3) Characteristics of the Human as an Individual Embodiment of Truth (Individual Truth Body)

Listen all of you, each of your bodies differ, as do your faces. One can smell the difference. That is why a dog can chase a particular smell.

In our church we have a special vocabulary: individual truth body. It may sound strange to you. But I cannot help using it.

The characteristics one has are unique. And one's appearance is also unique.

In the Divine Principle we have a term "individual truth body." The embodiment of each individual is different from his mother's and father's, though he was born by his mother and father. If one had no distinction in nature and in characteristics from one's parents, one would be of no use.

God intended to have many individual truth bodies on earth. We are born as such a unique embodiment.

God's full satisfaction can be realized only when He deals with us individually regardless how great He is, for we are individual truth bodies. In this respect we can see that though people vary, they are equal in freedom and in value.

Now, what if every one of you had the same face; how dull it would be! We would feel disgusted. We are interested in looking at one who has a long and wide face with an unusual nose. That makes the face interesting to behold again and again. For these reasons it is really interesting watching this face, that face... Now, there are many differences in clothing between man and woman even in the same season. And there are many differences in walking, in hands working, in laughing, in voice... Everything is different. Hence, one's individual nature is revealed through this unique embodiment. It is precious.

Just watch one's face. There are four different features in the face: eye, nose, ear and mouth. There are none alike even if we bring four billion faces. This is a secret. It is itself a secret! Don't you think so? In this point of view Heaven, where every unique embodiment delights, and where male and female enter and live, must be a place where everybody's harmonious self appears wholly in the ideal type.
