God created man in His image and man is trying to develop the world into his image. Why do people want to be successful in life? The principle that man wants to deal with the world in the subject position is because the world resembles a person. Therefore, all people want to get success in society, and that expands to the nation and world.

Things are divided from one entity and are to be combined again, with combinations uniting into greater entities. This is the law of development. Through division and splitting off, larger entities are eventually formed. Everything is to enter a world bigger than itself.

Centering upon the family, we should accomplish "Cosmos-ism." The cosmos is the totality of heaven and earth. Heaven and earth, like mind and body in a man, should become one. One object is needed for one subject; likewise, one woman is needed for one man. The union of a man and woman is a family.

There is earth when there is heaven; when there are heaven and earth, there should be something symbolizing them, namely man and woman. The heartistic standard for those to be spherically one is the family. The family is the absolute standard for the world of purpose and it can pass through any process. There, the foundation for the new history, new world, and new cosmos is to be established.

"Cosmos-ism" is an ideology to make mind-body unity, to establish the family as the essence of love, and to connect this idea to the spirit world and physical world. The Chinese character for ju in chun-ju (Korean: cosmos) means house. That's why Father is using the term Chun-ju jui which means "Cosmos-ism" in Korean. The cosmos is the combination of the invisible world and the visible world. How does this relate to us? We need a family. If you cannot become one on the family level, "Cosmos-ism" will have nothing to do with you. The family is the ultimate standard to complete the ideal of which Cosmos-ism teaches. If you cannot be happy in a family, you will be unhappy in the spirit world as well as in the physical world.

The family is the horizontal foundation as the world in miniature. The nation and the world start from a family. What is the family? The family, as microcosm, is the standard for reciprocation in front of the absolute center. Then, what am "I"? I am the stepping stone for the absolute center.

The world has always resembled a family, no matter what kind of world it has been. The ideal world is to be established centering upon the three-family foundation.

Then, what is the purpose of creation? It is to accomplish the God-centered four-position foundation. Above all, human beings are to establish the four-position foundation; that's why everybody has a family.

Man is to resemble God and the society centering upon man is to resemble man centering upon God. By establishing the Unification Church in the world, Father has been creating such an environment. The people of the world know this principle, but they don't actualize it. Actualizing such a principle surely will change the world into the ideal. When the whole world completely resembles one true human being, it becomes the ideal world. There, we transcend nationality.

What are the most important moments in human life? The time of birth, the time of marriage and the time of death are the most important moments of one's life. How are we supposed to be born? We are supposed to be born centering upon heartistic affinity. Then we get married in order to establish the four-position foundation. When we establish this as a universal pattern on earth, God's Will and human desire will be accomplished. A family is to be established in order to equip the world with the content and form that the universal law directs.

A family is a small nation, world, and cosmos in the soil of society. Therefore, without the family we cannot do anything. The Unification Church is great because it believes in and teaches of such a family.

Where does the Kingdom of Heaven begin? It begins from the family. Then, which doctrine do we support? We support "Family-ism." The "Cosmos-ism" that we advocate means "Heavenly Family-ism." Now the meaning of the cosmos becomes clear.

The essence of the sixty-six books of the Bible is to convey the desire for the ideal family. What do all men desire? They desire to receive ideal wives. Men who don't agree with this are not men. Also, the common wish of all women is to meet ideal husbands.

A woman with a bachelor's degree or doctorate also needs an ideal husband. The root of happiness for a woman is to meet an ideal husband to love and then to give birth to children. Unificationism is implanted in the family, and so no one can root it out.

The family is the ideal of the Unification Church. It starts with a family and it also concludes with a family. Because happiness lies in the family, Unificationism has systemized it and is displaying its limitless cosmic value. That's why Unificationism is acknowledged. When everybody bows down and loves this ideology, the world will become one automatically.

In order to show the moral law of the universe and to leave the core content for establishing tradition through your families, you should begin with a grand inauguration.

You should love each other and should be prepared to be a fortunate couple in the position of each other's brother and sister, so that God can enjoy the principle of love of the three generations-love as brothers, as a couple, and as children. When the three generations become completely one in your family, you will be able to give and receive God's love. "Cosmos-ism," about which the Unification Church is talking, is an effort to realize God's ideal of creation centering upon families.

One family where God's love can blossom centering upon three generations of human love is the long-cherished hope of the world, humankind, and the future. It includes the precious and beautiful conjugal love which appears as a new flower spreading its fragrance across history in line with the universal law.

This world is composed of men and women. The thing that can bind the two is love. A husband and wife didn't come into being autonomously. They are connected by tradition to their parents. The family can make human beings inherit the traditional standard for the unity of man and woman. Everything is to be caught up by father and mother in a family. This world is to gather together in the relative domain of man and woman. A family is the place where the whole of humankind rallies. Therefore, to become one with our parents is to be in relationship with the original subject. The person who wants to completely love and obey his or her parents is connected to God.

What are parents? They are the beings existing the closest to you; they are resultant beings of the Absolute, Who is related to the realm of love and the absolute ideal, and they are the beings who can make the precise relationship with you. Then, what am "I"? "I" am the substantial resultant being who can rally all humankind in front of my parents.

The family is the starting point for realizing God's ideal and actualizing human happiness. It is the place where human responsibility is completed and where God also completes His responsibility.

The sources of happiness and of resentment spread to the nation and the world centering upon your family.

God's desire starts from the family and ends with the family, but we haven't established a family that is pleasing to God. The more we try to be closer to the purpose, the more our present family situation leads us rather to unhappiness and destruction.
