Do it without stopping, the beauty of skill.

Do it without stopping, the beauty of skill.


Don't quit after a few days.


Don't promise to continue after a few days.


Let the flames of desire continue to burn.


​

Ordinary people live their daily lives.


Everyday life is a place where many things are intertwined.


With many roles and diverse relationships, people are always busy these days.


So, although I made up my mind, there are many cases where I can't continue for a long time.


Wasted time is easily wasted.


Don't be blatantly busy.


Life is a time to find meaning.


Needlessly busy people tend to evangelize,


You'll be wasting your life's time on clutter.


Busy time spent stupidly ruins everything.


​

look back


Think about the moments you remember with joy and how you spent them.


Don't ask me how I can make a living doing what I want to do.


Believe that life is living doing what you want to do.



What I want to do is not something I can do one day.


It only happens when you can do a little each day, and when you do it for the rest of your life, you do it very well.


The world is not grand.


It exists in the mind.



Self-revolution does not occur without faith.


True faith arises where there is no evidence.


Believe in the desire that comes from my heart.


Cultivate only one of the many desires that tempt the mind.


Make it the most precious thing, and immerse yourself in it with all your heart every day.


​

Learn to be temperate in your time.


It is only through hard work and perseverance that we reach the 'cool' that skill gives us.



One of the ways to keep doing what you started is to write.


We can look back by writing.

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.

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...
