NOTE:
These notes are taken from a Peace TV video clip. They
cannot be published as definitive texts and should
never be used in the future as an "official"
publication of True Father's words. However, they do
provide a good idea of the "spirit" of the
message. - Rev. Katsumi Kambashi
Ms.
McDevitt read Father's speech from his speech book #
38, titled "Path of Life." In the speech
Father said,
"There
are two things that will never change in the world:
the function of your conscience and the love of your
parents."
"What kind of person is a
good person? It is the person that behaves as their
mind tells them to do."
"Before you
live for the sake of others, your mind need to be
united with 천정
(Cheonjeong:
heavenly emotions, heavenly love.) first"
"Since
mind and body are equal in power, they fight to win.
Therefore what religion does is to strengthen mind and
to weaken the body. So fast and pray, and sacrifice
yourself for the sake of others. Then your mind can
dominate your body, and after a certain period of
time, it will become habitual."
"When
you reach that level, you can feel that Heaven is
helping you accomplish what you want to realize. Then
you can manage your life centering on your absolute
conscience, and this is the purpose of practicing
religion."
The
following are some of Father's words after the
reading.
"Where
are we now? The nation and the (Korean) president are
the issues now. What I wish is that the president of
this country, who can decide things, have the mindset
to adapt himself to God's providence, but he doesn't
have it. The issue is whether or not what they (he and
his people) decide and want to do is still within the
acceptable range. If they only want to do as they
want, I must eternally cut off my relationship with
them. If their 정서
(Jeong
Seo / 情緖:
love, emotion, feeling, sentiment) is more advanced
than ours, we have to follow them, and if our 정서
is
advanced, they must follow us. There aren't two ways
but there is only one way."
"There
are east, west, south, and north. If you can't solve
the problem in the east, you can do it in the west, If
you can't solve the problem in the west, then go to
the south, and north. If you can't do it yet, do it at
the center. If you still can't solve the problem, do
it at the pillar."
