Before Starting Your Own Family

If you are thinking of creating a family, please consider that health, sexuality, and the soul are core aspects of successful family management. Being self-reliant and learning basic principles and skills to manage these issues is a requirement for family leadership.

Fathers and mothers should be able to take care of most health concerns for themselves and their children, provide guidance on sexuality, and give them teachings that will awaken their passion and life purpose. Such competence should likewise be demonstrable by anyone who intends to lead other “families”—congregations, associations, organizations or groups of any kind whose members rely on their leader for emotional, physical, and spiritual support. Happiness that starts in the family is the path to a healthier society and the foundation of peace for humanity.

Healing and the Family

Over the years, my family members have always viewed me as a healer. I have an educational background in clinical pathology and Oriental Medicine, and I have made deep personal inquiries into a variety of healing methods. I have always had a passion for healing with others. Over the years, I think I simply took it for granted, especially as I built an organization and shared my vision of healing. Nonetheless, the lessons of healing and the family apply to me as well as anyone.

Because my work often involved long hours and much travel, I was unable to spend the time that I would have liked raising and leading my family. Before I knew it, my sons were grown and off to school.
