📖 Introduction

Sometimes, the most profound transformations in our lives come from unexpected places. You might begin a journey searching for ultimate truth, or you might start simply because you are frustrated with your spouse! Regardless of how we arrive, discovering that we can actually let go of the heavy, negative thoughts that weigh us down is a life-changing experience. What happens when you finally discard the anger, preconceptions, and fake mind that have been controlling your life?

In this post, two practitioners share their incredible journeys of inner change through mind subtraction meditation. A 47-year-old shares his deep emotional realization of uncovering the true mind, leading to endless tears of gratitude and joy. Meanwhile, a 38-year-old humorously admits that she only started meditating because she was angry at her husband for spending so much time at the center—only to discover that discarding her own difficulties brought her unexpected happiness, gratitude, and courage.

Read their inspiring stories to discover how emptying the mind can completely change your perspective and turn anger into profound gratitude.

💬 Story 1: “Shedding endless tears of gratitude and joy”

By Eom Tae-woong / Age 47 / Level 7

Through the method of this meditation, I was able to look back on the life I lived and see myself, and as I eliminated the fake me, the real Truth was revealed.

“Above all, I learned through this method that it is possible to change the human mind into the universe mind. The more I think about what blessing I had to encounter this method, the more I shed endless tears of gratitude and joy.”

💬 Story 2: “This meditation started because I got angry at my husband”

By Joo Hye-kyung / Age 38 / Level 2

Because my husband was meditating at the Main Center and wouldn’t come home early, I had a very negative preconception about this meditation. I got so angry wondering what on earth possessed him that he wouldn’t even think of coming home, so out of curiosity about what was so good about it, I started meditating at the local center.

When I passed Level 1 at the local center, I didn’t think there was anything good about it, but after coming to the Main Center and passing Level 2, I realized that my mind could change like this.

“Since I could discard all the things I thought were difficult, after 2-3 days my mind felt so good. As I continued to discard myself, I felt grateful.”

I still have a long way to go, but I thought even if I died there was nothing for me to learn from this practice. Seeing myself changing little by little, I thank everyone. I didn’t think it would work, but through this practice, I take away the courage that I might be able to do it to the end. Thank you.
