📝 ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

God Is God to the Living
After one of my seminars,
a man came up to me and quietly asked
if I could teach him the meditation method.
He was a man of the cloth.
I told him that this meditation was about
repenting one’s sins
and about eliminating oneself completely.
I also told him that this was a method
that could not be practiced alone
and that he should attend a meditation center.
The man also asked why I had made references to God.
I told him that whether or not we call Truth God,
the name is not important.
I also told him that God is God
only to the living –
that the dead have no God.
Truth is Truth to those who have become it,
while there is no Truth for those who have yet to become Truth.

🌱 REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION

God is not just an idea—He is Truth, and Truth can only be known by becoming it.
Those who live in illusion remain spiritually dead.
Through meditation, eliminate falseness and become living. Only then can you truly know God.
