Not everyone can study.

 Not everyone can study.




There are countless people in the world who want to study. However, not everyone can study.


The right to study, the right given to us now. That's why people who can't study often forget.




Think about it.


Have you ever had the privilege of studying with everyone in the world?


​

You can't even look at every corner of history.


For a long time, studying has always been a privilege only for those who have it.


The number of people who do not deserve the freedom to dream and hope has always been overwhelming.


The same is true at this moment.


North Korean youths who are forced to receive only murderous military training and useless brainwashing education, where people are dying 18 hours a day, Middle Eastern girls who suffer from breathless labor amid contempt and persecution just because they are women. Third world youth workers, who are squatted like machines without opening it, work like machines, and are thrown away like rusty scrap metal when they get sick...


Their parents also lived the same life. So they are living their lives.


They are people just like us, and living in the same era as us, they are not even given a chance to gain the wings of study in the first place.


​

We have the 'freedom to study'.


Now that we casually let it go, this opportunity is a 'blessing you can never enjoy' that you want to have even for just one day, which is terribly sad for someone.


It is a wish that will never come true without being reborn.



This precious time given to me,


The privilege of reading a book is something that should never be taken lightly.

Remember, there are 'others' who desperately envy what I have."

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...
