Visit to Rome by the International President Hyung Jin Nim and Yeon Ah Nim



On August 24th and 25th the Italian members received the Unification Church World President, Hyung Jin Nim and his wife Yeon Ah Nim. Together with them was Mrs. Choi, vice-president of the WFWP, Dr. Seuk Vice President of the Unification Church, Pres. Song Yong Cheol and his wife, continental director of the European continent, Dr. Thomas Walsh and Taj Hamad of the UPF International and six other brothers, accompanying them. The whole Italian family was so greatful to welcome Hyung Jin Nim, Yeon Ah Nim and elder sister Yeon Ah Nim to Italy. Europe has been waiting for their visit for a long time. Finally the day has arrived. We really felt that True Parents’ was visiting us.
Right after their arrival, Hyung Jin Nim and Yeon Ah Nim visited and prayed at the Holy Ground at the Vatican main square which True Parents had established in August 20th, 1965. The main program was a meeting with members that was held in a Catholic Center called “Better World." Dr. Seuk opened the event with a speech to testify about Hyung Jin Nim’s Cheong Seong. After a video presentation, the continental director Rev. Yong Cheol Song introduced Hyung Jin Nim to the stage who delivered an inspiring speech to the 400 Unificationists and Ambassadors for Peace gathered in the hall filled to its capacity. The content of the speech was aimed to revive our life of faith, by testifying about our belief in a most simple and effective way and by understanding the seven deaths and resurrections of the True Parents.

If we could summarize all Divine Principle content in one sentence we could say: “Inheriting the True Love of God”. Hyung Jin Nim, Yeon Ah Nim and elder sister Yeon Ah Nim received flowers from the participants and right away offered them to True Parents. The National Leader Giuseppe Cali was deeply moved to tears by receiving from Hyung Jin Nim’s couple the necklace with the symbol of the Unification Church as a sign of appreciation for the entire Italian Unification Family. At the end of the Hyung Jin Nim’s speech, he and Yeon Ah Nim took pictures which each of the Blessed Families.
Hyung Jin Nim and Yeon Ah Nim delivered a few other speeches, especially while having meals, encouraging us to challenge the society by witnessing about True Parents directly and openly, by declaring our belonging to the Unification Church, with wisdom and pride at the same time. Other topics were about the standard of the world religions, the need to learn from them what the good points of their beliefs are and by going over that standard following True Parents. We are the ones that should bring all world religions to the common God and True Parents.
The whole party following Hyung Jin Nim’s couple visited several Catholic important places such as: St. Peter's Church and even climbing to the top of the dome, St. Paul's Church where the Christian saint is buried, St. John's Church, the former Holy Sea, passing by the Coliseum, Fori Imperiali, Circo Massimo and some of the main archeological sites of Rome.
What was particularly interesting to everybody was the incredible artistic development that in the history the Christian faith could bring to glorify God, even though many times it was found to be a little “too external” or not corresponding to real faith and true love standard, that was supposed to be lived by Jesus disciples. The most interesting and spiritual experience was in the “Holy Stairs” church. Hyung Jin Nim and Yeon Ah Nim leaded all of us, their party, plus the Italian National leaders and the few Italian brothers and sisters supporting the tour, in climbing the stair on their knees, a tradition that is meant to repent in front of God and Jesus for our sins and find forgiveness. Hyung Jin Nim's speech, right on the spot was “When we feel pain, we understand what Jesus and True Parents have gone through. So we understand that we cannot complain or stop because of this. If we don’t focus on the internal meaning, easily our body becomes the subject and we cannot continue. This a good training for mind and body unity and a test of the strength of our faith”
Finally on the last evening Hyung Jin Nim, Yeon Ah Nim and all the party visited a blessed family's home, the Natale family, and they were able to spend a very meaningful and joyful time together. Hyung Jin Nim wrote a calligraphy for them.

We, Italian members feel very privileged to have received our International President and all the world level leaders. For a couple of days we experienced to be the center of the world, having True Parents inheritor and most of the main world leaders with us. They left us with lot of inspiration and providential determination and we are very grateful to God, True Parents and to of all them for the care we received through them from Heaven.

Hyung Jin Nim Shares His Vision in Germany



After arriving at the Frankfurt airport from Paris on the afternoon of August 27, Hyung Jin Nim and his party, including his wife Yeon Ah Nim, and elder sister Yeon Ah Nim (Choi), wife of the ascended Hyo Jin Moon, Dr. Thomas Walsh and Tajeddin Hamad from UPF-International, and Rev. and Mrs. Song, went to the Holy Ground at the Gruneburg Park. They were welcomed at the airport by the Schmidt family, the Hausmann family and the Piepenburg family together with a small delegation from the Frankfurt community. The Holy Ground in Frankfurt was established on July 29, 1965 by True Father himself, when he established Holy Grounds all over Europe and the Middle East. Some 20 members of the Frankfurt congregation had been waiting there to give them a warm welcome.
We then travelled to a village near Giessen to visit the family of Seppo and Brigitte Makkonen, who had been picked by lottery. Soon a lively discussion was going on between the Makkonen family and the three guests of honor. Hyung Jin Nim began to share freely about his vision to challenge atheism and secularism. He then asked each member of the family to explain three blessings or positive points about the other family members. This became a very deep and intimate sharing of how each one of the family appreciates the other, moving people to tears. Everybody was impressed by the spirit of openness; honesty and brotherly support which Hyung Jin Nim and Yeon Ah Nim were carrying into the home of this chosen family. He also explained about the three stages of filial piety and said, while he is the son of True Father, he still feels he is in the position of a servant as well, especially when it comes to providentially important decisions and mandates. At around 8:30 PM, after staying there for nearly 3 hours, the party left for the Neumuehle training center near Bad Camberg, where they would stay for the following two days.
Saturday, August 28th 
As he does every day, Hyung Jin Nim started the day at 3:00 o’clock in the morning with his morning mediation. He was joined by his party and a part of the German trinity. Also present were some 120 young people from the “Original Divine Principle - Plus” Workshop. This was followed by Hoon Dok Hwe at 5:00 a.m., when all workshop members were reading from Father’s Autobiography sentence by sentence.
Saturday was the day for visiting religious sites. We went to the Wartburg and enjoyed an exclusive tour through the castle, walking on the footsteps of Elisabeth of Thuringia. Elisabeth came to the Wartburg Castle from Hungary at the age of 4 as the future wife of the prince. She invested her life and wealth totally for the poor and the sick, even after her husband had died on a crusade. She died at the young age of 24, leaving behind three children, and was canonized by the Catholic Church shortly afterwards.
The other prominent religious figure in the Wartburg was Martin Luther. After being outlawed by Emperor Charles V, Luther was protectd by his friend Count Friedrich and brought to the Wartburg. There Luther translated the New Testament into German in only 10 months.
Hyung Jin Nim recognized the fact that the Wartburg is an early place of ecumenism, since a Catholic saint as well as the founder of Protestantism was living under the same roof and are both remembered there.
After a quick lunch at the “Kartoffelhaus” in Eisenach, the party went to the former Concentration Camp of Buchenwald near Weimar. The visit to Buchenwald was made on the specific request of Hyung Jin Nim. During the time of the Hitler’s Nazi regime, some 56,000 inmates died there of overwork and malnutrition. We all gathered at the main place, forming a semi circle, and had a deep unison prayer for the many people who suffered at the hands of the SS-men and died. Hyung Jin Nim later shared with us his thoughts about the causes of such deplorable human behavior. It rests on a morality based on atheism which made it possible that the young SS members could behave so inhumanely against their fellow men. In fact one condition for the young SS recruits was not to belong to any church. Elder Yeon Ah Nim (Choi) later remarked that she is always amazed how God, despite the vileness and corruption of men, continues to work His providence of salvation and continues to believe in the successful conclusion of the providence of salvation.
On the way back to Camberg, Hyung Jin Nim sat in the car together with Dieter Schmidt, Christian Hausmann and Fritz Piepenburg. Throughout the 3 hour drive, he shared about his ideas and vision to renew the Korean church and the worldwide church. However he also listened to our questions and both he and Yeon Ah Nim gave answers in a lively discussion. One of his points of emphasis was the need for deep faith, if we want to become successful in witnessing. He specifically lauded the Japanese brothers and sisters, who are exemplary in their life of faith and dedication.
Sunday, August 29th 
The day started at 3 a.m. with one and a half hours of meditation, which Hyung Jin Nim developed based on the Unification Church symbol. This time members from all over Germany, but mainly from the Frankfurt community, were given the chance to experience his way of meditating and exercising. At 5 a.m. we continued reading Father’s autobiography and then Hyung Jin Nim began speaking mainly to the workshop participants, who had rejoined them. He explained how, from an intellectual and philosophical viewpoint, the theistic viewpoint of the world is actually more plausible than the atheistic viewpoint. This lecture will be transcribed and translated, especially for our 2nd generation, who are sometimes overwhelmed by the reasoning of atheism and secularism. Hyung Jin Nim plans to train a number of Korean CARP members in the art of debating and arguing and then have public debates in universities and other places.
The highlight of the day, of course, was the main event held in the City Hall of Limburg. The seating was originally planned for 900 people, but soon it became clear that attendance would reach over 1000 people. An additional side hall had to be opened to accommodate the 1200 people who finally entered, among them some 450 from neighboring countries. Following a beautiful performance by two 2nd gen. music bands and a choir of over 40 members, Dieter Schmidt greeted Hyung Jin Nim, followed by an introduction from Pres. Song. When Hyung Jin Nim came on the stage, he quickly won the heart of the audience with his humble and unpretentious appearance. He then gave a well received sermon on the power of prayer and the spirituality of the world religions, who all seek to reconnect man with God. But only the Principle of the Unification Church has the logic and power to satisfy the many questions on the mind of man since centuries past. Right after the sermon, some 300 pictures were taken of various groups of people and all families present. This happened in a record time of less than 2 hours. All throughout this time, Hyung Jin Nim, Yeon Ah Nim and elder Yeon Ah Nim (Choi) received the families with a big smile, jovially talking to each one of them.
After a quick Sushi lunch, the party left for the city of Frankfurt, where they briefly relaxed at a Starbucks coffee shop. Then at the airport, Hyung Jin Nim again talked to the German leaders, sharing his vision about the completion stage level Cheon-bok Gung and how all the major religions will receive their holy place in it. A new Christmas will be celebrated each year, which is True Parents birthday, when pilgrims from all faiths and traditions will come, bring soil from their holy grounds and share in a big celebration of mixing the soil and giving out the mixture to the attending religious leaders to take back with them. He also wants to study the world’s religious scriptures in their very own original languages to deeply understand the spirituality behind each religion.
Those were some very intense and busy two and a half days. But people joining the great event on Sunday morning could gain much from it and, most importantly, get to know the international President of the Unification Church in a very intimate and personal environment.

International President Hyung Jin Nim Visits Unificationists in France



On Thursday August 26, 2010
, we were blessed to receive a surprise visit to France from Hyung Jin Nim, President of the Unification Church International and his wife, Yeon Ah Nim, together with Yeon Ah Nim (Choi), the wife of Hyo Jin Nim (ascended in 2008), WFWP-Vice President and their party.
Their main motivation was to visit the family of Tony Yuen, a second generation member who recently went to the spiritual world and Tiffanie MALDONADO, who is still in the hospital in Lille (due to a traffic accident).

Hyung Jin Nim and his party arrived in Paris at 9:30 a.m. from Italy. They went directly to visit the house of the Yuen family in the South of Paris. There, he gave a very deep testimony on how the passing to the spiritual world of his elder brother Young Jin Nim changed his life completely only a few years ago. He asked the Yuen parents, Jacky and Emiko, to list three good points about each other and about each of their children. He explained that in a Blessed Family, True Parents are the roots, the parents are the trunk, and the children are the branches. Each branch must receive nourishment from the roots and the trunk. He explained that the moments a child will remember the most are the moments that he or she spent personally with his or her parents. So he asked the parents to spend at least one hour per week personally with one child on turn, in a place that would please both the child and the parents, and afterwards have one meeting together  as a couple. During this meeting, they can discuss what the child wants his parents to pray for, and for what the parents want the child to pray for. He asked them immediately to plan the first meetings, and he also suggested that the mother keeps a diary of the content of these meetings for each child, and that she gives this diary to the child at the moment of his or her Blessing.
After a quick lunch, they went by train to Lille, which is 250 kms to the North of France, to visit Tiffanie Maldonado, who is still hospitalized. Only two people a day have the possibility to visit her for a short time. So only they could go to her room and pray for her. When Tiffanie saw Hyung Jin Nim she smiled and said that she was very happy and moved. He said that it was a miracle. They held hands and prayed together. He assured her that True Parents were praying for her. Before they left, Yeon Ah Nim gave a kiss to Tiffanie. Afterwards, Hyung Jin Nim spoke very deeply with her parents in the waiting room. The Northern French community welcomed Hyung Jin Nim and his party very warmly.

They came back directly to Paris at 7 p.m., and visited the Holy Ground, near the Eiffel Tower, where they prayed very deeply.

During dinner they shared several pieces of advice and went to the Training Center for the night.

On Friday, August 27, 2010, Hyung Jin Nim guided the morning meditation at 3 a.m. Afterwards, more than 120 members gathered at 5 a.m. for Hoon Dok Hwe during which Hyung Jin Nim spoke about the importance of prayer life. Each family had a chance to take a photo with Hyung Jin Nim’s couple and Yeon Ah Nim (Choi). He then he drew a beautiful calligraphy for us before his departure at 7 am.

On the way to the airport, he stopped again to pray at the Holy Ground in Paris. Then, from the car, we quickly showed him the Invalides, the Champs-Elysées, the Arch de Triumph and the Palais des Congrès where the Little Angels will perform on September 10.

Then they departed to Germany. We are very grateful for this quick visit, during which Hyung Jin Nim invested so much and gave us so much guidance to help our movement develop.

Meditation(Teachings of Sun Myung Moon)

Meditation(Teachings of Sun Myung Moon)

by Taekon Lee on Wednesday, September 1, 2010 at 7:10am
As you become one with all beings, what phenomena will occur? You will feel something multidimensional that you have never felt before. It will come mysteriously…
Once you enter the door to your mind, you will have intuitions and premonitions. Maybe as you walk down the street you see a bird flying. All of sudden, you feel the door to your mind opening. You do not realize what is happening, but suddenly you receive a heavenly inspiration that teaches you some lesson. Maybe the inspiration will hit you when you hear someone talking. The more you practice, the more often you will experience such incidents.
The next stage is to enter a dream-like state, not a dream in deep sleep but a state half dreaming and half waking. The Apostle Paul experienced three levels of heaven in that state, when he did not know whether it was a dream or reality…
Do not let such experiences pass casually. Collect them, analyze them logically, and figure out the direction that God is leading you. Keep a record of your experiences every day and you will see that your most unforgettable visions actually came true; their predictions were one hundred percent accurate.
Maybe in that dream-like state you were talking with someone about certain things, and later on you actually talk with that person and the things you discussed actually happen. Maybe in your dream you and a friend were singing a certain song. Later on that person actually sings it. Such phenomena can take place. What do they mean? You entered a spiritual realm, and there your mind was resonating with everything in that realm. Your mind was like a tuning fork, resonating with the vibrations of the cosmos. If you have such an experience, treasure it as precious…
Where does God appear to us? Not in the sky, but in the [original] mind. For this reason, we know that our self and our original mind are two different entities. If you do not feel it, it is because your original mind has not fully established its existence. Being often dragged about by the body, it cannot stand. Therefore, once your mind is established in its existence and subjectivity, things will change.
Once you reach a higher state, during prayer you can communicate with your original mind. Your prayer will resonate with your mind, and you will hear yourself in your mind. At this stage you will receive messages or warnings about events in your daily life. Religious people should keep a record of these experiences.
Whenever you relate with someone, do not be careless or indifferent. Think, “What can this person teach me?” Have a hungry mind, eager to learn something new from him or her. Also, you should discern right away whether to relate to him or her as your subject partner or as your object partner… Then your mind will be happy and will be automatically attracted to that person.
This is due to the influence of mind waves. Do you believe that every mind emits mind waves? When you meet a butcher, don’t you smell meat? When you meet a fabric merchant, don’t you smell fabric? Just as you can smell a person’s unique body odor, you can also smell the mind’s odor. Such phenomena happen.
In our body, we have a special sense which strives to reach out to everything. It sends out invisible energy waves to locate its object partners. It is true. Even if our mind wants to go its own way, it cannot. As the pole of a magnet is attracted to the opposite pole, minus is attracted to plus, and plus is attracted to minus.
Therefore, the attitude of believers should be that all beings are related to us. Why? Due to the Human Fall we lost all relationships—with God, among human beings and with nature, all were entirely severed. In order for us to reconnect our relationships, we should always strive to make these connections ourselves. If we do not have the attitude to make connections with others, we cannot improve the environment in which we live.
For this reason, you should all have a mind to anticipate new things. When praying in the morning, you should feel, “Today, something good will happen.” But do not just think that good things will just happen. You have to seek for them. This attitude of seeking should be your life of faith. Experience and continual practice bring relationships to life. Yet it all stems from cultivating a dream-like state in meditation.
(76:129-133, February 2, 1975)

Sometimes we hold all-night prayer vigils, focusing on God and leaving all worldly matters aside. We do not sleep, but try to enter a state beyond sleep. As we cultivate the mind and repress our consciousness, remnants of our flesh mind sink down and our spirit rises to the surface like pure water.
Then although we are tired, we reach a state beyond sleep—a state where we are half sleeping and half awake. We can hear sounds, but not precisely; we can see things, but not clearly. Dream-like phenomena unfold, and God can instruct us.
We hold prayer vigils to disconnect from carnal desires and unify the spirit. Your spirit will be elevated to the point where God may give you a glimpse of your future. After many of these vigils, you will arrive at a state where in prayer you see visions and hear voices. Your eyes see events both spiritual and earthly; your ears hear sounds both spiritual and earthly. Then you can direct events in the spirit world and on earth.
(91:275, February 27, 1977)

At the next level, we can receive oral directions or symbolic visions. Visions require careful analysis. Directions are directly given, but visions require interpretation, and this is where we meet with problems. Heaven often teaches us by words, but sometimes it is through a vision. For example, you have a vision of a beautiful spring-like day; a pair of deer drinks at a stream and then looks far off at the mountains. That vision is a very good sign, and you can expect that something good will happen.
This is not a coincidence. God is working to cultivate the field of your mind. Why so? The field of your mind is not flat like glass. It is rough and uneven. It may appear flat, but look closer and you see that its surface is rough. When the light of Heaven hits a rough surface, it is not reflected, but scatters in all directions. That is why revelations are received and interpreted differently. Therefore, to properly discern Heaven’s guidance, we need to cultivate the various aspects of our mind, piece by piece. This requires our effort.
Beyond the stage of revelations as oral directions or symbolic visions, we arrive at the stage of direct revelations in silence. Like John in the Book of Revelation, you can have spiritual experiences all day long, journeying into the other world and exploring its mysteries. Eventually, everyone is to be connected to the spirit world, reaching the realm of God’s heart and feelings.
Unless you experience such things in your life of faith, you cannot carry out God’s great Will on the stage of your own life. Therefore, I do not trust believers who have not had actual spiritual experiences. Please understand how important it is for you to have these spiritual experiences for cultivating your life of faith…
God works when you pray, sending His spiritual power like electricity. But since this high-voltage energy is stronger than your consciousness, it will lift your consciousness to feel the supernatural.
However, when supernatural and divine emotions come inside you, your body, imbedded with fallen nature, rebels against God’s original divinity. Fallen people do not naturally harmonize with God’s divine energy, no matter how strongly it tries to penetrate. As a result, the energy does not
come all at once. Like alternating plus and minus energies, like a spreading sound wave that is sometimes strong and sometimes gentle, the energy comes as a series of vibrations. They overwhelm your conscious mind and display their spiritual power. That is how God performs His work.
When God is working with you all the time like this, what happens? Your body-centered fallen nature is gradually purified, and eventually it will accept God’s indwelling activity naturally and 100 percent. Then, when God ceases sending His spiritual power in this way, your own spirituality will exceed God’s work in you. At that point God will be with you, and He will teach you without your realizing it.
You should reach this level of total purification, after going through all these stages: the dreamlike state, oral directions, revelations, and so on. At this level, your mind will fully direct you. You may want to chastise someone, but your mind will stop you. You may want to say something sweet, but instead you say words of admonishment. Such phenomena can seem incomprehensible. You need to learn how to adjust to them, otherwise, you could be regarded as an insane person.
You must absolutely experience something like this in your life of faith. People who experience these things in their life of faith, always testing and experimenting, will become strong. They have first-hand knowledge and do not need to believe what others tell them. Experience and practice are the most necessary elements in our life of faith.
(76:133-136, February 2, 1975)
In the mind there is a door, called the door to the mind. God enters through that door. That door does not open only to one direction. Since the mind is in motion, the door is also in motion. For God (plus) to enter through this door, we should relate to Him as a minus (object partner). Yet if our direction is slightly off, even by just a degree, the door will not open.
There indeed exists a door to the mind of each human being. You can discern it in your prayers. The feeling you get when you pray changes depending upon the time of day. Praying at 1:00 a.m. has a different feeling than praying at 3:00 a.m. Try it yourself, and you will sense the difference. If you pray in a deep mysterious state, you will feel different depending upon what time you are praying. The feelings of your prayers in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening are all different.
The same is with the state of our mind. Our emotions change with the seasons, our feelings towards our loved ones change; in such ways the world of the mind is constantly changing. That is why we need to discover the best time to pray. You need to pray when your spiritual senses are keen, so your sensitivity to God will be high. As you enter deeper and deeper into a state of feeling connected to God, you will eventually reach the door to the mind.
The door to your mind connects with the door to God’s mind. Once it opens, the way unfolds to experience God’s feelings.
What should you do to enter such a state? You should cultivate your mind. First, examine the state of your mind. It was originally to be at the zero point, but because of the Fall its direction has deviated by 180 degrees. Although your mind is supposed to rest at the zero point, because of the Fall it behaves randomly and unpredictably. Your first task is to return it to the original point.
Since we are 180 degrees opposite the zero point, we should struggle to turn around in a clockwise direction. As we move in this direction seeking the zero point, we will feel a minus-like sensation. Nevertheless, most people are inclined to go counterclockwise. Yet going in that direction they will not succeed, even if they continue for a thousand years. Everyone must return to the zero point…
If your mind is deviated from the path by a certain angle, you should adjust your mind’s direction by the opposite angle and return it to the proper course… Each of us has a good mind and an evil mind. You may think that your mind is always good, it is not so. As a result of the Fall, human beings are contaminated by Satan’s realm of evil minds. We struggle to remain in the realm of good minds.
For this reason, what is most important is to find the zero point and reach the door to the mind. Learning how to do this is crucial in our life of faith. Therefore, you should learn to discern when is the right moment to open the door to your mind and how to match it to the door of God’s mind.
(76:127-129, February 2, 1975)

We need training in the way we think and the way we use our mind. Meditation and prayer are methods for cultivating the mind.
(67:178, June 10, 1973)

Zen meditation brings your mind to a level place on the horizontal line. There you lose consciousness of self. Consciousness is formed through resonance; in that horizontal state it can resonate with wavelengths coming from the vertical world. (296:203, November 9, 1998)

When we pray or meditate, as when Buddhists practice Zen, we are seeking a state that is void of self. What is our goal in seeking this state? It is to awaken the elements that can become the nucleus of the mind. If you set that one standard and establish the center of your mind, you will see, hear and cognize everything in accord with the principles of Heaven. Then you can offer a full bow before God and return Him glory.
(2:193, May 19, 1957)

We seek the deep ravine of the world of mind. Buddhists who meditate also ask, “What is mind?” and enter the deep ravine of the mind. When you enter the deep ravine of the mind and journey to the state of the original mind before the Human Fall, you will be connected to Heaven. Indeed, without entering the world of the mind, you cannot make a relationship with Heaven.
As long as we are holding on to the world, we cannot contact or attend Heaven. Human beings are composed of mind and body, yet because spirit and flesh are in opposition, we are unable to attain the original world of the mind in a state of mind-body unity. Instead, the journey to the world of the mind requires that we deny the world of body—deny it one hundred percent. We have to remove all that the body desires and isolate ourselves from the world. We have to separate from the world and put it behind us. This is the religious path; it is opposite the ways of the world. It seeks that original point to which we should return.
(21:37-38, September 1, 1968)

Make your mind taut like a round air-filled balloon. If you are insecure or self-centered, or if you are approaching things from a personal viewpoint, then your mind is not round but wrinkled and jagged. Therefore, you need to stretch your mind and make it round.
When your mind rolls like a ball, it makes smooth contact with a flat plane. But if it is jagged, only the points make contact. In that case, it will not smoothly stimulate anything but will act against everything. That is when we feel conscience-stricken, and if we continue this way gradually the standard of our conscience will decline.
Therefore, you need to keep your mind taut like a round balloon. Then upon receiving a stimulus, the whole of it will resonate. Take two tuning forks and strike one; the other will vibrate with the same frequency. A well-rounded mind makes a good resonating vessel. It has the sensitivity to feel the spiritual vibration coming from the Subject Being. Therefore, when living a life of faith, you need to take time to meditate. Meditate while longing for goodness. When you meditate, open the door of your mind completely and make your mind round.
Then, God’s original nature and your original nature will resonate together. The individual qualities of your mind [e.g., your spring-like personality] will resonate completely with those same qualities of God, uniting you in a complete relationship with the Subject Being. In that state, when you go out to pursue your desired purpose, God will certainly be with you.
(40:278, February 7, 1971)
