✨ Introduction
⚡ Can enlightenment happen instantly?
🌿 Master Woo Myung teaches that while many believe in sudden enlightenment, true awakening comes through a gradual process of cleansing the mind.
🌌 The mind is filled with accumulated karma and attachments, making instant transformation extremely difficult.
💡 Enlightenment occurs step by step, in proportion to how much one has discarded and purified.
📖 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
Sudden Enlightenment
People think that they can know Truth
and be enlightened of it in an instant,
but man becoming completely Truth
is a difficult thing indeed.
The sins and karma
that are trapped inside man’s attachment-filled mind
are too many
and so such a mind becoming Truth in one attempt
is impossible.
Enlightenment comes in proportion to
how much one has discarded
the sins and karma he has as an individual.
I have guided countless people in this meditation,
but there has been no one
who was able to be enlightened all at once.
One is enlightened as much as one has been cleansed.
Once one has been completely enlightened,
God, who is the Creator, must enter into
the delusions and thought-mass in his forehead;
only then does one have nothing more to be cleansed of.
– Woo Myung
🌠 Reflect at Santa Clara Meditation
At Santa Clara Meditation, enlightenment is approached as a process of continuous cleansing and transformation.
⚡ Enlightenment is not instant—it grows as one discards the false mind.
🌿 True awakening comes step by step, until only Truth remains.
