Ask questions and do science.

 Ask questions and do science. 


There are stupid people who claim that the Creator made the world. To say that the world was created is false teaching and should be discarded. If God created the world, where was God before creation? How could God create the world out of nothing? If God claims to have created the world, then he made the world, it is also curious to know what else was created. Therefore, we are only caught in the endless cycle of logic. Bear in mind that the world was not created, and like time, it has neither beginning nor end. It is also based on truth.


 - Mahapurana (Great Myth), Indian Jainism, 9th century


There are many theories about the origin of the universe, but most modern cosmology focuses on the theory of cosmic expansion and big bangs. If this hypothesis is generally correct, we face a more serious problem.


What was the state of the explosion?


What was the situation before the big bang?


How big was the universe at that time?


How did matter suddenly arise from an empty universe with nothing in it?


These questions confuse us.



People usually leave it up to God to explain the situation at the singularity and the incomprehensible dilemmas. This is a phenomenon common to many cultures. But the answer that God created the universe out of nothing is only a makeshift. To confront the question of origin head-on, we must solve the question, 'Where did the Creator come from?'


​

Every culture has its own myths about the pre-creation world and its creation. This naive mythical view of the universe has its roots in the naive imagination that the universe mimics what humans and animals do.


If there is a difference between the cosmological view of ancient myths and the modern big-bang cosmology, it is that science constantly questions itself, tests and observes to verify the truth of its proposals.


By questioning and verifying, the myth that the universe is nothing more than a divine dream can be developed into larger teaching.


The existence of man may not be God's dream, but God may be the product of man's dream. Ask questions and do science.

Being able to do anything, or quitting, is freedom.

 Being able to do anything, or quitting, is freedom. ​ Get your hands off the hanging cliff. Enlightened people say I had to get my hands off the hanging cliff. I can't believe it's a story from Buddhism, which emphasizes mercy and love. Doubts can be easily dispelled. A 'hanging cliff' is actually just an object of obsession, believing that it will die if it is released even though there is no problem. The 'hanging cliff' is different for each person. It could be youth, health, family, money, home, or children. Or it could be love, it could be friendship, it could be the approval of others.   It is clear that the person who cannot lift his hand from the cliff is not free, he is not the master of his own life. Whatever it is, if it is impossible to live without it, and if it is likely that he will die, he is already a slave to the cliff on which he hangs. If you let go, you will die, but why should you let go? For the freedom to pursue new possibilities in life....

alchemist. The alchemy of life, fulfilling the myth of the self.

 alchemist. The alchemy of life, fulfilling the myth of the self. There are three classes of alchemists. A person who only imitates the language of alchemy without understanding it, Someone who understands but is finally frustrated to know that the language of alchemy is to be followed with the heart and not the head, A person who has never heard of alchemy, but has already become an alchemist by living the life of obtaining the secret of alchemy and discovering the 'philosopher's stone' in his life... ​ Failed alchemists just want to turn lead into gold. He was obsessed with the myth of the self and its treasure, but did not try to live the myth himself. ​ There is only one way to learn, to learn through action. God created this world so that the teachings and wonderful wisdom of the soul can be realized through the visible, and he calls it 'action'. Everything behind the earth gives enlightenment. If you look into even a single grain of sand with love, you can dis...

君子上達 小人下達

Learning flows from the bottom up to the high. ​ A gentleman faces upwards and a small man faces downwards. (君子上達 小人下達) .. - Analects ​ It means that a gentleman goes through high-level studies and disciplines to rectify himself and create a better world, but a small man concentrates on fulfilling his own interests and greed. In addition, <Heonmun> contains words that tell how to do it. That's 'Hahak Sangdal'. It means that no matter how high ideals and dignified life are pursued, daily learning must be a prerequisite. ​ ​ Education must first teach the near and small, and then the far and great. If you do not go through the process of solidifying the basics properly in order to achieve quick results and teach high-level things first, you will collapse at some point, like building a castle on sand. However, if you stop at something close and small, you will not be able to make progress in your studies. The beginning of learning is small and close, but the end of learn...
