โจ INTRODUCTION
In this profound teaching, Master Woo Myung explains that sin is not about breaking commandments or laws, but about not becoming Truth. The false selfโour image of ourselvesโis the source of sin. Sin is the separation from Truth, and it is only by casting off this false self and being reborn as Truth that one can truly live and enter heaven.
Heaven is not a place for sinners; it is where only those who are reborn as Truth can live eternally. ๐
๐ ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Sin
The mind man has is sin. That is, not becoming one with Truth is sin.
The mind man has is the image of oneโs self – the silhouette or outline of his self. This self image is falseness itself.
A person who is false does not know he is false, and this is sin. To have sin means death. A person can live when he casts off his sins and is resurrected as Truth. We believe sin is breaking the Ten Commandments but true sin is not becoming Truth and this is the only sin there is.
Heaven is not a place where sinners live, it is a place where only those who are Truth live. Truth remains when one kills and eliminates his self, the sinner, and only those who have been born as Truth will live.
โ Woo Myung
๐ REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION
At Santa Clara Meditation, we focus on cleansing the false self and becoming Truth. Only when we eliminate the sin of the false self can we enter the kingdom of Truth and live eternally in the state of Truth. ๐ธ
