✨ Introduction
🌌 In this deeply moving and personal message, Master Woo Myung speaks to his mother and sister, expressing both love and transcendence beyond human ties.
This writing reveals the inner journey of one who has left behind ordinary life to fulfill the work of heaven, carrying both compassion and responsibility for all people.
🌿 It reflects the paradox of enlightenment—having no attachment, yet still feeling deep love, longing, and tears that cannot be defined as either sadness or joy.
✨ Through this message, Master Woo Myung shows that true awakening is not separation, but a transformation into a life lived for Truth and for saving others.
📖 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
Mother, Sister
Mother, sister,
listen to my words,
for something miraculous has happened.
I, who knew nothing
and lived an immature life,
am now doing the work of heaven.
I was neither bad nor good,
and my destiny was always to live a difficult life
doing what others do not.
I lived that life, simply accepting it
because it is the will of heaven.
It was my destiny.
All those who left sighs of regret behind them
and went in search of Truth,
they must have had these same feelings,
these feelings, these minds,
of having to leave home and bid the world farewell.
The world of heaven
is the world where I now live,
and in order to teach people of this world,
I am leaving home;
I am leaving home.
I do not have any regrets or sadness,
or indeed any minds at all,
but now that my human mind has changed
and I have become a person of heaven,
now that my human habits are gone
and I am a person of heaven,
tears are flowing down my face
and I do not know
whether they are tears of sadness or joy.
Mother, sister, I am in my land.
I, who had the most childish mind,
have built a house in heaven,
and here in the new heaven
I have become a master,
Mother, sister, I have become a king.
In human years, I am now nearly an old man,
but my mind still seeks you, mother and sister, like a child.
Why am I so like a child?
There is no one to listen to my woes;
I have no choice but to tell the messages of my heart
to you – my mother and sister.
Life flows by like water,
and with it, you aged.
My woes and complaints are simply the minds from my childhood,
and mother, sister, you listened to them all.
Now, there is no one to talk to or lean on.
Saving people is something that I must do,
even if I have to beg –
I must do it, no matter what happens.
It is something I must do
regardless of the obstacles and sufferings that befall me.
But mother, sister, do not worry;
I can tell all people
that I have become a king,
and I can make them my people.
How joyous is this,
and what an honor!
But mother, sister, when I look back,
I have a wife and children
from my life as a human being.
If I have any worries at all,
it is that I worry about how they will live
when I do this work.
I was simply living life as a man,
searching for Truth, perhaps a little more diligently than others,
and I became enlightened through a serendipitous opportunity.
I now know that I am none other than the person who must deliver
the news of heaven,
but I lived as other people did,
devoting my whole body to that life.
Now that life has taken a backseat.
I only do the work of heaven,
but just as when I lived in the human world,
I will devote everything I have.
My wish is like a children’s poem,
and it is to live always with you, mother and sister.
But now I work as a person of the people,
as someone who has left everything –
my mother, sister, wife, and children.
In the past I lived with ties made in the world,
but now I am going back to my place in the origin.
My human mind wishes for you,
mother, sister, and all of your children,
to come to my wonderful world,
but you still see me as only a young boy.
So I go to my land without telling you.
As a person that belongs to the world,
I go to protect it.
If perhaps we should meet again later,
come to my land.
Let’s live there together.
Let’s live there forever.
If we were not able to live as we dreamt,
with affection in the human world,
it was simply because making a living took all of our time.
With that dream left unfulfilled,
again, I leave.If perhaps we should meet again later,
come to my land.
Let’s live there together.
Let’s live there forever.
– Woo Myung
