INTRODUCTION

✨ In this teaching, Master Woo Myung explains that the human body is naturally destined to die, as all things in the material world exist according to the conditions of nature. While the body is temporary, the Energy and Light of Truth is eternal.
Only by becoming Truth itself—the Soul and Spirit of the Universe—can a person live eternally beyond the limitations of physical form. 🌌


ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

Man’s Body Was Made to Eventually Die

Man dies after living one lifetime in the world. People propagate physically in a vertical line, but Truth propagates horizontally. It is eternal Truth that brings forth existence into existence; and it is Truth that existence of form is made into existing Truth.

Everything that exists in the world has a life-span in accordance with the conditions of nature. Even iron eventually disappears when it is melted and people’s bodies die when you burn them. The bodies of all people living in the world have energy from the food they eat, and according to the conditions of nature their life-spans are decided by the limited number of cells they have.

However, a person who has become Truth—the Energy and Light of the Universe itself—has Energy and Light within him. Within Energy and Light, he is one with the Energy and Light even after his body dies because he is this existence. A person reborn as Energy and Light does not die; he becomes the eternal Soul and Spirit of the Universe and he lives eternally with the Energy and Light that is Truth. He does not live eternally with his physical body—he becomes the Energy and Light of the Universe that is the Soul and Spirit, and it is this Soul and Spirit in the same shape and form as his body that lives forever.

This Soul and Spirit is Truth that lives in the living land of Energy and Light and the whole world lives eternally in this place.

Before our bodies disappear, we must become Truth so that we may be born in the land of Energy and Light and live there. If we die before becoming Truth, it is death.
– Woo Myung


REFLECT AT SANTA CLARA MEDITATION

At Santa Clara Meditation, practitioners learn how to discard the false human mind and be reborn as the Energy and Light of the Universe. When one becomes Truth, one transcends death, living eternally as the Soul and Spirit of the infinite Universe.
The goal is not to preserve the physical body, but to awaken to the eternal existence that lives beyond form. đźŚ
