Guard your mind with study and discipline.

 Guard your mind with study and discipline. 



The poison, the heart, that belongs to me, but I can't do it my way.


Would you dare to understand my heart?


The last life Dasan faced was the subject... the heart.


Mastering the mind is the strength to overcome hardships, and it is the end and conclusion of learning, says Noh.


​

'Poverty, hardship, and worry completely you like jade.'


- Approximation



'Adversity and hardship are the crucible and hammer to forge a hotel.'


- Chae Geun-dam


​

'When Heaven is about to give a man a great mission in the future, it first afflicts his wick, hardens his bones and tendons, makes his body starve, and makes him have nothing, which is contrary to what he intends to do. It is to stir the mind and make him bear his temper so that he can do more of what he could not do.' - Mencius


What benefits can suffering bring in people's lives?


But not everyone gets good results just because they go through hardship. Some people create amazing things through hardship, while others are crushed by hardship. The difference lies in how and with what kind of heart you accept suffering.


To overcome hardships and achieve great things, you must have a positive mind to accept hardships.


​


Another is to be able to think quietly about the meaning of suffering in life. You must have the wisdom to know the meaning of your suffering and wait for the right time.


The premise is to maintain a calm and stable mind.



When people lose a chicken or a dog, they know how to find it, but they cannot find a lost heart. Learning is nothing other than finding the lost mind. - Mencius



Modern people may be living their lives without even knowing that they have lost their hearts somewhere. Losing one's mind is the same as losing one's self. Because the mind is itself.


Learning and cultivating are not different things, they are protecting the mind, and if you lose your mind, you will find it.



“If you hold on to it, it is preserved; if you let it go, it is lost”


The mind belongs to the individual, not to anyone. It is me who holds the heart, and it is me who loses it.


My heart is that if you lose it, you have to come back.

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. 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...
