The realization of my desires, the me in the lamp.

 The realization of my desires, the me in the lamp.

​

One of the strongest and most enduring motivations for human behavior is the desire to do something.


Without desire we cannot do anything. Therefore, it is sometimes necessary to remove the narrow-minded view that sees desire as a bad thing or something that needs to be eliminated.


Desire as an action, a tool of practice, and a methodology for understanding me is a good thing.


Desire is the force that keeps us alive.


Who has lost desire? Can it be seen as a real existence?


There is no end to desire. It has infinite energy like the sun. To utilize this powerful energy in my life, it must be possible to properly operate it. You must be the one who has the control to both increase and decrease the flames of desire. That right should not be held by the world or anyone else.


​


Dreams exist for me, but come true in relationships with other people.


Through the realization of dreams, you can contribute to the joy of others, and the meaning of dreams can be expanded through the joy of others.


Uncontrolled, greedy, and extravagant things are not desires. Desire must be realized in the form of contributing to the public interest. It is like the three wishes in a storybook.


What would you want if you were given three wishes in return for your actions?


A vision is like three wishes to us. It is a desire, and it is also a choice among many desires. However, the person who will make it happen must be yourself, not the 'genie' in the lamp.


​


The fulfillment of true desires makes us happy. When our desires are realized in a way that serves the public good, it means that our happiness cannot be built on the misfortunes of others. Happiness is not a finite thing that one person has and another cannot have. It is an infinite resource.


​

​


​


Happiness is simple. And it is in everyday life. Only those who have been away from everyday life know the value of it.


For those who are lying in the hospital, their only hope is to return to the daily routine that they see outside the window.


In this way, happiness is in our daily life.


​


Unhappiness begins when you think outside yourself of something that other people value as a condition of happiness. So, if you don't have a lot of money, you're unhappy. If you don't get a promotion at work, you're unhappy. If you don't have a big house and a luxury car, you get mad at those who have it.


​


A person who is honest with their desires and sees the world through their own eyes is more faithful to their desires than the values ​​the world places on them.


A poet's attempt to say "I can become your flower only after you call me" is sweet, but


Before we were called flowers, we were already flowers. I just want to be recognized as a flower by others because it was my desire. If it wasn't for burning desire, I wouldn't care what others call me.


​


What is my burning desire?


What is your life vision?


What makes my life beautiful and wonderful?


​


In the end, it's all the same question.

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....

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...
