By birth, every person possesses two contradictory qualities. On the one hand, everyone desires to build a dream world, a world per their ideals, where they can spend their ‘tomorrow’—their future—in joy and peace. However, on the other hand, even if he acquires all sorts of objects of pleasure, every person cannot obtain this desired ideal world of his. Boredom, loss, illness, accidents, and old age are the story of many people in this world. Moreover, finally, every single person has to face the event of death.

Every person is born with the conception of an ideal world deeply embedded in his mind. However, almost everyone dies, taking with him many seemingly beautiful desires unfulfilled before he can obtain his desired world.

In this world, a particular principle prevails. It is the principle of pairs. Here, everything exists in the form of pairs. Everything becomes complete when two of a pair join together. For instance, there are negative and positive particles in the atom. In the world of plants, there are male plants and female plants. Likewise, there are males and females in the world of animals and humans.

This global natural principle can be called the ‘pair principle’. This principle tells us that everything makes itself complete by joining with its pair in this world.

In this universal principle lies the answer to the issue of the nature of this world referred to above. There must be a pair world that complements this present world in the universe. Along with this world, another world must exist; only by getting this other world will the present world complete its being.

In light of the above observation, the reality of the world of the Hereafter can be recognized as true. The world of the Hereafter is that pair-world joining which the present world completes its being. Without joining this pair world, our present world would be as incomplete as all other things in this universe would be without their pairs.

Our world is part of a pair. This world and the world Hereafter form a pair. After accepting this other world in the Hereafter, man’s existence becomes complete. The significance and meaningfulness of everything can now be seen. Everything now falls into place.
