Simultaneous translation is done in summary form and depends greatly on the translator's ability to communicate the essence of the message. These cannot be published as definitive texts and should never be used in the future as an "official" publication of Rev. Moon's words. However, they do provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the message.)
Because of the fall everything was destroyed. To restore that we must receive God's blessing and be engrafted into the root of God's lineage and true love. Then we can multiply that root through the family.
As long as there is the division of the mind and body, conflict will continue. The division of the mind and body leaves us selfish; this is destructive and leads to evil. We should unify our mind and body. We should be in harmony with the creation, which is based on complete balance.
We should bring harmony in all relations. Breathing is harmonious. The action of inhaling and exhaling is an example of the harmony with which the universe is created. Everything is based on give and take action.
Husband and wife should also go up and come down in a cycle. It is so serious that the husband and wife become one in love. When we make love we feel an explosion. This relationship is central and holy to life. It should be like a beautiful offering to God. Every cell of your body should be in some kind of motion. There should be a vertical relationship and a horizontal relationship. Then love can flow in 12 different directions. When you have a person with whom you share true love, you have tremendous energy. Without love you lose energy.
You can experience all kinds of things. Whether sweet or sour it all adds up to make a rich life. When we are first blessed in the Unification Church, we experience a great deal of difficulty with our spouse. The reason why God gives you sweet and sour experiences is that as you overcome them, you become deep and well rounded. Blood and other wastes are removed through the sexual organs!
Husband and wife should develop their relationship. If the husband wants to go north and the wife wants to go south, there will be trouble. To solve this we must discover the Principle direction and center our marriage on the Principle direction. The Principle will direct us in the way we should go.
If we don't know the Principle, then Satan will invade us. Only by knowing the Principle and using it can we bring Satan to a natural surrender. If you make efforts in this direction you will go up and up and up.
We must understand clearly the Principle and direction that we must take. When you pray, you should have a certain harmony. When the hand is going up, the foot should be anchored to the earth. If you can express these things you can express the Principle naturally and in prayer you can communicate with God's heart.
The baby is taking the mother's nipple. When the mother's breasts are filled with milk, it causes problems if it isn't removed. The milk can be removed by a pump or even by the husband, if the baby cannot drink enough milk.
When you pray, you should do so in such a way that you can touch Heavenly Father's heart. You should move God's heart with your heart.
When the husband comes home and wants to caress his wife, she should respond. If she is continually cold and not interested, it sometimes means that she is fooling around with another man.
Even if you are persecuted and rejected by others, it will not matter if you are properly connected to God. You have to understand that even being in the Unification Church for a long time does not give you a high place in the spirit world. Your place is based on the development of your heart and foundation of accomplishments.
Shin Joon Nim responds to True Parents with heart. He shares the same excitement and same frequency with True Parents. It is all in the realm of heart.
Every day you should be getting better. You cannot just tell others what to do; you must do it. If you just give orders from a high position you will lose the position. If you are at the top, you must be willing to go down. If you are at the bottom, you can go up.
The same is true with giving a sermon. You should know how to control your breathing. When you are speaking, you should sweat.
I went to prison so many times. In Hungnam, I had to carry 40-kilo sacks of fertilizer. I would have to do this all day long. By making it into rhythm I could continue indefinitely day after day.
There is always movement and harmony and balance. When you dance, you move. When you are riding in a car, you are always moving and bringing balance to your position in the car. While sleeping, you are always moving. Such movement makes a balance.
Many times I don't sleep at night. By taking short naps in the car I can better control my sleeping. Before Hoon Dok Hae this morning I did more than one hour of exercise as well as prayer and meditation. Many hours before Mother wakes up, I am praying.
Wherever I go, whatever I do, I must be able to take care of my health. I learned that in prison. Then I can overcome everything. Today for 27 minutes I had to do exercises that were equal to more than one hour. For 90 minutes I was running. Mother is concerned about that. People have asked me not to run, but I know how to best control my health.
[Rev. Kim from Brazil and Rev. Kwak reported about soccer.]
I could go to the spirit world at any time. Rev. Kwak, you should think about how long you will live. I know that I must live to be 92 years old. I cannot rest or I will collapse. I must not rest. I know my life's mission and goal. Yesterday, you shared concern that I might die on the tour. I don't like to hear that at all. I don't care if I die. Everything will be fine if I am doing God's will.
I was told yesterday that maybe you can have events in different places and others will cover. I don't like that idea. Also, you gave the idea for the numbers in each country. This is not acceptable. Unless we can pioneer we cannot be elevated. We must expand our territory with each step.
Any leader who doesn't come to Hoon Dok Hae every day should be fired. We must win the battle of the mind and body. This is very serious. We do Hoon Dok Hae each and every day.
Even at this age I am strong and serious. I am so serious that I will discuss things in depth with God.
There is no time to rest. What are you going to do? This is not the time to rest. This is the time to revolutionize this nation of America. Every day you should have a clear idea of what you want to accomplish. Don't you know that my thought is more developed than any other thought in history?
I cannot trust many of you. I cannot share confidential information. God is totally focused on a brand new world on earth and in the spirit world. I will not sit on a throne in the spirit world. I will work even harder there to make a new world for God.
The high-level people we met last night were very special. However, I am not impressed by any high positions.
Many great things are happening. As Rev. Kwak reported, the Peace Cup soccer tournament has changed public opinion so much concerning our work in Korea. This is a great time.
{Rev. Kwak reported that the Universal Peace Federation Presiding Council members came and had a special dinner with True Parents. It was a moment of great joy. Father gave a special message, and they are very committed to building the Peace Kingdom.)
Then Won Ju began to read and kept breaking into uncontrollable laughter. The section she was reading dealt with various aspects of the man's love organ. She was very shy and couldn't stop laughing because it was so unusual to be reading this. It was a most joyful moment. Of course, Father went into more detail directly about the love organs, saying there is nothing to be ashamed about. Love organs are holy in a blessed marriage centering on true love.
Tomorrow we celebrate Chu Sok [mid-autumn moon festival, or harvest moon festival]. Chu Sok in Chinese characters means the evening of autumn.
Now we are entering the land of Canaan. We must embrace all people. We must now embrace everyone with true love. Abel and Cain have no boundaries between them anymore. There is always a way to embrace everyone with true love. Now we are responsible to educate people with the Principle. Then we can liberate the entire hell. Truly we should be able to build the heavenly kingdom on earth and in heaven.
We can have an eternal mansei then and establish the Peace Kingdom. Then God, Adam and Eve, and all humanity will say mansei and rejoice in history.
