๐ก INTRODUCTION
What is youth beyond just age?
According to Master Woo Myung, youth is not merely a stage of lifeโit is a reflection of dreams, love, and beauty. But to hold onto it, boast of it, or mourn its loss is to go against the flow of nature.
๐ฟ In the true state of nature, there is no clinging to youth nor resistance to aging.
True peace comes when one no longer defines themselves by past youthfulness or present decline, but walks on without attachment.
๐๏ธ Youth and love, once real, eventually become delusions and dust if we cling to them.
To be free is to accept impermanence and live in harmony with the way of the universe.

๐ ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Youth
Youth is a time filled with endless dreams.
Youth is a time filled with unlimited beauty.
Youth is full of boundless love.
And though their youth may fade and they may grow old,
people will continue to live on as they are.
Youth is youthfulness;
that they live unbound to youth is because
they do not know of its departure or arrival.
In the distant state in which
there is no youthfulness in youth nor any aging,
one is silent even if there are blues, yellows, or blacks;
he does not think about youth or old age.
To not look back upon the youth that has passed
but to keep walking on is the flow of nature.
So do not dwell on your youth;
do not boast or speak of the glorious days of your youth.
There was your youthfulness that once existed
and the love that you once had,
but they have all become mere delusions and dust.
โ Woo Myung
๐ฑ REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION
To live freely is to let go of what has passed.
Donโt look back on your youth, but move forward with a clear mind.
Master Woo Myung teaches that only in letting go can we find the timeless youth of the true self.
