✨ Introduction
🧘 In this profound writing, Master Woo Myung reveals a fundamental truth: a person’s life is determined by what exists in his mind.
🌌 While everything in existence is originally Truth, people live within illusions created by their own thoughts and perceptions.
🌿 He explains that depending on what one holds in the mind—Truth or illusion—one’s entire reality and life will unfold accordingly.
✨ This teaching points to a deeper realization: true freedom and liberation arise only when one transcends the mind and returns to the origin.
📖 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
Man Lives According to What He Has in His Mind
The flowing river lives by flowing
and time that flows cannot be seen,
but it exists in the mind world of man.
A noble person is none other than a person who has been born as Truth;
and such a person is the temple of Truth.
A person who has been born as Truth inside himself is complete.
What flies, flies because of the conditions that allow it to fly,
while what crawls, crawls because of the conditions that allow it to crawl.
What walks with four legs does so because it has four legs,
while what walks with two, does so because it is two-legged.
All things in existence exist as Truth but people can know this
only when they are born in the true world.
Everything in one’s mind, all fantasies
are drawn by illusions of the mind;
it is a wise person that knows that they are seeds of illusion.
All the various things that exist,
all the various life-forms there are,
are all Truth.
They are born according to the conditions of the world,
and live according to their conditions,
but only he who has become the origin knows this.
In order to know that his countless futile thoughts and delusions
are non-existent and without meaning,
one must go to the origin.
The many stories people feel unable to tell
are all of the human mind;
however the origin knows
one just lives, and just exists,
which can only be known by the origin that is complete.
He who has gone to the origin knows
the many stories of the world are false
but all those in the human mind world do not.
Man who lives with time has many regrets and much to say,
but regardless of what he says, his words are all the chattering of illusions;
he lives an illusionary life.
However the place that has transcended time,
the place beyond the various things of the human world:
good, bad, likes, dislikes, right, wrong, hot, cold,
knowledge, ignorance, death, life,
boring, interesting, living, dying, sin and karma,
virtue, goodness, penance and pleasure;
the place that is free from all human conceptions and habits
which arise from birth and death,
is the origin that is the land of God.
He who is born in this place of the origin has escaped
from the fixed frames of all human conceptions and habits.
It is freedom and liberation;
free and liberated because one’s self does not exist.
Resurrected as Truth because his self does not exist,
there is no self whatsoever,
and he is free and liberated because he is free from everything.
Like God, he just exists of and by himself,
so he is eternal and invincible.
He is not restricted or restrained by anything, so he is free.
He is free because there is no judgment or discrimination.
He is free because he is free from birth, death, ageing and sickness.
He is free because he is free from joy, anger, sorrow and pleasure.
His body is a temple,
because the consciousness within is the consciousness of the world.
He is a temple,
because the whole world exists within him.
Man lives according to what he has in his mind.
He who has Truth in his mind will live born in the land of Truth,
while he who has illusions in his mind, will live in an illusion.
He who has been born in heaven will live in heaven,
and he who has been born on earth will live on earth.
He who has been born on the earth –
he who has the pictures of the earth –
will live in a picture,
while he who has been born in heaven that is the origin and source
will be born and live in the kingdom of heaven.
He who has the world in his mind,
will live with the world.
– Woo Myung
🌠 Reflect at Santa Clara Meditation
At Santa Clara Meditation, one learns to examine and clear the mind, removing illusions and returning to the origin.
✨ By discarding the false mind, one can live in Truth rather than illusion.
🌿 Life transforms completely when one’s mind becomes aligned with the true world.
