Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim teaches about personal choices


I have posted a couple videos - since video production is one of my passions. I feel they really hit the spot....

And today I am back to posting some beautiful words that Grandmaster Kim has shared with her readers:

Seems like we just celebrated New Year and then Easter came in a hurry, Spring is in full swing, and Summer is knocking on the door. Fall is almost here...We usually think about setting new goals and re-evaluation and rebirth only at New Year. But we should use every day as another chance in this life, a chance that we give ourselves to start fresh. Remember, it is our personal choice what we do in this life! It’s our very own choice!

Yes, I hear you, you’ll tell me how you didn’t choose your family, how you didn’t choose your learning disability, and how you didn’t choose being poor. I understand what you are saying, but hear me out: Whatever the circumstances are, no matter how bad they are, what is much more important is how we choose to deal with those circumstances!

Here is how it works:
You need to commit to make a change in your life for the better, you need to purify your body and mind, and you need to set true goals for yourself. And of course you need to put all this into action (and not just think about it!) and make it your new way of life.
I call this Re-birth. Rebirth is actually living the new definition of yourself. Now, instead of drifting along in life, acting and reacting with limited perception, you live with conscious awareness of your connection to your Silent Master consciousness. You now become your own doctor and surgeon, carefully bringing your new self into the world by constantly removing the strangling, stifling thoughts and feelings of your old self.

Rebirth is not something that happens and then ends. Rebirth is an ongoing process, a daily practice that goes on for your entire life. As you continue to move down your life’s path, you will constantly be made aware of changes you need to make and will constantly be reborn as you make those changes.
