The Way For Students - 044 Chapter 2. Human Value And The Mysteries Of The Human Body Section 1. The Position And Characteristics Of Human Beings
1) The Status Of Human Beings ④ Lord of All Creation C. God's Absolute Object, Man - 3
If an ape is placed in the presence of the absolute being, God, as the absolute object, how much would man rebuke the apes, saying, "Look at that ape, God's object which cannot even control its movement, and which walks with four legs!" It is an incomplete stage when an animal walks with four legs.
When we are infants we walk with four legs. Therefore, the ape is in an incomplete stage in its shape. Man does not walk with four legs but rather walks with two legs. That means that man is more stable than an ape.
And man is the agent of communication between heaven and earth. Man can cross a line not zigzagging but straight. Therefore, there is a content in man that is connected to oneness. |
