\It is not only through the vertical standard that a person is known. Neither is it only through the horizontal standard. A person is not known only by his or her words. One's words must be in accordance with one's actions. A person is known for whether he acts according to what he says; according to whether there is a oneness between his mind and his work. One's words should be the same as one's actions. One's mind should be the same as one's work.

This expresses the vertical and horizontal relationship. Confucianism almost represents such relations. The fundamental reason of all things is always the Way of Heaven. \ It means the state and the reason in which the heavenly way is moving. It is the way the heavenly will should go. What is the way? \It is said that benevolence (jen), righteousness, propriety, and wisdom are the cornerstones of human nature, and that the practice of benevolence and righteousness is the way humans should go.

When people walk along the way, the grown-up person goes in front, according to Oriental thought. That is because the grown-up person was born first in the world. \That is how they try to put together the environment. The person born later should stand back. \ These perspectives should not be changeable. These are eternal. Whenever a man would receive something from an older person, according to Korean custom, he should receive it with two hands. This means that only when his hands are completely horizontal will he receive the love of the older person.

\Whatever is received should go from the vertical at an angle of 90 degrees.

It can be said that a person's mind is Heaven's mind. \All rules should be horizontal, since the rules are relative according to reason and conscience, which should be in accordance with each other. However, they are not such that benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom should be accepted and Heaven excluded. They did not connect these virtues with Heaven. Heaven is vague, and benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and knowledge are obscure. Confucianists did not know how to connect these virtues with Heaven. Since they did not know how to do so, the forms for these two realms did not make a realistic standard in the human history, and should fade away. All of you should know this point clearly.

From the view of the Divine Principle, dual characteristics are seen. How could the dual characteristics be connected with me? These are the realistic spheres of relationships. What ideal does the human will desire? It is neither knowledge, power, nor money, but the actual results of love. Therefore, love should mark the relations between sovereign and subject. All relations are love relations. God needs His child. Love marks the relationship between God and His children. One cannot exist by oneself. (185-271, 168-252, 171-237)

Up to the present day, human morality has meant that parents should love their children and children should love their parents, and there should be a distinction between husband and wife. These virtues have been transformed to the present day as the cornerstone of the three fundamental principles and the five moral disciplines in human relations.

However, these seem to be changeable. \Today, the traditional customs and norms and so forth are being changed. Such a spirit is penetrating our daily and social environment. We are in the Last Days. If a worldwide leader, a Messiah, appeared, he would solve all these problems. (11-19)
