Introduction to Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon

Dear respected elders. 
Beloved brothers and sisters. We gather today absolutely centered on our Heavenly Parent and our Beloved True Parents.

Thank you very much for joining this special program in honor of the 50 year history of our movement here in Europe. I am deeply moved and honored to be here with you today to celebrate this treasured legacy.

I have the daunting task of introducing True Mother. How does one even begin? Never in the history of humankind has there ever been a more beautiful, loving, gracious, and compassionate being on earth. True Father has said on many occasions how True Mother’s eternal beauty resides in her loving, faithful and generous heart. He also proudly and lovingly praised her often for her grace, her kindness, and her stunning feminine beauty that brought so much joy to us all.

When I reflect on women throughout history, there is no one that compare with True Mother when it comes to internal and external character. She is without peer. Some may point to Helen of Troy whose mythic beauty caused men to lust and fight. However, if that is the standard for beauty it is a sad role model.

True Mother is far removed from such a worldly standard. She sets a standard for true and eternal beauty, as the embodiment of true love Such true love has the capacity to melt the hearts of humankind, inspiring us to love one another and build a world of peace, joy and prosperity for all of God’s children.

Apart from her physical beauty and elegance, True Mother’s internal value and significance are infinitely great. Thus, we stand here today in the presence of the greatest woman in the history of all humankind. We stand here together attending the absolute example of a true person, who has completed everything. She, in complete unity with our True Father, has given us all true love, true life and true lineage. She absolutely attended True Father for more than 52 years with absolute love, absolute faith and absolute obedience. She is the only woman to ever completely fulfill the course of restoration for all womankind. She is absolutely and completely victorious. Together with our beloved True Father, she has liberated all of humankind to receive the holy blessing. They have lit the path for all to achieve salvation and peace.

We stand today in the presence of our Heavenly Parent’s true daughter, a gift of grace, true love, and goodness. She is the absolute standard of a true filial daughter of our Heavenly Parent.

As you know, True Mother is my physical mother, and of course she is the physical mother of my 13 other siblings. However, even more importantly, she is our True Mother and, in this respect, she is our source of salvation, our guiding light, our guru, and our queen leading us out of darkness, suffering and indemnity, to a world of everlasting peace, true love, and prosperity for all. She is my beloved mother and she is our precious True Mother.

May we emulate, honor, and uphold True Parents’ beautiful legacy as true filial sons and daughters of our True Parents.

True Mother taught me two expressions that can lead us to true salvation and joy. These are “Kamsahamnida” and “Salanghamnida.” They mean “thank you” and “I love you” in Korean. She said if there is anything we want to teach the future generations, it is to live life with this kind of grateful and loving heart. I love you and I am eternally grateful to True Mother and all of you here today celebrating this historic event.

Before I say more about True Mother I want to express my deep appreciation to each and every one of you. You, especially the elder members, have lived lives of faithful attendance to True Parents. You have followed in their footsteps and helped pave the way for us to stand today on this victorious foundation in Europe. Even though you often faced prejudice, persecution and opposition you have been victorious with absolute faith, love and obedience. I am eternally grateful and honored to be here together with you and to be part of this tour with True Mother. I pray that our Heavenly Parent and our True Father may eternally bless you and your precious families.

As you know, True Mother appointed me as the International President of FFWPU. I know that my foundation is not enough for me to stand in this position.

I love True Mother with all my heart and never expected to take on any major leadership responsibility. Nevertheless, when she appointed me, I could not say “no” to True Mother. For too long, I have witnessed her lonely, silent and suffering course over many years. I cannot simply withdraw. I have to become a person who can stand and help carry our True Parent’s burden. For, I know the burden she must carry on a daily basis, especially since the time of True Father’s ascension. I want to do everything I can to serve our True Mother. Perhaps that is my only qualification for this mission.

But every day in my heart I feel truly sorry to True Parents because I am lacking in many ways. In those moments of doubt I return to the word and to True Parents, and it gives me strength and inspiration.

I will do my best to serve our True Mother, and I will continue to pray and hope you can all join us as one united family, furthering the completion of this glorious providence of Cheon Il Guk.

True Mother
I stand before you today with a feeling of deep gratitude and appreciation for our True Mother. Only when we understand our true origin, the beginning of all true life, can we inherit and carry out our duty as filial sons and daughters in honor of our True Parents. Therefore, we must know our true history of true love, true life and true lineage. We must become absolutely one with True Parents and with their sacred words, so that we never lose our way. True Mother distilled volumes of texts to bring us a clearer more purified word, in the three holy texts. In Cham Bumo Gyeong we can gain so much deep insight about our True Parents and, on that basis, we can sincerely emulate their glorious lives. I just want to share some of that amazing history with you.

Our True Mother has lived her life with a clear vertical attendance to our Heavenly Parent throughout her life.

Her attention to Heavenly Parent’s providential will has been the constant thread that runs throughout her life. Prior to meeting our True Father, True Mother was nurtured and protected by heaven. Dae Mo Nim raised True Mother as the only begotten daughter of God, and not as simply her physical daughter. Dae Mo Nim had received guidance from Heaven telling her that True Mother was to be the bride of the messiah.

Heaven protected our True Mother during the most horrible circumstances, such as the time of Japanese occupation and the rise of North Korean communism, culminating in the Korean War. So many times she could have been killed or prevented from going forward, but she remained under Heaven’s protection.

Then, miracle of miracles, she met True Father. Think about it. True Mother was just a young girl of 16. How could she possibly have had the external wisdom and maturity to enter into this relationship at such a young age? Knowing True Father’s position, we cannot begin to imagine that his Blessing with True Mother was some accident; rather, she is our miracle. It was heavenly destiny, and vertical duty that guided True Mother.

From 1960, True Mother lived day and night with True Father, for over 52 years. Can you imagine living one day with True Father? I heard from many leaders who told me that when Father visited their nation, they could never rest for a moment, and when he departed, they would collapse with exhaustion. While they loved True Father, they also quietly welcomed his departure so they could recover their health.

Just imagine True Mother’s situation, in attending True Father without any break over 52 years. When I asked True Mother how she survived and gracefully endured her history of indemnity, she said in her heart and in her soul she always knew her mission; it wasn’t taught to her by any elder. She knew her inner voice. It was Heavenly Parent’s voice and she completely followed it no matter what. It wasn’t until I was writing this speech that I understood I am in the presence of a woman who has divinely mastered her mind-body relationship, and fully developed her conscience. She bases every decision on her true love for our Heavenly Parent, her true love for True Father, and her true love for all beings on earth and beyond. I am always in awe of our True Mother.

We are so blessed to have our True Mother. She is still young and strong. Her health is improving day by day as she keeps a strict schedule of exercise. Her mantra of living for the sake of others, LFSO, includes the goal-set to live Longer, Faster, Stronger, and Onward! Even though I am decades younger than TM, I find it hard to keep up with her divine constitution.

I completely bow down and respect True Mother. She has the full authority of True Parents, the authority of True Father. They are completely one, indivisible.

Neither Heavenly Parent nor True Father could fulfill the providence of True Parents without True Mother fulfilling her own portion of responsibility.

I am entirely indebted to True Mother. It is due to her amazing life and sacrifice that any of us, the True Children, could be born. But as her physical children we must study with even more sincerity about our true origin, and unite completely with our True Parents. Only in this way can we fulfill our mission as their true filial sons and daughters.

I will do my very best to attend and serve our True Mother. I believe this is the very best way we can honor True Father’s legacy, and the legacy you are building in your own lives.

Each one of us is here today because of True Parents; they are our absolute origin. Our marriages, our families, our understanding of God’s providence, and even our achievements in life are all indebted to the life, love and sacrifice of True Parents.

True Mother has come to Europe to express her deep love and appreciation to each one of you, and to guide us in the way we must go to fulfill our portion of responsibility, and achieve all that Heavenly Parent and True Parents have hoped for, a nation of cosmic peace and unity, Cheon Il Guk. We are blessed to be in her presence and have this precious opportunity receive her message today.

Therefore, brothers and sisters, it gives me great honor to invite you all to rise at this time and give a warm, loving and powerful European welcome to our True Mother, Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon!!!!
