Reflection
Serena Dangi – 2nd Gen
I recently turned 20 and if anyone asks me how my 20 years of life have been so far, I’d have to say it wasn’t all great. Ever since I was young, I could see that my fellow 2nd generation brothers and sisters and I weren’t the same. For a long time, I wished that one of my parents should have been international as I was the only one with both Nepali parents in my age group. I could feel the disappointment in people’s faces when they’d ask all our nationalities, and I was the only one who’d say, “My parents are both Nepali”. That was something that really impacted me when I was young. I used to ask Heavenly Parents saying, “Why is it just me who is this way?” But with time, things started making much more sense to me. I joined the 6th Asia Pacific Workshop when I was 13. At that moment, I realized that I was no different than the other 2nd generation despite where we were from. It felt as if we all simply belonged to the same place. I got to engage with 2nd generation from different countries for the first time and it made me realize that the world has so much more to offer to me than what I had faced till the age of 13. I had a lot to explore and learn from people and the world.
As soon as I was 15, I had to see 2nd generations of my age leave Nepal with just the 3 of us remaining as the older 2nd generations to lead our younger brothers and sisters. I was the youngest among them but surprisingly I was made the president of the 2nd generation department for Nepal. I didn’t want to take responsibility, but it looked like I had no choice at all. I could neither say yes nor no. I didn’t really receive any support from the other older 2nd generations like they promised they would. And that’s when I realized I was all alone and on my own on this path. But there was one person who always supported me, and it was our 2nd generation coordinator at that time, Mrs. Divine Bhandari. She really helped me grow to who I am today. I was asked to join the organizing committee for the Asia Pacific workshop during the pandemic when everything was to be done online. I was scared and nervous, but I agreed to it because I was the leader for 2nd gens in Nepal. I was 17 years old and the youngest leader who was on the organizing committee. I was guided by many older-gen leaders and coordinators there. I could even work together with the sister who was my team leader back from the 6th Asia Pacific workshop.
I was happy as I instantly recognized her even though she didn’t recognize me. Taking bigger responsibilities even when I was not confident and being supported by everyone really changed the way I viewed myself. I started attending multiple online programs and worked as staff in different activities. Since that moment, I felt connected with Heavenly Parents and True Parents more than I ever had. From being a simple 2nd gen who was never really recognized to suddenly being the one to lead all of them was a big change for me. Over these 5 years, I have grown both internally and externally to give a better environment to my younger brothers and sisters. I feel happier to see them in a much more pleasant growing environment where they would make lovely memories and connect with Heavenly Parents and True Parents even more than I did. As someone who worked as the official president for the 2nd generation department for 4 years, I still do my best to guide my brothers and sisters as their older sister even if I’m not an official leader to them anymore. If there is one thing I realized after all this, it is to never feel like you’re an average person who has lesser value and that God does have a plan to help you out if you have faith. Thank You.
Indra Devi Sapkota from Nepal
Our beloved Heavenly Parents and true parents thank you so much for giving me this Opportunity to Share HJ Testimony today. Good evening respected leaders blessed families and dear brothers and sisters. I am Indra Devi Sapkota blessed central family Of Nepal. I joined our True Parents movement in 2010 in India through the project mission of self-empowerment. Initially, my Intention to join the movement was to pursue higher education by staying in the center Hostel and to visit the different places and the world. However, after receiving Divine principle teaching my eyes were opened and I was spiritually awake and got a new life. I feel as if I have got a new life and new energy because before that as I belonged to a Hindu family background I used to go to the temple and would ask to god give me this and that and would make conditions to god like god if you fulfill my this wish I would offer this and that to you. Even my prayer was full of selfishness.
When I learned about the true parents’ Incredible Life course and unimaginable sacrifice, hardships, the blood and tears they shed for humanity, the persecution they faced, and their perseverance to liberate god’s Sorrowful heart and to give salvation to all humankind, I could not stop crying, my heart ached a lot. I realized how ignorant and pitiful were we, and how lonely God was. Since that time I have pledged to my heavenly parents and to myself no matter what the situations may come in my life of faith I will always remain faithful to True Parents and follow their footprint till the last breath of my life. I continued my spiritual journey as a full-time member in India. I Joined 7 days, 21 days, and 40 days of frontline training in India, Nepal, and Thailand. I would conduct Seminars, give lectures, lead the center as a center leader witness new members, actively serve in blessing programs, and so on, full of power and new energy. But at the same time, we need to be aware of the existence of Satan as well who is always looking for the opportunity to block our spiritual path. As True Father said,” We must need to pass the Test of Satan”. Then there came a point in my life where I was tested by Satan. When I was about to receive the most precious treasure from our true parents which is marriage blessing. For that, I am trying to convince my parents about my marriage blessing, but they already searched me a groom from their Side Who was an engineer from the same family background, the same caste, and the Same nation. They wanted me to marry that man. They were trying to convince me, One of my aunts even bit me up and threatened me to Kick me out of home at night.
My mother said She would Commit Suicide if I did not listen to them, same time My aunt even threatened our national Leader and even center member she said she would file a police case against our movement. I was totally fighting alone. In that situation I asked to myself How faithful I am towards Heavenly parents and True parents: Can I implement in my real life what I have learned Over many years. Can I follow myself What I used to tell people the easiest things one can do is to suggest others but difficult is to implement that in our own life. But I believed that God was with me. so I got spiritual and moral Support from our higher Leaders and Central figures, and of course, my husband Who was Constantly praying and took 3 days of fasting Condition to support me Spiritually for the Success of our marriage Holy blessing. So finally, I somehow managed to escape from home and directly went to the National Headquarters of India. But that does not mean I don’t love my parents. However, I had to choose the higher priority in my Life which is True Parents’ blessing. Today I am very happy with the decision I have made otherwise I would be regretting it even in the spiritual world. After that, I got the opportunity to attain 1st Asia Top Gun In 2015 in Korea which was One of the best spiritual experiences for me. Which was nothing short of a Miracle for me. Soon After I back from Korea my family were quite agreed about my decision and somehow ready to accept us. So, in 2016 we started our family life and continued our mission as center Leader in India.
Now I am a mother of two children, since my husband was a missionary he mostly used to go out for mission purposes and I raised my son alone. So, until the age of 3, my first son would not recognize him as his father. Therefore, I can somehow feel the pain of our beloved True Mother her sacrifice hardships and struggles are beyond the imagination of any normal human being the only begotten daughter of God. She had to restore the position of fallen eve, by paying indemnity on behalf of all of us. She gave birth to 14 children 4 through C-section which is not possible for any normal woman and some children She lost too Soon. On top of that father was not able to be with her When She needed him the most. Despite So many hardships in her own life. She never gives up rather she always worries about the 7.6 billion People of the world. Still at this age, she is constantly working tirelessly to restore the Heavenly unified Korea and Heavenly Unified world. That’s why she is our True mother, mother of peace, and mother of all humanity. My husband served 9 years In India as a missionary and this year April 2023, we moved to Nepal. Recently I have been staying with my in-laws and raising my children. My husband is continuously supporting the providential activities here in Nepal. I am very grateful and thankful to our beloved True Mother and leaders for conducting this CSW Vigil prayer through which I personally feel the revival and bosting up of my spiritual energy to the next level. Finally, I pledge and determine that no matter what I will always follow the true parents’ footprint and testify to our true parents to as many people as I can till the last breath of my life.
Aju‼ kamsahamnida. I Love you so much true mother.
