When you go to the spirit world, will your ancestors come to you or not? They will say, “Wow, our descendants joined the Unification Church and met Rev. Moon!”
From that point on, the palace and the Royal Family of heaven will start. Until now, there has been no palace in heaven.
Between the grandson who obtusely does what I say and the granddaughter who tries to be smart and, according to her thoughts, evades me imperceptibly like an eel, who will the ancestors praise?
Will they praise the granddaughter who acts like a rabbit or the grandson who acts like a turtle? They will praise the one who acts like a turtle.
Rabbits urinate often. I do not know about turtles. I have not seen them urinate. Rabbits urinate after hopping for a short while and do it again after a short while.
Why? They are marking their territory to stop other rabbits from encroaching. So we should be like turtles. Those who do as they are told and who move on, forgetting about whether it is day or night, oblivious to the passage of time and the seasons, will be welcomed everywhere.
All your ancestors in the other world are watching the way you live. There is nowhere to hide. They see everything. When you go to the spirit world, you will be able to pass through walls and even the entire earth.
We must go and live in such a world eternally. Since we were created as God's objects of love, He needs beings who become object partners to His eternal love forever. Just as He is eternal, we are eternal. Without becoming partners of love, we have no eternal life.
In the other world, who goes to the highest place?
Those who wish it were possible to be born again as people who serve humanity as God does. Those who empathize with Him and comfort Him eternally get closest to Him: they are those who try to use whatever good things they have for the sake of humanity. When grandparents approach their dying day, do they not pass on all good things to their children?
Just as grandparents hand down to their descendants the fruits of their labors, with that kind of heart, we should live in a way that enables us to say we will bequeath something to humanity.
