ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Human Life I
If you were to ask me where human life comes from,
I would answer that life neither comes nor goes.
If you were to ask me how to live well,
I would answer that there is only one way to do so
and that is to become a saint.
If you were to ask me how to become successful,
I would tell you that you must eliminate your self.
If you were to say that man is born in to this world
for no reason other than
only to undergo pain and hardships,
I would tell you that because he is human,
his hardships and sorrow do not exist.
If you were to ask me how to get to Heaven,
I would tell you that I have the key.
If you were to ask me of Heavenβs tidings,
I would answer you without hesitation.
If you were to ask me why we live,
I would tell you that
a life in which we live together is human life;
that the life we live together β you and me β in Heaven
is our life.
