The challenge of the impossible, the starting point of the hero Perseus.

 The challenge of the impossible, the starting point of the hero Perseus.




Perseus, having nothing, promises King Polydectes the 'head of Medusa'.


Medusa, a monster whose hair is made of snakes, wild boar teeth, bronze hands, and thick dragon scales. Medusa's most powerful weapon is her eye, which once she encounters will turn anyone into stone.


An unknown Perseus takes his first step on the road where such a nonsensical, one-sided victory is expected.


​


'Every wall is a door'


There is no wall without doors. Having a wall means that somewhere there is a door.


Even in the huge wall called Medusa, there was a door somewhere.


You have to find a door to see it, and to open a door you have to knock.


If Perseus sat down, dismissing it as impossible, he would meet people he would never have met.


The gods who go out to help those who help themselves...


As Perseus embarks on a life-or-death adventure, the touch of Athena, Hermes, Hera, and Hades comes into play.


 


"Even if there are walls on all sides, the door to heaven remains open"


​


 


​


On the way back after beheading Medusa,


Rescuing Andromeda from a sea monster, Perseus takes his wife.


Andromeda's fiancée and his men rush into their grand party.


Perseus is defeated by overwhelming numbers.


Then Perseus raised something high and shouted.


​


"All those who are not my enemies, turn their faces away."


​


This is the moment when the greatest obstacle and difficulty in Perseus's life turns into the greatest weapon.


At that moment, Andromeda's fiancée Phineus and her men turn to stone, and a small battle in the festival grounds ends.


​


It was said that a kite rises higher when the wind is strong, and a person who has driven a ship in a rough storm makes a good captain...


The headwinds he encountered in his life became the driving force for takeoff, which made him fly high in the sky.


What made the unknown Perseus a hero was an abandoned fate, many obstacles, and a huge barrier called Medusa.


​


What is Medusa that frustrates me?


What else is my powerful weapon, Medusa?


​


Will meeting Medusa make you worried and worried?


Will you see it as a door that opens another world?


​


God-given oracle,


The fate the world gave me...


How are you going to look at it all and do it?


It all depends on my choices.

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...
