    It is only after we go beyond the realm of the Fall and restore the rights of both the first and second born sons on God’s side, that we can stand in the original world for the first time. This is the original ideal of creation. As God is absolute, His ideal has also remained absolute. To regain the original ideal, we must undergo a historical course of restoration through indemnity in order to go beyond the fallen realm. (134-304, 1985.8.16)

    Where should America go? It should return to Asia. It should seek the Asian continent where Jesus’ body was lost. The era of the Pacific civilization is coming. Yet, why is the era of the Asia-Pacific civilization coming? Even scholars do not know this. This cannot be solved without Rev. Moon’s principle. America will be compelled to seek Asia. Currently, America has only the spiritual standard. Therefore, in order to make use of the body, it must return to Asia. (225-30, 1992.1.1)

14.1. Birth

Summary:
Children are a precious, irreplaceable gift from God that cannot be bought or exchanged for anything in the entire world. The process of childbirth is intentionally designed by God to be a grueling, life-and-death struggle so that parents can experience a brilliantly shining, profound depth of love. In the chaotic moment of birth, when a newborn finally cries out, a mother’s intense pain vanishes in an instant, allowing her to love her child even more deeply because of the hardships she overcame. To honor this mysterious and unfathomable miracle of new life, Blessed families should hold a formal ceremony to dedicate their newborns to heaven, which must be performed on the seventh day after birth for daughters and on the eighth day for sons.

    I caught one black fish yesterday, but you cannot imagine how strong this particular one was. This amazing fish even cracked open a shellfish and ate it. In fishing, the moment that requires the most careful attention is fishing for black fish. You know crabs, right? When I cut the crab and put it on the hook as bait, a black fish comes and eats it away. It will come to eat and quickly go away. It is miraculous. When there are many fishing rods with bait placed in the water, these black fish come and eat the bait without you even noticing them. (217-208, 1991.6.1)

    When you give sermons on Sunday, you must be serious. If I were you, I would not get any sleep. How could one sleep? Giving a sermon is like giving an injection in order to save other people’s lives. It is the same as giving a rejuvenation shot. We need to give members one week’s worth of medication and rejuvenation shots. You must lead from the serious position of a doctor who gives a shot to a patient who is on the brink of death. That is why when you go to the podium; it is like going to the place of execution. (75-176, 1975.1.2)

Summary
To establish a true reign of peace, you must live a life of unconditional love that honors your nation even more than your ancestors did, ensuring you are never a source of shame to your lineage. The Unification movement fully embraces the tradition of honoring ancestors, instructing members to visit graves with the same deep respect they would show to God, repent for past shortcomings, and hold annual memorial services on the anniversaries of their passings. Performing these bowing rituals and preparing food tables in a room with True Parents’ picture is a holy, liberating act rather than a sin, as it shifts secular ancestor worship into a heavenly tradition centered on True Parents and the divine lineage. Because Korea is considered the eldest son nation whose historical focus on genealogies aligns with heavenly law, following these practices allows families to secure the rights of a chosen people and create a royal domain where succeeding generations can transition directly into heaven.

You Are Historical Reincarnations Wearing the Face of Your Ancestors

The long course of history was intended to eventually create one person, yourself.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 488   

When people get married, they say they will love each other until they die. In saying this, one can either just say, “I will love you until I die (Juk-dorok sarang-handa)” or draw out the first word, “Ju-u-u-u-u-k…” for ten years, a hundred years, or a hundred million years, and then say the rest, “…dorok sarang-handa.” Which would you like better? Would you rather just hear it Chapter 7 • The Love of a True Husband and a True Wife 489 simply as, “Juk-dorok sarang-handa”? The young women here, how about some answers? You would be happier if your spouse says, “Ju-u-u-u-u-k” for say, a hundred million years, and then “dorok sarang-handa” than if he just said, “Jukdorok sarang-handa.” The more drawn out it is, the better. If a husband meets his wife and says, “Ju-u-u-u-u-k,” and ten years later, he says again, “Ju-u-u-uu-k,” and then says “Juk-dorok saranghanda” after he passes over the age of fifty. If only he can do it, she will say she loves him beyond measure. This is how it is. She will like him, even if he has a big belly and waddles when he walks. (37-25, 1970.12.22)

    You need to understand that there is no one on earth who would not be devoted to parents who are willing to suffer and carry the cross for their children forever, and give such parental love that the world and even God Himself would exclaim, “You are much better than I!”? Wouldn’t you want to be in such a position? If you live with a heart of gratitude for the life you are leading at present, even after giving everything you have over many years, yet always keeping His thoughts in your mind, then God Himself will praise you. If children live with such an attitude toward their parents, husbands toward their wives, wives toward their husbands, the family toward the nation, and the nation toward the world, how splendid that world will be! When that happens, God will not want to stay in the spirit world. He will quickly descend to the center of the human world and dwell here, recommencing the work of creation so that everyone can live abundantly. (215-243, 1991.2.20)

Section 12. Rituals in the Life of Blessed Families

Summary:
Human beings were originally born with a deep spiritual bond to God’s Pledge and must live and die by its words, reciting it every Sunday with their families as a powerful declaration that cuts off all connections to Satan’s world and clears away the week’s mistakes. True Father explains that traditional Korean ancestor worship and Confucian customs closely match heavenly law, making it essential for members to lovingly care for their ancestors’ graves, plant trees, and clean their hometowns to honor their lineage. Because every individual is a historical reincarnation who carries the faces of countless generations, human beings are the ultimate fruits of a long history that worked for hundreds of thousands of years to create them. Ultimately, by maintaining deep devotion to both the family Pledge and their ancestors, members establish a strong foundation of goodness that allows God’s laws to firmly take root on the earth.

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1287

    The sexual organs are the palace of love, the palace in which eternal life is born, the palace that inherits the future descendants and lineage which will succeed to the eternally unchanging traditions of heaven. It is the palace of true life, true love and true lineage. It is the most precious place of all. You cannot do anything you like with it. You cannot use it without permission from God. It is a place that cannot be touched by anyone other than your husband or wife, who has gained the approval of God and the universe. (216-207, 1991.3.31)

Cheon Seong Gyeong 1261

    How did the devil bring about the Fall? Through the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil? Where did they cover themselves after eating the fruit? Did they cover up their mouths or their hands? Didn’t they cover up the sexual parts of their bodies? This became the seed that sowed evil. They fell before they had fully matured, while they were still adolescents. As the lineage of humankind in world history stemmed form this act, in the Last Days the phenomenon of such relationships will thrive. The time will come, that, across the world, young people destroy the ethics of love. They will hide in the shadows, just like Adam and Eve, and have no fear of heaven. That will be the time when the era of Satan’s worldwide dominion will come to the earth. That is when we will be faced with the iron hammer of God. (200-227, 1990.2.25)

12.3. Hoondokhwae

Summary:
Hoondokhwae, the daily practice of reading the eight sacred texts designated by Rev. Moon, must be done by every blessed husband and wife for at least one hour every morning or evening, a strict standard that True Father himself never breaks even when exhausted from global tours. Members are expected to constantly read these books—such as Blessed Family and the Ideal Kingdom and the Divine Principle—wherever they are, carrying a book in their pocket and recording their reading hours. True Father explains that the word “hoondok” means flowing like a river and “selling” or sharing God’s words with others, as keeping these words to yourself is a spiritual mistake. Because these texts are God’s own words spoken through True Father and record his victories over the satanic world, reading them repeatedly until they become a part of you has the revolutionary power to move your heart and body. Ultimately, Hoondokhwae is True Father’s way of passing down the priceless spiritual treasures he gathered through a lifetime of extreme hardship, and members must be diligent in studying them to stay healthy and build a victorious foundation on earth.

Families Pledge before God

    What do you think the color of love would be? Do you think it would be black at night, white during the daytime, and yellow in the evening? In the central color of love there is a strength that can bring peace and unity and create the concept of the equality of humanity. Isn’t the Unificationist concept of love beautiful? The color of love in today’s American society is, in short, a disgusting color of death. Instead of realizing the world of the eternal ideal of creation through conjugal love, they are sinking into the pit of death. Those who thoughtlessly enter the most holy place of love will suffer the fire of judgment. Until they receive the Blessing, men and women must keep their most holy place of love undefiled, and once they have made love, they must continue to keep it undefiled. However, Americans generally are wicked men and women who violate love’s sanctuary.
    Americans who do not accept marriage through the Blessing are nothing but patients who cannot see ahead because they are blinded by fallen love. If American society continues to behave like this, it will have no hope for the future but instead will be filled only with despair. It is crystal clear that it will eventually be destroyed – not by God’s judgment but rather by people who have lost their humanity. (Blessed Family – 344)

    If there is a professor from a marine university in that area, or if any studies on the fish in these waters have been done, you should conduct tests to see whether those studies were correct and accurately record the details in a book. You should inspect the seas that border the coastal states, gather everybody together and make plans to fish anywhere you go. In those states that border on the ocean, you should measure the depth and temperature of all the fishing areas, conduct research on the types of fish that live in that sea area, and then make a book on your findings. I am buying boats for you so that you can accomplish this. All twenty-four states bordering on the ocean should compile a book about their fishing grounds. If your state is not near an ocean, you should do so anyway centering on its lakes. Then from now on I am going to coach everyone on how to farm fish.
