The past saints have taught that we should respect and serve Heaven and love humanity through the mind. They taught us to love Heaven, earth, and people. Then does your mind have the full capability to contact Heaven? Does it have the full capability to contact all humanity? Does it have the full capability to love the earth? If we analyze the original mind, there is love for Heaven, for earth, and for human beings. This love springs up automatically, no matter how much you try to eliminate it. People have pursued the ideal world and original homeland because they possessed such a mind. Therefore, the original mind starts operating from within me. When you want to understand somebody, you should know his mind, not just his title. (19-285)

When you join the Unification Church, things change. Before, you would always go to school right after you got up and ate, but after you joined the Church, you went to school reluctantly. You want to be at the church as much as possible and want to visit the church on the way to school.

Don't you students have these kinds of thoughts? If you don't have such a heart, you hardly qualify as a Unification Church member.

Also, when you are at home, although everything is there-your parents, good food, nice rooms, and so forth, you are still itching to come to the church. It is a very humble place, but you are happy when you come here and don't want to go back home. Such a feeling comes to you. Don't you have such a feeling? If you don't, then you are a straw man and not a Unification Church member.

Is such a thing felt by the body or the mind? The body prefers being home. You eat better at home. There is nothing but kimchee here.

The kimchee is very old and we don't have large quantities of it. Sometimes you have to eat a whole bowl of rice with only one piece of radish. Still, you find it very delicious and clean up the bowl to the last grain of rice. This is unusual. Why is it like that? Is it because the body likes it or because the mind likes it? It is because the mind likes it. Why does the mind like it? The mind has met the master, so it can find the original hometown and the land of the heart. When somebody sets out for their hometown after working and suffering faraway on a high mountain farm, will he be happy as he leaves the mountains for home? He will be happy. Although he starts out from the countryside, he is happy to go home. The reason is that the mind knows the direction is right. \When the waves are exchanged through the mind's antennae, there is no conflict. From this, power is generated. It is the same principle.
