INTRODUCTION
🌸 In this illuminating teaching, Master Woo Myung explains why the holy writings of saints cannot be fully understood by ordinary people.
These sacred words were written from the perspective of Truth—from the true world, not from the human mind.
Unless one becomes Truth itself, one inevitably reads them through the lens of illusion, unable to truly hear or comprehend their meaning.
To understand the words of the saints, one must escape from the false mind world and return to the true world through repentance. 🌿
Only when man becomes the holy writings themselves—that is, when his mind and the saints’ mind become one—can he grasp their meaning completely.
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Why the Holy Writings of Saints Cannot Be Heard or Understood
The holy writings of saints are often read and even memorized, but no one understands their true meaning.
This is because they were written from the perspective of Truth, the true world and unless one becomes this viewpoint, he inevitably reads them from his own perspective.
Man is an entity that lives in his mind, his own world instead of the true world; thus he does not exist in the true world.
True heaven does not exist in him, so he is unable to understand or hear the stories of the land of heaven.
If he comes out from living within his self, his mind world, he becomes the true world and when he reads the holy writings from this perspective, there is nothing he cannot understand because he has become the holy writings.
Man lives his life wandering because he does not realize where he presently exists.
He needs to realize that the place he is in is a video, a world of hell, and he must come out from that world of illusion by repenting.
Countless religious denominations exist because each person’s mind is different, and each person interprets the holy writings from the perspective of his human mind, ignorant of their true meaning.
However, these interpretations are in the end just word-play and none of them can make man real.
The true way to know the meaning of the holy writings is to become the saints who wrote them.
If one gets rid of the self-made picture world that has turned its back on the world, he will become a saint.
Then, he will know everything.

REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION
At Santa Clara Meditation, practitioners learn to understand Truth directly, not through words or interpretation. 🌠
By discarding the false picture world of one’s mind, one becomes the same as the saints, living in the true world where all divine writings are naturally understood.
Through this awakening, the meaning of all scriptures reveals itself without effort—because one has become Truth itself.
