teaching

i have been teaching at the center for a while–i was scared at first, but now i realize that teaching is not only for the members, but it is for me.  it allows me to really watch myself–to do something despite my thoughts and emotions.  In my head I think I know and do a lot of things, but when I am put in front of 10 members in a class, it really tests me.  I can see what i need to work on, or what i know and can do well.  It is a learning experience.  I think that Ilchi Lee, even when he was enlightened, experienced a lot through his teaching.  I never would have thought in a million years that I would be up in front of people teaching a class, and now it’s happening!  I like that Ilchi Lee emphasizes experience over knowledge.  It is through that that I could do what i am doing now!
