π Introduction
Most people believe that eternal life and Heaven can only be attained after death. It is a common thread in many religions: that paradise awaits somewhere beyond this life.
But according to Master Woo Myung, eternal life is not about dyingβit is about being reborn as the infinite Universe, while still alive.
The everlasting Truth of the Universe is emptinessβnot just nothingness, but the original state that existed even before the idea of βemptinessβ was conceived. This emptiness is God and Buddha, the source of all creation and the place where all things return.
When a person discards his false self and becomes one with the Universe mind, he becomes Truth itself. He is no longer separate from God or Buddhaβhe is God, and he is Life. In this state, there is no death, no separation, and no delusion. All is alive. All is eternal.
Heaven is not far away. It is hereβin the mind that has been emptied and reborn as the infinite Universe π .

Eternal Life and Heaven
People usually think and say that eternal Heaven can only be entered once they die. The underlying goal that is prevalent among all religions is to live eternally in Heaven after death, and many people believe this is possible. The everlasting Truth of the Universe is actually the emptiness that existed before and beyond the universe; it is the emptiness before the word βemptinessβ even existed, and this emptiness, itself, is God and Buddha. Anyone can tell that this is the existence that bears forth every single creation and that it takes everything back to it. Because this existence is Truth, all things that have come from it are the children of Truth, as well as Truth, itself.
Eternal life and Heaven are only for one whose consciousness has gone to the state of the infinite Universe that is before and beyond the universe. Such a person is one who has been reborn, for he has become one with God or Buddha. He, himself, is Truth. There is no separation between the individual and the Whole; they are completely one. In him, all things live, and there is not a single thing that does not exist. Just as God is alive, all things live for they are Truth, itself.
God originally created the universe to be perfect. That it is perfect means that it was allowed to live. Perfection is Truth, and it is God. Both Truth and God represent life.
From the entirety of the Universeβs point of view, the whole of creation lives eternally and is true Paradise. However, he who dwells within himself lives in his own delusions, and because his delusions are not real, it is death – his own grave. To have true Paradise within means that one has died and that one has been born again as the infinite Universe. Even when it comes to living, a person is able to live because his consciousness exists. The consciousness is God, and it is God who knows, discerns, and distinguishes right from wrong. The Land where everything lives forever is Heaven. The Land that is one with God and Buddha – the Land that is the biggest and the most supreme – is the eternal and everlasting Heaven.
