Hyo Jin Nim

It's an honor for me to be invited to offer my thoughts today. I hope that through my words we can all come to know Hyo Jin Nim a bit better, is what Idedicated my preparations for. We should know who has been taken from us on the physical plane. We should a have good idea.

The first thing to know about Hyo Jin Nim is that knowing him more deeply in his most important aspect is not the fruit of your experiences with him or horizontal shared biography of times you've spent with him or things you've done with him. To know Hyo Jin Nim more deeply is a matter of spiritual growth. This is true about the True Family in general and it's true about every one of its members. In particular only God can reveal to each of uswho Hyo Jin Nim is, and for this it is not too late for any of us.

As he ascends now he remains available for all of us to receive from him what God created him to give. Only after this first step of learning from God who Hyo Jin Nim is then are testimonies and biographical information and data important. Without growing spiritually and without understanding with the help God's revelation to our hearts who the True Family is and who each member of that family is then we can only gain a tiny bit from testimonies.
In these few words I would like to help put light on the path which each of us must walk personally by ourselves.

Whenever a person comes to know better who Hyo Jin Nim is.that person will weep.
Will weep.

Hyo Jin Nim's goodness is not of the sort that we can understand easily. Hyo Jin Nim's greatness is not of the sort we can understand easily. This is because Hyo Jin Nim is not like us. He was not born like us. Hyo Jin Nim is what we hope to become. That is what our path is about, that is what our life of faith is about and as we succeed in our life of faith we will become like Him and we will understand who he was and who He is. And we will better understand who we lost two days ago from here on the physical
plane.
In my few words I would like to touch upon five elements of His life.

He's true,
He is grand,
He is humble,
He is kind,
and through Him roars the power of creation. Those five things.

I'd like to very briefly just touch upon my personal experiences with him.

In the 1990's He began to preach here on this stage. He was full of rage. His language was bad from this stage often times and both of those things stood in the way of some of us understanding Him more deeply. But I was trained in philosophy and theology and as I listened to Him, I was in awe and wonder. What He spoke with no philosophical and theological training was profound beyond measure. I hung onto every word and by the grace of God, foul language or anger did not stand between what He was revealing and
what I heard. By the grace of God, and I thank God that I could be presentto a point of truth, of philosophical and theological genius.

In one of His speeches He spoke about how His son had found a rock on the ground that he liked, and he brought it to Him. And this rock was the most precious thing He had ever received, it was given from His son. Later, a week or so later, or so, I was traveling for my mission and I went to a place where at the gift store they sold polished rocks. So I purchased a little sack a bag of polished rocks. I didn't know Him at all, not at all,never had spoke to him and I came to Him and said "Hyung Nim here's some
rocks you can give back to your boy, they're beautiful rocks" Anyway fromthis I was welcomed and invited into His life.

He would spend almost every night in my tiny little apartment, in which I still live. He'd arrive as mysteriously as my children had fallen asleep and depart mysteriously before they would arise. He'd spend all night in my apartment. He was kind enough to invite me to travel with Him in Japan and hear His concerts. I had the good luck.I had the good luck to have His hand around my throat and His fist in front of my eyes. And I said.there was nothing there to fear.nothing there to fear. In the fullness of His rage
and anger, and I was untouched, and I said "You misunderstand" and the moment melted to nothing. So I'm blessed to have been and know Him as He truly is and not as the surface might deceive us into believing. He named my daughter

I'd like to briefly touch upon these matters.  He is true. Hyo Jin Nim is true. There is not a shred of falsehood in Him, not a shred. There's no deception, no guile, no calculation, no manipulation, none, none.
Search the world, you will not find one like this. It is what every human being longs for, and He was that. He was born that.

True Parents gave the farewell message just
before the procession left to the Won Jeon.

He's grand. The creation.When I say He's grand, He's a being through whom the force of creation passed. The mighty roar, the deafening explosion of creation, coming into being passed through Him. The quiet whisper, the inaudible whisper that makes the world or makes the stream or makes a flower blossom, the unheard passed through Him. In stillness and in roar, creation passed through Him. If He spoke to you, He created you. If He spoke to you, He created you. In His truth and in His grandeur, His grandeur was as loud as a concert in which you could not hear yourself think and it was as quiet
as a word from Him that you couldn't hear and couldn't ask for again. He was the embodiment of the creative force. We can't find that. You can't find that in the world, you can not.

He was humble. It was never ever about Him, never about Him.never. His accomplishments were magnificent and He would not speak of them for a moment. When they were finished they were past. He was kind. he was good and he was caring.
There is one good thing, not about being Unificationists, but being in the world God created, and that good thing is that life is everlasting life iseternal. Hyo Jin Nim is the eldest son of the True Parents. He ascends now and I guess my dominate feeling is. Look Out. Look Out.

Oh, Before I conclude with that, His mission is media. And I believe that Hyo Jin Hyung Nim is the single most despised creature ever born in this world.by Satan. I believe that Satan despised him from the second of his conception and unleashed the full fury of all of Satan's disease, his sickness, his rage, his horrors, and those came against our elder brother, never ceasing ever for a moment. They seared His heart, they shredded His
hopes, they tore at His body.

He was born to be in Eden. He was born to be surrounded by a quiet beauty and from the moment He breathed His first breath all of Satan's historical forces sought to destroy Him and they could not destroy Him, they could not destroy Him because He was a filial son and He was true and He was grand and He was humble. And in fact, Satan never laid a finger on Him, never laid a finger on him. Not one of those things He was born to be was touched and anybody here who has ever sat with Him, ever heard Him, ever been around Him knows that's a fact. He was never arrogant in front of you. He was never false in front of anybody. He has never violated His filial piety. He did not.

Satan lost, he lost a serious battle. And as Hyo Jin Hyung Nim rises todayas we speak, everything He was destined to do is going to happen unabated now. Just get on that wagon, please. Go with Him now, please. Because we are going to see what He was meant to do and meant to be and free to do and free to be. PLEASE, just get on that with Him now. He is rising. The eldest son, the elder son, the position that God never had now stands in Heaven on Father's foundation.

We really have a lot to look forward to. And we have been blessed for everything from Hyo Jin Nim until now and the blessings have not even begunto flow from our brother Hyo Jin Hyung Nim.

Thank you for your time to speak
