Do you do prayer vigils? Sending up your spirit to the heaven, forgetting all about the secular matters...that state is just reaching the state of sleep. Let's go into even beyond such state. Just as when all the solid remnants sink down only the pure water rises above, sleep means that raising our spirit and precipitating out all evil consciousness by training our mind. When you go into the state of sleep, when you are about to fall asleep, you hear everything and see everything. You hear everything but haven't heard it exactly, and you see everything but haven't seen it exactly. Then what happens? A dream-like phenomenon unfolds. At that time, the spiritual world teaches you something. Do you understand? It all has to fit logically. Do you understand? [Yes.] By doing a prayer vigil, cutting off all that is physical, totally focusing on the spirit and continuously sending it upward, you will begin to see your future path. When that becomes habitual, you enter into a position where you can control everything. If you enter into that state you can see and hear all. You are looking at and hearing two things at one time. To reach such a position requires significant self-training and disciplinary development. (91-275) We came to inherit the satanic blood lineage by the Fall. You have inherited the satanic blood lineage. Therefore, when you move, this blood, the evil blood is moving. Do you understand this? If you put it in the glass container, it is like murky water. It is like dirty, washed-up water. If you sleep, however, things come down since the whole body is resting. It is like heavy things sinking down and clean water emerging upward. Because the original pure mind can make relationship with God, God teaches symbolically or visibly in dreams the way to go. (91-273) You must directly experience the life in which you yourself initiate new things centering on God. If you do activity experiencing such heart, then there always occurs multiplication. Then you develop. A new bud emerges out of a living tree. There, the force of life is always active. In contrast, a tree without its root is a dead tree. When you lose such feeling, please pray putting your life on the line. Even if you have to do many prayer vigils, you must accumulate the sincerest effort. If you try to live such a life, then God may even try to take such times away from you on purpose. If so, then no matter how much you try, you may not find hope. In such a situation, you must be able to fight ever more strongly with the mind that "I will serve God even subjugating Satan into my side." (30-133)
