๐ก INTRODUCTION
What does it mean to reach the state of โno concepts and no ideasโ (๋ฌด๋ ๋ฌด์)? ๐๏ธ
According to Master Woo Myung, it is not simply sitting cross-legged with eyes closed in meditation. That is only a practice method.
โจ The true state is when:
- One is without any thoughts or self,
- One is not bound by any concepts or ideas,
- And yet continues to move, breathe, and live daily life. ๐ฟ
This is the complete state of no concepts and no ideasโthe state of living Truth.

What Is the State of โNo Concepts and No Ideasโ?
The state of โno concepts and no ideasโ is to be without any thoughts whatsoever; when one is alive but has no self within his thoughts; when one is not bound to any ideas at all. Such is the complete state of โno concepts and no ideasโ.
It is a misconception that such a state can only be achieved or happen when one sits cross-legged with his eyes closed. This practice is only a means to go towards Truth and it is not the true state of โno concepts and no ideasโ.
A true state of โno concepts and no ideasโ is when there is absolutely no self even while one moves, breathes, and lives his daily life.

๐ฑ REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION
๐๏ธ No concepts and no ideas means being free of the self and its attachments.
๐ฟ It is not escape from the world, but living daily life without self, fully present in Truth.
Through Master Woo Myungโs meditation, one learns to embody this state in every breath and action.
