General Yi and some Korean lessons

This month has been quite busy and apart form the universities and Brain Wave Vibration training that I mentioned in my last post we had the opportunity to go twice to Mt. Moak (MoakSan). It is really an amazing place. We met with the Meditation tour that came from the Unites States here and hiked up the mountain with them. It was great to see some familiar faces and hear their adventures in the land of the morning calm. We also hear about the story of the three enlightened men that came out of this mountain and that it is also predicted to be seven wise men. All of this was amazing to actually experience it by going to each place. It is in reconstruction though since the storms from last year played their part.
On April 27, one of our last presentations was for 10,000 people that are also spreading the Hong Ik philosophy in Korea. The stadium was packed and we actually did Phoenix Dance for them. It was so great to feel their hearts and energy and share our passion too.
On April 28 we also had a lecture on General Yi Sun Sin one of Koreas and the worlds most renown General. He lived in the mid 1500's and I believe he is a true example of loyal spirit, true loyalty for his country, his king and his people, and his family. He had so many hardships in life and even the king did not trust him many time but he still stayed loyal. It is so amazing to see how having true loyalty and be willing to even die for this loyalty can change the history of a country. I believe Korea's history would have been much different if it wasn't for General Yi.
If you are not familiar with his story I would highly recommend reading about his life for it is a great example of what one man can do. He is a true hero.
Another interesting fact that I have learned in the past week is about the Korean's way of greeting. Instead of saying Hi or hello they say añaseyo which actually is a question asking are you ate peace. So when you great you ask are you ate peace and this is why sometimes Korean's respond ne or ye which means yes when you greet them in the morning. I think this is so amazing. Also when they say nice to meet you they say BANgapsumida. Ban comes from ancient Korea Dan Gun Era thousands of years ago. Back then, BAN meant a person who is like god. So when Koreans greet they are also saying hello to the god that is within the person they are greeting. This is so powerful and knowledgeable so when you greet someone here it is as if you are greeting the god within them. WOW! Gives you something to thing about. =)
