Perfect the dutiful family way of filial sons and daughters in our family, patriots in our nation, saints in the world, and divine sons and daughters in heaven and earth 2.2.1. The path of filial sons and daughters, patriots, saints, and divine sons and daughters that we must inevitably go - 3
Those who live investing their entire life for their parents and then forget what they have invested are called true filial sons and daughters. A true filial son or daughter means that one is the truest among them all.
It is the same in nations; if someone aspires to become a loyal subject or patriot in front of the nation’s ruler, he can be called a true patriot when he invests, invests again, even invests his very life, and then forgets what he has invested.
Thus, a divine son or daughter is the one who can invest and invest his or her life again for the world, and those who invest even more and still want to invest more are called the most divine of all divine sons and daughters. That is how it is. (263-275, 1994.10.15) Will a wife feel happy or unhappy if her husband is absolutely obedient in front of his wife’s love? She will be absolutely happy. If the wife is also like that, her husband will be absolutely happy.
Those who are absolutely obedient in front of the love of their parents are filial sons and daughters. Those who have the same heart for the sake of the nation are known as patriots.
Those who have the same heart for the world are known as saints, and those who can have the same heart for heaven and earth are divine sons and daughters! Amen.
All of this is our textbook, material for our education! A…la, la, la, even your tongue dances, the flesh and skin of your stomach, and your stomach too, all dance saying, “A-men”! “Men” means “people.”
When you say “Amen!” think that it means “Ah! Amazing people.” Say “Amen” thinking about this meaning. Do you understand? (264-140, 1994.10.9) |
