💡 INTRODUCTION
What does true enlightenment mean? 🧘♂️ According to Master Woo Myung, all the affairs of this world are merely dust created by our tumultuous minds and attachments. Every choice we make stems from the thought-mass we’ve built up from our environment throughout our lives.
🌌 True happiness only comes when we are absent of mind and free from our worldly worries. In order to break free, we must discard our thought-mass little by little into the emptiness of the Universe.
🌿 In this writing, Master Woo Myung explains that to reach true enlightenment, we must let go of our false selves, abandon the burdens we carry, and realize the foundation of Truth that already exists within the infinite Universe.

Enlightenment
All the affairs of this world are dust. All the affairs of this world man creates with his tumultuous mind; all of his choices are based on his thoughts.
A choice is a thought of man’s, and depending on it, his life can be lived in whichever manner. Man has countless different things in his mind. The countless different things are what the individual has in his mind. Such a mind never came from anywhere; the mind is born of one’s environment. and is determined by its environment. Therefore “environment” is the life one comes to have due to living.
Man lives his life one way or another, but it is all in vain. It is only when his life is not life that it is a joy and happiness. Human life is meaningless for an enlightened person. Such a person does not dwell in life and is happy in his ever non-existence. Happiness comes when one is absent of mind; happiness means to have no worries.
One’s mind is his attachment and what he has come to store within; it is a burden he is unable to be free of. In order for him to become free of it, the most important thing is for him to abandon his thought-mass.
One’s thought-mass is the immanent thoughts that exist inside him because he has a life. In order to do away with this thought-mass, one must discard it little by little while he is in the emptiness of the Universe. This is the best way to eliminate the thought-mass and the fastest way to know what Truth is. But man is unable to know Truth due to the mind he has. To break free from one’s mind is to no longer have the self. In order to eliminate the self, one must eliminate the whole of his thoughts and his body.
The Universe is a place where nothing exists. But man creates countless things, for his self exists. Originally man is perfect, but the reason he cannot be so is that his self exists, for he has attachments.
To man, ‘original sin’ refers to the road of attachments one embarks on from the moment he is born in to this world; such is the beginning of original sin. Man has original sin, for he does not live as a perfect being.
During the creation of heaven and earth, the Universe bore forth humans that were perfect. But they have their bodies and thus their lives, which while they are living them, they grow confined to their thought-masses; therefore they are unable to live perfect lives. This is because of their lack of wisdom and because they have attachments. In order to teach man that he is without sin or karma, one must get him to realize the foundation.
The foundation simply exists as it is, but man does not know it, which is why he must realize it. The reason people of this world lack wisdom is they are bound to words and to religious scriptures; they cannot see Truth but instead bind themselves to their thought-masses. The scriptures are righteous, but in order to know them, one must be enlightened of them. The scriptures merely teach us that Truth exists but are not Truth itself. Truth is only Truth when man seeks it out. But no one knows the will of the Universe, and all live in the world with worries.
The being from Heaven does not exist in a different manner, but people see him as being different, and this is the problem. The Universe is ever-high and infinite, and once one knows that his mind and others’ minds are the Universe, he will be able to easily understand the realm of God. In other words, man’s mind would be the Universe and the realm of God, and in it he would exist.
