You're going to explore how our thoughts affect the way we

live our lives and how we experience life, whether we suffer or whether we live life to the fullest. And to help us

understand this, we're going to take a brief look at a Korean monk who lived

centuries ago and was on his quest for enlightenment. His name is

Juan Yo if you want to look him up W-O-N-H-Y-O. He's a beautiful monk who really found out what life is all about.

In his quest to live life to the fullest, he was living in Korea at the time. He felt he could find better books and teachers on Enlightenment in China, so he set out to travel

to China in very difficult times.

He had spent years on studying books of Enlightenment and how to live life to the fullest,

and nothing seemed to work for him. So he decided to go to China and find the old teachers and see if he could find deep meaning there.

On his way to China, he got caught in a gigantic storm and he had to find shelter.

Well, he found this cave, though it was at night and it was very dark and he was extremely tired and thirsty.

And in that cave there was a bull and in the bull, though he couldn't see what it was, was his water.

And he drank that water and it tasted wonderful.

And in the morning when he woke up, he discovered that it wasn't a cave that he was in, but instead it was an old tomb that some people had excavated, and inside the bull that he drank out of was a skull that had dirty mucky water in it.

And from that he realized he had found the answers he was looking for. He realized that how he looked at things

completely changed their reality. It wasn't the reality that mattered. What mattered was how he looked at things.

And with that insight, he went back to Korea because he thought he didn't need to go to China anymore.

And he became one of the greatest teachers in Korea

history. Now how could Wagno's story relate to us? What does he have to teach us?

Well perhaps right now, we are going through some very difficult thing.

Maybe our marriage is ending, maybe we've been diagnosed with cancer,

maybe we've lost our job, maybe we're just struggling
