Feeling the Earth’s Soul at Sedona Mago Garden

I am standing in Sedona Mago Garden, located about two hours north of Phoenix, Arizona. This is the breathtakingly beautiful land that has given me not only countless hours of indescribable appreciation for the Earth’s beauty, but has also inspired me to feel more deeply the meaning of ‘Earth’ and ‘Earth-Human.’ Standing here, one can feel the reality of our Earth as it rushes into mind and soul.

Sedona is traditionally sacred land of the Native American tribes in this part of the world, and has been prophesied to be “… a land which will become the center of the coming age by bringing people together in the spirit of peace and reconciliation.” Citizens of this beautiful region often speak of Sedona as a sacred land that will herald the coming of a new spiritual civilization where a worldwide spiritual-cultural movement will find its grandest flowering.

From my first encounter with the land, to its current incarnation as ‘Sedona Mago Garden,’ I have felt indescribable joy and hope, alternating with dark doubts and anxiousness that accurately mirror my history with this piece of heaven on Earth. I first came to the United States in 1993, to introduce the system of Dahnhak and Brain Respiration, a comprehensive system of holistic exercises designed to improve physical, mental, and spiritual health by utilizing the flow of ‘Ki’ energy, or life energy. This system is already a huge success in Korea.

The first thing I did after landing in America was to buy a used car. I then drove across the continental United States, from NYC to LA, and back again. I even stopped in several Canadian cities including Vancouver and Toronto. Although I had the goal of observing and becoming accustomed to the geography and everyday culture of North America, I was also scanning the terrain for a uniquely ‘spiritual’ land. In Korea, I had similarly crossed

the land several times over, until I chanced upon such a place. I purchased it and made it into a renowned retreat center for spiritual reflection. I was positive that I would find such a place in North America, but it was yet hidden from my eyes.

Though it was founded in the 1980s, Dahn Yoga's basic precepts and techniques are directly descended from methods practiced five millennia ago in East Asia. These precepts include the importance of the mind's partnership with the body, as well as the need for a balanced bond between the two.

Today, thousands of Americans practice Dahn Yoga everyday, many of whom are delightedly trying it for the first time. Taking a little time out of one's day to stretch, breathe, pose and meditate with a gentle smile on one's face can radically change one's mood and outlook.

This blog offers responses to news items that prominently feature Dahn Yoga and its neighborhood centers.
