💡 INTRODUCTION

We spend our entire lives deeply attached to our own existence, our desires, and the specific image we have created of ourselves. Master Woo Myung defines this state of attachment and worldly existence as “Nimitta.” Because we are so consumed by our wants and our individual selves, we mistakenly believe that this temporary, physical world we live in is the absolute reality.

However, true reality lies in “Animitta”—the eternal, unchanging source and the Mother of all creations. When we discard our attachments and the false image of our individual self (Nimitta), we return to this infinite source (Animitta). This eternal source is the realm of God, a place of true life where everything simply exists exactly as it is, free from creation, destruction, and the burdensome human mind. Awakening to this reality is the ultimate Truth.

📖 EXCERPT: NIMITTA AND ANIMITTA

“Nimitta is existence. Existence is want. Want is attachment. […] One’s existence is the image of one’s individual self. This image came from animitta and became nimitta. Nimitta becomes animitta once again. Animitta is the source; it is the Mother of all creations.

[…] The realm of God is where there is true life. It is where all things exist as they are. […] It is where the mind does not exist. It is the place of Truth. It is this realm of God that is the real identity of the world, but man mistakenly thinks that the world he is living in is reality.”
