Once a woman gives birth to a baby, she comes to know motherly love. The minute her baby cries, she knows what motherly love is. Before that, she does not know. She does not know how valuable the baby is ...

... Let us stop the Hoon Dok reading. I should now conduct some personnel changes before I leave ...

A single person cannot live doing many things at once. If he does so, he ends up going around in all four directions. In that position, you end up remaining in a single place yet detached. That is why you should do only a single thing throughout your life. To work means living your life in a way that you can be supplied with the necessary nutrients in your everyday life. That is the rule. You should follow that rule and have a single task to which you can commit and focus ...

... Am I not 89?

Whom should I entrust the church among my children? Hyung Jin! He has studied a lot. He also asked many questions. He is quite fearsome. Anything he plans he follows through.

He has read many books and studied long hours. He knows a lot about Buddhism. He has really worked hard for seven years.

He can speak English, Italian, French… what eight languages? Was it seven? With that, he can go anywhere and do well if he studies there for a month. I am concerned for his health as he is really working hard in the ministry. Yet, you should not entrust everything to him just because he does it well. You should also support him.

That goes for Korea, Japan and America. America is where he grew up. He is thinking of going to America when has time. He should learn about the relations in America, of foreign countries, and such.

From this time on, all the chain of command will be a single chain of command. The center of the Unification Church is stretched out centering on the world and Korea. I am thinking of entrusting him with what I have done.

I do not think there is anybody among our members who surpasses the standard Hyung Jin has shown in terms of his experience in faith or anything else. Therefore, I am appointing him.

In two years, everybody should be educated and the blessing completed. The women should do this.

Who are these women? Should we just leave them on their own? There isn’t a woman that surpasses Lan Young Moon. She is small but has substance.

I will not be in Korea that often anymore. Once we have the Abel UN….
