About the Course

Do we truly think that we have lived for ourselves? Perhaps we have lived for money, love, fame, family and pride etc.? Therefore, we don’t seem to be satisfied even though we are full of those things. It is because that we don’t know ourselves. Eric Fromm talked about human nature as two modes of being: “To Have” and “To Be”. If we are “Having” the nature of possessions, we are not satisfied, and feel empty and futile. Then, how can we be “Being” the nature of our inner-selves? Sometimes, we happened to be aware of this “Being” nature and try to change ourselves, but fail. But, because of our daily routines, it’s easily forgotten. And more it is hard to escape from our unwanted minds controlling us. From now on, let us reflect on ourselves and look at our minds leading up to today! Don’t we achieve our goals after knowing ourselves? And let us find the “Being” nature of our original selves after escaping from the minds restraining and controlling us. In this lecture, the definition and principle of the mind are explained in simple and clear ways. You can make sure and practice the methodology of finding the true original mind of inner-self by escaping from the false mind of possession. Self-reflection is the first step to meditate. You can know yourselves most objectively through meditation and you will realize that all the thoughts and actions are due to your minds which are nonexistent and false. If you throw away the false mind, you will find the true mind. Meditation is now world-wide sensation. There are many research reports that show people can be leaders if you have a habit of self-reflection through meditation. Now meditation at school and the workplace are popular. Happiness is having no worries. You can really relax yourself if there is no bundle of thoughts and you can be successful when you know yourself truly. Worries come from the memorized thoughts of the false mind. Your inner potential of positive power are revealed, your peaceful and happiest mind will be in your mind, and you can live the life you wanted through meditation. This method of meditation is very practical and everybody can follow the methodology. As an engineer, I will guide you step by step to practice this meditation. I am sure that this lecture becomes a turning point in your life....

The course was very interesting and easy to go through! The real challenge starts now when I have to apply all the knowledge gained. As we already know "knowing is only half the battle".

I would have liked to see more outside resource articles regarding this method rather than slides as the resource material to read after each lecture. The Interviews were a good addition. Overall informative but the repetition of continued subtraction of meditation could have been placed separate of the lecture to make it flow better and more lecture material added in place of the meditation. This would make the course more refined and worth the Certificate.

I found this course to contain many valuable insights and interesting concepts, especially for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of meditation. However, I felt that the pace was quite slow and at times overly repetitive, which made it challenging to stay fully engaged. Despite this, I truly appreciate Dr. Lee’s passion, his genuine desire to help, and the spirit of sharing that comes through in his teaching.

The overall message provided in the course is good and I learnt a new technique and way of meditating. However, the standard of English was quite poor and difficult to follow at times. Most challenging was the wording of the questions in the Quiz at the end of each week. Due to the poor use of words, I often had no idea if I had chosen the right answer.

Great idea, poor implementation. Maybe because English is not my native language I had a hard time following the class instructions from professor Dr. Lee.

During meditations instructions were not clear enough for me to be useful.

Give me one good reason why you do not use native english speakers. the course is absolutely impossible to do just because of this very important bit. How much more would it cost, just to let a native english speaker put in the text? These video's are impossible to understand!

El inglés del señor es INSUFRIBLE no hay manera de escucharlo y concentrarse, por fuerza hay que leer los CCs y eso no te permite relajarte ni meditar ni un poco
