π‘ INTRODUCTION
Why do things happen in life? What governs the ups and downs, gains and losses?
In this powerful teaching, Master Woo Myung explains that all things in the material world arise from cause and effectβwhat we also understand as karma.
βοΈ Every action has a result. When one acts with diligence, the result may be success or wealth. But with every cause comes a binding consequence.
To be free from karma, one must go beyond both cause and effectβby cleansing the mind entirely.
π§ββοΈ Only one who has no cause has no effect.
This is the true liberation from the cycle of karma and consequence.

π ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Cause and Effect
Everything that is of the material realm exists because of βcause and effectβ. A cause is the condition (reason) for why there is a resultant effect or consequence. Accordingly, because there is condition, there is karma.
A person who does not have money can gain it if he works. The cause here is βdiligence,β while the consequence is the βmoneyβ earned. In order to be free from the cycle of causal actions and resultant effects, the cause must be eliminated so that there is no consequence whatsoever. He who has cleansed his mind is free from this cycle, because he is no longer in it.

π± REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION
At Santa Clara Meditation, we discard the causes in the mindβthe images, thoughts, and beliefs that bind us to suffering and karmic repetition.
Through deep cleansing, one becomes free from consequence, and no longer trapped in the cycle of cause and effect.
πΏ True liberation is not avoiding consequences, but becoming one with Truthβwhere no karma can exist.
