Where can unity begin? Unity doesnOt occur in a self-serving position, but rather in a position where the self is serving the whole. This is the way of unity.

In a company, what kind of person will take over the owner's position in the future? The person who works harder than others. He comes ten minutes earlier than others, and works hard to support the company, and leaves even one minute later than others in order to work more. A person with that kind of spirit will become the central figure of the company. It's that simple. If you live by this standard you will become the center.

Centering on this Principle, you must be a public servant on the stage of life. You have to be a public servant. You shouldnOt be self-serving. You must be a person who stands in a public position. If the Unification Church goes like this, no one can stop its development. No one. Even if a nation opposed the Unification Church, that would not stop its development and growth.

Goodness advances whenever it collides with evil. Wherever it goes, it wins. It sounds difficult, but as long as this Principle is not wrong, victory is certain. The person who lives according to this Principle and sacrifices himself for it, will certainly win. The person who does not take his profit for himself but uses it for the bigger purpose of the nation will not perish, even if his nation perishes. If there were an organization that followed this Principle, even if the nation and the world perished, it would not perish. Now you know that Unification Thought, which includes this concept, will not perish.

What is the way of unity? It is to serve others. What about the unification of South and North Korea? Shall we unite according to what Kim Il Sung wants? No. People will willingly receive anything that comes with love. So if you take the position from which you can give forever, then the unification of South and North will take place. This means that if you have a foundation upon which you can give forever, from a higher position than the people of North Korea, then their propaganda will not work. If South Korea stood in a higher position than North Korea in terms of its economy, living standards and knowledge, and could give to the North forever, perfect unity would come about even if you didnOt want it to.

Unification cannot be initiated from a debtor's position. Do you follow? There will be no unification from the debtor's position. The Kingdom of Heaven will not come from the debtor's position. A debtor will never prosper. Until you are able to pay back the interest you owe several times over, there will be no prosperity. The Heavenly Kingdom is the richest of the rich countries. So the Heavenly Kingdom cannot be brought about from a debtor's position. You have to know this.

What are good and evil? Private things are on the side of evil, public things are on the side of goodness. It's that simple. You must know this clearly. What areas are the concern of religion? Religion is concerned with public things. Public life concerns itself with not only the physical world but the spiritual world as well, and is even related to the multi-dimensional world of the Absolute Subject, God.

If you use the nation for your own private purpose, or if you take national property for your personal use or for your family, then the nation will collapse. DonOt you think so? Yes, the nation will perish. National civil servants are public servants. If they take public things for their own personal use, the nation will collapse. Even if the nation doesnOt collapse immediately, sooner or later it will, or God will make it collapse.

Which is more public--the mind or the body? The mind. That's why you have to subjugate your body centered on your mind. DonOt stand in the position of a debtor in your life. Instead, take the position of a giver. DonOt be a one-dimensional giver, but give with God's love. If you become that kind of person you will never perish. If the debtor doesnOt return anything to you, your descendants will be blessed by God.
