💡 INTRODUCTION

Why does life feel so turbulent?

In this profound reflection, Master Woo Myung reveals that the source of human unrest lies in existence itself—specifically in the individual self, which is made of attachments, wants, and habits.
These internal hang-ups are what prevent man from seeing the bright light of Truth.

🌠 True existence, seen from the origin, is free of possession and desire. But man falsely believes in what is not real and, in doing so, distances himself from the unhindered light of the universe.

This writing calls us to go beyond the illusion of self and return to the natural state of Mind that is one with the world.

📝 ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

Human Life

The countless stars that are shining bright in the sky
exist due to the Mind which is free of wants and attachments.
But the mind of man
is constantly turbulent of its own accord
because he exists.
The existence of his self is his attachment.
Attachments are wants.
His wants exist because he lives his life.
Life means existence,
and due to this existence, man lives.
Thus existence exists, but such existence is false.

When seen from the source, falseness does not exist.
But man believes it to exist,
which is why all that is his is futile
and why his life is not righteous.
His life is not righteous because of
the wants and attachments he has.

Human life exists of itself and dies of itself.
That it is of itself means it is as it is,
but man does not know this.
Though he has been living for countless years,
man is unable to see the bright sun due to his wants and attachments.
This bright light is unhindered.
Hindrances are hang-ups,
and such hang-ups are what make it impossible for man
to become one with the world.
Man cannot become one with the world
because his individual self exists.
Though the individual is originally
an expression of the Whole,
the individual has habits –
habits created by the body and life he has.

What are habits?
They are the learned actions of his life.
Such actions of his life are his life.
His life is a thing that he himself has acquired.

There is not a single thing in this world
that is absent of wants and attachments,
and yet everything is absent of wants and attachments.
Though wants and attachments do not exist, they exist.
Thus existence and non-existence are one,
but man does not know this.

– Woo Myung
