Category: Experiences of Meditation

I used to be so healthy that I didn’t need a single medical checkup in a year. However, one day I began to feel ill and I thought it was just because I stayed out too long in the cold. On July 5th, I ran a fever followed by a severe headache and an upset stomach. I was in severe pain the whole night.
The excruciating pain lasted for two days. It was so bad that I couldn’t go to work and I was eventually rushed to the emergency room at St. Vincent’s Hospital in the evening of July 7th.

I had a few minor experiences while meditating, but today’s healing experience was a first time thing. I have been suffering from diabetes for a long time, so I have always tried to take care of my health. But recently, I had been doing a lot of walking during work and I had massive pain in my legs. Especially from 10 days ago, my legs were all swollen and my feet were hurting. I couldn’t even walk because of the pain.

At first, I stretched my neck and wrists and rotated my shoulders, following the sacred voice of His Holiness the Jondonsanim.

Providing two days of service at a reception room, I really hoped to get the blessing of the dynamic meditation. When the dynamic meditation started, I was working at kitchen and couldn’t leave the place. So, I ended up practicing dynamic meditation in a nearby resident’s room.

Meditation at Singwan, Gongju Dojang was one of the best experiences I have ever had. I am really pleased to receive so much blessing from His Holiness the Jongdosanim.

I had been waving my arms intentionally at every dynamic meditation. But on that day, I felt a great qi coming down on me and my arms stated to move automatically by the guide of the wave of qi. I shook my whole body, my bottom heaving up and down, and my arms waving forcefully. I could not stop moving myself. Just then, I realized that this is what they call ‘to perform dynamic meditation without intention.’ Time flew away just in a second.

I was amazed by the sacred voice of His Holiness the Jongdosanim at the dynamic meditation. The power of His voice and the sound of the drum beats resounded through my heart.

When I was waving my arms during the dynamic meditation, I felt a severe pain in the wrist and shoulder. But I ignored the pain and followed the voice of His holiness the Jongdosanim, constantly moving my arms with clenched teeth.

I saw a vision of a fist-size stone falling from my forehead to the pit of my stomach. Suddenly I started to cough up a small clot of phlegm with white bubbles. As I spit them out a couple of times in the rest room, my stomach became comfortable.

Just following His Holiness the Jongdosanim’s holistic mantra “Ji-gi-guem-ji won-wee-dae-gang”, I was able to gain powerful qi that I had never experienced before. It was fundamentally different from dynamic meditation alone or with a couple of people in a regional Dojang.

In this dynamic meditation during His Holiness the Jongdosanim’s visit, I could not help myself from rotating my left arm in a big circle from back to front with the guidance of powerful qi.

As I let my body follow the rhythm of the Taeulju dynamic meditation, I felt my body shaking off bad things and correcting my back bone, straightening up the cervical spine and backbone where I had problems.
