Introductory Notes
English translation
1.
Until now,
we
have lived
a left-brain-centered
life.
2.
A left-brain-centered
life
refers to
a dualistic life
of choosing
one over another,
centered
around
thought.
3.
Consequently,
the human being
and the world
have become skewed
toward
a male-dominated society,
a materialistic society,
and a society
of omnipotent
science and technology.
In the end,
this is what
we have
become.
4.
Therefore,
to rectify
the human being
skewed toward the left brain,
through the cultivation
of the right brain,
our left and right
must be balanced,
and our brain
and heart
must commune,
so that we may undergo
a complete transformation
into a mature
human being;
we have reached
the critical moment
where we must
do so.
5.
Depending on
the degree to which
the right brain is cultivated,
the inner self
will be valued
along with the outer,
women
will be valued
along with men,
spirit
will be valued,
not just matter,
and the evolution
of consciousness
will be valued,
not just
science and technology.
Thus,
a completely
balanced
human being
and world
will be
born.
6.
The question
is,
how
to cultivate
the right brain
of a human being
skewed toward the left brain,
so that
the left and right
may collaborate,
becoming
a harmonious pair
of Yin and Yang.
7.
If the left brain
is the form of time,
the right brain
is the form of space.
8.
If the left brain
is analytical,
the right brain
is holistic.
9.
If the left brain
is extroverted and masculine,
the right brain
is introverted and feminine.
10.
Therefore,
now is the time
to devote
our heart and soul
to the cultivation
of the right brain,
which has been
long delayed.
11.
Here lies
a groundbreaking path
to right-brain-cultivation.
12.
You only need
to shift
to a life of
Dora-bom,
Bara-bom,
and Neul-bom.
13.
Living in such a way,
you become
the very one
who takes your place
in infinite space
and sets eternal time
in motion.
14.
All wishes
are fulfilled.
15.
This book
must not
be merely read
and understood.
16.
You must read it
repeatedly
until the "Life of Neul-bom"
takes root
and becomes
fully internalized.
