1st Dan Black Belt – 1st Gup Ilyeo 일여

Ilyeo 일여 [Ilyeo] Oneness

In Buddhism the state of spiritual cultivation is said to be “IlYo”(Oneness), in which the body and the mind, the spirit and the substance are unified into one. It should be the state in which one has discarded all worldly desires. The ultimate ideal of Taekwondo is this state of “IlYo”. In this state mentality of “nirvana” one overcomes ego and is in true harmony with nature. The final aim of Taekwondo is indeed a discipline in which we concentrate attention to every movement, shaking of all worldly thoughts and obsessions.
