	Message of Heung Jin Nim from the Spiritual World January 1
		Ancestors who did not see things about others correctly and hurt them will cause their descendants to have children who are born blind, mute or deaf.
		All the sins committed by ancestors are passed down to their descendants; therefore members are pushed to commit sins in spite of themselves.
		The ancestors are very sincere about fulfilling their responsibility to cleanse their descendants’ sins, which, as they learned during the workshop in the spiritual world, were passed down from ancestors like themselves.

	Ancestor Reverence -
		In this modern scientific age it is very difficult for people to accept the fact that they are responsible to their ancestors, that they are actually liable for the actions of their ancestors if the resulting karma has not yet been dissolved.
		Many people venerate all of their ancestors without any problems or hang ups but there are some who find it uncomfortable or they feel bitter about giving veneration to ancestors that have been abusive in some way or another whether emotionally, physically, sexually, and/or verbally.
		While in many cases, it is understandable why someone may not want to venerate an ancestor that has caused harm to him or her or to another loved one, however it is my plea to keep in mind that you must TRY TO forgive.

		The ceremony strangely parallels those held by owners of restaurants who serve eels and other animals: once or twice a year such establishments sponsor rites for the spirits of the animals they have been obliged to kill in order to earn a living.
