🔎 Introduction
✨ In this brief yet penetrating teaching, Master Woo Myung explains the spiritual root of frustration.
When people cannot obtain what they desire, they become anxious, restless, and discouraged. 🌫️ According to this insight, frustration is not caused by circumstances themselves, but by the absence of the True Mind.
This reflection invites us to examine whether our suffering comes from external obstacles — or from the mind that clings to desire.
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
To Be Frustrated
When they find themselves unable to achieve the things they wish for, people become frustrated. That they are frustrated means they do not have the true Mind. They fret and are anxious because they do not have the true Mind.
– Woo Myung
🌿 Reflect at Santa Clara Meditation
At Santa Clara Meditation, practitioners learn that frustration arises from attachment to desire and expectation. 🌠
When one lives with the human mind of wanting, anxiety naturally follows. But when one discards that mind and awakens to the True Mind, there is nothing to lose and nothing to fear.
Peace does not come from fulfilling every wish — it comes from transcending the mind that wishes.
