Why do we live with so much guilt and regret?
Master Woo Myung explains that regret is not real—it’s a residue of memory.
When we hold onto past mistakes or missed chances, we suffer needlessly.
But when we eliminate the remembered thoughts tied to those regrets, they lose all power.
Freedom begins when we empty the mind.

How to Overcome Guilt and Regret
Many people have regrets about their lives. Only after time passes do people come to have regrets—thinking that their lives could have been better. People also regret the mistakes they made in relationships with others and the wrongdoings of the past. Such regret is no different than a meaningless dream that has already passed.
You can get rid of these regrets from your mind by eliminating the cause of these regrets, which are the related events. When you get rid of all the remembered thoughts of the life you lived, you will have no more regrets.
