God and Buddha are not distant beingsβthey are the True Mind revealed when one is free of delusion. π
In this concise yet profound teaching, Master Woo Myung explains why most people are unable to meet God or Buddha: it is because their minds are clouded by impurity and ignorance. Without wisdom, which is the understanding of Truth, the mind remains closed off from the divine origin.
But when one cleanses the mindβletting go of false thoughts and attachmentsβthe true Mind is revealed. This True Mind is God, and it is also Buddha. ποΈ
Through Santa Clara Meditation, one can discard the false self and uncover the original, pure, eternal consciousness that is not separate from the divine. Meeting God and Buddha is not a matter of seeking outwardlyβit is a return to what already exists within.
How to Meet God and Buddha
People are unable to meet God and Buddha due to their lack of wisdom. To have wisdom means to know Truth, for which Truth is God. He who has become God has wisdom. When one cleanses oneβs mind of impurities, the true Mind is bound to be revealed. That true Mind is Buddha, and it is God.
