The seed of life is always made up of two halves. This is a principle of heaven and earth. God exists as one being, one personality, with dual characteristics, which are symbolized by the seed. Within the seed is a germ, parts of which will form the roots, the bud, and so on. In other words, within it is everything required for it to develop its existence; it is made so that, even if left to itself, it can grow into a perfected substantial form. (262-147, 1994.7.23)

The topic of our conversation moved on to the wedding of the 30,000 Couples and I asked, “Elder Brother Il-sung, would you be willing to open the thirty-eighth parallel if I were to bring the 30,000 Couples to North Korea?” He answered, “Of course, of course! Wow, that is splendid!” He actually invited me to bring the 30,000 Couples to North Korea. So I replied, “But there aren’t any hotels here.” He then told me, “The Songdo Beach Resort is very famous worldwide and hundreds of thousands of people can be accommodated in the pine fields there. So if you brought one tent for every ten people, you wouldn’t have any problem.” What he said was true. He said we should bring our own food as well and that he would open the port of Wonsan for us, so that we could bring all we needed by boat. (239-42, 1992.11.23)
I was planning to have the 30,000 Couples visit the Songdo Beach Resort in North Korea, taking with them tents, each for ten people. It was a time when everything could be out in the open. The North Korean government even said, “We will do whatever you want.” I also notified the present South Korean government of this plan. Who prevented me from carrying it out? It was our government in the South. Still I did not perish. The bright morning sun dawns on the path that follows the heavenly way, but once you leave that path, you will be enveloped in total darkness. You will be plunged into complete and eternal darkness.

Sin and Restoration Through Indemnity
Chapter 2
The Internal Meaning of Sin and the Fall
Section 6. The Blessing of the True Parents and the Restoration of Lineage
6.1. True Parents are needed as the Messiah
Summary:
Achieving spiritual salvation and transforming one’s bloodline requires total dedication to the True Parents, placing love for them above all worldly attachments, including family and one’s own life 💖. Although the Messiah provides the path to change lineage, individuals must take extreme personal responsibility—often involving life-and-death sacrifices, intense prayer, or severe fasting ⏳—to establish the necessary conditions of indemnity to overcome Satan’s influence and redeem their lives 🕊️.
You should earnestly long for the Parents. You cannot receive salvation without attending the Parents based on their being the motivation for your life, the entirety of your hope and the root of all your ideals and happiness. Have you ever tried offering attendance like that? You should understand this clearly. Hence, you should have the conviction that you are a child who can become eternally one with True Parents, and have it so firmly that you can transcend your consciousness of your own being. Otherwise, it will not work. (30-237, 1970.3.23)
How much must you love me? We are returning to the fundamental question. You should not love while having traces of love of the satanic world on you, while being stained by that love. You must be above that love. What does that mean? You must love me more than you love your mother, father, wife and children who were born in the satanic world, more than you love anybody else.
That is why it is written in the Bible, “He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” (Matt.10:37) Jesus made such a conclusion. He said later, “If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” (Matt. 16:24) He went on to say that we must take up the cross and follow him. He told us to take the cross. Since we have to overcome the power that pulls us in the opposite direction, it is called a cross. We must shed bitter tears. (178-97, 1988.6.1)
Although the Messiah may change your lineage, it is you who must act in order to change it. Without such a standard being established we cannot reach the path of salvation. It is by no means achieved easily, but only through a situation where our life is at stake. The change of lineage is possible only when you fulfill a forty-day period of fasting and prayer or experience a state of death in which you are vomiting blood. (35-160, 1970.10.13)
You must learn from me about how to set up conditions of indemnity. If in the past there had been someone in Japan who wanted to know this, and who had bought this knowledge at the cost of all Japan, Japan might have already unified the world. There is no business in the world better than this. The Bible says, “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life?” (Matt.16:26) That is how precious life is. We must understand the way to set indemnity conditions and revive our precious life. (22-207, 1969.2.4)
