마냥 입으로만 따지는 사람들


입으로만따지는사람들

주위(周圍)떠돌아다니는말에

李相奉의사람들이상봉제자의특징이라는것이있습니다.

쉽게말해서

이상봉에게서배운학생들(Students)이야많이있습니다만

그들中에서학문적인학생의단계를넘어서,

이상봉의가르침-InnerCircle-()으로들어온

제자들(Disciples)에게는특징이있다!’라는소리인데

그러면,특징이무엇이냐?하면

(1)“Sang’sMeditatonTechnique(상봉道)통하여특수한경험을하였는가?”

(2)“철학적으로종교(宗敎)확실하게벗어났는가?”

(3)“남다른장끼(長技)특기(特技)가지고있는가?”

(4)“BallRoomDance아는가?”하는것들입니다.

(잠깐!이것은그냥제가농담삼아서꺼낸소리일입니다.!!)

학교에서학생들을지도하다보면

(또는개인적으로사람들을가르치다보면…)

각양각색의인간들을보게되어있는데

예를들어서어떤방법(Technique)가르쳐주면,

방법을자기스스로부지런히수련하고공부하여서

자기자신의발전에사용해야되겠거늘

자기스스로수련이나실천은전혀하지를않고서,

마냥입으로만따지기를좋아하고있는사람들이많고도많다!

(겉으로야질문이라고하고있지만서도…)

교수님의방법이OO것보다낫다!말씀입니까?”

박사님의방법이요가식이나불교식보다좋다는입니까?”

?그렇게해야만되고어째서좋은입니까?”라고

입으로만따지고있는사람들이아주많다!

(그럼,그런사람들이‘OO제대로알고있을까요?

아니지요!OO것도전혀모르고있고

또한요가식도불교식도전혀모르고있지요!)

따라서,결론부터이야기를하면

나를교수님,선생님이라고부르지를말던가?

나를교수님,선생님이라고부르면서나의학생으로있으려면,

내가가르치는방법(Technique)제대로따라서해야만되는아닌가?

분명한것이있으니그것은,바로,

내가때에,방법이확실히좋고효과가있으니까,

방법을가르치고있는것이지

만약에,다른방법이좋고효과가있다면,

내가뭣하러방법을가르치겠는가?

그리고,더욱분명한사실이있으니

그것은,다른사람의방법이나에게는전혀효과가없었으니까

내가,방법을생각해내고개발해내게것이아닌가?

따라서방법보다좋은것을가르치는사람이있으면?

사람에게로가면되는아닌가?

나에게따지고말고이유가전혀없지않은가?

쉽게설명을하기위하여例를들어보아야되겠다!

아주쉬운例로사랑이라는것을가지고서설명을하여보면

서로,일단,사랑을하게되었으면,사랑의날개를얻게되었으면

부터는,서로서로믿고서,둘이서함께노력하여,

사랑의날개를저어서멀리멀리날아가야만되는것이아닌가?

그런데입으로는사랑한다!’하고있으면서

나를얼마나사랑하는데?”“정말로나를사랑하는거야?”

당신이나를사랑을한다는것을내가어떻게있어?”

어떤책에서보니까사랑의유효기간은고작1년반에서

2정도가된다!되어있던데

그렇다면우리의사랑은언제쯤에끝이오나?”

사랑이끝나게되면우리의관계는어떻게되는거야?”라고,

허구헌날,따지고만있으면어떻게되겠는가?

본인스스로이것은사랑이아니다!’또는사랑이없다!’라고,

느껴지면,그만끝내고떠나면되는아닌가?

(또는자기의마음에드는사람,자기를많이사랑해주는사람이있다면,

쪽으로가면되는아닌가?)

그런데본인스스로사랑이라고부를조차도없다!’하면서도

떠나지를못하고

자기를사랑하고있는상대방을끝없이괴롭히고있는이유가도대체뭔가?

끝으로참고삼아서

내가,헤어지는것에대한조언하나들려주겠다!

상대방을철천지원수로생각하면,그만치잊기가힘들어진다!”

일반적으로생각때에는,

상대방을원수로생각하게되면상대방이꼴보기가싫어서

쉽게잊혀질같지만실제로는결코그렇지가않다!

상대방을원수로생각하면그만치잊혀지지않게되어있다.

거기에는확실한이유가있는데이유는?
