Campbell Meditation Benefits - Are You Still Worrying About Life? This Meditation Changed Me
Ho-ki Baek / Dentist
Living such a trite course in life, I always hoped for a “special life.” First as a dentist in the hospital, and later after opening my own practice, I lived inside a life that I thought was mundane. I earned money, built a building, rented out the bottom floors, made the upper floors my dental office and home, and was soon turning 60.  I hated my life that seemed so ordinary and I deeply wanted to live a different life. But I just couldn’t figure out how to live that different life, that special life.

I always wanted a special life but constantly felt anxious and felt that something was missing

The most I did was become engrossed in playing tennis every night. Somehow, I never even got married.  And then through my brother’s recommendation, I started to do this meditation. As I followed the method and meditated, I felt that even if the Nobel Prize were given to this meditation that was not sufficient. Throwing away one mind at a time and feeling the load on your chest lighten was worth more than a Nobel Prize.

My pride was strong, I was very stubborn, and I had a lot of attachments. I had to be better than others.  So I dwelled on a lot of things. I would compare my office to other dental offices and put myself down. I would go to multiple seminars to make a better me. That still wouldn’t be enough so I would travel abroad to more seminars.

Regardless of whether there were no patients, or if there were a lot of patients, I would be stressed. I was always anxious and always felt something was lacking. After opening my office, I lost so much weight it became noticeable to others.

But surprisingly in a good way, all those minds that made it difficult for me disappeared easily. Although this method cannot be physically seen, it was amazing. I wondered how this method was ever even developed? I felt that giving the Nobel Prize or the likes of it to the person who founded this method would not be wasted.

Living Without Any Worries Or Anxiety Is That Special Life

Right now, I am truly joyful and happy. At my office, there are three employees and myself who live together. When I came back from the meditation center, I really started to move my body for the first time. I emptied the office trash and cleaned the office together with the others. I used to think that kind of work was only for my employees.  All the hard work that I used to hire other people to do, now I try to do most of it myself. I eat together with my employees, and keep my own room open to my employees.

Rather than a hierarchical relationship, we began to have a comrade-like relationship. Naturally the atmosphere got better, different from before. So when the patients came to the office, for some reason they mentioned how at ease they felt. And I started to have the desire to put my all into caring for my patients when dealing with them as each and every patient relationship became precious to me.
Before in the past, I didn’t do difficult surgeries, not because I couldn’t but because it was too bothersome. But now I do all the surgeries no matter how much time they take. Also, in the past, I never treated any children. Treating children took a lot of time and caring for them wasn’t easy. But now, I treat the children the same way as I treat the adults. I used to always worry about things that might happen and planned what would need to be done if such things happened, even though they never happened.

Also, for the small mistakes, I would wonder why I did that and what to do next. These days, I barely have any worrying thoughts and am no longer worrying ahead of time. It is so amazing to me. I barely have any stress, and now live with peace of mind. And of course, I got healthier and gained weight. My body looks better than ever and I am maintaining my weight as well.
Even those around me say my face looks better and that I am looking younger every day. They say I look like I’m in my early 30s, and perhaps it is because I am not married yet, but it makes me feel good to hear that.

Campbell Meditation Experience - Meditation Taught Me To Accept The World

  Campbell Meditation Experience – Meditation Taught Me To Accept The World Gadhi Asan – Campbell, CA Before I discovered this meditation, I really felt like I had reached the end of my rope. I felt like there was always a big, heavy stone in my chest and the pain was so bad that I wasn’t sleeping well. It was stress. I was barely living, carrying the everyday stress and difficulties of my life. Then, I found this meditation. At that time, I started this study sincerely with the intention of getting even a little relief. Even though I have never practiced meditation, this method, made by Woo Myung, was very simple and fun to do. One of the things about this study that I enjoyed was that I could look back on myself. Since I was a child, I had so much inferiority that I always hated losing to others. My tendency was to focus on winning whenever I competed with others. This made my life very lonely because I was always uncomfortable around other people. And other people were uncomfort...

Teacher Woo Myung Poem – The Life You Lead

The Life You Lead If you were to ask me what this life is that you are living, I would tell you that there is no Truth in that life. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is one of Truth, I would tell you that your burdens are heavy. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is exciting, I would tell you that you are dreaming an exciting dream within a dream. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is an exhausting one, I would tell you to let go of your useless greed. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is nonsensical, I would tell you that there is no such thing as life or death. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is wrong, I would tell you that it is because you have an attachment and greed for life. If you were to tell me that the life you are leading is savory, I w...

Campbell Meditation Experience - After all these years, I have finally found God within Sue / Real Estates Agent / Cupertino / CA

After all these years, I have finally found God within Sue / Real Estates Agent / Cupertino / CA When I look back at my life, I realize how fortunate I was in so many respects. Among those many things I am so grateful for, I am most grateful that I have finally found God within me. Growing up in a stressful living situation where my parents fought almost daily, I would often lie in bed at night, and even before the age of 5 and I would ponder about why I had been born into such an unhappy family. I prayed to God every night – even though I didn’t know what God looked like or where God was – to please make it all stop somehow. I desperately wanted to be a happy, carefree child who wanted to be loved and feel accepted. And even at that tender age, I wanted to know the meaning and purpose of my existence. I wanted to know where people go to after they died, because truthfully, as unhappy as I was, I did not want to ever die. Growing up, I attended Cal...
