The destination of wisdom.

 The destination of wisdom.


​


I do not divide the world into strong and weak, success and failure.


I divide the world into those who learn and those who do not.


Benjamin Barber


​


The frame is the window to the mind through which you see the world.


point of view on a problem,


Three minds towards the world,


metaphor for the world,


stereotypes about people


Everything falls under the category of frames.


​


As a window into the mind, the frame acts as a facilitator that guides us to see the world in a specific direction, but


At the same time, they act as censors who limit the world we see.



Wisdom is acknowledging limitations.


Wisdom starts with recognizing the boundaries between what you know and what you don't know, what you can and cannot do.


​


People think they see the world objectively as it is, but in reality they experience a colored and distorted world through frames.


The absolute humility you experience when you face these limitations of the mind due to the frame, this is the starting point of wisdom.


Being aware of the limits of the mind paradoxically means an active march to a new place that exists outside those limits.


​


No matter where you open a window on a building, you cannot see the whole world.


Knowing this, the architect tries to lower the window to the place where he can get the best view.


Humans should also strive to have the best window in order to enjoy the most beautiful and happiest scenery of life.


This is because the results obtained from life are decisively different depending on which frame one approaches the world.



The courage to rearm your life with the best frame, this is the goal of wisdom.

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...
