Another experience of self-awareness, failure.

 Another experience of self-awareness, failure.


​

Human beings are a mixture of strengths and weaknesses.


Even gods, who are called perfect beings, each symbolize differently, so no matter how excellent a person is, he cannot excel in all fields.



"A good horse can take a thousand miles a day, but it can't catch a mouse as much as a wildcat and a raccoon"



As Zhuangzi said, even though there are differences in work, there are always areas of strength of one's own. Even a poor person must have one great talent.


But people often don't know what they're really good at.


What is needed at this time is to experience failure through various experiences.


Failure is an opportunity to be honest with yourself.


Through failure, human beings can face their own abilities and strengths and find the areas in which they are best.


​


Some people get frustrated easily when they fail at something. At this time, it is up to each individual to decide whether to sit down pointing his finger at a world that does not tolerate failure, or whether to recognize the weak will that is collapsing on its own and perceive it as an opportunity to experience other experiences.


​


Rather than being frustrated by a momentary failure, try and remember that it is another opportunity given to you.


It is up to you to make the past, which will end in failure the moment you sit down, into a meaningful experience.


It is something only you can do to take center stage in an unfair world and make it a fair world.

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...
