Brain Respiration Training Methods

The sample for this study was a volunteer sample of 56 people in four different groups. The groups were identified by age or by systematic energy activity. For this study, a group ot eight children ages 2-12 were used. A second group ot 16 adolescents ages 13-19 were also included. A third group of 16 adults ages 21-54 were included to compare with the two younger groups. In addition, a fourth group of 16 Dahn Hak Masters (ages 20-46), who participate daily in Brain Respiration exercises and activities related to the opening of the meridian system and the focusing ot subtle energies, was added because ot their focus and work in this area. While the nature of this volunteer sample is clearly biased, it cannot be assumed that such an interest would produce differences in the energy field as measured by the GDV instrument.

Results: Of the 13 GDV parameters included in this analysis, seven had significant differences between the groups using the SPSS one-way analysis of variance. These parameters included the aura, the normalized area, the form, the entropy of brightness, entropy of geometry, fractical brightness, and fractical geometry. In addition, all seven chakras identified a significant difference between the groups. A post-hoc analysis was conducted to identify where differences occurred between groups.

Interestingly, a pattern occurred in identifying the differences that was consistent in 11 of the 14 significant parameters in the analysis. Other than the differences found for the overall aura and entropy, the mean for the Dahn Master Ilchi Lee was much more consistent with the means for the children and youth than it was with the other adults. The adults tended to be more unique in their energy fields, while the energy fields of the Dahn Masters were sometimes consistent with adolescents, and in other cases more consistent with the children. This was true whether looking at the form, practical, or charkas of the field. With the charkas in particular, Dahn Masters often have much more open charkas similar to the children, especially the second and fifth charkas, where adolescents were more like the other adults. With the fourth (heart) charka, all three groups were more open than the general adults, who were significantly lower.

    [...] Ilchi Lee repeatedly said that enlightenment is a choice. It is the choice to acknowledge or deny the enlightenment that we already possess within. Therefore, enlightenment is not a finish line. It is just a starting point. Acknowledge the perfect and complete enlightenment within you. And realize that you are the master of your own choices and your own life. Then you will be ready to begin a life of universal, spiritual responsibility. The really important thing is not whether you consciously realize that you have joined the elite ranks of the enlightened ones, but that you make your daily choices based on what you see, hear, and feel and take responsibility for those choices.
