5. IN ORDER TO EXIST

When we look around the world of all things, we can find that plant and animal species are composed of reciprocal relationships, that they contain of male and female elements. There are male and female aspects in all trees. There are male and female aspects in each flower According to this principle, without any exception reciprocal relationships also exist in the world of birds, animals and even human beings.

Then, why should they have such a reciprocal relationship? [In order for them to give and receive True Love] Why do you need it in giving and receiving True Love? Why do you need a partner? Nobody has known such a simple fact yet. People speak of a give-and-take action, a principle, a harmony etc. ... but don't know about the most simple and important point. What is that? The point is for them to exist, to survive and to connect to history.

But for reciprocal relationships there wouldn't be the worlds of plant, animal and human beings. There would be nothing at all. One ought to leave a seed, especially, a good seed. Then, how can we leave a good seed? We can say that one needs a good seed and a good fiancee. When you ask all men, what will their answer be like? They all will make the same answer, "I want a good fiancee." Why? It is because they want to leave a better seed. That's why one needs a good partner. That's the conclusion. Do you agree with me? Probably you have never thought of it until I told you this. From this point of view, when you are asked what was the purpose of God creating Adam and Eve, what answer can you make? Do you answer, "In order to make them love each other and make them a couple," or do you answer, "In order to leave a good seed"? Which?

For what do you love someone or something? [Happiness] What is the result of love? It is the children. Then, what are the children? The children are the beings to continue to exist. In other words, if they are the resultant beings for existence. Then, why do you need a fiancee? You may think in your mind that it is because of love. That may be right. But what is higher level than that? It is children. The result of love is children. A father cannot but love his children. Why is this? It is just because his children are resulted from his love with his counterpart. This is logical. (118-285)
