Introduction
๐๏ธ In this powerful teaching, Master Woo Myung addresses one of the most enduring conflicts in modern historyโthe struggle between Israel and the Arabian states. Rather than focusing on politics alone, he explains the deeper cause: conflicting ideologies, religious misunderstanding, and ignorance of Truth.
According to Master Woo Myung, wars persist because people divide โyouโ and โme,โ believing their religions and systems are fundamentally different. However, at their core, religions pursue the same ultimate Truth. โจ
This writing offers three essential paths toward peace: understanding the unity of religions, discarding fixed concepts, and closing the gap between the rich and the poor. Through this lens, peace is not merely politicalโit begins with awakening to Truth itself.
Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
How can we settle the conflict between Israel and the Arabian states?
Israel never fell despite many wars with the Arabic states because Israel is the country chosen by Heaven before the coming of Truth. Israel never lost in war because Heaven had already decided which country will win. Even if Israel had fought with a bigger country, Israel would have not lost. The war in the Middle East is due to conflicting ideologies and religions. Wars are frequent because people are ignorant of Truth and did not know that religions are ultimately one.
Up until now many people have died because of religion. It is because people separate you and me. The current religious system cannot resolve the conflict in the Middle East. Here are the ways to resolve the conflict.
The first is to teach people that their religions ultimately pursue the same goal, although they seem to be different depending on their locations. Jesus and the saints taught the same Truth to people, but people could not unite because people in different places understood Truth differently and served God differently.
The second is to discard oneโs long established, customary way of thinking in order to unite ideologies and systems. Since it is difficult to be free from a fixed concept, ideologies and systems should unite to be in peace.
The third way to peace is to rid the gap between the rich and the poor. Once the world starts becoming peaceful, people will unite ideologies and systems, and make peace arrive earlier.

Reflect at Santa Clara Meditation
๐ฟ At Santa Clara Meditation, individuals are guided to look beyond division and ideology and instead remove the false human mind that creates separation. When the concept of โyouโ and โmeโ disappears, unity naturally arises.
True peace, as Master Woo Myung teaches, begins within. Only when individuals awaken to Truth beyond religious boundaries can lasting harmony become possible.
