- Gim Gwahng-chahn’s Complaint
- 1 In November, Gim Gwahng-chahn, who awaited gae-byuk with impatience, frequently and loudly complained.
- 2 “I have followed our Great Teacher in order to quickly see a new world, neglecting my family for several years.
- 3 So much time has passed, I cannot face my wife and children. I should just kill myself.”
- 4 “Gae-byuk arrives when the time and circumstances are right,” Sahng-jeh-nim explained. “Ease your troubled mind and stop acting foolishly.
- 5 It has been said, ‘The work proceeds smoothly, depending on me; the work proceeds chaotically, depending on me.’
- 6 Emulate the poise of Zhang Liang and the impartiality of Zhuge Liang.”
