2) The Origin of the Opening of the Gate of Heaven

These days, I greatly appreciate Mother. Mother had many very deep experiences of the heart during my time in Danbury. Because Mother met me when she was young and innocent, she has had to pass through a course parallel to mine. Because she has lived this way, Mother's standard has been lifted higher and higher. Because of Danbury, True Mother was able to realize much more the value of True Father, and understood how lonely it is for a woman without her husband.

As a result, Father and Mother conducted a ceremony to open the gates of hell and heaven. Now, they cannot be closed. True Parents stand as opposite poles. The poles are vertical, not horizontal. A solution can emerge from the place where the two poles connect. This is where the spirit world and physical world can be connected. On February 1, 1985 at 3 a.m. American time, this standard was established at Danbury and East Garden. With what kind of heart was this done? With God's heart, we have to act so that the force of love can connect us. Do you understand? [Yes.]

Now you know the way for the family. You have to decide whether you will become a brazen leader who will have to stand before God in need of salvation by leaching your position or whether you will go straight up vertically. The way to heaven is the way in which man and woman are united as one. Where does that oneness originate? You have to become one at the polar axis. You become one at the polar axis and must follow that axis. Do you understand what that means? Everyone has to go this family-centered path through the spheres of the tribe, people, nation and world following the principle of indemnity. Everyone has to go through this path because you are in the realm of the fall. (136-47)

On February 1, 1985 at 3 a.m., Mother and I established this condition through special prayer. It cannot be done without effort. From that point, all of the barriers of hell crumbled. So, whoever makes effort on that foundation can enter the heavenly world. Also, if there are good ancestors among your relatives, they will come down to you, and then you can educate them and lead them to the heavenly world. Do you understand?

The way of salvation has been limited to the earth. But now, by opening the gate, the way has been prepared so that good ancestors in spirit world can educate the evil spirits and play the role of savior. (136-187)
