Experience, Meets Myself
Several decades ago, Chung underwent a sea of change in his in-
ner life with an experience he had in his late 20s. When he went
through a torturous time in desperate conditions, he practiced to
endure pain in his mind and body like the path to enlightenment.
That was not to catch his breath, sitting still but to roll around on
the floor in agony. He encountered “that thing in the inner self”
while rolling around on the floor: that may be a spiritual being
or divine being. This brought a sweeping change in his perspective
including his view of life and art. He still considers this the most
critical turning point in his life.
