=====
“Bridging Beyond Technique: Exploring the Essence of Modern Martial Arts,” and “Unlocking Potential: The Evolution of Haedong Kumdo in the USA.”
=======
Many Korean Taekwondo and Hapkido martial arts masters immigrated to the United States three to four decades ago, imparting numerous techniques that surpassed physical limitations.
While others focused on transmitting skills, I chose to publish two English-language textbooks: “Think out of the box through Haedong Kumdo Training” and “Searching for the forgotten half in martial arts.”
These works precisely articulate the direction and ultimate goal of modern martial arts in the 21st century, emphasizing how to train both the body and the mind and how to apply these skills in daily life.
They also clarify what constitutes proper training after mastering the techniques. More details are elaborated in the two books.
In essence, martial arts emphasize three components: skills, philosophy, and healing. Omitting any one of these aspects precludes achieving the ultimate goal of martial arts for modern individuals.
Understanding why our ancestors referred to martial arts as “Muye” sheds light on why the training system of Jin Young Ssangkum Ryu is praised as top-notch or top-elite
No matter how proficient one is in cutting, kumbups(forms), or Keyukkum(sparring), Kummu(sword dance), etc. in Haedong Kumdo, it encompasses only a small part of the whole.
Especially, Jin Young Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo has upgraded the existing Haedong Kumdo by adding training in healing and philosophy, essential elements that were missing.
By prioritizing the acquisition of “Energy Flow,”: Self-Acquirement, these practices enrich lifelong training and lead to a more abundant and fulfilled life.
Jin Young Ssangkum Ryu teaches the fundamental principles and essence according to the laws of nature and truth. Through this, I aim to convey these truths at the upcoming seminar in the United States from April 5 to 7, 2024.
Occasionally, on social media, we come across individuals who still exhibit exclusive and dismissive attitudes towards training from other associations within the Haedong Kumdo community. However, regardless of affiliation, anyone can participate in the 2024 USA Seminar hosted by Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo.
If your training has been lacking, it’s an opportunity to discuss how to address those deficiencies, or if you excel in certain aspects like cutting or kumbups(forms), what the next steps should be, and ultimately, what the ultimate goal of martial arts is.
This seminar would provide a platform for dialogue, questions, and answers.
Haedong Kumdo has been spreading in the United States for over 20 years now. Many Haedong Kumdo instructors are interested and hopeful to have an opportunity to assess the level and quality of their respective training.
If you have any questions or concerns about what I have mentioned in various articles on SNS regarding Haedong Kumdo training, feel free to contact me directly if there are any shortcomings or inaccuracies.
Especially if you have inquiries about techniques or training systems, I am confident I can provide further assistance.

수많은 한국의 태권도, 합기도 원로 무술 사범들이 삼 사 십년 전 미국으로 건너가 육체적 한계를 뛰어넘는 많은 기술들을 전수해주었다.
본인은 “Think out of the box through Haedong Kumdo Training”와 “Searching for the forgotten half in martial arts” 라는 두 권의 영문판 교본을 출간하면서, 21세기 현대 무술의 가야 할 방향과 무술의 궁극적 목표를 정확히 제시하면서, 무술 수련에서 몸과 수련을 어떻게 하는 것인지, 그것을 익힌 후, 실생활에 어떻게 사용할 수 있는 것인지, 또한 어떻게 하는 것이 올바른 수련인지를 확연히 나타내고 있다. 자세한 내용은 위 두 권의 책을 읽어보면 잘 설명되어 있다.
간추려 이야기 해본다면,
무술은 술기(skills)와 철학(philosophy)과 치유(hwmealing)라는 세 가지 항목 중 어느 한 가지라도 빠지면 21세기 현대인을 위한 무술의 궁극적 목표에 결코 도달할 수 없다는 것을 강조하고 싶다.
우리 선조들이 martial arts를 왜, 무예라고 칭했는지 알수있다면 진영쌍검류의 수련시스템을 왜 top-notch 혹은 Top-Elite 라고 말하는지 이해할 수 있게된다.
해동검도에서 베기나 검법이나 격검을 아무리 잘 한다고 해도 그것은 작은 한 부분에 지나지않는다.
특히 진영쌍검류 해동검도는, 무술에서 반드시 익혀야 할 세 가지 중, 기존의 해동검도에서 빠진 부분인 힐링과 철학 부분, 즉 마음을 다스리는 수련을 첨가하여 기존의 해동검도를 업그래이드 시키면서, 좀 더 완벽한 무예 시스템을 갖추었다.
힐링과 철학을 위한 수련은 반드시 가장 우선적으로 “Energy Flow의 체득”이 관건이 되며, 그것이 각자의 평생 수련과 여유롭고 풍요로운 삶을 만들어가게 된다.
그러한 사실들을 진영쌍검류에서는 가장 기본이 되는 핵심과 본질을 가지고 자연의 이치와 법, 진리에 따라 가르치고 있다는 사실을 이번 미국 세미나를 통해 전하고자 한다.
해동검도 수련에서 아직까지도 타 협회의 수련에 대해 배타적이고 냉소적이기까지 한 사람들을 sns를 통해 가끔씩 보게 된다. Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo는 협회와는 무관하게 누구라도 4월에 개최될 2024 USA Seminar에 참가할 수가 있다.
당신의 수련이 부족했다면, 얼마나 부족했는지, 혹은 베기나 검법을 잘했다면, 그 다음에는 무엇을 해야하며, 마지막 궁극적 목표는 무엇인지, 기타 등등 함께 이야기하고, 질문과 해답을 할수 있는 자리가 곧 마련된다.
미국에 해동검도가 보급된 지는
약 20여년이 훌쩍 넘었다. 미국의 많은 해동검도 지도자들이 관심을 가지고, 여태까지 각자의 수련의 수준과 정도를 살펴볼 수있는 기회를 가질 수 있길 기대해 본다.
The primary goal of the Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu seminar worldwide 영문 및 국문 번역
- The primary goal of the Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu seminar worldwide 영문 및 국문 번역
The international seminar on Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo is designed to:
– Immerse participants deeply in the essence and principles of martial arts, engaging both their bodies and minds.
– Help them grasp the interconnectedness of skills, philosophy, and healing stemming from this understanding.
– Elevate each participant’s martial skills and abilities, assisting them in pursuing the ultimate goal of human life.
■ The core motto of training in Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo
Key elements of training in Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo, rooted in these foundational principles, include:
– Strengthening the repetitive perception and enhancement of energy flow.
– Recognizing the essence inherent in energy flow.
– Acknowledging the consciousness and vitality inherent in energy.
– Emphasizing the acknowledgment that one’s body and energy are not solely one’s own.
This seminar predominantly focuses on training in Ssangsu (both hands together) and Ssangkum (both hands separately) techniques based on Kimu practice, teaching the fundamentals of technique and energy flow. Through this training, participants refine their minds and bodies, engaging in mental and physical exercises that promote health and happiness in daily life.
■ Self-Acquirement – the essence of martial arts and life – Love
The significance of “making oneself better and healing & saving others” through martial arts training, using the terms “Hwalyeonggeom(활인검, 活人劍)” and “Yangsaenggeom(양생검, 養生劍),” lies in establishing the groundwork to achieve “Che Deuk(Self-Acquirement)” through intensive training based on repeated experiences of energy flow.
This fundamental aspect holds crucial importance in all seminars. “Che Deuk(Self-Acquirement)” encompasses understanding the correlation between martial arts training and healing, realizing the essence of human life, the laws and truths of the world, and guiding one’s martial arts practice and life journey as a lifelong beacon.
Through experiencing Kimu training repeatedly and continuously, honing their body and mind with swords or without swords, participants gain a deep understanding of energy flow and learn about the interconnectedness of healing and the flow connecting body and mind.
Through comprehensive training, each practitioner internalizes this system, contributing to harmonizing their mind, body, and spirit, thereby experiencing the profound benefits of natural, balanced well-being.

Using the whole body through training 영문 및 국문 번역
Using the whole body through training
Using our whole body helps us understand how to efficiently use energy and conserve it physically during training. It also enables us to understand the movement of energy throughout the body and how to follow it in both training and healing.
This understanding allows us to use our body both physically and mentally in accordance with the flow of energy.
Ultimately, it leads us to realize how to utilize our body not just through muscle usage but also through energy manipulation, known as Kimu (기무).
This concept transitions from martial arts (氣武) to a state of “energy in nothingness” (氣無), emphasizing the utilization of energy alone. This principle can be likened to the concepts of aiki (合氣) or hapki (합기), which demonstrate the principles of nature. In Korean, 기합 (氣合) represents the harmonization of energy, further reflecting the universal essence of this principle.

In Korean
우리 몸 전체를 사용하는 것은 우리가 에너지를 효율적으로 활용하고 훈련 중에 신체적으로 에너지를 절약하는 방법을 이해하는 데 도움이 됩니다. 또한, 이것은 우리에게 몸 전체를 통해 에너지가 어떻게 움직이는지를 이해하고, 이를 훈련과 치유에 적용하는 방법을 배우게 해줍니다. 이러한 이해는 우리가 몸을 에너지의 흐름에 따라 신체적으로나 정신적으로 사용하는 방법을 이해하게 합니다.
마지막으로, 이것은 근육만 사용하는 것이 아니라 에너지 조작을 통해 몸을 사용하는 방법을 깨닫게 합니다. 이는 무술에서의 에너지(기무)에서 “무”라는 개념으로 이어집니다. 이 개념은 근육 대신 에너지만을 사용하는 상태를 강조합니다. 이러한 원리는 자연의 원리를 보여주는 aiki(合氣)나 hapki(합기)와 같은 개념과 비슷합니다. 한국어로는 기합(氣合)이라는 개념이 에너지의 조화를 나타내며, 이는 이 원리가 우주적인 본질과 일치함을 보여줍니다.

ARREGLARTE: EL VIAJE DE LA AUTOCONOCIMIENTO, SANACIÓN Y AMOR EN LAS ARTES MARCIALES.
Este título capta perfectamente la esencia del contenido y transmite los temas de la superación personal, la curación y la conexión significativa entre las artes marciales y el amor. Es atractivo e intrigante, haciendo que los lectores sientan curiosidad sobre el contenido que sigue, puedo esperar. Si tiene alguna pregunta sobre el contenido a continuación, no dude en enviar un mensaje en cualquier momento a
“Las luces te guiarán a casa
Y enciende tus huesos
Y voy a tratar de arreglarte ”
-Coldplay “Arreglarte”
A. La luz te guiará a casa
Armonía y Equilibrio a través de la Energía de Luz
El título está tomado de una parte de la letra de la canción de Coldplay “Fix You.” Si bien estas letras tienen un significado filosófico, aquí el enfoque está en explicar el concepto a través del flujo de energía en el entrenamiento de Ki Mu, promoviendo la recuperación física y mental y la mejora.
A través de la activación de la Energía de Luz y encendiéndola dentro de uno mismo, o morando dentro del pilar de luz, se logra la armonía y el equilibrio en el cuerpo y la mente, lo que conduce a un estado saludable del ser.
B. Enciende tus huesos
El entrenamiento de Ki Mu y la Orden de Muwi.
La comprensión de la ” la Orden de Muwi ” a través del entrenamiento de Ki Mu permite percibir el arranque de la energía vital, guiando no sólo formas superiores de la práctica de las artes marciales, sino también mejores enfoques de la vida cotidiana.
La esencia y la verdad detrás de ella son simples pero profundas.
Al alcanzar el flujo de energía, frente a diversas situaciones, recuperando el cuerpo y la mente, incluso ante los desafíos físicos y mentales, adaptándose a ellos a través del flujo de energía, nutriendo la fuerza interior y la perseverancia.
Fomentar un sentido de calma interior y abundancia, mientras cultiva la resiliencia y la capacidad de superar cualquier obstáculo y progresar positivamente en la vida.
El principio es directo y claro, pero alinearse con el entorno siempre cambiante nunca es fácil. Además, el cuerpo humano mismo fluctúa y se mueve con la mente inquieta. La mecánica del cuerpo humano está diseñada de esa manera, y es un aspecto esencial de la transformación, desarrollo y madurez humana.
La conexión entre el flujo de energía y la respiración se cubrirá en una oportunidad futura
-Respiración uniforme, mente normal.
El propósito fundamental del seminario
El seminario internacional de Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo, que estoy organizando, tiene como objetivo:
• Involucrar a los participantes en la exploración profunda de la esencia y la naturaleza de las artes marciales a través de su cuerpo y mente.
• Basado en este entendimiento, comprender la interconectividad entre las técnicas de las artes marciales, la filosofía y la curación.
• Mejorar las habilidades y habilidades de artes marciales de cada individuo.
• Ayudar a los participantes a alcanzar el objetivo final de la vida humana.
El lema básico de la formación
En base a estos conceptos fundamentales, los puntos principales de la formación de Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo incluyen:
• Reforzar la percepción repetitiva del flujo de energía.
• Comprender la esencia del flujo de energía.
• Reconocer que la energía misma es consciente y viva.
• Experimentar y reconocer que el cuerpo y la energía de uno no pertenecen únicamente a uno mismo.
La formación se centra en el entrenamiento de Ki Mu con un enfoque en ambas manos y dos espadas, enseñando sus técnicas y los fundamentos del flujo de energía.
A través de este entrenamiento, los participantes perfeccionan su mente y cuerpo, se involucran en el entrenamiento espiritual que promueve la salud y la felicidad en su vida diaria.
C. Trata de arreglarte
Autoconocimiento (체득, Cheduk) – la esencia de artes marciales y vida – amor (사 랑, Sarang)
En realidad, “arreglarte” se basa en el “Auto-Requisito”, que está estrechamente
relacionado con la curación.
Este auto requisito se hace posible a través de un entrenamiento intensivo en Ki Mu, que implica experiencias repetitivas de flujo de energía y Autoconocimiento: Auto- Magnetización.
Esto se convierte en la esencia de la formación de artes marciales y la vida humana, finalmente culminando en “amor” que tiene el significado más profundo en todos los seminarios de Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu.
“Auto-conocimiento”(체득, Cheduk) revela la conexión entre el entrenamiento de las artes marciales y la curación, y trae consigo una comprensión de la esencia, las leyes, las verdades de la vida humana y el mundo.
A través de las experiencias del entrenamiento de Ki Mu, los participantes adquieren un profundo conocimiento del flujo de energía y la interconexión entre la curación, el cuerpo y la mente. A través de la formación integral, cada practicante internaliza este sistema, unificando mente, cuerpo y espíritu, logrando naturalmente una vida armoniosa y equilibrada, y darse cuenta de la esencia de volver a la naturaleza.

Uncovering the Key Principles and Essence of Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Practice
In Korean
진영쌍검류 수련의 핵심과 요체
https://m.cafe.daum.net/enlightenment-k/dcM5/245?svc=cafeap
I am going to illustrate for trainees to explore the core and essence of Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu practice in brief as follows.
In the training of Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo
Through Ki-Mu training, one becomes aware of the flow of energy – Mindfulness and Awareness.
Even Breathing and Normal Mind form the foundation of all practices – Enlightenment.
By employing one or two swords,
one seeks mental and physical training to grasp how to move the body automatically – the principle of body movement.
Practitioners engage in Ki Mu Practice, a training method that cultivates a deep connection with the flow of energy. – Flow of Energy
This practice fosters a heightened state of mindfulness and awareness, where even the act of breathing and maintaining composure becomes the foundation of all training endeavors, ultimately leading to enlightenment. – Enlightenment
Through the use of one or two swords in physical training, practitioners gain a profound understanding of the principles of body movement.
Ki Mu training emphasizes the importance of maintaining Even Breathing and a state of Normal Mind (composure), while sword training focuses on achieving body harmony and balance. – Mastery of how to move the body automatically
■ Ki-Mu Training – Even Breathing and Normal Mind
○ Seeing the Light Energy
○ Following the Flow of Energy
○ Mastery of the principle of natural and automatical movements
○ Awareness of the Energy operating in the Body
○ Understanding the Functioning of Energy in Each Organ, and so on
■ Sword Training – Harmony and Balance
○ The Sword as an Extension of the Arm
○ The Sword’s Movements Follow the Body’s One.
○ Body (+E) Movements Follow My Mind
○ My Mind (+E) Follows the Energy (Love) of Nature
☆ Simbeop (Mind Method)
☆ Sinbeop (Body Method)
☆ Dobeop (Sword Method)
=> Understanding the Triadic Structural Principles
■ Healing System
with Vipassana Acupuncture Practice
Identifying the blockages and openings of energy in uncomfortable or painful areas and establishing the communication of energy to return to balance and harmony through practice.
The methods of practice include meditation, acupuncture, using stones, swords, and any other tools.
The principle of the body moving automatically and naturally is based on the fundamental concept that my body is not truly mine, and the energy is not mine either.
All the above training methods share the same underlying essence, providing a common foundation.
Whether it is sword training or
acupuncture, regardless of the tool used, it becomes a tool for my mental and physical training, leading to the elevation of martial skills and guiding human life to a better state.
Therefore, the reason why all practice and religious groups use phrases such as “forget yourself,” “discard yourself,” or “empty mind” becomes clear through experiencing and understanding directly through Ki-Mu practice with one or two sword training.
In summary:
As practitioners delve deeper into their training, they come to realize that their body is not separate from themselves but rather a vessel through which energy flows.
This understanding leads to a state where the body moves instinctively, and practitioners recognize the impermanence of self-identity.
This principle is echoed in various other spiritual and training disciplines that encourage individuals to let go of self-centeredness and transcend their limitations.
Through the integration of Ki Mu Su Practice and sword training, practitioners are able to directly experience and comprehend the rationale behind the emphasis on selflessness and self-transcendence in all forms of training and spiritual pursuits.
This holistic approach enables individuals to achieve higher levels of accomplishment beyond mere mastery of martial arts techniques, which is the goal of Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo training
Ultimately, the training in Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu leads practitioners to the right practice for better training and a better life as well.
Healing into the training of martial arts?
In Korean 국문 번역
https://m.cafe.daum.net/enlightenment-k/dcM5/238?svc=cafeapp
Healing into the training of martial arts?
Through conscious change and thinking outside the box in the training of Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo with two swords system, one can attain a deeper understanding of philosophy, medicine, and the essence of martial arts, which is my mission for all lifetime practices.
After witnessing the teaching of healing through martial arts seminars, some people may have doubts about the relationship between healing and martial arts training, or they may still not fully understand it.
Martial arts can help integrate the body and mind, regulate energy flow, and strengthen muscles. These martial elements can improve balance and flexibility, relieve stress, and maintain proper energy flow in the body.
Healing taught during martial arts seminars aims to enhance the body and mind’s self-healing ability by utilizing these martial elements. This can improve psychological stability and physical resilience, as well as provide benefits such as stress management, self-regulation, and improved concentration.
Therefore, I will briefly explain it again as follows.
Martial arts training is focused on the “flow of energy,” and its increasing martial arts skill is directly linked to “Healing”
If you are interested in more information, “Searching for the Forgotten Half in Martial Arts,” published by English version, will provide you with various diagrams and explanations for deeper and wider understanding.
The reason for striving to help the healing of others during the training in Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo is to demonstrate the fundamental interconnectedness between martial arts training and the healing system.
This is because it becomes an essential element for consciousness change and enlightenment for better practice and life in martial arts and daily life.
It should not be overlooked that the beginning of martial arts training starts with the flow of energy.
If you don’t know it, it means that you have never learned it, and you can not teach it.
So, what makes a good teacher is teaching the correct way to learn and teach the fundamental of martial arts, which is the “flow of energy.”
The disciple, based on that, strives to polish and refine themselves, making efforts to become a good disciple. This is considered desirable.
Many people engage in feeling or following the flow of energy in their movements, and there are numerous methods in the world to cultivate it.
The most crucial point is to understand the essence and reality of that energy, which enables us to understand how it connects with healing and allows us to start the right practice.
Meditation, prayer, or breathing exercises also help us understand right from wrong and choose the appropriate method that suits us.
It also means not wasting time and energy on unnecessary or irrelevant things. When people learn something, they tend to keep adding unnecessary things to it by their will by their present level and degree.
While this may be a way for humans to develop with lots of failures in it, it is not always necessary.
Many people have wandered and turned to religion for centuries in search of something spiritual, practicing prayer or meditation, and performing thousands of prostrations. However, as religion and philosophy develop into academic disciplines, the essence and reality of human life that we need to understand only seem to become more distant.
The existence of everything in the world coexists within our relationship, and if I cease to exist, the world ceases to exist as well. I am the protagonist, and it depends on my mindset.
Nurturing that mindset is enlightenment, and it is limited to the practice in everyday life. This practice is called “Do.” In other words, it is the way of human life, the “Do.”
To cultivate the mind means to try to understand within the context of relationships. The constant effort to understand helps to dissipate anger, resentment, jealousy, misunderstanding, and greed. It is a way to live without getting angry, to extend one’s lifespan, and to experience less suffering.
Ultimately, wisdom emerges from this process, and it nurtures love that becomes the driving force of life. When that time comes, a grateful heart naturally bursts forth like a cluster of clouds, enveloped in a gentle radiance, and the whole body becomes light as a feather. That is the true essence of gratitude.
Through such a process, during our lifetime, we develop our level of consciousness as human beings and pursue proper values. We live with less difficulty, less hardship, more leisure, and greater abundance, ultimately returning to nature.
Whether or not our physical bodies or minds can afford to travel abroad or possess luxury goods that we desire in the present moment, it has no relevance to the ultimate scorecard of life when it comes to our final journey.
When creating a bucket list, if we align our criteria with the changes in our consciousness and the pursuit of proper values, it can be worthwhile even if it’s just a small achievement. This is because as time goes by, our physical and mental strength becomes more susceptible to exhaustion and pain.
The change in values and consciousness towards the right direction is a change in energy, an upgrade of the mind and body’s energy, and becomes the foundation that makes me healthy and happy.
Moreover, when I can perceive with my body and mind how it interacts with the energy of my consciousness and nature,
I can easily judge right from wrong in the many things that have been passed down for hundreds and thousands of years in religion and philosophy according to my own understanding.
By transcending the change in consciousness and the existing way of thinking, one can gain a deeper understanding of the essence of martial arts and healing arts and further realize the fundamental nature of religion, philosophy, and humanities, leading to a better life.
“That is the lifelong pursuit and commitment through Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Training with Kimu.”

Cf)
MUWIDONGWON (무의동원);
“MU (무)” refers to martial arts, “WI(의)” refers to healing arts, “DONG(동)” means the same, and “WON(원)” means origin.
Therefore, it can be understood that martial arts and healing arts share the same roots.
This indicates that the essence and reality of martial arts and healing arts are interrelated and share the same principles and philosophies.

At the Healing Session
It’s acupuncture,
but not that one for sure.
Relax, and feel the energy!!
That energy will take you a certain point.
Focus, and see it!!
Make sure nothing you can do.
You are just one as a medium.
Just follow that energy,
Nothing you can do.
My body is not mine,
Even energy is not mine either.
Realize, and do it !!
Then, you can get to a certain point as your goal for healing,
even to the ultimate purpose in your life.
On the 9th of April, 2023,
an opportunity presents itself for a unique healing session through the practice of acupuncture. This modality, however, is not your conventional approach. Rather, it transcends the physical body to access the subtle realm of energy.
To truly benefit from this experience, it is vital to release the grip of control and allow oneself to surrender to the flow of energy. Recognize that you are a mere conduit, a vessel for this energy to pass through, and not the owner of it.
In this state of surrender, one is free from the confines of ego and individuality, recognizing the interconnectedness of all things. The realization that the body is not one’s own, and even the energy is beyond possession, brings about a sense of oneness with the universe.
As you immerse yourself in this heightened state of consciousness, the energy will guide you towards your intended destination, whether it be physical, emotional, or spiritual healing. It may even reveal to you a deeper purpose and meaning in life.
By relinquishing control and allowing the energy to lead the way, you open yourself up to infinite possibilities and boundless potential. Trust in the process and embrace the journey, for it is in the surrender that we find true liberation.

침술을 통한 독특한 치유의 체험
이러한 치유 방법은 전통적인 방식이 아니며, 이는 육체적인 부분을 넘어서 미묘한 에너지의 영역으로 이어지는 것으로 볼수있다.
이러한 경험을 통해 분명한 결과를 확신하기 위해, 스스로 통제 해보려는 의지를 접고 에너지의 흐름에 몸을 맡기는 것이 기본이 된다.
자신이 에너지의 주인이 아님을 인식하고, 에너지가 자신의 내면을 통과하는 그릇이라는 사실을 받아들일 수 있을 때, 비로소 뭔가 깨닫기 시작한다.
이러한 자신을 없앤 상태에서는, 개인적인 욕망이나 자아성이 상쇄되며, 만물과 연결된 상태에서의 일체감을 느끼게 된다고 표현할 수도 있겠지만, 그것은 군더더기 말뿐일 수가 있다.
몸도 내 것이 아니며, 에너지도 소유물이 아니라는 깨달음을 얻음으로써, 우주와의 일체감을 경험하게 된다.
이러한 높은 수준의 의식 상태에서, 에너지는 목적지를 향해 안내하게 된다. 그 목적지는 신체적, 감성적 또는 영적인 치유일 수 있으며, 더 깊은 삶의 의미와 목적을 깨닫게 할 수도 있다.
통제라는 개념을 생각지않고 흐르는 에너지에 몸을 맡긴다면, 무한한 가능성과 생각지 못한 잠재력을 순간순간 경험할 수도 있게된다. 과정을 믿고 여정을 받아들이면, 진정한 해방을 찾을 수 있게 된다.
이렇게 아무리 심오한 표현이나 의미심장한 철학이나 이 세상 그 어떤 수준있는 미사여구를 언급할 수 있다해도,
실제 나타나는 현상과 결과는
지극히 단순하고 복잡지않다.
그게 진실이고 팩트다.
모르면 복잡하고 말의 표현이 길다.
그렇게 배우지 않았고,
그렇게 가르쳐 본적이 없으니
알 길이 없다.
진실은 지극히 간단하고
어렵지않다.

El 9 de abril de 2023 se presenta una oportunidad para una sesión de curación única a través de la práctica de la acupuntura. Sin embargo, esta modalidad no es la convencional. En cambio, trasciende el cuerpo físico para acceder al reino sutil de la energía.
Para beneficiarse verdaderamente de esta experiencia, es vital liberarse del control y permitirse entregarse al flujo de energía. Reconoce que eres un simple conducto, un recipiente por el que esta energía pasa, y que no eres el dueño de ella.
En este estado de entrega, uno está libre de los límites del ego y de la individualidad, reconociendo la interconexión de todas las cosas. La realización de que el cuerpo no es propio y que incluso la energía está más allá de la posesión, brinda una sensación de unidad con el universo.
Al sumergirse en este estado elevado de conciencia, la energía lo guiará hacia su destino previsto, ya sea la curación física, emocional o espiritual. Incluso puede revelar un propósito y un significado más profundo en la vida.
Al renunciar al control y permitir que la energía guíe el camino, uno se abre a posibilidades infinitas y potencial ilimitado. Confía en el proceso y abraza el viaje, porque es en la entrega donde encontramos la verdadera liberación.
In French
Une séance de guérison unique par acupuncture aura lieu le 9 avril 2023, mais ce n’est pas une pratique conventionnelle. Au contraire, elle transcende le corps physique pour atteindre le domaine subtil de l’énergie.
Pour bénéficier pleinement de cette expérience, il est essentiel de lâcher prise et de se laisser porter par le flux de l’énergie. Reconnaissez que vous êtes simplement un canal, un réceptacle à travers lequel cette énergie passe, et que vous n’en êtes pas le propriétaire.
Dans cet état de lâcher prise, on est libéré des limites de l’ego et de l’individualité, reconnaissant l’interconnexion de toutes choses. La réalisation que le corps n’est pas le nôtre et que même l’énergie est au-delà de la possession, apporte une sensation d’unité avec l’univers.
En plongeant dans cet état élevé de conscience, l’énergie vous guidera vers votre destinée prévue, qu’il s’agisse d’une guérison physique, émotionnelle ou spirituelle. Elle peut même révéler un but et un sens plus profond dans la vie.
En abandonnant le contrôle et en permettant à l’énergie de guider le chemin, vous vous ouvrez à des possibilités infinies et à un potentiel illimité. Faites confiance au processus et acceptez le voyage, car c’est dans l’abandon que nous trouvons la vraie libération.
What is the Way (Path) of Sword? – Love
What is the Way (Path) of Sword?
Martial arts practitioners often talk about the way of the sword or the path of martial arts,
discussing sword techniques and physical training,
but they also frequently apply it to mental training and connecting to the spiritual world.
Earlier today,
someone on Facebook talked about the techniques of swordplay during an overseas seminar,
trying to sound more knowledgeable by mixing English into the conversation.
Some describe martial arts practice as a way to escape reality
and reach a profound and mysterious understanding through physical exertion.
While the above story is not wrong,
if you can understand the “basics by the principle of nature” more clearly,
it can be an opportunity to further develop yourself.
Based on my experience and thoughts, I will briefly explain it as follows.
“The Way of the Sword (검의 길)” refers to the path of practice (무예의 길),
which leads to the realization of the essence of “the sword of the mind (심검,心劍)”.
The path of practice ultimately involves understanding the principles behind the movement of this world, as well as recognizing its substance. This leads to proper guidance of human life and a change in values and consciousness, ultimately resulting in an improvement in the quality of life.
When we refer to the principles behind the movement of the world, we are not speaking of something grand or profound. Rather, we are referring to “the basic principles” that govern the movement of all things, and their reality.
We are speaking of the flow and reality of the energy that moves all things.
Therefore, the fundamental basis of martial arts training is the “flow of energy”.
When one is able to follow the natural flow of energy, they become aware of its reality and substance through the body and mind, leading to awakening.
Through martial arts training,
one can also gain an understanding of the philosophy and healing principles behind it, ultimately realizing the ultimate goal of human life.
In other words,
the “Way of the Sword” through martial arts training involves understanding the flow of energy and how it works, which becomes the fundamental. The “Way of the Sword” means to naturally move within the flow of energy through sword training and to realize the principles behind it, ultimately leading to the mastery of sword techniques, also known as “Swordsmanship”. Therefore, the “Way of the Sword” refers to the path of practice, which becomes a means to reach the ultimate goal of human life, “Love”.
In the Jinyoung Ssangkum Ryu Haedong Kumdo,
the first in the 21st century to teach the practice of both sword and swordsmanship for its acquirements worldwide.
In sword training, the sword is nothing more than a tool. In the end, through sword training, one must realize the sword of the mind, become aware of the flow of energy through the sword, and thus be able to continue training as a form of healing. Ultimately, the most important point is “the human mind”.
무술 수련자들은 곧잘 “검의 길” 혹은 “무예의 길”을 자주 이야기 하면서,
검의 기술을 논하고, 검의 육체적 수련을 이야기 하기도 하며,
마음 수련, 더나아가 정신 세계와 연결하여, 곧잘 써먹기도 한다.
오늘 오전에도 누군가가 패북을 통해 해외 세미나를 통해
검의 술기를 논하면서 검의 길을 뒤죽박죽 이야기하며서
좀 더 있어보이려는 듯, 그것도 영어와 함께, 노력하는 것이 보인다.
육체적 한계를 버티면서 하는 운동에서 느낄 수 있는
현실에서 벗어난 마음의 상태나 특별하게 가질 수도 있는 느낌을 가지고
심오하게 신비스럽게 뭔가를 알아차린 것 같이 말하기도 한다.
상기의 이야기가 꼭 틀리다는 것이 아니라,
좀 더 확실하게 “기본”을 알 수있다면,
좀 더 자신을 발전시킬 수 있는 계기가 될 수 있기에
본인의 경험과 생각으로 아래와 같이 간단하게 설명해 본다.
“검의 길”은 곧 “수행의 도”를 일컫는 것이며,
“활인검의 이치”와 “마음의 검”을 깨닫게 되는 것을 말한다.
“수행의 도”는 결국 이 세상이 움직이는 이치를 깨닫는 것이며,
또한 그것의 실체를 알아차리는 것이다.
왜냐면 그게 인간 삶을 올바르게 인도하게 되며,
올바른 가치관과 의식의 변화를 가져와서 나의 생각을 바꾸게 되고, 삶의 질이 개선 되기때문이다.
세상의 이치를 움직이는 이치라고 하니까, 뭔가 거대하고 심오한 이치를 말하는 것이 아니라,
만물이 움직이는 기본 이치와 그것의 실체를 말하는 것으로
만물을 움직이는 기운의 흐름과 실체를 말한다.
그래서 무예 수련의 가장 근원적인 기본이 “기운의 흐름”이며,
그 자연의 기운을 따라갈 수 있을 때,
기운의 실체를 몸과 마음으로 자각하게 되어 그게 깨우침으로 연결되며,
무예 수련을 통한 철학이나 치유의 이치를 몸과 마음으로 터득하며,
인간 삶의 궁극적 목적을 알아차리고,
보다 더 나은 무예 수련과 보다 더 나은 삶을 영위할 수 있게 된다는 말이다.
즉 무예 수련을 통한 “무술의 도”는
기운의 흐름을 알아차리고,
어떻게 작동되는 지를 알아차리는 것이
기본이 된다.
즉 무술의 도가 곧 “검의 길”이 되며, 그것은
검수련을 통한 기운의 흐름 속에서 자연스러운 움직임과 기운이 흐르는 이치를 깨닫고,
검의 수련을 터득하는 것이
검의 도라고 하며, 그게 검의 길이다.
따라서 “검의 길”이란
“수행의 도”를 말하는 것이며,
인간삶의 궁극적 목표인 “사랑”에 도달하는
하나의 수단이 된다.
진영쌍검류 해동검도에서는
21세기 처음으로 기무와 쌍검 수련을 통해
그것을 가르치고 있다.
검 수련에서
검은 하나의 도구에 지나지 않는다.
결국 검수련을 통해 마음의 검 (심검의 이치)을 깨달아야,
검을 통한 기운의 흐름을 알아차리게 되어
힐링으로 이어지는 수련이 가능하게 된다.
결국 가장 중요한 포인트는 “마음”이다.
