How Energy and Purpose Shape Our Growth

Energy always follows purpose, and by aligning our habits with a higher purpose, we open the door to awakening and spiritual growth.

The mind creates energy waves. In that way, our purpose in life, that is, our purpose in using the energy we have, determines the level and nature of our energy waves.

So, if some choice becomes a habit in our brains, our energy will always operate at that level. For example, if we choose to practice Hongik and be of benefit to everyone and that becomes a habit, clear energy will operate. On the other hand, if negative, selfish choices become a habit, then “bad”—dark, murky, sluggish—energy will operate. So, for those who often choose to be angry, the energy of anger operates and accumulates significantly. For those who often make joyful choices, a lot of joyful energy operates and accumulates.

Change Habits to Raise Consciousness

Our brains hold information of different levels. The strongest information we have becomes a habit. So, without even realizing it, we end up repeating our habitual behavior.

When we choose a purpose in life, that choice alone does not change everything. We need to continue to remain true to that choice. Even if our purpose is lofty, the energy of our past habits continually pulls down our consciousness. Only the power of consistent choice and action can offset the power of our past habits.

Choice and action for a greater goal, a Hongik vision, activate the energy of heaven and earth (Chunjikiun in Korean), and it will go to work for that vision. Chunjikiun acts as a force that pulls our consciousness up.

The Strongest Energy Dominates

According to the Law of Energy Resonance, waves of the same frequency attract each other. Our temperament reflects the quality of our energy, which differs according to the choices we’ve been making. That’s why people with similar temperaments gather together. The Law of Energy Resonance says that the class of people we meet often changes when we change our energy, such through qigong, yoga, or meditation. Through energy practice, our energy becomes clearer, and therefore our temperament becomes clearer. The clearer our temperament becomes, the more our habits also change.

Among people with different temperaments, their temperaments become more similar the more time they spend together. This change occurs because they exchange information and feelings as their energy mixes. Their energies start to resonate with each other. However, it’s not a simple blending. They do not even or equal out. Their different energies resonate with the strongest wavelength, and they take on that consciousness.

That’s why the consciousness level of the company, organization, and society to which we belong matters. If it’s not high, it can continuously act to pull our consciousness down.

The Power and Influence of Collective Energy

When a whole group of people choose a Hongik vision, it has the power of intense collective energy. That power acts as a force raising the people’s consciousness. It becomes a force defending and protecting people from the waves of the world’s murky, negative energy.

The visible world appears divided into separate entities, but the world of information and energy is all interconnected as one. The energy level of the whole rises to the extent that each individual chooses a benevolent vision and uses Chunjikiun. To the extent that its level rises, the energy of the whole protects each individual and causes them to grow.

When one part becomes brighter, the whole becomes brighter, and the like-minded people who walk the same path become brighter. Before long, the entire world becomes brighter.

Spiritual growth is this process of choosing a Hongik vision and making our energy brighter through our habits for the sake of ourselves, our community, and all of humanity. Our brains rejoice when we declare this choice. For then it knows that we have really found our purpose in using our brain, our purpose in using the life energy within us.
