INTRODUCTION
In this concise yet powerful teaching, Master Woo Myung speaks about the tragic condition of humanity:
even though the gates of Truth are now wide open, people remain unable to see or hear them.
It is not because Truth is hidden—it is because people lack inner eyes and inner ears. The false mind, clouded by illusions and influenced by countless habits and delusions, blinds people from recognizing the Truth that is already present.
This teaching shows how deeply humans have fallen into spiritual darkness, deceived by their own minds and unable to perceive the salvation that stands right before them.
Only those who awaken, who gain inner sight and inner hearing, can recognize the open gates and walk into the world of Truth. 🌟
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Darkness
The gates of Truth
that had been tightly shut
have now swung wide open,
but people do not know this.
People do not have ears that hear
and they have no inner eyes
so they cannot see the open gates.
They have fallen for the demons’ cunning,
they do not have ears to hear Truth
and they can neither see nor hear.
– Woo Myung
