The Mysteries of Nature and Self-Reflection: Insights from Monk Hyewon Guri Sinhaengseonwon Seonwonjang

Where does one drop of rain fall from the sky? If the water vapor collects in the air, where does the water vapor in the air come from? It may have come from valleys, oceans, or any place where water evaporates. So where do water droplets come from and where do they go? Even a supercomputer or artificial intelligence wouldn’t be able to figure it all out. And does that drop of water only change into water form? No. Anything can change into any form. Will one thing become one? No. Not only is it questionable whether the water droplet should be seen as one in the first place, but it can also be divided into hundreds or thousands of particles. Thus, the cycle in nature is very complicated. Therefore, it is impossible to accurately predict the weather.

The same goes for the entity called me. Where does the blood, flesh, and bones that make up my body come from? It is a change in everything I eat and drink. Can my thoughts and experiences also exist independently? It is also something created arbitrarily through experience and judgment in every relationship.

A fragment of an idea that I accidentally read in a book comes back to me with a special meaning, and sometimes I communicate with someone through the sound of the passing wind.

My body and mind are the interaction of the whole world and the result of a long history without beginning.

We usually think that there must be a good reason for something unfortunate that happened to us, or that there must be a special reason why it happened to us, and we look for the reason.

Of course, such questions are often asked.

In this way, they try to find a legitimate reason for injustice and suffering. It’s really hard work. How can it be explained in a fragmentary way? The sun follows the movement of the sun, and the moon and the Earth also have their own movements, but they affect each other. All of this universe affects each other regardless of distance and size. Monk Hyeonbong, the head of Songgwangsa Temple, who completed the tabi ceremony in the water yesterday (5th), is still reverberating in the thoughts of everyone who clearly remembers him.

I reincarnate into everyone around me, and they also reincarnate into me.

Every moment, I make a choice that will determine the future of me and the universe. Whatever that choice is, it’s up to me.

If your choice increases the level of disorder in yourself and the universe, you will become upset, and if your choice decreases the level of disorder, you will become peaceful.

Most people in the world add more confusion. This is because we are constantly reacting to external stimuli and become greedy, angry, or depressed.

Such energy finds a corner for relief and is exploded. It flows to a place that is easy and weak.

Sometimes, when wise people encounter such confusing relationships, they quietly look at them and let them go rather than deal with them. He quietly brings peace to the world.

In a world that spins indiscriminately, it is our choice whether we become fuel that is consumed and exhausted, or whether we pursue peace of mind for ourselves and the countless number of people who in the stream. A lotus flower grows in the mud, but instead of being stained by the dirt, it cleans the water and grows a fragrant flower.

This is the season to photograph a traveler walking aimlessly with a smile in this Saba world called Otakakse.

I wish I could break away from too much obsession and immersion and have a relationship where I can relax my own mind and relax those around me, even just for a moment.

The value of that time of rest and peace is said in the scriptures to be greater than the merit of giving by enhancing the entire universe with the Seven Jewels. Those who are blessed and wise value their peace of mind and look out for things that break that peace.

What and where do we go in this spinning world? Everyone flows with peace of mind. Everyone becomes a cow without nostrils that is not pushed or dragged, and walks around the grass calmly and freely.
