INTRODUCTION
✨ In this heartfelt writing, Master Woo Myung invites us to move from a life centered on “I” to a life lived as “we” in the Kingdom of Heaven. 🌌
🌿 He explains that Heaven is not a distant place but a state of being that arises when burdens, selfishness, and the false self are discarded. When the mind becomes Heaven, one lives in Heaven.
This passage shows that true repentance, awakening, and living for others is the way to eternal life as Truth. 🌠
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Let Us Live in the Kingdom of Heaven
Let us live in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Let us stay in the Kingdom of Heaven.
Let us throw away all of our burdens
and live in Heaven as Heaven itself.
Let us live in the Kingdom of Heaven
through true repentance,
through redemption.
Let us live in the Land,
that Land where we live as a ‘we.’
Let us live a life in which
we put others before us,
delight in the happiness of others,
and live as a ‘we’ instead of ‘I’.
Pain and burden exist because man is bound to earth. When man eliminates his individual self that is bound to the earth and his mind has become Heaven, only then can he live in Heaven, and only then can he live forever. That place is Paradise; it is indeed Heaven. This true Paradise is where all things know no death because they have become Truth. It is the source of life, where life itself lives for all eternity.
A person whose consciousness is not awakened while he is alive cannot be awakened after death. That one’s consciousness is awakened means that his knowledge, along with his sense of discernment and judgment, has become Truth. A consciousness that is alive lives for it is God. God is the sole God, and only the sole God may live because He is the God of life.
— Woo Myung
