INTRODUCTION

✨ In this deeply reflective teaching, Master Woo Myung reminds us that Earth is not merely a planet or a physical placeβ€”it is the mother of all creations. Everything that lives is able to do so because Earth exists.

Earth lives and dies of its own accord, just as all things do according to Nature’s conditions. Although people see Earth and the Universe as two separate things, Earth is in fact one with the Universe, a manifestation of Truth.

All creations rely on earth, water, wind, and temperature. Through these natural conditions, everything is born, lives, and dies in harmony. 🌿🌍


ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

Earth II

The earth is the mother of all creations,
and it exists where man lives.
Everything that is living on Earth is able to exist,
for the earth exists.
The earth bears forth everything
that man needs in order to live.
The earth lives of its own accord
and dies of its own accord.
The earth is the Universe;
if it is not the Universe, that is because
man sees the two as being separate.
The earth must exist for plants to exist;
the earth must exist for animals to exist;
this is because everything lives and dies
due to condition.
The earth is a part of Nature’s harmony.
Every creation is born due to
earth, water, wind, and temperature.
The earth is able to exist on its own,
but it is still the one Truth;
the earth is the earth, but it is also Truth.

– Woo Myung

At Santa Clara Meditation, practitioners return to the awareness that Earth, Universe, and Truth are not separate. 🌠
By discarding the human mind and seeing the world as it truly is, one realizes the harmony in which all creations exist.
