š¬ Full Testimonial: All the Flaws That I See Are Merely Because I Exist
By Kristine / Student
While working at a tutoring center, I happened to come across a pamphlet for this meditation.
At first, I casually flipped through it, assuming it was just another ordinary meditation center. The name sounded so simple that I did not think much of it.
At that time, I was also extremely religious. My spiritual life revolved entirely around the Buddhist temple I had attended since I was five years old. Honestly, I arrogantly dismissed the meditation at first and thought it was probably just another meaningless practice not worth my time.
But during that period of my life, I was struggling deeply inside.
Although I was still young and in high school, I had already begun losing my ambition and sense of purpose. I started feeling that life itself was meaningless.
My mother noticed these struggles long before I openly admitted them to myself.
Eventually, she strongly encouraged ā or rather dragged ā me to the meditation center.
During the first few sessions, I resisted internally. I was stubborn, skeptical, and secretly rejected the practice.
But little by little, something within me began softening.
As I slowly let go of my resistance and sincerely followed the meditation method, I began experiencing something I had never felt before.
It felt like finding a light.
After completing the first and second levels of meditation, I genuinely felt a tremendous burden lift from my shoulders.
Before this meditation, I had constantly tried to āfixā myself through willpower and external effort, but nothing ever created real change within me.
This meditation was different because it offered an actual process ā a practical method for human beings to move toward what many religions and philosophies have spoken about throughout history:
Truth, Heaven, God, Buddha, Nirvana, or ultimate freedom.
For that reason, I feel deeply grateful to have encountered this practice.
Through meditation, I began realizing that my suffering came from my attachment to outer appearances, status, material success, and the image I wanted to create for myself.
Because I could not fully obtain or maintain those things, I constantly felt dissatisfied, empty, restricted, ungrateful, and trapped within my own mental world.
Meditation helped me clearly see that the āselfā I had been protecting and obsessing over was not my true self at all.
I had mistaken my accumulated thoughts, emotions, memories, and attachments ā my āpicture worldā ā as my identity and reality.
But through meditation, I began understanding something much deeper:
In Truth, there is no fixed, isolated āIā that needs to endlessly struggle, compare, protect itself, or suffer.
The false mind and the picture world I had accumulated were never ultimate reality.
As I continued letting go of that false self and those accumulated mental images, I gradually experienced a sense of freedom, gratitude, acceptance, and peace that I had never known before.
I also realized something humbling:
Many of the flaws and problems I constantly saw in the world were reflections of the mind I carried within myself.
As I cleansed my own mind, my perception of the world itself changed.
Now, through this practice, I continue learning how to live with genuine gratitude, acceptance, and openness.
And the more I let go of my false self and accumulated mind world, the freer I become within this living and infinite universe.
Honestly, when seen clearly, it is amazingly simple.
