Looking at yourselves, what is your situation? Your minds have made a marriage contract with God and are able to become one with Him. But your body and your environment are in the opposite place. That is, they are in the sphere of the fall. Where did the fall originate? Of course it originated with Adam, but practically speaking it started from the archangel, who was to be an objective being. If Adam as the subject and Eve as his object, had become one, the archangel would be an outside being. (Drawing on the blackboard.) Horizontally, there is the archangel, Eve, and Adam, with God up here. If you look at this vertically, on the bottom is the archangel; on top of him is Eve, then Adam, and then God. You can look at the situation in a vertical way. In yourselves, where do you start to find the origin of becoming one? You do not find it from the mind. You must know this. The mind originally already wants to become one. It is the same as a compass pointing towards the north and south. But when it is supposed to point towards the north and south, it instead points in the opposite way towards south and north. Therefore, your mind always wants to go around. It operates in this way. That is why mind and body are always fighting with each other. Then when thinking about whether the grounds for becoming one with God is in the body or in the mind, we can say that it is in the mind. Because the mind is on the side of God, it is in the environment to become one with Him naturally. But the body has become the domain for Satans temporary residence. It has become the beginning point of evil. Therefore, where is the origin and the motive for Satan to start acting? It is not the mind but the body. The body wants to go the opposite way from the mind. In the place where the body likes to be, you cannot find a way to advance to God. You can find the way to proceed towards God only in the place where the body hates to be. -Rev. Sun Myung Moon August 28, 1971 https://youtube/watch?v=yoiDBxsfcNI
