💬 Meditation Testimonial: From Emptiness to True Confidence
By Jae Joo N. | Vice President, Incheon Hoonjeung Co.
I lived my entire life without confidence.
Even when I had something to say, I would hesitate—thinking, “What if I’m wrong?”—and keep it to myself.
Whenever that happened, alcohol gave me the courage I lacked.
As I grew older, life itself began to feel empty and lonely.
Even though I had a home I worked hard for and a loving family, I felt no real satisfaction. To fill that emptiness, I would call friends and go out drinking—seven days a week.
🍷 When Alcohol Could No Longer Fill the Emptiness
In my mid-50s, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism caused by stress and drinking.
Around that time, I was introduced to this meditation.
As I began practicing this meditation, I came to realize something important.
As a child, my greatest wish was simply to eat as much white rice as I wanted. That poverty, along with the feeling that I was less educated than others, had created deep inferiority within me.
Without realizing it, I had been living my entire life trapped in the past—using alcohol to cope with those feelings.
🌱 Discovering True Fulfillment Through This Meditation
As I discarded those false, accumulated minds through this meditation, I came to realize that my true nature is the infinite universe.
Within that universe mind, there is no lack.
It does not matter whether I have a lot of money or not, or whether I live well or not. None of those things define me.
As I deeply realized this truth, confidence naturally filled my heart.
I became able to act with ease and confidence in front of anyone.
I no longer needed the power of alcohol.
Because of my work, I still attend social gatherings where alcohol is present. But now, I simply say, “Alcohol doesn’t suit me well these days,” and naturally limit myself.
After about three to four months, something even more surprising happened.
My chronic hyperthyroidism completely disappeared.
🌿 A Completely New Life
I often wonder what my life would look like if I had not found this meditation.
The change has been so profound that it feels like a mudfish has transformed into a dragon.
I feel nothing but deep gratitude.
