INTRODUCTION ✨
In Nature I, Master Woo Myung beautifully portrays how every being lives in its rightful place—birds in the mountains, by rivers, or at the ocean, and creatures according to their forms. 🌊🌲
Through this reflection, he shows that life itself is harmony, where everything has its natural position and shape. Just as birds, rivers, and mountains have their own ways of being, people too live among people, carrying minds shaped by their existence.
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG 🕊️
Nature I
Mountain birds live in the mountains;
river birds live near the river;
and seabirds live by the ocean.
All things live where they should;
everything is in its rightful place.
People live among people
and the shapes of all things are the shapes of life.
The minds of all things are different
because of their shapes and forms.
A bird flies through the air,
and a mountain creature cries in the hills.
– Woo Myung
