Ilchi Lee on resonating with others

burnedbright on Nov 30th 2007 10:15 pm

Ilchi.com posts Dr. Ilci Lee’s responses to people’s questions. Here is one I really liked…

Q: Sometimes I am very sensitive to other people’s energies. Although I try to let people’s emotions bounce off me like a rubber ball, sometimes I still feel their sadness or anger very strongly, and I wonder how much I can take around certain people. However, I realize that these emotions are not really directed at me, but are simply the result of what’s going on in that person’s life. I always try to remain calm and positive, but it is not always easy. How do I manage my sensitivity to others energies?

A: We all have a natural capacity for resonance, so it is natural to be affected by others’ emotions. But it doesn’t mean this has to be automatic or inevitable. You really need to manage your attention, rather than your sensitivity. What you sense is what you pay attention to. You can re-direct your attention to some other object instead of resonating with and being affected by others’ unwanted negative emotions.

You can’t hold attention totally within yourself because proper management of your life requires interaction with people and effective handling of difficult situations. However, you don’t need to let your whole attention follow a given stimulation, whether it be someone’s emotional state or some other difficulty. A good rule of thumb is to distribute your attention in a balanced way, focusing 30% within yourself and 70% on the outside world. You cannot measure the distribution exactly, but being aware of this concept will help. It is like keeping your dog on a leash while you are walking him or her. You can allow the dog to follow his or her own whims in some cases, and you can pull back on the leash at other times. This is the best thing for both you and your dog, and likewise it is the best way to handle your own attention to the energies around you. Learn to recognize what energies are healthy to follow and which are not.

One of the most effective practices is feeling your body. Try feeling your body through internal sensory awareness, without touching it with your hands. If you can do this, it is a solid indicator that you are holding your own leash. Practicing this will enable you to consciously direct your attention to the objects you want to focus on, instead of being influenced by unwanted energy around you.

Finally, I would like to add that you should always take responsibility for any emotion you feel inside, no matter where you think it came from. Unless you acknowledge your full ownership and responsibility for your emotions, you cannot have power over them. Remind yourself, “Whatever is within me is mine.” You will experience the power of this statement when you really accept it fully.

Dr. Ilchi Lee’s Prayer for Peace

burnedbright on Nov 28th 2007 09:49 pm

Dr. Ilchi Lee presented this prayer at the United Nations on August 28th, 2000…

Prayer of Peace

I offer this prayer of peace
Not to the Christian God
Nor to the Buddhist God
Nor to the Islamic God
Nor to the Jewish God
But to the God of all humanity

For the peace that we wish for
Is Not a Christian peace
Nor a Buddhist peace
Nor an Islamic peace
Nor a Jewish peace
But a human peace
For all of us.

I offer this prayer of peace
To the God that lives within all of us
That fills us with happiness and joy
To make us whole
And help us understand life
As an expression of love for all human beings

For no religion can be better
Than any other religion
For no truth can be truer
Than any other truth
For no nation can be bigger
Than the earth itself.

Help us all go beyond
Our small limits
And realize that we are one
That we are all from the earth.
That we are all earth people
before we are Indians, Koreans, or Americans

God made the earth
We humans have to make it prosper
By realizing that we are of the earth
And not of any nation, race, or religion.
By knowing that we are truly one
In our spiritual heritage.

Let us now apologize
to all humanity
For the hurt that religions have caused
So that we can heal the hurt
Let us now promise to one another
To go beyond egotism and competition
To come together as one in God.

I offer this prayer of peace
To you the almighty
To help us find you within all of us
So that we may stand proudly one day before you
As one humanity.

I offer this prayer of peace
With all my fellow earth people
For a lasting peace on earth.

Taking IT Global

BetterLife on Nov 27th 2007 08:30 pm

Today I visited a site, www.TakingITGlobal.org ,which is showing hopes of earth. It is from sharing to action over the world. It is like a United Nations of young people. They share their opinions on many issues over all over the world, propose projects then do actions on it.

I think if they can find better contents for themselves or for their actions, their actions will be much more powerful. For example, Brain Management, Brain Wave Vibration methods, Longevity walking methods… will give strength & inspiration, help them do better action. In South Korea, Brain Education is becoming popular in many schools. So I think this brain education is also very helpful for them.

In fact, all contents created or proposed by Ilchi lee’s are about Cosmic Energy & Cosmic Mind, so it can be easily utilized for all age. We can take IT global…

Mind to Matter

BetterLife on Nov 25th 2007 05:51 am

In our many experience, when people really want something, then he keep imagining or thinking about it, that create energy, finally it may come true. It is called the law of ‘Mind to Matter’ in Dahn practice. That means we need habit to think or live with a good information, imagination on spiritually better future,… because they bring energy for it to happen in real world.

But in many movies nowadays, they writes story about violence, wars, catastrophy,… It can be said that’s the movie of hero. But many scenes are about fight or death. It is so sad. Because those images or information come into our brain then it might create certain negative energy.

We need something to refresh our brain. Ilchi lee is giving many lectures everyday for this. Brain Management, Brain wave vibration method, Longevity walking method (called Jangseng walking method),… Through these exercise, you will be able to make your brain brighter. He really wants everybody becomes the master of their brain and change this world more brighter places, where they enjoy Healthy, Smile(Happy) and Spiritual lives.

A virtual world

BetterLife on Nov 24th 2007 10:25 am

I read an article about the Virtual world through Internet. Nowadays it is like another world existing in Internet web, where they have their own identity(avartar or resident), they live as in a real life. This is different from game. Because there is no winner or loser, or scores. The virtual world is for fun. If it is used well, it can be helpful for better life in real world by helping their spiritual growth with virtual experience. Ilchi lee also focus on the possibility of Internet. He really wants Internet help people grow and lead them to change our world to better direction.
