✨ Introduction
🌿 In this symbolic and contemplative teaching, Master Woo Myung reveals that what we perceive as “green mountains” is not the true reality.
People define mountains by their appearance—lush, green, and full of life. But in Truth, appearance has no meaning, and distinctions such as green or barren disappear. 🌄
The true green mountains exist within the mind—pure, original, and beyond perception—yet invisible to those who still see through human concepts. ✨
This teaching asks a profound question:
When will we truly find the green mountains?
🌌 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
Green Mountains
In the days
when there were not many people living in the world,
every mountain was green.
The green mountains that people speak of
are the ones in which the trees are lustrous with green.
But the green mountains of Truth are not those –
green mountains and bald mountains are the same.
The term ‘green mountains’ is one that man has made;
an enlightened person deems them to be non-existent.
The green mountains of the Mind are pure as pure can be,
but it is invisible in the eyes of man.
When will man be able to find the green mountains?
– Woo Myung
