What should the subject do? The subject has the responsibility to protect. Moreover, he has to determine the position and direction of the environment. After making the determination, he must protect and be responsible for it. (1978. 3. 19) Who is the central figure? He has the responsibility to provide protection and the ability to do it. Suppose that an ugly man was standing in front of a pretty woman, then when he is facing a crisis, is he going to hide inside the armpit of the pretty woman? Think about it. Even a tall and pretty woman, would she hide inside the armpit of the ugly man if she is facing some dangerous situation? Which is the case, you ladies? No matter how tall and beautiful the woman might be, she will hide behind the man. She wants to be protected by him. This is a natural expression and reasonable behavior. The central figure must take responsibility and provide protection. Moreover, the central figure must the lead the movement. He has to guide the way. Isn't this true? Only someone who knows the way can guide it. How can someone who does not lead the way? Suppose a lady has a doctorate degree while a man only graduated from elementary school. Then, when they are climbing a mountain, does the doctor lady walk in the front or does the man with elementary education lead the way? In general, if there are ten men, then all ten will ignore the lady and try to lead the way at the front. Isn't this how it is? The central figure has the responsibility to lead. Toward what? Toward the good place. Who is the central figure of the Unification Church? [True Parents] Don't say True Parents, but say Teacher. It is the same logic. This teacher takes responsibility for everything in the Unification Church, regardless of good or bad. Among the members of the Unification Church there are many who are older than me and better than me, although I am not so unworthy. Only by doing so, I don't doze off. It is easier to doze off when there are many people. From this perspective, you should tell someone both good and bad things right away? If someone does not seek the consultation of others just because he is the leader, he is a fake one. Since the center of the four limbs and all organs is the head, everything must be passed through the head. That which does not pass through it has already lost its life. It has no value in its existence. Therefore, a central figure must: 1. take responsibility, 2. know how to provide protection, and then 3. know how to lead. (173-346) The center is supposed to be responsible for the whole. The center must know how to give everything. The center must take responsibility and know how to protect. (134-317) In the horizontal perspective, husband and wife are on the same level. They are the same when they like each other. However, although they are equal on the horizontal standard, on the vertical standard who is to set the standard for balance? It is not woman, but man. It is man. For this reason, man stands on the right side and the woman stands on the left. The subject must protect the object. He has the responsibility to protect. Then what does he have to do? He has to lead. He must point out the direction which will lead to the right way. So, should wives listen to the words of husbands or not? [They should listen] If the husband behaves like a dog, aware only of the horizontal standard, and believes in himself more than God and thinks that he is absolute, then you do not have to obey him. However, if he listens to his conscience, is concerned about the family, society, and nation, then the wife must try to be in harmony with him. She has to follow her husband. (148-17)
