108 Desperate Meditations to Start Your Day Brightly

"108 Meditations to Start a Dazzling Day" is a collection of prayer meditations that allows you to engrave words of wisdom in your heart by writing one page a day along with the stories of Venerable Beopsang for 108 days, and make small daily resolutions.
Prayers don't come true suddenly one day.
It is as difficult as hoping for a miracle.
But if I could just spend 10 minutes a day feeling grateful for myself, for my neighbors, and for the world, my day could change.
This book helps me change my life little by little by making small daily vows, and by carefully copying each and every phrase of the story meditation, I can internalize the teachings as they are in my own thoughts without discerning or distorting the ways of the world.
The prayers that have been prayed for 108 days will accumulate and lead the lives of our readers to shine.

Into the book
If we just read, our brains cannot absorb it as it is, but rather filter it through our own self-discrimination consciousness and distort it.
However, if you carefully copy each and every letter, you will be able to absorb the teachings as they are without any filtering into your own thoughts.
The meaning deepens, penetrates the filter of discernment, and reaches the wisdom of the abyss.

--- From the "Preface"

When you become extremely fond, obsessed, or prejudiced, you are driving yourself into suffering.
It is even easy to harass others.
Don't have anything you 'must' do or anything you 'absolutely' shouldn't do.
There is no such thing.
Things in this world may or may not always turn out that way.

--- From "Chapter 1, Extremes"

Happiness doesn't come when some perfect situation is in place.
When you enjoy happiness, that perfect situation is created.
The belief that something is necessary or that certain conditions must be met in order to be happy is an illusion.
Happiness doesn't need anything.

--- From "Chapter 1, The Perfect Situation"

We are all one, not separate, individual beings.
It's as if there are all kinds of people, things, and stories in a dream, but all of that dream life actually belongs to one 'dreamer'.
Therefore, what I do to others is what I do to myself.
If you want something, do it to the other person first.
Then you will receive it.

--- From "Chapter 2, Mirror"

Stand before all beings with the same mind as you would stand before a loved one, or as you would stand before a respected teacher.
If I have a heart that respects, admires, and admires all things in the world, and a sense of solidarity that they are no different from me, that heart will elevate me.
When I respect the world, I too receive respect from the universe.

--- From "Chapter 3, Nobility"

If possible, create a large, bright, round, and selfless circle.
Just let go of the obsession with the outcome, that the circle must be completed.
Just draw a circle and move forward, and leave the results to the universe.
At that time, the power of the circle becomes the strongest.
Because I have the mindset that it's okay whether it works or not, I don't have to be afraid of what to do if it doesn't work out.
You are most powerful when you act purely and fearlessly on what you desire.
--- From "Chapter 4, Origin"

Mercy and love have no reason.
You should love not because of something, but despite any faults.
You should not love someone because they are worthy of love, but you should be willing to love even the parts that are difficult to love.
Never love 'because of that', but always love 'despite that'.
Love has no conditions.
I just love you.
--- From "Chapter 4, Love Still"

Publisher's Review
A small action that changes my life in 10 minutes a day!
The habit of strengthening your mind with the words of Venerable Beopsang!!


"108 Meditations to Start a Dazzling Day" is a collection of prayer meditations that allows you to engrave words of wisdom in your heart by writing one page a day along with the stories of Venerable Beopsang for 108 days, and make small daily resolutions.
The author leads the YouTube channel 'Monk Beopsang's Moktak Sound', which transcends religion and connects with 160,000 subscribers. He is at the forefront of conveying words of wisdom to many people through detailed yet unconventional, easy yet powerful stories.
The regular weekly Dharma service of Venerable Beopsang, held in real time, is a place for mental study, with over 1,000 people participating online and offline each time. Just by listening to the monk's words, people feel their suffering disappearing and their lives changing.

The author of “108 Meditations to Start a Brilliant Day,” Venerable Beopsang, said, “I hope that those who read and write this book will be able to change their lives and escape suffering through just one phrase.” He guides us to take good care of our minds by reading and writing with this book for even 10 minutes a day.
As we listen to the precious words of Venerable Beopsang and write them down one letter at a time, we will realize how dazzling our daily lives truly are.


Why Desperate Meditation?

In Buddhism, the Buddha's words have been handed down in their entirety by copying them under the name of Sagyeong since long ago.
In particular, copying down the words of wisdom is an important practice that allows us to deeply contemplate their meaning and embody the teachings.
In that sense, when copying scriptures, one writes one character and bows once or three times, as in 'one character one bow' or 'one character three bows'.
As such, copying scriptures is one of the important practices in Buddhism.
The author emphasizes that no matter how good the words are, if we just read them, our brains cannot absorb them as they are, but rather filter them through our own discernment and distort them, so 'copy meditation' is important, in which we press down on each word and absorb the teachings as they are with our own thoughts without filtering them.
This book helps you deepen your thinking through narrative meditations on four themes and written meditations, and helps you reach the wisdom of the abyss without discrimination through the teachings as they are.
