Hyo Jin Moon Speaks - Belvedere Sunday Service

June 4, 2006 7:00 am Belvedere


Here are my notes from Hyo Jin Nim’s speech Sunday 04 June 2006. My writing speed and ability to convey what was actually said are limited. These at most convey some sense of what Hyo Jin Nim said and are not a verbatim record. Joe Kinney


All welcome Hyo Jin Nim and everyone offers a half-bow.


This time I looked at Hyo Jin Nim when we bowed and I saw that he also does a half bow to the audience; also I noticed that he brought a small notebook and opened it on the podium. I was told that this is the 2nd week that he brought notes.


How are you doing?


I’m going to be away a few weeks. I’ll be going to China and Japan. I have something starting (MCS China) in China.


I’m leaving today. Please keep this in your prayers.


Today I’d like to talk about loyalty.


I often hear that people say that, "I’m only loyal to my self"


In the so-called enlightened world here this often.


Let’s get into the meaning of this boring stuff.


Why would someone want to be loyal to something?


Why do we need loyalty?


What is loyalty?


Loyalty is a concept that triggers certain things like piety or forgiveness..
