We are moving toward a certain point, whether or not we know what it is. Moving or resting, we are going forward. Not just me, but my nation, world, and heaven and earth are moving toward a certain point. This is an undeniable fact. An important question for human beings is where I am going after coming through my whole life.

Religion, philosophy, and history are all mobilized to answer this question. Thus, you cannot deny that you are being captured and pulled by this destiny.

If I have to go, then where does this body want to go? Where do this mind, this life, this heart want to go? Where do my hopes and ideals seek to go? We must go, although we may not be able to solve this question. At the time of death, the body is simply buried in the ground. But are the mind, life, heart, ideal, and hope simply buried away together, too? Will they simply disappear? Without having a clear answer to this question and establishing a clear purpose, happiness cannot be found.

We realize that saints and religious leaders have been fighting to solve the question of where we are going, stopping their footsteps and putting a stop on the moving mind and declining heart. Despite these efforts, however, there has been no one who confidently proclaimed, "My body is going this way, and my mind, heart, life, and ideal are running this way." So all the people and all that exists in heaven and earth must go this way. (8-194)

Then for what are we born, and why do we go on? This cannot be answered without God. Without God, we cannot find the motive. The one who is without a motive can neither reap the fruit of his work nor can his value be recognized. A building is built according to the designer's blueprint. A building that is built without reference to the original blueprint cannot be what it was intended to be by the original designer. (21-100)

Then where should we go? Although we have to put at stake our own lives, we must find a day when we receive God and rejoice in our hearts; a day when our hearts say there is no greater hope. For this we should endure pain, resentment, and mistreatment and transcend this world. If we cannot transcend this world, we will perish with the world. (8-202)

Where, then, are people going? They are going to Heaven. How about angels? They also are going to Heaven. How about your mother and father? They are also going to Heaven. How about your dog? It is not going to hell. At the time of the Korean War, one rich family was trying to escape to the South. They had a dog they had boasted of as being very expensive, but they didn't take it with them; they tied it to the door and said good-bye. Our Unification members should not do such things. Now dogs and all things can follow their masters to the Kingdom of Heaven. (78-336)

Where do people go? They go toward the spiritual world. The spiritual world is like the sea. We are destined to go there. Just as there are different currents in the sea, infinite changes unfold in that world. In the sea, there are many harmonious spectacles not to be found in fresh water. Just as there are many fish families in the sea, there are many new heavenly families in the spirit world. (141-306)
