it takes time. However, only when an object does not deviate from her
position, both the subject and the object will stand in a right position.
3) Main
Topic
When a
subject and an object have a good reciprocal relationship, the force of original
value can be manifested. However, if something goes wrong with one party, and
thus their position is reversed, until the one party returns to the original
state, the other remaining party should keep his or her position. Otherwise, the
fundamental force given by God will leave them or be lost.
Therefore,
in order for a subject and an object to have proper give and take actions, they
should serve and attend God, the original source of the force. Since all beings
sustain their lives by the force generated between a subject and an object,
unless they become one, both of them will walk a path of destruction and death.
Both
subject and object must make effort to become one. Always examining themselves
as to whether they may love the original force or be accustomed to the fallen
nature, as if they are crossing a bridge made out of stone, they should take
each step with care toward the world of eternity. Then they will be able to lead
a life of wisdom.
4) There
Are No Exceptions to Spiritual Laws.
Many
people understand that the fundamental force of God is from the universal prime
force. Yet people do not think about how they can possess the force themselves.
During their earthly life, they should realize the value of the original force.
The rays of the original force can be reflected only when it is on the original
rail, not off the rail. And even when you are on the rail, you should watch not
to be derailed. In the spirit world, no exceptions nor forgiveness are applied.
On
earth, we can be forgiven based on the circumstances or heartistic relations,
but in spirit world, even in case of parent child relationship, it is not
acceptable. It is not so because the spiritual laws are fussy, but everything is
done in accordance with the principle. You might wonder why God of love cannot
be more understanding, but because He is the subject of the original love, if He
allows exceptions, the fundamental order will be destroyed. In other words, He
cannot accept them in order to keep a right order in the world of eternity. In
other words, because He loves us, He cannot forgive us. Therefore, we should
live each moment fully for the life of eternity. The reason why I (Sang Hun Lee)
am saying this is to fulfill my obligation of helping True Parents as Their son
when They would reorganize the spirit world. If we are truly Their children,
should we not live a life of filial piety, helping our Parents when They are in
difficulties?
* Since what is seen in the spirit world is so clear, Dr. Sang Hun Lee seems to be emphasizing his views, after analyzing his observations and experiences. (Reporter: Y. S. Kim)
(Completion
Of Conjugal Relationship) July 28, 1997
1)
Three-Object-Purpose
The
three object purpose is God's precious blessing and gift to humans that is given
to them at the time of His creation of them. This principle came into being as a
condition for humans to come before God. However, due to the fall, the principle
of love and beauty that should have been reciprocated between humans and a
husband and a wife was invaded. In order to restore this to the original state
centered on God, the three-object-purpose that wrong from the time of Adam and
Eve should be corrected.
Especially,
centered on God, Adam and Eve should have had a reciprocal relationship of love
and beauty, but because their relationship was centered on Satan, the circuit of
the original reciprocal relationship was destroyed. Therefore, God desires to
build the ideal of the Kingdom of Heaven based on love, by restoring humans to
the original standard of three-object-purpose value.
2) The
Completion Of A Couple
One of
God's blessings to us humans is a multiplication of children. This is Agape-type
love that gives and give without any conditions attached to it. Such type of
love is not often experienced in our life. However, like a spring water that
never dries, the love of God who desires to infinitely give as the king of love
never dries.
Likewise,
as a husband and a wife, we should also resemble God's love and become one with
His love that constantly desires to give and give, when love and beauty will be
returned to God as a precious offering. How many couples exist on earth today,
actually practicing and living God's love according to His desire?
The
Kingdom of Heaven in spirit world is a beautiful place where a couple lives,
returning love and beauty to God, reaching the standard of the
three-object-purpose. Therefore, there can be no deceptions or falsities in such
couple's love. Since the conjugal love is given and returned centered on God, it
should have the standard of supreme value. Further, during the earthly life, a
couple should live a life that is totally united with God's true love which
fulfills the three-object-purpose. Otherwise, even if we go to spirit world, we
cannot possess love of the Kingdom of Heaven.
1)
Fallen Nature Is...
Fallen
nature refers to a mentality that is derailed from the original track of the
principle that God originally desired. Then, how can humans return to the
original track of the principle, overcoming (removing: literal) the fallen
nature? The reason why God loves us without any reasons or conditions is simply
because we are His children. Humans who are derailed from the original track
should return to the original position, God's children. However, in order to do
this, it is impossible without making a proper condition. Then, what is that
condition? When humans created as the children of God fell, by being derailed
from the original track, they came to serve another master, resulting themselves
to attend two masters. However, they should clearly realize that God is the true
master. That is, only when they return to God after cleaning up their position
of dealing with two masters, they can be fully/completely restored.
2)
Rebirth
A
complete restoration is easy. In humans who deviated from the original track of
the principle, leaving their original position of being children to God, fallen
blood is flowing. Therefore, fallen activities should be stopped. However, in
order to be reborn, they should understand the process of rebirth. If explaining
this more in detail, our defiled lineage should be completely sanctified, and we
should inherit the love of God, which is called rebirth. In order to be reborn,
our body needs to go back to the womb from which we came.
This may
sound like a fantasy, but the principle teaches us that we can go back to God
(which is a rebirth), by making an indemnity condition of small value. However,
for this, we need a mediator. The mediator is True Parents. Humans cannot go to
God without True Parents since the original since (fallen nature: literal) can
be removed only through True Parents, and only through Them, fallen humans can
come forward to God as His original children with God like value.
Therefore,
since we inherited (the original sin with) fallen nature from Satan, we should
be separated from it. It is wrong to think that we can do it on our own.
Separation from the original sin (of fallen nature: literal) is possible when we
realize the value of the blessing given by True Parents. From this perspective,
we can learn that the blessing contains many meanings. Further, after coming to
spirit world, I realized the amazing value and greatness of our True Parents
even more deeply
1) What
Is The Four Position Foundation?
The Four
Position Foundation means a foundation where a subject and an object are united
and multiply their children centering on God. Human beings who are created as
children of God based upon His purpose of creation and who are supposed to
follow His ideal of 'subject and object' should grow up within the sphere of
God's love and fulfill the ideal of creation God originally intended.
However,
Satan became the dominator of this world. So, the ideal world can be built when
the world under the Satan's dominion is restored and completely turns into under
the dominion of God. God has been looking for the human beings to build Heaven
on earth through His providence of restoration. Therefore, when the people on
earth come back to God's bosom, the eternal 'Kingdom of Heaven' in spiritual
world centering on God will be built.
2) True
Parents of Heaven and Earth
The
ideal world God wanted to build became evil world due to the human fall, and the
process of 'history of restoration' got entangled. The history of restoration is
supposed to untie knots of resentments and sorrows in history one by one, and by
doing so, the world should be under the dominion of God. A master who should end
this providence of restoration should come to this world, and from then, it can
be started to build Heaven. The one is True Parent.
The
'History of Salvation' for humankind initiated by True Parents has greatly
contributed to the development of human history. Through this fundamental
providence, a eternal ideal world can be settled down here (spiritual world).
Since True Parents who are now in physical world are True Parents not only for
physical world but also for spiritual world, they are the masters of eternal
Sabbath of spiritual world and they are the masters of the ideal Kingdom of
Heaven. Therefore, spirit men in all different levels have lived with the hope
of the day when True Parents come to the spiritual world and build the ideal
world. The spirit men in high level know the coming world of hope, but spirit
men in low level don't know how such a scary world of punishment will change.
For them, there is no hope and no waiting. There is only continuous pain and
suffering.
Therefore,
if there are many earthly men going to hell, the spiritual world will be
complicate, and the True Parents have to put more efforts and their suffering
will be longer after they come to spiritual world. Even if the external blessing
looks like given freely, the destiny of earthly men bounded to go to hell will
change. So, let's become a pioneer who build the eternal world. That's the way
to fulfill our filial piety. Therefore, completion of the 'Four Position
Foundation' is the completion of the Kingdom of Heaven. The completion of the
ideal Kingdom of Heaven is to show our filial devotion to True Parents.
1)
Heaven
Heaven
is the place where people who received recognition as God's children gather.
They are the owners of Heaven. Ideal Heaven is realized by those who live for
the sake of others, not thinking or behaving for themselves. What is the proper
behavior in Heaven? In Heaven, people's behavior is motivated by their humble
attitude not by someone else.
Is there
a fence in Heaven? It is not a place where someone asks you to come or go out.
It is not the place where someone makes an order. Rather, it is the place where
people act by knowing and feeling God's breathing. There is no class in Heaven.
There is no such level that someone is higher or lower than others. This place
doesn't care about people's social position. The one at the highest position and
the one at the lowest position are united into one with their loving each other.
In Heaven, there is no such a gruesome scene of earth where the lower washes his
hands in invisible soap in front of the higher. Therefore, the one who
accomplishes the ideal of Kingdom of Heaven is the one who knows God's ideal and
the one realizes God's fundamental will and lives following it. Also, the laws
of spiritual world is very strict. Examination is strict like computer. The
earthly men should try to live looking forward to living in the ideal of Kingdom
of Heaven.
2) The
Principle of Relativity and Ideal Kingdom of Heaven.
The
principle of relativity can be explained through the principle of 'give and take
action'. The meaning of the 'give and take action' is not only to give and take
well. They also should know whom the action is centered on. A subject and an
object shouldn't pursue their own ideals centering on themselves. They should
realize that it is the right guide to ideal of heaven toward God when they live
in the direction of which a owner of the such a fundamental power pursues
through the circuit of 'give and take action'.
The
subjective force in the principle of relativity is generated when it is for the
sake of its object, and the objective power is generated when it is for the sake
of its subject. These forces are the fundamental forces of the principle of
relativity, which direct the forces to be forwarded to God. I'd like to say
realization of heaven is the main issue of the 'principle of relativity'.
3)
Gateways to Heaven
There
are many gateways until you enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Heaven is the garage
where you collect all your fruits of your life. Here, they measure the weight of
your bundle and see how much award you can get. In other words, they compare the
weights of the Good and Evil.
What was
your earthly life? 1) Was it for God? 2) Was it for yourself? 3) What were your
view of world and view of country? What did you leave on earth? These things are
taken into consideration. Other than the fact that there are so many such
examinations, they examine your life in full detail. It is like a water finally
coming to your dinner table after sterilizing and filtering so many times since
it is collected from a river.
It is
not done in the way that a guard asks you and takes you to a certain gates. I
myself, go to this gateway and that gateway like being attracted by a magnet,
and pass each of the them. The pain when you get to a certain gateway and you
are rejected because of your sins is beyond description. It is so shameful and
fearful.
There
are so many levels at each gateway. There are much more places than heaven,
paradise and hell as discussed on earth. Then how could we go to heaven safely
passing all gateways? If there are some gateways you cannot pass due to your
sins, you will spend a certain time of indemnity (based on the condition of
God's special blessing, achievements of your descendants, prayer, offering,
service, and so on.) Spirit men are waiting for True Parents to come to
spiritual world and to build new standard of passing of each gateway. I am
really worried that there will be more work for True Parents.
1)
Formation of Four Position Foundation and Dual Characteristics
Four
Position Foundation is the core of the divine principle, which says a couple
should be united centering on their love and multiply their children. However,
the formation of Four Position Foundation reviewed in spiritual world is much
more exciting and mysterious. Four Position Foundation means a husband and a
wife are united and multiply their children centering on God, but when they are
in love and united with each other, there is no distinction between a subject
and an object. They completely become one body. More than that, God's love
covers their love, so the only visible thing to us is resplendent light. The
beauty itself is the only thing that can be seen.
2) Ideal
of Unity in Love
Then how
does the children's love look like? The children's love become a unity just like
a couple' love does so. Being differently explained, it is the time when parents
and children are united into one with their love. In other easy words, they are
distinct three people, father, mother and a child, but they don't look
separately when they are united in love. The unity could be seen as father's
figure, mother's figure, or children's figure. However once they start to talk
to each other, they look different three people, again.
The
formation of 'Four Position Foundation' means that if we are united centering on
God, we will be one body with God. If so, it doesn't look like there are four
status of existence (including God) as it is seen on earth. Therefore, a couple
united with God live just like they are forming one body even though they are
two different people. This is how the spirit men at top level look like.
However, a subject and an object who are not united with each other don't look
embodied into one. God's resplendent light cannot be seen, either. The only
people who pass the all gateways to Heaven can achieve such unity. Therefore,
the basis of the Four Position of Foundation is that a dual characteristics
called a couple is embodied with their love for God. That is, the Four Position
Foundation is God's fundamental purpose, and it is the foundation of fundamental
power (love) for God where He can exist and operate the world with the power
(love).
Dual
Characteristics' means the figure of created world that resemble God's
characteristics. These characteristics are given by God. The fundamental force
of it is 'Universal Prime Energy' and 'Give and Take Action' is the action
between these two forces. Then what is the 'Principle of Relativity'? When a
subject and an object do 'give and take action', the force of 'Give and Take
Action' (Universal Prime Energy) makes them give and take with each other. In
other words, this force is like the one attracted by a magnet. Divine Principle
describes this the utmost fundamental energy as 'a subject consisting of the
dual characteristics, or universal prime energy or give and take action.
However, the origin is same. It can be simply said and understood if we say
'God's fundamental energy'.
The
fundamental force of seasons' change (spring, summer, fall and winter) is not
formed by human beings. Like this, the original force of all energy used by the
created world and human beings stems from only one force given by Him. We cannot
explain the fundamental force that is described in many ways in Divine
Principle. That is the energy of existence of the eternal God. That is the
energy of God, my Father, who is sole creator of humankind. God is the master of
the spiritual world, which is unlimitedly wide, which our reason cannot
understand, which we cannot see all with our visual sense, and which you cannot
grasp or explain. You cannot describe God no matter how you study Him. He is the
One who cannot be described nor explained with our senses or emotions.
I,
Sang-Hun Lee like logical reasoning and analysis, but God is the master of the
eternal light that cannot be divided nor analyzed. God is the One who runs the
providence and leads people profoundly with His resplendent light.
2) Oh!
My God
I
thought I could analyze God if I came to spiritual world. However after I came
to spiritual world, I am just full of admiration for its huge scale, and my
expectation to analyze the spiritual world sounds stupid. 'My God, pleas forgive
this son. You are the One cannot be compared with anything else in anywhere. The
value and existence of You is the one and only, Heavenly Father. There is no
other way to express my feeling other than 'Oh! My God, Oh! My God, Oh! My God,
Please forgive me'.
Therefore,
one who tries to analyze and study God is the most stupid person. The wisest man
only says 'My Heavenly Father' and thinks the fundamental source of all energy
is the expression of the Heavenly Father's prime energy, which is explained in
Divine Principle.
1) Human
Structure
In light
of human structure, a man isn't supposed to live individually. He/she is
supposed to live for the subjective/objective existence. When a subject and
object perform give and take actions well and become one, God can work on the
foundation and they become the ultimate object of joy of God. Most of people are
living with thinking that they simply live for themselves. However, living
individually does not agree with the original Will of God. For that reason, a
person pursue a single life is not filial child of God and is one of the people
who are ashamed in the spiritual world. If the human structure was to live
single, God's creation with highest intelligence would be called failure.
2) Life
for the Spouse
If a man
is the God's ultimate creation, the man should possess an element which God
desires. It is the heart with which a man can't help care for the spouse.
Therefore:
a)
Double structure of external appearance (needs the object)
b)
Internal character is formed with the heart of caring the object
Fore
example, it can be examined by the shapes of sexual organs (reproductive
organs). A man is supposed to live according to the direction (to live for
others) given by God. If a man goes against the direction, it will be a crime in
front of God and he will have no home in the spiritual world as a man is not
supposed to live on earth forever. He will be lost there. For that reason, a man
should appreciate the value of life given by God and live a life to serve God
and others.
1) Man
is the Center of Love
As a man
has double structure, he should be the center of love to be completed in front
of God. In other words, a man was created by God with highest intelligence not
like other creation. For that reason, a man should become more valuable
existence than other creation. Because of the fall, a man could not do that and
he must fulfill his responsibility as a true son with following the direction to
go back to the original position. What does it mean? The creation is simply made
by God. It's value is merely to offer its beauty and growth to God.
2) Man
is Medium of Love
God has
provided a value of love to a man, which other creation doesn't possess. The
love can't be generated by single existence. It's value can emerge when a
subject and object are united and become one. A man, which is a medium of love,
becomes the center of love and he leads God to the ultimate joy being qualified
to be a true son. For that reason, a man should be the medium of love to offer
the ultimate love to God and leads God to His joy. A man should reach the
standard of value that God provided. A man should do his best to live his life
in order to make God joyful. For that, a man should love with his object. They
should become one to be His children returning glory to God. It is the
perfection of a man.
1) True
Love
True
love is the original love which was lost in the garden of Eden and which we try
to find in order to live with God. It can be call true love only when it's
standard of value is centered on God. There is no true love without God. Because
Adam and Eve didn't offer the first fruit of love to God, God and men have lived
in sadness as parents and children. Because the first fruit of love is taken
away by Satan, God had to work in order to take back the first one again.
However, since countless seeds of sin are planted on the earth already, God is
working to collect the pure grain from the separation of empty heads of grain
after the harvest of fruit of sin.
In here,
God needs the strategy of bringing back the first fruit that was taken away by
Satan. This is the indemnity condition. Since True Parents came to the earth,
this formula has finally been solving. This is because the ultimate purpose of
God restoring the providence is to seek the lost children. Humankind must
realize the origin of True Love and return the True Love back to God. Only those
who have been selected through True Parents' standard of rebirth (Blessing) can
appear as True Children of God. For this reason, those who had not passed the
procedure of Blessing are not qualified to be the first fruit.
In order
to be guided to God by the original True Love, the couple who received the
Blessing from True Parents (in other words, the Blessed couple) must love each
other, multiply children and establish four position foundation. True Love is
the sight of a couple becoming one, the parents and children becoming through
loving each other centering on God.
2) The
appearance of the True Love is a luminary of the light
In the
spirit world, the appearance of the True Love radiates as a perfected appearance
(it is an incredible bright luster). The light of a luster at this time can be
seen as an appearance of children and can be seen as an appearance of parents.
The original luminary of the light is the true incarnation of True Love, and the
True Love that God has given to us. If a husband and a wife cannot become one,
and children cannot become one, the light of True Love cannot be radiated
completely. In general, we image the True Love as a love of agape that we give
and receive eternally. However, True Love is that established the four position
foundation of complete oneness centering on God.
Therefore,
those who have not reborn (who have not received the Blessing) cannot join the
line of True Love. Also, they are those who do not have ticket to come to the
Kingdom of Heaven (spirit world). Everyone must do ones best to participate in
the line of the Blessing.
1)
Original Love
God said
it is beautiful when watching Adam and Eve loving (including lovemaking) each
other. God was rejoiced even to the degree of feeling rapture. However, because
of the fall of mankind, God had lost such entire love. For this reason, mankind
has responsibility to console God's Han and return His rejoice. 'Original love'
was discuss in the section of 'True Love.' Therefore, I will categorize the
appearance of the Original Love. Those are:
a) Love
of a husband and a wife centering on God
b) Love
of children centering on God
c) True
Love centered on God is indeed the Original Love.
2)
Appearance of original couple standing in front of God
In what
appearance does a person who has established the original love meets God when
he/she comes to Kingdom of Heaven? He/she comes to this world (spirit world)
just as a bridegroom and a bride enter the wedding hall in beautiful dress on
earth. For the bridegroom and the bride whom God receives are extremely
beautiful, the scene makes us to fall into the image that an angel from Heaven
has descended to the earth. A good man and a good woman go forward to God and
offer a Kyung Bae while receiving resplendent light within beautiful melody.
Within
the bright radiant of light, a couple loves (including lovemaking) each other.
The appearance of a couple loving is just as the world of light becoming one and
is very bright. Within the light, God embraces and rejoices by radiating the
love in a stem of light. How can that be possible since the couple did not come
to the spirit world together? When a wife who came to the spirit world before
her bridegroom goes forward to God when she receives him. This is a description
of the time when Sang Heon Lee was going forward to God. This made me to think
that this was the original love of God that God wanted to establish at the
Garden of Eden.
1)
Foundation of Principle of Relativity
Original
Love is the love that God wanted to seek in the Garden of Eden. Then, in what
relationship does it have with the Principle of Relativity? The foundation of
principle of relativity is the giving and receiving for the sake of other
(object). What I want to say about the 'Principle of Relativity in the view of
Original Love' is the appearance of a good man and a good woman forwarding the
Ideal of Kingdom of Heaven.
2) Life
of Original Couple in the view of Principle of Relativity
What is
the life of original couple in the view of principle of relativity? For example,
let's say there is a couple eating together on a meal table. If there is a
specific food that a wife want to offer her husband, at the same time with her
thought, the food is put in front of her husband (this is just as a wife
prepares a meal table for her husband). When the subject (husband) express
gratitude to the object (wife), in the same moment the object recognizes the
thought of the subject and smiles.
However,
when I see the scene of people eating in Hell, they do not recognize each
other's thought. The scene is just as we can see easily in a physical labor area
and/or in a prison that they fight for more food because of their hunger.
In the
Kingdom of Heaven, couples do know each other's thought, word, and action by
simply looking at each other's eyes. Since they always know each other's heart
of wanting to give and the heart of willing to give (no one has such thought of
selfishness centering on 'I'), it looks exactly same as a magnet always follows
the compass.
Therefore,
they are always very humble to each other, they always express respect to each
other, and they live always showing warm and peaceful smile. The world of
original love is the world where couples live with the heart of willing to give
and receive centering on God and dance around within the rapturing light of God
just as the warm sun light in spring. Within the life of Couple's Love which you
are dreaming the ideal of the original love on earth, I want you to live the
life that you can be accepted by God.
1)
Mankind is the main role of entire world of creation
God, who
has created the creation of heaven and earth, has created the mankind as the
main role of the entire world of creation. However, because of the fall of
mankind, it seems that the value of all things and the mankind has reversed. For
this reason, mankind has lost the value of existence as the children of God. How
painful God feels that the world of creation that God built for the sake of His
children (mankind) grows and multiplies on its own, but the main role of the
creation of heaven and earth is not appearing? Mankind's task is that he must
correct the fallen position and go to God in his original track.
However,
the only way for mankind to appear as the owner in front of all things is by
standing on the standard of the value of Blessing (rebirth) through True
Parents. God originally blessed mankind to do everything that he desires in the
Garden of Eden was because God allowed the qualification of the manager for
entire world of creation. Through the rebirth, mankind will restore everything
as the main role of the Garden, and will receive the standard of value of the
manager of the universe.
Then, up
to where, does the standard of value of mankind reach? That is to obtain the
qualification as the children of God, and to obtain the qualification of the
owner of the entire world of creation. God created all things for the sake of
mankind. Therefore, God will rejoice only when mankind rejoices together with
God looking at the all things.
2)
Appearance of harmonizing mankind and all things
Don't
you think that the reciprocal relationship must be established between mankind
and all things since the object of joy of mankind is all things? Then, let's
give an example of an appearance of harmonizing between all things and mankind
who is the main role of the universe. When a couple become one and love
(including lovemaking), grass, flowers, and birds surrounded all harmonize.
Grass
radiates its beautiful colors. It swings light with an excitement.
Birds
get all gathered and sing with their own beautiful songs.
Passing
by breeze harmonizes with the silky soft touch.
All
these various scenery radiates in beautiful appearance. When a couple loves
(including lovemaking) within such atmosphere, God answers with a stem of bright
ray. Sometimes we see a scene in a movie that a queen of a castle wearing soft
and beautiful clothes makes love and a beautiful music of harp is heard
throughout the scene. However, this cannot be compared with that.
Mankind
received abundant of treasure from God as a manager of all things. However,
because of the fall, he cannot feel or see them. Yet, if we reach the standard
of the value of a perfected man, we will restore every relationship. Therefore,
mankind must again realize the value as the original owner of entire universe
and return gratitude and glory to God.
1)
Mankind is God's children
God
created mankind as His children. However, God could not abandon the painful Shim
Jung toward the children when they do not return to God's bosom and wander
around in a distance. For this reason, there are times when God reverses the
management indirectly. By doing so, God has been consoled and patient through
watching all things. However, God feels joy when His children appear in front of
all things as the very main role. This is because all things desire mankind to
have dominion on them.
2) God's
joy and love
God
wants to bless a beautiful good man and a woman by saying that the world of
creation is all theirs when God sees the appearance of entire surrounding all
things harmonize while the couple appear in front of God and return joy and
glory to God. One stem of a brilliant light harmonizes with all things and
reconfirms that the main role of such beautiful world is the mankind. Then, God
blesses mankind that he can bring as much as he wants.
When a
good man and a good woman received such Blessing walk by, entire grass dances
with joy. Mankind feels God's love within the beautiful enraptured atmosphere
where birds rejoice with their own chirping sound, melody coming from the
breeze, and indescribable fragrance. Therefore, since the world of creation is
the description of God's devoting love that is given to us, we must joyfully
return our love toward God as a main role of the world of creation.
1)
Perfected man is the God's successor
When
mankind grows in right way and completely accepted by God as His children, he
becomes perfected children to God and is bequeathed everything. Thus, mankind
who is admitted as the manager of the world of creation can stand as the object
of eternal joy. Such mankind will have standard of Shim Jung that can recognize
God's thought through living and rejoicing with God, and he will have the
standard of the value of God.
2) One
who lives with God
For this
reason, indeed, mankind is to go to the position of standard of value of God,
and this God's last desire toward mankind. God wants mankind to be in the
perfected position where God can bless mankind with the word, 'These are all
yours. You have done everything.' Therefore, such position is the position where
we always live with God within God's radiation.
1)
Relationship between Cain and Abel
Already,
the origin of the principle of reciprocity was mentioned several times above. In
here, I will appeal how the relationship between Cain and Abel in the view of
principle of reciprocity is systemized in the spirit world. God was going to
give the exact same love toward Abel to Cain when Cain and Abel match the
reciprocal standard to each other by Cain appearing as a respecting person in
front of Abel and love Abel. However, rather than loving Abel, Cain was arrogant
by showing off of his qualification as an Elder Son. This made Abel's heart in
pain, and became the motivation to hate Cain. By doing so, Cain result a
sorrowful history within God's providence. God had to re-indemnify pieces of
history that left mistakes. In order to do so, God pulled mankind by making
mankind to set another condition that he can receive the messiah in the position
where God can say that mankind has no sin.
For this
reason, just as the principle of reciprocity mentions that the subject and
object become one with the love caused by the heart wanting to give to each
other, the original relationship of Cain and Abel will be the same if man did
not fall. Cain would not had the emotion that he hated Abel to the extreme that
he wanted to kill him. On the other hand, the power of respecting and helping
each other (wanting to sacrifice oneself for the sake of each other) must have
functioned stronger.
2) Cain
and Abel Relationship in Heaven
There
clearly exist the Cain and Abel relationship in Heaven also. There are various
people in Cain and Abel relationship, such as elder person, younger person,
upper level person, lower level person, one who receives more love nearby God,
one who receives less love of God, etc.
For
example, between the elder person and younger person, rather than the elder
person ignores and orders by screaming, he will ask 'what are you doing now?'
with such a warm heart. Then, the younger person will smile and respond 'what
shall I help you?' In such atmosphere, each other's heart come and go.
Also,
when a younger person has a question to ask to the elder person, he will ask 'I
am very curious about such context, could you help me to understand?' Then, the
elder person does not answer with such an attitude of authority and reputation,
but with the love of true elder brother, he answers.
If I add
more, God did not apply the principle of reciprocity between subject and object
of mankind, but to every creation, God gave the heart of love that wants to give
for the sake of each other. Since such relationship has broken, the Cain and
Abel relationship became in distanced. Because of the earth situation became
complicated, the situation of spirit world became more complicated.
The
ideal of Kingdom of Heaven must first established on earth, and on such
foundation, the spirit world becomes organized. I want you to live the life on
earth through reorganizing, rethinking, and reestablishing the origin of the
principle of reciprocity (living for the sake of object).
1) What
is Kingdom of Heaven?
In
simple word, the Kingdom of Heaven is the place where the gather of people with
no individualism or self-centered thought live. In other words, it can be
summarized as the world of 'living together,' 'glorifying together,' 'together'
where overwhelms the heart of willing to live for the sake of object, willing to
give endless.
2) What
is Hell?
Hell is
the place where the gather of people with attachment of 'I' individual, my
situation, and my possession. Hell is the world where mankind with such thought
goes.
3) World
of Eternity
In
general, most of people living on earth pursue the physical joy as their ideal
of life. This is the reason that the life of physical world who do not know God
can easily become the practice center for the Hell. World of eternity is an
unavoidable way for everyone. For this reason, comparing to the eternal world,
we must close our short life of physical world with daily examination. The law
of eternal world accepts no excuses just as the physical world. There is no
personal reason. This is the context that Lee Sang Heon truly wants to tell and
help the people in physical world, and this may be the best gift. All I want to
mention and mention again is 'for the eternity, do not live the moment foolish.'
This is the way of filial piety to True Parents. (This is because, organizing in
the spirit world is very complicate.)
The
Kingdom of Heaven is the fence that we all become one with each other's love
centering on God. In this world, every respect each other's personality, always
be humble, always be warm, always gives smile and live. Your height being tall
or short, your look being handsome or ugly, your position being president or
security, you being rich or poor, you being highly educated or never does not
matter at all. In this world, there is no difficulty, no envy, but exists only
eternal happiness.
Every
person is concerned about Paradise, where Jesus is staying. Then, how is Jesus
Christ doing? He is living like only one existing person in the cosmic world.
What does it mean? He feels very lonely. There are many Christians around Jesus
Christ. Some people are wearing Cross necklaces, and others are holding a
rosary. However, even though Christians serve Jesus as the highest goal of their
earthly lives, Jesus Christ feels lonely and shabby. What is the reason for
that? If Jesus is the highest Christ as Christians believe, why did he is stay
in the Paradise? Because in the spiritual world, Jesus is not considered as a
person who fulfilled his mission completely. So he is in the lonely and
miserable position.
Paradise
is not a totally happy place. Christians who are in the Paradise are begging for
Jesus to go forward to the door of the Kingdom of Heaven. "Oh Lord! Let's
go together with you!" They are begging like that. Whenever they do so,
Jesus feels pain in his heart. He answers saying, "I am not to stay here
with the qualification of Christ, but as God's son. I am happy and feel grateful
for this place.
Then,
when would Christians be able to move from the Paradise to the Kingdom of
heaven? Until when would Jesus have to stay in Paradise? He has to wait until
True Parents come and liberate. At that time, people of Paradise can receive
many advantage. Then, can't Jesus get God's full benefit in the Paradise? He
can't. I saw many times that Jesus was going together with God, but many
Christians did not know that. (This is a different place than the Kingdom of
God.)
The Holy
Mother Mary was a great woman who was respected as Jesus' mother. Even though
she is always with Jesus in the Paradise, I have never seen her walking proudly.
She is living with a guilty conscience because she did not fulfill her
responsibility for Jesus. Even though she is not a nun, she is living like a
nun. Therefore, the relationship between Jesus and his mother are in a very
difficult situation. However, they do not blame each other. Rather, they are
very careful of each other.
Joseph
is the husband of the Holy Mother Mary and lives in the same position as Mary,
but he is also living a very lonely life, separated from Mary. Even though they
were a couple on earth, now they are living like strangers and even do not meet
each other. Joseph is too embarrassed to meet Jesus; Holy Mother Mary also feels
sorrowful when meeting Jesus. Moreover, they seem to be afraid of what people
think of them. Joseph is repenting for his past earthly life and feels very
sorry for Jesus. Because most of people who are around them know the
relationship between Joseph and Mary, their lives are not free on earth as well
as in heaven. Therefore, Paradise is not a happy and joyful place, but it is the
place of wishing and hope.
Buddha
is the most famous and respected person to Buddhists. I am going to tell the
story of my meeting Buddha. He is spending his time with sitting at the foot of
a high mountain and deeply sighing. When I asked him why he was sighing and
worried, he answered that "You did not come here to meet me, but came to
analyze me. Since you are living in God's love, you may know every situation. In
spite of that, why do you ask me?" "Whenever it comes April 8, many
Buddhists celebrate a festival for my birthday, but I only want to hide. I feel
very sorry and repent that when I lived in the physical world, I did not teach
how to serve God. Because I lived without knowing God, my teaching seems to lead
many people into sinfulness. What can I do?" He says this with deep
sighing.
His face
does not seem to look bright and he likes to walk on the high mountain. He
dislikes meeting people and wants to go where no one is. He is always repenting
in his prayer and continues to offer full bows before God with his whole sincere
mind. Even though some believers around Buddha are following him, he does not
appear in the place where many people are gathered. Moreover, the place where
Buddha is living seems to be in the high level of the middle spiritual world.
I am
going to lecture Divine Principle and Unification Thought to Buddha,
continuously. His character is very mild and humble. He does not walk proudly
with an uplifted head, but dropping his head to 45 degrees. He always talks with
a benevolent face. When he was listening to the lecture, he continuously thanked
me for my lecture. When I ask him to promise to come for the next lecture, he
did not promise easily. After several silent moments, he made a facial
expression saying that "If you have time, please come and lecture." He
does not say unnecessary things. He was very humble and benevolent.
How does
Buddha meet God? Some Buddhists may believe that because he was the highest
religious founder on earth, he should be treated most highly. However, even
though it may be a very sorry story for Buddhists, he cannot meet God directly.
However, he can sometimes receive God's direction indirectly only through a
messenger. When he receives God's direction, as a servant does before king, he
gives a full bow before God and kneels down to receive that direction. He also
gives full bow again, before God's direction like reading a King's order.
Buddhists
sometimes can see such a scene, but they do not know what is going on. Moreover,
God's direction does not come often. The contents of God's direction seems that
God consoles Buddha. That is, it seems to console Buddha with its contents.
Since it will take a long time until he comes into the direct realm of God's
love. He needs to wait silently. It was very surprising that God is going
together with Jesus, but He is not with Buddha directly. Why is that so? Jesus
served God, but because Buddha served himself, he is a sinner who can never go
before God. However, God forgives him and consoled him.
Confucius
is the great King of Confucianism. He is on the same level as Buddha's which is
the highest level of the middle spiritual world. Even in the coldest winter, he
wears the oriental classical overcoat and hat, and has a deep meditation,
sitting on the snow for some time. Therefore, if I do not make an appointment
with him, it is not easy to meet him. When I greeted him saying that "I
came here to meet teacher Confucius," he responded that "Isn't it
rudeness if you come here without appointment?" I introduced myself to him.
When I was living in the physical world, I thought of your Confucianism as the
most valuable thought, and I wrote Unification Thought, and I lived a life with
having a new view of life through Rev. Moon's teaching. When I finished to
introducing myself, he said "How can you call your great teacher's name
directly? You should call his name respectably as letter "Moon",
letter "Sun", and letter "Myung". He taught me like that. He
also said that "Since your seat seems to be uncomfortable, please change to
this seat." His word and behavior were very courteous. So, it was not easy
to tell him my opinions.
Whenever
I visited him, he came out with wearing humble dress. He seems like a stone
Buddha. Since he did not speak quickly, it took time to listen to his words. His
facial expression did not change. He looked severe. He liked my the lecture of
Divine Principle and Unification Thought, and he gently asked me to come again.
However, he was worried that his request might be difficult for me, he glanced
at my facial expression. Since his character is very reticent, it is difficult
to know his inner situation.
I was
curious how God's love is delivered to the place where Confucius lives. In case
of Buddha, God's love was delivered through someone, but Confucius was different
from him. Confucius was called by God. When God said that you should teach God
through your thought, he gave a full bow before God. Because he gave full bow
very politely, it took quite a long time. Why does God treat them differently?
Buddha himself acted like God, but Confucius taught various requirements of
etiquette and norm. He did not act like God. There were many people around
Confucius who looked courteous, wearing traditional dress such as an
overcoat and hat. It was not easy to meet Confucius. When I went to meet him, I
had to pass through many doors like passing 12 gates.
Mohammed
is at a distance from God and the Holy Spirit. His living place is neither the
middle spiritual world nor Paradise, but is also not Hell. If it were in the
physical world, I can could name the place, but in the spiritual world, it is
difficult to express it. His place is located between the Paradise and the Hell.
In going to meet him, I met many difficulties. It was also difficult even to
find the way to go to him. This is because he dislikes to revealed himself to
other people. Therefore, the meeting place wasn't bright. I met him in a
slightly dark place, like basement.
He asked
why I wanted to meet him. After introducing myself, I said that "Since you
are the person whom many earthly people want to meet, I also came to see
you." After thinking for a while, he began to open his mouth to speak.
"When I lived in the physical world, many people did so, but after coming
to the spiritual world, this place seems to be excessive to me. I believe that
God sent me here to have me recognize my sin in the physical world. I feel very
sorry and repent that I made God suffer by my wrong thought. Because of God's
grace, even in this level, there is no the punishment, like Hell. I am very
grateful for God because this place is too good for me when compared with my
sin."
He
continuously said that "When I was staying in the physical world, I thought
that my thought was the best one, which could not be compared with any thought
regarding the theory of God. However, it was very big mistake and I feel very
shameful for that. I cannot lift up my head before God. However, since you came
here, please give me your deepest advice and thought." It was the fourth
time I met him.
The
reason why I met him many times is that I wanted to understand his thought
clearly. At the second meeting, I explained a part of the Unification Thought
and introduced True Father, and he accepted it positively. He had already known
True Father very well. He said that he was looking forward to seeing Rev. Moon
in the spiritual world. When I asked why he is waiting for True Father, he
explained that he already knows that True Father will establish the law of the
spiritual world and liberate that world. When I asked how he knew that, he said
that he attending many seminars which were held in the spiritual world.
Mohammed
was wearing the clothes that covered his whole body from the head to foot. He
seemed to have the character of religious founder, and his body looked
dignified. The place where Mohammed was staying seems to be located below middle
spiritual world. Most people there were wearing similar clothing, which we can
see in the Arab countries. People who are living in this Arab area try to escape
meeting people. If I tried to see them, they turned their faces. Even though I
asked the reason, they didn't answer me. I came to understand that because I am
living in the good place, they would want to hide their shabby and shameful
place.
Mohammed
seemed to glad to meet me, and at the same time, seems to feel shy. He always
met me bashfully. While my staying here, I have never seen God call Mohammed. I
didn't even see God send a messenger. Even though he recognized God's love and
felt sorry for God. On the other hand, I could not see that he gave a full bow
and devotion like Buddha and Confucius. However, I don't know if he is doing
that secretly. He doesn't seem to feel lonely like Buddha, and he also doesn't
seem to have meek face like Confucius. How did such great leader of Islam come
to such a low level of the spiritual world? I have thought deeply about that.
Humans
were created to pursue goodness, resembling God's love. However, Mohammed seemed
to try to pursue individual desire rather than following the goodness and love
through his autocratic authority. The mind with which we serve God should spring
from original nature automatically. The faith which came by forcible and cruel
methods is just formal faith. Moreover, such forcible methods oppress human's
original nature. That is far from God's idea. Therefore, they must stay in such
a level of the spiritual world.
Now,
Mohammed is looking forward to seeing God. His teaching about Allah should be
destroyed. It is a very difficult problem. Only when there is some cooperation
of earthly people and people in the spiritual world, can Mohammed go before God.
Therefore, when his followers on earth attend the blessing ceremony Mohammed
asks them to pray for his wrong teaching to be corrected. He would like that
very much.
(The
conversation between Mohammed and Y. S. Kim who is the reporter)
My name
is Mohammed. I know that you came here as the responsible person of this middle
area of East Asia. Even though you are a most precious person, I cannot treat
you well, I feel very sorry. I know how big a mistake I made. Even though
because of selfishness, it is very difficult to restore Moslem people, I wish
that they would be restored to God's love and True Parents' love. The reason why
I came here is because I have something which I want to ask to you. If you make
a 40 days prayer condition to restore the realm of the middle East Asia, I will
open the way to meet Islamic people. I can help you through the prayer
condition. If you do it, your precious family will stay here in safety. Thank
you very much. (He was thinking how to witness Islamic people in the middle East
Asia.)
Swedenborg
was the one whom I wanted to meet in my earthly life. In order to meet him, I
waited for God's will. How does God think of that? God said that even though
human ability is limited, the power of the Holy Spirit is infinite. Swedenborg
was the one who thought the power of God more preciously than human ability.
He is
staying in the good place which is close to the Paradise. Before I met him, I
looked around his surroundings. His disciple came out to meet me. He said
"My teacher welcomes you." He said that my teacher got a revelation
that God's messenger will visit today. So, now he is waiting for you. When I
entered the room, he greeted me with bright smile and face. It was very good
feeling.
When I
set silently to introduce myself, He said that "You are the one who
received God's love and special grace and had lived attending the precious
teacher. Therefore, can you give me a lecture of your teacher's thought?"
So, I briefly introduced Divine Principle and Unification Thought. He also asked
me to introduce True Father, who had given such precious teaching.
When I
responded, he already knew about True Father, "Your teacher is the one who
shines the light like Sun and Moon. Because you attended such teacher who cannot
be evaluated by human's thinking, I have to learn from you." He asked me
with a humble attitude. I promised him that we would have many chances to talk.
He has
very systematic and logical thoughts. However, I was wondering why this person
stays in Paradise although he experienced God's love and was serving God. He was
in the place which he can see God closely and was waiting for God's grace.
However,
because he lived, communicating with God for long time, even when he came to the
spiritual world, his spiritual eyes shone very brightly. People who are serving
for him also were the people who had bright faces and humble minds. However,
because they don't know True Parents' thought and blessing family, I came to
think that before True Father comes to this world, I would witness to them by
giving lectures as soon as possible.
This
person is the one who lived with seeing the high level spiritual world in the
physical world. I could compare Swedenborg and Sundassing. The place where
Sundassing is staying is located in the middle spiritual world which is lower
than Paradise. Before I met him, I saw various decorations which are spread over
his area. It was like before a female shaman dances. The surroundings of his
house were similar to the Buddhist style. When I entered his house to meet
Sundassing, a servant guided me, spreading salt before me. Sundassing did not
come out from his room and instead someone opened the door. When he saw me, he
said, "Why does such precious person visit here?" I introduced myself
in detail. I told him that I came in order to introduce Divine Principle,
Unification Thought, and True Parents. He said that "Thank you, but I don't
have any qualification and I have a guilty conscience." When I asked why
that is, he said that while he stayed in the physical world, he received not
only the Holy Spirit, but also spirit of other levels. He feels shameful before
God. He said that after making a sacrificial offering, he wanted to listen my
lecture.
He was
very humble and silent, but he spoke very clearly and logically. However, I
could not say that God would like the decoration around his house. I think that
when he receives the Divine Principle lectures, his ideas will be changed.
Even
though the spiritual world is very different according to its level, people who
are close to God are more comfortable, but people who do not know about God
often argue with one another and are in anguish. Although I wanted to restore
this area of spirit world, it seems not to be accomplished, even giving tens of
Divine Principle lectures. I feel very sorry for True Parents.
Many
people think Socrates when their thought is complicated and confused. Humans are
trying to seek God and their original nature from birth. Even before humans
recognize rationally the fact that they were created by God, they are in a
heartistic relationship with God, which is the relationship of father and son.
Therefore, the human original mind to pursue God is necessary to seek God.
However, if you are captured by your own thought, you will lose God. I think
that Socrates is such a person.
In order
to meet him, I made a lot of effort. It was not easy to meet him. The place
where he is staying is located in the lowest level of the middle spiritual
world. The reason why it was difficult to meet him is that he was not willing to
meet me. After I visited there three times, he admitted me with a dark and
gloomy facial expressions. The reason why he disliked me was because he didn't
want to meet people who have different thought from his own. He wanted to know
the fruit of his own thought only, and at first of he did not feel any need to
listen other thought. He was very arrogant. He did not even like to talk. He was
not willing to listen my lectures.
Even so,
I began to speak about Unification Thought, step by step. While I was giving a
lecture, he suddenly asked me "Who made this thought? Is it your thought?
If it is your thought, you seem to think about it a lot." Therefore, I
began to tell him about True Father. He did not know about True Father before.
After talking for a long time, it seemed that he opened his mind a bit. Through
him, I came to recognize that philosopher's thoughts can be obstacles before
God. Because he was filled with his own thought and logic, it seemed to take
long time to change his thinking.
When I
came again and asked if he wanted to listen my lecture, he said that "Even
though your lecture is not necessary for me, if you came with the mind to change
my thought, I can hardly welcome you."
When he
has a problem, he was not willing to meet other people until the problem was
solved. Therefore, his surroundings were dreary and at a distance from other
people. He did not have an interest in the harmony of nature, in which flowers
bloom and are wilted. He was not interested in the fact that a human's death and
life are derived from God's power and God's existence. Because of that, it took
a long time to remove his egotism. However, I did not give up a hope for him,
because our thought is on a higher level than any other thoughts. When the
reporter asked if he did not know True Father but know God well, he said that
"Even though he knows God, if he does not know True Father well, and he
don't want to know True Father because of his thought."
Adam,
the first human ancestor and the first grandfather, is a handsome looking man
with a warm personality, and always made us feel comfortable. I was curious on
what level of spirit world he was living. If I describe everything it will take
too much time, and I will be sorry for Mrs. Lee.
Adam
remained too distant from God to appear before Him. However, since his indemnity
period is finished, he is now living in a good part of spirit world, which is
close to God. Adam is always afraid of coming before God, being cautious.
Adam
says that his life in that realm of spirit world is a lot better than that of
the Garden of Eden. Things are abundant and he can meet with many people. When
he was living in the Garden of Eden, he was lonely and fearful to face God.
According to Adam, he did not know that he was supposed to make Eve happy. He
just thought that he was to stay with Eve in the Garden of Eden. In other words,
he was not mature enough to relate to Eve as a grown man. He was not old enough
to realize that Eve was to be his wife. When things went wrong with Eve, he
eventually realized it, but it was too late for him to do anything about it.
Since
Adam failed to fulfill his responsibility as the first human ancestor, he
suffered a lot, working hard for many thousands of years, and therefore, as a
sinner, he felt incredible guilt before God. Although he is now living near God,
he still is always cautious before Him.
It may
sounds harsh to say that Eve is the greatest sinner in human history, but it is
true that she committed truly a serious mistake. Eve is now living with Adam
near God. She is always warm looking and thoughtful but also quite stubborn. To
me, her face is not the most beautiful one, but she is very good looking.
Whenever I tried to speak to her, she turned her face away from me. When I had
another chance to see her, she again turned her face away from me or bent her
head down so that she would not have an eye contact with me. Therefore it took a
long time for me to have an opportunity to talk to her. As we were conversing
with each other, she discovered that I (Sang Hun Lee) was close to God, she
attempted to have an open and honest dialogue with me. She started by saying:
It
may not be necessary for me to talk about my past faults, but I would like to be
honest with you. Adam an I always lived close to each other, eating together,
sleeping together, etc. We were so young at that time and we did not know that
we should become husband and wife. Adam always liked to have fun, running here
and there. I also liked to play, but I preferred to stay in a quiet place,
spending time with the creation. Although Adam and I had time together, since we
were both busy playing separately, we did not have chances to express our love
for each other as a man and a woman. The being that actually opened my eyes to
the opposite sex was Lucifer.
Lucifer
was always with me. He was always kind and willing to teach me everything.
Sometime he would bring things that I would like to eat. In the meantime,
through Lucifer I developed a feeling towards the opposite sex. Lucifer also
came to fall in love with me. At the time my relationship with Lucifer came to
fruition, Adam began to notice it. But Adam did not interfere in our
relationship, nor did he express his love for me. He just left me alone. Then my
love for Lucifer became more passionate, and Lucifer led me well. I just could
not let go of Lucifer. This lasted for quite some time. Lucifer was scared and
so was I. Yet whenever Adam saw me, he ran away from me. After a while I came to
realize that my deeds were wrong. One day God struck us with a terrible
reproach. He said that we were no longer qualified to be with Him.
Then
I looked for Adam with a sincere heart. I desperately clung to him, appealing to
him to help me. Afterwards, as was taught by Lucifer, we slept together. When I
had a sexual relationship with Adam, I could not feel the same passion for Adam
as I felt towards Lucifer. I came to miss Lucifer more and more. Strangely Adam
and I felt distant from each other. Whenever Lucifer glanced at me and tempted
me, he was irresistible. Eventually I was drawn to the bosom of Lucifer and
could satisfy my burning physical desire through him.
As
time passed by, I could not avoid God's eyes on me. I was scared of his anger
towards me. Then I went to Adam. Although I had no physical relationship with
him, strangely enough, I felt a sort of peace. Without realizing the reason why.
Whenever I went near Lucifer, I was captured by an intolerable fear. As time
passed, I came to realize that what I did with Lucifer was wrong and felt more
guilt towards Adam.
Adam
comforted me, but my heart was always tormented. That has been the story of my
life. I felt sorry for Adam, and I am a terrible sinner who cannot even ask for
forgiveness and salvation from God.. As the indemnity period is over, I am
elevated to this place, but I am the worst sinner.
I
wondered why God called such a sinner, Eve, so quickly to be near him. When
considering Adam and Eve are the unforgivable sinners as the first human
ancestors and the ones who caused the greatest pain to God. I was curious how
they could be in this spiritual realm.
As human
history flows, the day of joy when hell is liberated should arrive as soon as
possible. Otherwise, humans in physical bodies cannot be liberated from pain and
suffering on earth. Now, since an indemnity condition was set on their behalf,
Adam's family is finally liberated. Through the liberation of Adam's family, a
foundation for all sins and crimes to be forgiven is also established. Someday,
the gate to hell's exit will be wide open, and an eternal day of liberation will
come.
I came
to encounter Noah, Father of Faith, who built an ark on the top of a mountain.
He was residing in the upper level of the medium spirit world. He always prays,
bowing down and making special conditions such as sacrificial offerings to God
with all of his heart, mind and soul. He works very hard and dresses like a
farmer who plants rice seedlings, He makes an altar to make an offering to God.
Using his talent that built an ark, he thoroughly checks here and there to make
sure everything is perfect. He does his very best with everything he is involved
in. He does this wherever he goes, in whatever he does, not only for himself but
also for others. He also encourages others to pray and makes special conditions.
His facial expression is very kind, good-hearted, and pure, without thinking of
his own interest.
I asked
him, "Have you not changed your heart while building an ark for 120 years
at the top of a mountain?"
Noah
answered, "According to the direction of God, I was building an ark.
Therefore, I could not change my mind in the middle. If I changed my mind, I
would have doubted whether that direction was from God. I do not recall how the
time period of 120 years passed because I was totally committed to building the
ark. Actually, it was fun to build it. My children and wife also helped me, but
their support was not 100%. People usually seek for what is visible. They often
turn their faces away from God who is invisible. So, many times they shook me
while I was only focussing on building the ark. They would say: How can we live
alone when all others die in the flood? Why would God let us live alone? Let us
ask this question of God and when He gives us a clear answer, we can continue to
build the ark. If God destroys all humankind, there will be no descendants. God
is not so cruel as to do such things to humans, etc. All kinds of temptations
came to me, but I did not pay any attention to any of them, but only focussed on
building the ark. Still, I am grateful that my wife and children did not turn
away from me. While we were living on earth, the greatest joy was to attend God
with all of our hearts and obey His words. That is why in a wonderful place like
this, I am teaching people how to attend God in the right way. This is the most
joyous time for me. It may sound rude, but may I ask how you came to be given
such a great grace of the love of God? How well did you attend God when you were
living on earth?"
Noah did
not know True Parents well. I explained about Them for some time. Then, he was
immersed into deep thought for a while until he said, "You seem to have
been born at the right time." He seemed to be expressing an envious heart
by saying this. When I told him that everyone can be this close to God, he
replied, "I am grateful for where I am. People go to the level that
corresponds to the merit they received while attending God on earth." He
expressed the desire to learn more about True Parents.
Another
thing that I was interested in was the time of the flood judgement. Noah
responded. "God one day gave me an urgent order: Noah, Noah, hurry up and
get into the ark with the others." Three days thereafter, it started to
rain. From that time on, all family members began to believe in me. When we were
confined for three days, everyone including the animals made such a commotion to
get off the ark. At that time I only depended on God and prayed constantly. The
main theme of my prayer was. "Please build your nation through the flood
judgment." As it started to rain, everyone inside the ark remained silent.
All of my family members paid attention to my every movement or action.
The
flood that continued for 40 days and nights was truly an incredible tempest. Due
to the heavy rain, the entire world was dark. The rain flowing in the valleys
made mountains fall down, with their tree branches broken. Lightening and
thunder was ceaseless. Realizing that this was truly a punishment from God, I
only continued to pray. All I was wondering about was when God's indignation
would be stopped. 40 days later, after the rain had stopped, God said that my
faith calmed His indignation down. A ray of sunshine shone on the window of the
ark, the tempest started to die down. Ever since then, all of my family members
followed my directions, depending on me. There was unity in the family. It was a
happy time of our life together."
I asked,
"May I ask you about the mistake made by Ham?" He replied, "That
year, all of us worked very hard. Especially, the harvest for grapes was a great
success. Since all of us did our best, everything was abundant and our hearts
were peaceful. We were just so happy. One day, I had a glass of wine after
working hard and happened to fall asleep out of fatigue. I must have been too
hot from drinking the wine and without realizing it, I must have taken off all
my clothes, making me naked. Usually, my second son was obedient to me. Since I
was sleeping, he had the desire to make sure I was sleeping comfortably. He must
have come into my room, when seeing me sleeping naked, he must have been
surprised.
My
family members who had returned from work and saw me in such a condition made a
commotion about it. Especially, my wife was upset with me, asking me why I could
not even take care of myself as a person who attended God. The fact that I could
not do it became a great sin before God. Although I attended God all of my life,
since the flood judgement I became arrogant rather than being humble. For this,
God punished us, admonishing us. God always thinks that humility comes first.
"Then he added that whenever he thinks of his mistake, he always feels
repentful, without being able to lift his face up before God.
Noah
attended God all of his life. Thus he thought that God should be able to forgive
the mistake of his son, Ham, but He would not. It is because of the Fall of Man,
and if God forgave, it could be another condition for Satan to invade. That is
why God could not forgive Ham's act. This is the law of the spirit world. There
is no exception in the heavenly law. Therefore, those who want to be treated
generously before God should live a life that can pass the heavenly law in the
spirit world. Then you can be treated by God accordingly. I sincerely hope that
people on earth will be able to come to God by passing all of His tests.
I think
I was introduced to Abraham and Isaac even before I met them in person because I
heard, while I was in the spirit world, that Abraham had been meeting important
figures in God's providence. They came to visit me, saying that they could not
have someone important as me to come to them. Abraham is a good looking and
gentle hearted person. I said that I would like to go and visit his place, he
answered that people around him are able to attend God well, bowing down to God
in the morning and the evening, according to the heavenly law.
I
expressed my interest in the offering of Isaac. He understood me, agreeing with
me. And he started, "Since I did not have a child for a long time, I made
special efforts in attending God. There was nothing that I could reject or deny
in God's voice. Further, my wish was that I depend on God in everything and live
with Him. As I made special efforts every day, at the age of 100 He gave me a
son. The preciousness of this son was indescribable. I was so immersed in
enjoying him that I almost forgot to make offerings to God although God is the
one who gave me that son.
As the
child was growing, he was interested in everything that his father, I, was
doing. He loved me very much. Perhaps, it is because he is a son who was given
to me after making many special conditions to God, and he would say,
"Father, today, why is there no water on the altar? God should be upset
with this, and I will bring some water for Him." In such a way he grew and
grew in health and wisdom. One day, God called me and said, "Abraham, I
would like to receive an offering from you, that may be a difficult offering for
you to give. Will you still do it for me?" I replied, "I will do
whatever you ask me to do. Please go ahead and tell me what to do." Then
God said, "Abraham, I would like to have you offer your precious son,
Isaac." I thought I misheard Him and asked Him again, "What have you
said?" He answered, "I told you to offer your son.
I could
not tolerate the pain. Whether it was day or night, everything seemed so dark to
me. For several days, as I was in torment. Isaac came to me and asked, insisting
that I answer him, "Father, is anything wrong?"
I told
him, "God has asked me to make an offering." Isaac was surprised and
asked wondering, "Father, why are you taking so long to execute God's
direction? Please do it quickly." With his push I told him, "I should
not make this offering here, but at a place far away, in a deep mountain."
Isaac
said, "Then it is all the more reason why you should be in a hurry. Let us
leave quickly." Due to his pressure, I could no longer resist him. Several
days after our departure, when we arrived at a mountain, he asked me,
"Father, what will be the sacrificial offering object this time?" I
could not answer him. As fire wood was piled up, I just called Isaac's name and
embraced him. Then Isaac said, "Father, God asked you to offer Him Isaac,
right? I knew it when I saw your gloomy face." Then he continued, "I
am grateful for God to choose me as the offering object. Father, what are you
worried about? Becoming an offering object is good. It is a blessing." Then
he lay down on the fire woods without hesitation. Looking at the sky, I
earnestly prayed with mixed feelings in my heart and with fear towards God and
grief for my son, "Father, I am offering my son to you!" With this
prayer, as I am about to strike him with a sword, I heard a voice from the sky,
"Abraham,
I now know that you respect me. Stop what you are going to do." Then,
Isaac, who was lying on the fire woods sat up and pushed me, asking, "Why
are you stopping? Please continue to make the offering!" He continued,
crying out loud, "Father, if you falsely swear before God, I cannot look at
your face." Then God called, "Isaac!" Isaac who heard His voice
this time listened to me. Through this, although I failed in making the burned
offerings according to God's direction, God forgave us, father and son. At that
time Isaac joked, "Perhaps God thought that I was too young to be an
offering object."
Isaac
has a small build, but he is taking after his father, he is a good looking man
with a humble heart. Abraham and Isaac were so close to each other to the extent
that I was envious of their relationship. Abraham's offering of Isaac teaches us
many lessons.
Judas
Iscariot always ran away when I saw him. I went to visit him a number of times,
but he did not want to see me. So one day, I left a message on a piece of paper,
"Your past fault should not be hidden, but should be revealed in order to
be forgiven." Then, after several days, I visited him, at which tie he
agreed to see me. Bending his head down like a sinner, he asked me. "Why
are you coming after me who is such a great sinner?" I did not answer
immediately. After some time, Judas continued, "A historical criminal like
me cannot come to God nor to the Lord. As I am repenting my sin, living here
like this, please do not come to see me anymore."
"How
painful your heart must be. It may not be a great comfort to you, but I thought
I might be able to ease your painful heart," said I. He responded, "So
far, there has not been even one single person who tried to comfort a sinner
like me. But no one, and nothing can be a comfort to me, and therefore I again
request you not to visit me anymore." I could not introduce either Divine
Principle or Unification Thought to him. His living environment was barren like
that of a prison, and I could hardly see anyone around him. Earthly people
usually think that hell is a place where many people are crying and screaming,
filled with an unbearable bad odor, but actually, hell is a lonely place. I
returned to my place thinking that I would visit him again and help him after a
while when he is more calm.
John the
Baptist is short but has a smart looking face. When I asked Jesus how John the
Baptist was doing, Jesus asked me not to say that I met him (Jesus). He also
added that John the Baptist would not want to meet me, and thus I would not be
able to meet him. The place of John the Baptist was very distant from that of
Jesus. When I went to visit him, a gigantic person who was carrying a sword
stopped me, saying that not everyone is allowed to see his master. Then he asked
me to put down my name in the visitor's book. As I entered his house after
signing my name, John the Baptist received me, bowing down and said, "How
could the messenger of God come to such a humble place like mine," and he
sat down, kneeling down before me. Even before I asked him any questions, he
started to talk, "On earth, I was respected and followed by many people,
but now, my dwelling place is so humble and I can not even see the Lord.
Further, even if I would like to attend the Lord, He would not come here. I was
so accustomed to be attended to and I did not pay attention to Jesus' life at
all. And because I thought and related to Jesus not with God's eyes, but with
human eyes. I did not realize that it would be such a great sin. Since I do not
know how to be forgiven, I am frustrated. As you came here as the messenger of
God, could you help me?" When I asked him why a man with a sword was
guarding the gate, he answered that he is always insecure with a fear that
someone might come to hurt him and therefore he meets people selectively. I told
him, "You need to continuously repent until the day when the gates of hell
will be opened." And I introduced True Parent to him. Then, he asked me
when that day of liberation will come. As I was returning home, my heart ached
because I know that before True Parents, there are many people like him on
earth, who will be living a life like that of John the Baptist in the spirit
world.
To meet
him I had to go everywhere to look for him. I asked to God about his whereabouts
but God only shook his head. I asked around but nobody knew. So I finally
decided to go down to low levels to look for him. When I went down to low level,
I really felt hell. And then what happened! A giant man injured by gun and knife
was leaning against the door, I could not even go inside, and sat there with the
ghastly sight. I asked him, "By any chance are you the Premier II Sung
Kim?" He was moaning and groaning and could not even hold his head up and
yet asking who am I? I told him who I am and mentioned Father's name.
He was
bleeding everywhere but he changed his position to kneel down. And he said
"I committed so much sin, and did so much wrong things to him (T.F.)
therefore I am paying for all that now." I asked him why don't you go
inside instead of staying here by the entrance? He said, "I wish I can do
that but as soon as I go in, those people throws stone, knife, gun and all kinds
of things at me and create such a riot that I cannot endure. Also they scream
and saying, Go away, you son -- to me that I cannot stay inside."
"Why
are you looking for me? Do you think that my son Jung Il would know about all my
misery? North Korea will perish. I knew that before I came to spirit world, but
could not do anything about it. I was just hoping that Jung Il would attend True
Father and listen his advice to lead the country. I never knew of North Korean
people's shouting, and screaming is so loud like this. I really did not know my
sin was so great, like this. No one welcomes me anywhere. Could you please save
me?" he begged. I had to give Divine Principle and Unification Ideology
lecture. I really could not bear to see that gruesome scene. I went inside the
door, and it was like the open space of a jail. All of the people whom were
there rose and ask me, "Who are you? How could you come in here so
imposingly?" I told them that I am a messenger from God. I asked them to
give me a little time to talk to them.
From
here and there, I heard them saying sarcastically, "All right. We have
plenty of time. Give us a speech." I explained to them God is the main
person of love and after that gave a lecture about dual characteristics of God.
I also appealed to them with tears for about 40 to 50 minutes. I told them that
they have to live for others. Love and help each other and forgive each other's
faults. They must endure and wait until the day of their from liberation of
hell.
After
that, I told Kim Il Sung to lay down so that I could treat his wounds. People
around us started to help by cleaning his wounds, and atmosphere changed to very
calm and composed. I asked them if I could come again, later on, for more
lectures. Some said fine and some did not want to be bothered.
Kim Il
Sung sat down anxiously. He could not lift his head up and he could not even
look at me when I was leaving. On the way back I was thinking, earthly life is
so short who can know about this kind of fact and earthly people cannot see the
spiritual world, therefore they only cling to what they can see and are only
concerned with their earthly lives. This leads to the punishment of hell. That
kind of life can only face this kind of wretched hell. What a poor life! I am
writing this letter in the hope of being a vital energy for our members so
without suffering, all of our members can directly be embraced in God's bosom.
Explaining
the realm of Unification Spiritual World: "Here is a real heaven. Here is a
real Eden. Here it is really peaceful. In here everybody is happy. Here is full
hope. Here is a real garden of love. Here is really enraptured. Here is the
place where the bud of love sprouts. Here is a real holy place, that cannot
express enough beauty." Here Heung Jin Nim is always the first to work very
quietly, humbly, and in complete detail. And he always ask to God about the work
and seek his opinion. He goes around each level and listen to their situations
and comforts them and so on. Missionary Jong Koo Park always attend Heung Jin
Nim and goes everywhere with him. Sometimes Missionary Park stops Heung Jin Nim
from going to too hard places and he takes care of the things instead of Heung
Jin Nim.
Dae Mo
Nim always prays, just like she had done during her earthly life. She does not
move from Heung Jin Nim's living place, and she always prays. Dae Mo Nim lives
with only one mind and wish, which long life for True Parents. Choong Mo Nim
calls Dae Mo Nim elder mother, and she always follows beside Dae Mo Nim, and
tries to learn all the little things. One time I witnessed a very interesting
scene. Dae Mo Nim's couple and Choong Mo Nim's couple were together and talking
to each other, and Dae Mo Nim's husband said, "Let's have fun time
together. I feel we are so distant because we are too serious and too formal to
each other." Then Dae Mo Nim said, "How can in-laws have fun together?
Aren't in-laws supposed to be formal and serious to each other?" After that
atmosphere changed to serious again. Choong Mo Nim is always serious and formal,
and she try very hard to learn.
President
Hyo Won Eu always give Divine Principle lecture. He returns to the lecturing
position even when talking with members comfortably. Divine Principle lecture is
his life itself. Even in this kind of happy atmosphere, we have some bad times
too. Also many of our members are here but that doesn't mean that everybody is
happy. They carry the names of their sins like a name tag. It is revealed to the
public. Therefore until they pay off the indemnity, they face many
embarrassments and pains. Even in heaven, there are different levels. I am not
going to say anymore about it. But if I summarize it, heavenly life is the
extension of earthly life. Spiritual World is like going in to the storage with
the fruit of your own life. But more precious than grain is an attitude of
serving others. We all learned about give and take action from Divine Principle
and the very basis of that is for the sake of others. Therefore if we live for
others rather than ourselves, it will be all right.
