Every member of the Unification Church has the experience of being very fond of the church at some time after he or she joined. They would experience the feeling, "I do not know why, but I have this enormous desire to go to the church. I can't resist this desire to go to the church." At times, there were many people who climbed over the walls of the church because the gates were shut. Their craving was to spend a night in the corner of the church. When someone chased them away, they lamented as they went out, and after the gate was shut they climbed over the gate to come in, determined to stay at the cost of their lives. If someone were to beat them to death thinking they thought that they were thieves, then no doubt they would have headed straight toward heaven. We had such times in the past.

Moreover, when they ate meals in the church, they didn't know why, but they felt that the meals were very delicious. Though they were the same as any other ordinary meal and are not enchanted by some ghosts, they were exceptionally delicious. Even soggy and aged kimchi or kak-du-gi (kimchi made out of radishes cut in cubes) tasted special. Why does the meal that one eats in the church taste so good? This is the same as how people say that the meals made by parents who have poured their heart into them taste delicious. Because in that place there is an overflowing feeling of yearning and the reciprocal existence can be substantialized, even bad things seem to be good. Moreover, because this becomes linked to oneself and it emerges with the respective value, things will appear to be good, and even things that taste bad will become something delicious.

This is all a part of the function of the nerves. Isn't this true? We come to taste something that tastes good through the function of our nerves. However, the nervous function of heaven is supernatural. Because it is in the position to combine the whole and govern it, there is nothing bad there. You have to be intoxicated by the grace. The whole world seems like a palace. Even if you are inside a sewage, you will feel as if you are inside a palace. Even when you see maggots playing around, they will appear to be some world class dancers dancing. This is how things will really appear to you.

Although this cannot be felt by the senses and emotions of the people of today, because man has the subjectivity of the supernatural senses and emotions this is how one can feel. So, all that one sees will appear to be objects of delight. Accordingly, we can arrive at the conclusion that there is nothing bad in the spirit world. (36-118)

Don't you want to go to the church again and again when you don't even understand why you feel this way? [Yes] Even if your parents tell you not to go, as soon as you finish your meals you somehow want to go there. Even when you go to school, you cannot concentrate and you feel anxious. If you do not go to the church after your classes are over, it feels as if you have lost something. Have you felt such feelings? [Yes]

Who told you to come here, so that you flock to this place like uninvited guests and we feed you, serve you cola, and provide you a place to rest? Are you guests or owners? If the owners do not treat the guests well, then would the household be blessed or cursed? [Be cursed] Accordingly, I am serving you such fresh meals. I leave my doors open wide and treat you well. Next, what do I treat you with? I treat you with the Word. I hope that after meeting me you can learn the best lessons while you are laughing, feeling delighted, and being cursed at. If you see something that you like even as you are being condemned, don't you feel closest to it? If you like it even when you are being cursed at then there is nothing that is better than that. When I consider various things, it is better for me to speak the Word like this than to take a rest and eat a meal. Because you like it this much even when I do not feed you, I do not feel any grief.
