True Day of All Things 2000
Rev. Sun Myung Moon
June 2, 2000
New Yorker Hotel
Translation by Mrs. Hee Hun Standard
Unofficial Notes by Tyler Hendricks
[Father refers to the list of the holy days.] Those days came in order. We have to think about true love. When we have true love, we can follow the path of True Parents. We can liberate God in that way. The only thing that will remain will be God, based upon true love. It can come from true lineage. That way we can establish a family, tribe, society, nation and world and bring unity of physical world and spirit world. That is God’s goal for the providence of restoration.
What is today? [Cham man mul eui nal.] What shall I talk about? You? God? All things? Love? If all creation, people and God had been perfect, then we would have loved everyone and everything. So beyond time and space, past, present or future, whether day or night, we should continuously live for the sake of the providence of restoration. If we can have all those, then we can possess everything in the world. If we have everything, then we can melt everyone’s heart.
Shall I talk about good first, then bad? Or bad first, then good? People are using the translation system by radio. Should we use those radios? You western members need to be serious not to use this crutch. If you do not know Korean, then when you go to spirit world you will have some problems there. Here we should speak in Korean. We should feel sympathy for those who cannot speak Korean. Shall I talk about something good first, or the other way around? You make the choice? Why? Why is it such a good day? You want everything to be good, right?
Which of your fingers is the longest? [Holds up his middle finger.] You have two hands and you want to match those fingers with each other. When men and women are together, who is taller? Centered on love, they are the same. In terms of physical height they may be different, but in terms of love their height is the same. Which finger is this? The third, counting from either end of the hand. When they come together, they touch each other (all fingertips on one hand touching). These are father, mother and children. Which is the easier finger to touch the thumb? We can see the four-position foundation. When you look at the fingers, everything is good. Whether good or bad words, everything is good. Whether you are complimented or chastised, everything is good for you.
The middle finger is the center. The middle finger is like the number three and eight. The DMZ is on the 38th parallel. When we can eliminate that 38th parallel, we can bring the liberation. When the fetus is in the womb, the baby clenches its fist tightly, so the fingernails do not scratch its body.
The 4 seasons and 12 months come from the four-position foundation. We should keep a protocol in our life based on the number 24. This can represent God. Basically, when we move our body, our eyes are also moving. The universe turns around because of God. In our faith, the center is the nose. Do you eat with your nose, or breathe with it? When you breathe you take in invisible air, and eat visible elements with your mouth. If you do not eat physical food, you will die. Which is the more important, between breathing and eating? Communists say we live to eat. But is air or food more important? Actually, air is more crucial to the sustenance of life. People can forego food for 40 days, but without air you will die in minutes. So our life depends not upon visible food but invisible air. For the spirit we need invisible things, but for the body we need something visible.
What is most important to God? Not food, power, intellect, but God absolutely needs love. Do you agree with that? [Yes!] How do you know love is the most important thing to God? Those who do not love do not know the meaning of love. Those who know it prefer to eat love, not food. Have you ever eaten love? Why were men and women born? What is the purpose of their birth? For the sake of love. Through what can you eat love? What is the container for the eating of love? Is it the sexual organ? So, saeng shik gi can be interpreted “container that can hold love and life.” When you become a man and woman, although you cannot see love, you understand what love is like. Rev. Kwak, Dr. Yang, do you know what love tastes like? [Understand!] Once you taste it, even if husband and wife fight, they will smile and fall asleep and enjoy. Some might say, how can the founder of a religion say something like that? What I am teaching you is a different taste from others. You love me, that is why you are all following me. Do you like me? [Yes, applause.]
