π‘ INTRODUCTION
Why does heaven not respond to cold minds, no matter how clever or studious?
In this profound writing, Master Woo Myung warns against the snake-like mindβa mind full of cunning, calculation, and detached intellect.
π Heaven only receives minds that are warm with sincerity, not those full of slyness and pride.
No amount of dry practice, intellectual pursuit, or rigid effort can open the gates to heaven. Only through genuine repentance that arises from the whole warmth of the body and soul can one be accepted into Truth.
This message is not just spiritualβit is deeply human. It reminds us to cast away cold-hearted ambition and return to oneness with heaven through true humility and warmth.

π ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
The Mind of a Viper
Man looks at the sky
with the mind of a viper,
but heaven does not accept
the snake-like mind.
Heaven only accepts minds
that are delivered with warmth.
A study or practice done devoid of wisdom,
with the head, and with a cold body,
is far from heaven.
Only when one repents with a mind
that carries the warmth of the whole body
does heaven accept,
and without such warmth,
it is not received.
Man thinks of heaven
with his snake-like mind;
he tries to build castles in the sky
with a snake-like mind,
but heaven does not allow any falseness at all.
Only Truth is permitted and lives.
Heed the fact that sly cunningβ
what is done only with the headβ
cannot possibly reach the true will of heaven.
You and I are one,
and one with heaven,
but if you do not know this,
you are the most lost of all.
