INTRODUCTION
✨ In this reflection, Master Woo Myung shares what it means to be a true husband and wife. 🌿
A real couple is not bound by possession, expectations, or constant conflict. They walk together in oneness, soothing each other’s wounds, caring in both joy and hardship, and living free from ownership of feelings. 🌌
To be a true husband and wife is to transcend attachment—not clinging even to love or laughter, but living in harmony as one mind in the flow of Truth.
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Husband and Wife
A couple should be of one mind
in order to be husband and wife.
A couple should have no distance between them
in order for them to be husband and wife.
A couple should not try to possess each others’ minds.
A couple should not fight
or have any expectations of one another.
A couple should soothe each other of their scars.
A couple should not cry or laugh.
A couple should care for one another.
A couple should laugh in the good times and the bad.
A couple may get angry at each other,
but they should not own it.
A couple may fight, but it should not be a fight.
A couple may laugh, but it should not be laughter.
A couple may love, but it should not be love.
A couple that has truly departed from all of these
things is a true husband and wife.
– Woo Myung
