Abstract
This paper is to find the purpose and meaning of proper practice through the study of Seon practice by Muhakjacho, who practiced infant behavior as a bodhisattva's practice method. To this end, the life and achievements of Muhakjacho and his Seon thought were examined, and Ken Wilber's developmental model of integrated psychology was presented as a research method. As a result, the inner driving force of Muhakjacho was revealed as an integrated world view and a path to awakening. In addition, in the practice of infant behavior, special training was required for proper practice. This is because if you do not distinguish between Nirvana and Priority, there may be a pre/second error in the infant row. Therefore, this study reveals that regular and steady spiritual training and meditation training are necessary.
