You?

All these things do have one thing in common, however—they were generated through the brain. John’s brain
enabled him to become a school teacher, and it is through his brain that he feels awe when standing before a powerful
painting. A symphony of sensory input and memory within his brain gives rise to his reaction to freshly fallen rain. It is also
within his brain that he stores his definition of what it means to be a man, twenty-seven years old, and African-American.
In some sense, you could say that you are your brain. Or, at the very least, the brain is the instrument through which you experience all reality. And it is through it that you interact with reality—in every  motional reaction, in every choice that you make, and in every dream that you dream. Everything you
ever have been or will become is because of your brain.

Your brain is your life

Have you ever stopped to realize that you owe everything you are to your brain?
If someone asks you who you are, what do you say?
Maybe you say something like, “My name is John. I am a twenty-seven-year-old man of African descent, and I currently work as an elementary school teacher in Dallas, Texas.”
Instinctively, you and John both know that there is much more to you. John loves most of all to be in the presence of great art.

The hair on the nape of his neck stands up when he smells freshly fallen rain. Both of you have experienced a great range of love and suffering throughout your life. How can one name or one identity sum up all of this?

Ilchi Lee on Life and energy

Last time I wrote about a quote on life from Ilchi Lee. What shall we use the life given to me for? What will we have to use the energy we have for? They are questions which we should ask ourselves all the time. What is life? What is energy?

Like Ilchi Lee said, if we think we own the life we have then that’s where all selfishness and victim consciousness begin. After all, I came into existence not because I asked for. In some way I don’t know, I find myself living on this earth. I didn’t pay a tax for the opportunity of living here. I did not buy my life paying money. My parents did not let me know why I live and what the purpose of my life is.

We didn’t earn the life, but we are given the life for free. We don’t own the life we have, but life lives through me. Life demonstrates its joyfulness, happiness and love through me. Again, this line “The selfishness and obsessions within us begin with the thought that this life is mine,” really touches my heart.

My body is not me, but mine. My emotions are not me but mine.

The generosity of Ilchi Lee

I found this article on www.ilchi.com. I thought it was a great testimonial to Ilchi Lee’s generosity and contribution to society outside of the world of business. I’m sharing it on this blog because I think this aspect of Ilchi Lee’s activities often goes unnoticed by the general public.  Enjoy the article!

 Ilchi Lee, honorary citizen of Jeju Island, donated 10 million won (US $10,000) to the official state government’s relief fund for its citizens who suffered losses in recent flooding, October 10, 2007.

Jea Don Park and Mi Ryang Kim visited the office of the Jeju state government, to deliver Ilchi Lee’s gift to Governor Tae Hwan Kim. They also presented Ilchi Lee’s message, “The great pride and spirit of Jeju citizens will provide sufficient power for them to overcome their hardships.”

Ilchi Lee’s contribution comes from the royalties from his new Japanese book If You Know Your Brain, You Can See Your Life and lecture fees.

The people and government of jeju Island, a state at the southern part of South Korea, have a close relationship with Ilchi Lee and the Dahn Centers on the Island, based on their strongly shared commitment to advancing traditional culture and world peace. Governor Kim presented Juju’s gift of two traditional harubang statues (grandfather in Korean) to Ilchi Lee, who accepted them on behalf of the Cultural Park for Peace. They were unveiled at a ceremony at the Sedona Ilchi Meditation Center Information Center’s Bill Gray Road entrance, Cottonwood, Arizona, September 19, 2006, where they stand as guardians at the main entrance. The ceremony was attended by 150 persons from the Greater Sedona community, South Korea and Mago Garden. The 10-feet-high statues are carved from volcanic stone, and symbolize harmony with the Earth, source of wisdom, and blessing for peace.

Brain Wave Exercises

The more I do the brain wave exercises Ilchi Lee is teaching, the more I am amazed how something so simple can make my body so relaxed and my brain so peaceful. I rely on them for my neck and shoulder tension, and whenever I want to have a more open, happy mind and attitude.

Accessing the brain stem

The headmaster at my Dahn center just started brain wave vibration training. He explained that, through accessing the most regular vibration of your brain stem, you can access the infinite healing powers that reside within your brain stem and the rest of your body’s cells. I also started reading Ilchi Lee’s paper on brain wave training. Click here to go to the paper.

The training was deep and pretty intense. It helped me to go into much deeper meditation than in the classes we used to have, which seemed a little ironic to me since you’re moving in constant vibration. ^^

Declaration of Humanity

I found a flipping page book on Ilchi Lee’s official website, www.ilchi.com. It contains the Declaration of Humanity that was made at the First Humanity Conference held in June 2001. The participants of the conference ratified this declaration that the earth is the “highest common identification for humanity”. This value encourages peace because so much conflict is caused by a feeling of difference between people and an expectation of limited resources.

Walking your way to health

I’ve been practicing Ilchi Lee’s new Jang Saeng Walking wherever I go lately, and I’ve been able to feel my body and my energy much more deeply. I can really feel my Dahnjon (second chakra, physical energy center), and when I focus a little more deeply on my body, I can really feel deep circulation through my whole body. It’s really amazing!!

Benefits of energy dancing

According to Ilchi Lee, these are the benefits of energy dancing (called “Dahn mu” in Korean):

  1.  We develop physical strength.
  2. We become more proactive and passionate.
  3. We become freer and develop good blood circulation.
  4. We sweat, and develop autonomic control and stability.
  5. Our brains release stress and become more versatile, and our hearts overflow with love.
  6. We increase our creativity.
  7. We feel genuine happiness and peace.
  8. We want to share love with others.
  9. We feel that we have communed with Heaven (divinity).

Isn’t it really amazing that you can gain on so many different levels all at once just from something so simple?
