(Here Father responds to a question at the Unification Church in Essen, Germany, on March 26, 1972.) Question: Is Jesus still working with the Holy Spirit? Why should the Holy Spirit be in the mother's position? Jesus has been working with the Holy Spirit for so long, but is the Holy Spirit still working in the mother's position? Answer: It is no longer the age of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, but the age of The True Parents. Now the True Parents are working on earth. Have you ever seen Jesus during your prayer or in a vision. There are many people who have seen me. Those who have seen me during prayer or in a dream, raise your hands. Most of you are supposed to see me. You have to develop this skill. (54-303) Your flesh and spirit are supposed to become one centered on true love, not centered on false love. They cannot become one without your knowing the source of true love. This is very logical. Also, you have to go beyond this level and look forward to receiving heavenly blessings. Are you going to try it? (Yes!) Then all of you can eventually find blessings. Otherwise you could come to the conclusion that there is something wrong with the Divine Principle. Why is it that the more miserable the place you go, the closer you feel to Heaven? Because in such a miserable place, you can forget worldly love and enter the realm of heavenly love. That's why you can feel closer to Heaven. Heaven will appear to you and have a direct relationship with you. You will be in the direct dominion of God. Since you may not be aware of God's presence, I will appear to you in His stead. Do you follow me? You are destined to live in the realm of God's direct dominion. (91:184) What kind of relationship do you have with me? Do you often see me during your prayer or in a dream? You should see me every day. Those who are seeing me every day, raise your hands. Everyone must become like them. All of the Unification Church members throughout the world must have such experiences. You have to know more about the spirit world. You must be able to see me without opening your eyes. Can you do it? There must be someone who can do it. These phenomena are unprecedented in history. No such phenomena will occur in the future, either. Do you want to increase such experiences, or decrease them? You have to increase them. Adam and Eve would have come into in the direct dominion of God if they had not fallen. God would have been involved in whatever they said or did. By the same token, I have to be involved in whatever you say or do, and whenever I find something wrong with you, I have to help you correct it. Do you follow me? (Yes!) If you follow my directions and do everything with more joy and happiness than any dictators who ever conquered the world had felt, you will start experiencing such a mysterious world. I may ask you to do the most difficult things, but if you are determined to do them with more joy than I have, you will surely start experiencing such a world. As long as you are committed to doing your mission, I will coach you in everything. (91:174) You Unification Church members must receive spiritual guidance from me during your prayer or in your dreams. Already many members can receive my spiritual guidance directly, no matter where they go. Wonderful things will occur more often than they did at the time of Jesus. You members need to serve me directly. In the church you will experience from time to time something greater than the people had at the time of Jesus. That's why the world will be able to become one with the Unification Church. We are now facing a life and death situation, so much so that you have to offer desperate prayers. It is not enough for you to pray for only a short time. You have twenty-four hours to pray. It is shameful for you not to have such experiences or serve me directly in such a free age. Blessed couples should have had such experiences and standard. You are supposed to be entitled to the Blessing only after being spiritually engrafted to me. (31:331) Does your mother, your father, your teacher, or anyone you know appear to you during your prayer or in your dream or spiritually and give you spiritual guidance? In the Unification Church I appear to you during your prayer or in a dream or vision and tell you what you should do. You can have such experiences within a few days after you join the church. But you should know that it has become possible only at the cost of various sacrifices over several decades, and on the foundation of the blood and martyrdom of numerous saints. These are such priceless treasures that you cannot buy them even by paying billions of dollars. Do you follow me? (Yes!) (91:177) We often talk about God's love and heart. Where can you find them? In your prayer God will tell you, "Listen to Rev. Moon. Don't make him sad. You should make him happy." That is the best way. God will speak to you like that. If you really want to see me and are willing to sacrifice even your sleep, you can soon open your spirit world. That is the fastest way to open your spirit world. If you do so, then while sitting here you can see what I am doing in the United States. In this way the subject of your faith, which is intangible and vague, could materialize on the horizontal plane. You should know that these experiences will revolutionize the religious world. That's why it is important to attain spiritual awareness. (76:152)
