Ilchi Lee Biography

Ilchi Lee is one of the most popular and richest Academic who was born on December 23, 1950 in Cheonan, Cheonan, South Korea. Ilchi Lee was born in 1950 in Cheonan, South Korea. His father was a teacher, yet he reports having struggled in school due to his inability to focus and a preference for imaginative play. Later in life, he would identify himself as having overcome Attention Deficit Disorder through rigorous physical and mental training. He suggests in his books that these early experiences formed the foundation of the brain-based training techniques he would develop later in life.

Lee says that although the underlying philosophy has remained the same, he continues to “refine and improve” the methods. He recounts in one newspaper report that the techniques have evolved from breathing methods to meditation to its current emphasis on the brain. An early English-language book by Lee, Dahn Meditation, which was published in 1997, focuses primarily on Ki development through Lee’s “practical and modern” version of traditional Korean Dahn Hak techniques and does not mention any exercises specific to brain development. The book describes stretching exercises (“do-in”), meditation for energy sensitivity (“ji gam”), energy dance (“dahn mu”), and energy building exercises (“haeng gong”).

The South Korean Government conferred the Order of Civil Merit on Lee in 2002, honoring his dissemination of Korean traditional philosophy and culture throughout the world through his founding of the Institute for Traditional Korean Cultural Studies (국학원 Gukhakwon, also known as the Kukhak Institute), an educational non-profit organization devoted to the study and development of traditional Korean philosophy

In 2005, a wrongful death lawsuit was filed against Lee and other defendants over the death of Julia Siverls, a Body & Brain center member, during a training hike. On November 13, 2006, the Court dismissed all claims against Lee, finding that “There is no evidence that Dr. Siverls-Dunham’s death, or even her presence in Arizona, arose out of a transaction of business by Lee.”

Through this and other affiliated NGOs and projects, such as ‘Erecting 369 Tan-gun Statues in Schoolyards’, which proved controversial in Korea in the late 1990s, Lee contributes to the revival of Korea’s nationalist movement by mobilizing large numbers to revere Korea’s legendary 2333 BCE divine founding father Tan’gun [or Dangun, Tan-gun, Dahngun], an indigenous tradition said to exist prior to the influence of foreign religions. Lee advances the belief that Tan’gun practiced a 15,000-year-old Korean value called ‘Hongik Ingan Ewah Saegae’ (‘Widely benefit humanity, rightfully harmonize the world’) and that an ancient scripture exists, ‘Chun Bu Kyung’ [or Cheonbugyeong], that reveals that Heaven, Earth, and Human exist as One in each person. Lee maintains that this is the core Korean spirit that will prove key to Korean reunification as well as world peace, an ideal he contends to be attainable through his ‘brain education’ programs – resulting in a ‘one world communal culture’ of perfectly healthy and peaceful ‘Power Brains’ or ‘New Humans’.

Lee Seung-Heun (Korean: 이승헌 ; Hanja: 李承憲 ; born December 23, 1950), better known as Ilchi Lee, is a South Korean author and the founder of a variety of mind-body training methods, including Dahnhak (丹学), Body & Brain, Brain Respiration (old name), Brain Wave Vibration, Kookhak Qigong, and DahnMuDo, all falling under the umbrella name of Brain Education. Lee began teaching his methods in a park in the 1980s, and since that time the practice has developed into an international network of for-profit and non-profit entities.

In his adolescence he turned to the martial art of Taekwondo to help calm his restless mind. He eventually earned a fourth-level black belt, and opened a successful martial arts studio. He took the first term of Taekwondo master education hosted by Kukkiwon in 1972. After he graduated from Dankook University in 1977 with a B.S. degree in clinical pathology and physical education, he opened a health clinic, which according to his own account did well.

The Sedona Ilchi Meditation Center is described as “the home from which the ideals of Tao Fellowship may flower and go forth to awaken the human consciousness,” and as the location of 12 energy vortexes (Sedona is believed by many visitors and locals to contain healing energy vortexes.) Described by Dr. Woo as the “heart of the ‘world mission’ or ‘global management,'” SIMC hosts 3,000 participants annually from around the world in a variety of programs based in Lee’s Brain Education system, including youth camps, residential healing, retreat programs and advanced Dahn training programs such as Dahn Healer School.
