Sloppy and ignorant enlightenment

Posted and published by: Prof Ilchi Lee

The argument turns into fistfight, and during this fight the bowl of rice drops from the table and breaks into a thousand pieces, scattering the tiny, white pebbles of rice all over the floor. Now neither of them can eat, and they remain hungry. Why? Because they both lost sight of what’s really important—the bowl of rice itself. In trying to declare the superiority of their respective positions, they both wind up in inferior positions. In trying to win individually, they have lost collectively.

Ilchi Lee writes that is a very simple fable, but one that describes our present society quite accurately. For example, say that the first man represents capitalism and the second man socialism. What is the difference between these two great ideologies? Different ways to eat the same bowl of rice, It’s only a matter of a difference of opinion for the same thing. Neither one is good or evil. Neither one is correct or wrong. And neither one is what’s most important. The bowl of rice is. Yet, we inevitably get into an argument, which will eventually lead into a fight, breaking that bowl of rice. It would be comic if it weren’t so costly and tragic.

Why do we need enlightenment

Extract from book Healing Society by Prof Ilchi Lee

Imagine a bowl of white rice and two hungry men. One man prefers eating the rice by digging in and spooning it to his mouth as quickly as possible, in a very haphazard way. Another man prefers using the spoon to gently scrape layer by layer off from the top until he reaches the bottom of the bowl, in a very meticulous fashion. Whose is the better way? I guess that depends on your personality. If you have a quick temper, you might prefer the former. If you are a controlling type, you might prefer the latter. It’s all the same. The rice reaches your mouth the same both ways. There is absolutely no difference except in style.

Now imagine that the two men above get into an argument over the different merits of their own peculiar eating habits. The first man thinks that it doesn’t matter how you eat the damn rice, since it’s all going to be eaten in a few minutes anyway. The second man stresses the need for a certain decorum even when doing things as commonplace as eating rice. The argument gets heated. The first man accuses the second of being controlling and arrogant while the second man counter accuses the first one of being sloppy and ignorant.

Walking in snow Part IV

Written by Prof Ilchi Lee

” I felt as if the true me had awakened a little disoriented and was asking where it was. It was at this point that I discovered an ability that allowed me to see myself beyond the confines of current societal norms and relationships into who I truly was, and to ask the really important questions that we all eventually ask: “Why am I here at this particular time and place?” and “What is my life all about?”

And when I got back to my house, my mother greeted me with a look of delight and shock. The delight because I had brought back the meat. The shock because it had taken me less than half the time it would take a grown-up man to travel the same distance. This was my first experience with Ki energy, and its power to not only create certain physical manifestations but to get me in touch with my True Self. Click to read more articles by Ilchi Lee.

Emotions of worry

Posted by: Ilchi Prof

The soft tissue of slaughtered animals is poisoned by the emotion of fear.

As is well known, emotions of worry, fear and anger in fact poison blood and tissues. Imagine the excitable order of animals after many days of travel, closely packed in shaking vehicles- hungry, thirsty, scared en route to the slaughter-houses. Many die even before the end of their journey. Others are driven half dead with fear and exhaustion to the slaughter pans, their instinctive fear of death augmented by the sight and odor of the blood shambles.

Sodium of course present in animal flesh and sodium added to the meat captures adrenaline in forms that are extremely toxic. In its purest form, this sodium-bound adrenaline can even cause heart attack. Avoid this toxin by keep away from the flesh of murdered animals.  Read more about Ilchi Prof aims for good health.

Therapies of water for Headache

Published by: Ilchi Lee

There are certain water applications that help relieve headaches. Copious drinking of water can help, as do the purification enema with water temperature at 98.6º F, the hot foot bath, a cold throat pack, frequent applications of towels wrung out from very hot water to the back of the neck, a cold compress at 40 to 60º F applied to the head and face or an alternate spinal squeeze.

Boiling fomentations over the abdominal region just before retiring relieve headaches due to stomach or liver upsets.
