Purpose of Life: Joy or Avoidance of Pain?

Sun Myung Moon -- 2012

Are we most affected with what we have associated with pain and the unconsciousness we experienced due to it? Or are we driven most, by seeking pleasure and the ecstasy it brought to us?

The Divine Principle says "the purpose of life is to experience joy". However some say, the fastest way to pleasure, is to avoid pain.

True Parents are saying, the true motivator for a human being is actually Joy; the joy that is produced in the context of True Love, the unconditional love, centered on Absolute Sex (base on the foundation of Absolute Faith, Love and Obedience).

The moments we experience the greatest joy is when we we make love to our spouse, or we are embraced skin to skin with our parents or others close to us. Thus, True Parents saying that sexual organs (including skin) being the root of love, life and lineage, comes really alive for us even more.

What motivates us to love life, is to constantly go back to the most pleasurable moment we ever experienced, which is the intimacy we feel in the sexual pleasure from a baby to the rest of our life.

False love as well is rooted in the greatest sexual pleasure we experienced since childhood. However, if the experience of that pleasure was unprincipled it creates a sense of perversion and guilt with it, which misdirects us back to wanting that same unprincipled relationship.

Both true love and false love, being rooted is sexual organs pleasure, are always stronger than any fear of pain or risk involved to become fulfilled. So, the only thing that can restore false love, is a more joyful sexual experience in the context of true love, than the one experienced in the false realm.

Thus if we want to truly cut ourselves from the false love, life and lineage, we need to seek the ultimate pleasure, true love between a man and woman and God centered on the sexual organ.
