What lies beyond the blue sky?
In this poetic reflection, Master Woo Myung shares that Heaven is the sky itself, and it exists without birth or death—just as it is. Yet man, bound by illusions and karma, cannot become Heaven, because he lives through what he sees and thinks, constantly creating turmoil in his mind.
Through Santa Clara Meditation, return to the source of your true nature—and recognize that Heaven is already here.

📝 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
Heaven
Patches of clouds are afloat in the sky.
They spark the fantasies of man.
What exists beyond the blue sky?
There is the endless sky –
the source that is man’s true nature
which has no end.
Though man creates the sky and the patches of clouds,
they simply exist as they are in Heaven.
The sky is Heaven,
but man cannot become Heaven.
Thus man lives bound to so many things.
He is ignorant of the fact that
every single creation in the world is Heaven.
Instead, man grows older daily,
as he constantly creates turmoil in his mind.
Heaven simply exists as it is
without having been born
and without ever dying.
But man is the one who creates all sorts of things
with which he thinks and lives according to
what he sees.
Man lives not knowing that doing so is his karma.
🌱 Reflect at Santa Clara Meditation
Heaven is not beyond—it is already here.
To see it, stop creating illusions and return to your original mind.
