Course Description
Overview
Have you ever seriously reflected on yourself? It is difficult to do because you spend your busy life every day with so much to do. Therefore, you are always looking forward, looking ahead. It is not easy to stop and take time to reflect on yourself. Research shows that if you reflect on yourself through meditation or writing a diary, you can work more efficiently and become a successful leader.
In this lecture, I will introduce a practical methodology of self-reflection meditation. It is also a sustainable methodology you can practice in ordinary life. You will check your path in life, and you can understand yourself better in social relationships. You can concentrate on the purpose of your life through self-reflection. Examples from nature and air vehicles are also used as corollaries to demonstrate how to live a fulfilling life.
After reflecting on yourself according to this
methodology, you will know clearly your character, your pattern of response,
past trauma and your current problems.
If you eliminate the negative mind of the causes of the problem, your
inner positive strength will be revealed. And more, you will also learn the
methodology to live a free and complete life. It is highly recommended for students with
engineering and science backgrounds to enroll in such a
humanities course to achieve a balanced education and life.
Human completion is to exceed your boundaries and live with your neighbors in the world in happiness and harmony. This is a totally new methodology.
