INTRODUCTION
✨ In this clear and insightful teaching, Master Woo Myung explains the real cause of mutation in living organisms. Each being—humans, animals, plants—has its own unique chromosome, and mutations occur only on rare occasions when different chromosomes meet.
Mutations may alter size, shape, or color, but never the original nature of the organism. They are not caused by environmental factors or long-term exposure. Even when pollution causes deformities, these are not mutations, because the organism’s essence remains unchanged. 🌱
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
What causes the mutation of living organisms?
Every living organism has its own unique chromosome; man has man’s chromosome, and plants have their own chromosome. Mutation occurs on rare occasions when the chromosomes of different organisms meet. While the mutation may make something larger, smaller, or change its shape, it does not change what it essentially is – its original nature.
Mutation is not caused by environmental factors. Mutation happens suddenly, not through long exposure to a certain environmental factor. When people or fish are affected by environmental pollution, such as curvature of the spine, it cannot be called mutation. When something mutates, its shape, size, and color may change, but what it essentially is does not.
