With absolute True, and Pure Love
▶ First Step : Relax, And Feel The Energy
▶ Second Step : Focus, And See It
▶ Third Step : Realize, And Do
At the first Haedong Kumdo Seminar in Finland, back in 2007, I told the participants there to ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’.
Some time later at the first Scandinavian Championships and Spiritual Growth Seminar in Helsinki,
I expanded on this and spoke on the subject of ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’, supplemented by ‘Focus, And See It’.
Now as the next Spiritual Growth Seminar in Greece is getting closer, I am preparing to expand the lectures yet again, from ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’, and ‘Focus, And See It’, to ‘Realise, And Do It’.
When we train in Haedong Kumdo, Relaxation is the key to success.
We must at all times remain flexible in our body and in our sword work so that we can create the angle, and appropriate power as necessitated by the situation at hand.
As we continue to train in this way, day by day, we begin to realised, over time, the benefits for our life which we receive through Haedong Kumdo training.
This is simply because the principles of Haedong Kumdo are in line with the principles of The Nature.
As an example, I sometimes need to remind trainees to Relax. Without Relaxation, they cannot hope to ‘Feel The Energy’.
Whatever we do, whether in the Dojang, at School or at Work, if we can relax in ourselves, and with ourselves, we can cleanse our body and our mind. In this cleansed state, we can broaden our view of the world and allow creativity to flow in our lives.
If we train in Haedong Kumdo over a long period of time and if we can remember to ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’, we can build the energy within our own bodies, and everything will become easier for us.
As I have already said, in Greece, in May 2011 I am going to emphasise the need to ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’. I truly hope that many people can come and join in at this event and that we can have a good time together, creating happy memories of training under the joint subjects of ‘Relax, And Feel The Energy’, ‘Focus, And See It’, and ‘Realise, And Do It’.
Take pride in your Haedong Kumdo practice as it is delivered to each of you with absolute True, and Pure Love, with the wish of great Happiness, and Enjoyment for you all in your lives.
