💡 INTRODUCTION

Master Woo Myung beautifully compares the journey of life to flowing water, naturally undulating, sloshing, and crashing through various circumstances. He reveals a profound universal truth: every creation, including humanity, lives according to its inherent “image” or shape, and within this image resides its mind. Everything in the universe is born from the ultimate source—the harmonious balance of the original foundation—reminding us that we are all interconnected expressions of the one pure and wondrous existence.

📖 EXCERPT BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

Life is like flowing water. Water undulates in the wind. It sloshes and crashes. Its stories are the same as man’s: as he lives his life, man will come across a cow, a monk, and other countless events. […]

Everything that exists lives according to its image. Within its image is where the Mind resides, and it is according to this Mind that it lives. Its Mind is its image. Be it man or the rest, all creations are only able to act and live according to their images. No matter what it may be that is being created, the Mind is what is born depending on the environment.

🌱 REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION

At Santa Clara Meditation, we often see how much of our daily exhaustion comes from resisting the natural flow of life. Like water crashing against rocks, we struggle intensely when reality does not match the narrow, self-centered expectations stored in our minds. We live confined by our false “images”—the habits, karma, and illusions we have stubbornly built over a lifetime. Master Woo Myung teaches that true freedom arrives when we stop fighting the current and discard this heavy, accumulated mind. Through our systematic method of subtraction, you can actively let go of the rigid self-image that causes your inner conflict. As you empty yourself completely, you return to the pure, wondrous existence of your original nature, naturally flowing with the universe.
