✨ Introduction
🛤️ In this profound writing, Master Woo Myung reveals the importance of preparing for one’s true destination beyond life.
🌿 He explains that most people live trapped in past memories and illusions, without knowing where they must go or what their true purpose is.
🌌 Without preparation, life passes meaninglessly within the mind’s illusion, leading only to regret and emptiness.
✨ This teaching shows that true preparation is not external, but the act of returning to the origin and being reborn in Truth.
📖 Original Writing by Master Woo Myung
A Person Who Has Not Prepared Himself for Where He Needs to Go
Man holds onto countless past events as he ages,
and he eventually dies inside the formless world of those events,
reminiscing about those events of the past.
The world made by one’s non-existent self is a world of illusion.
Man, who does not know the true will or purpose,
is ignorant of where he must go,
and where he should truly live.
Neither does he know what he must do while he is alive.
He does not adjust himself to the world,
and instead tries to make the world adapt to him
but the pains he took to do this are the only result.
Man lives within the passing time without reason or meaning,
and he wastes away the years inside an illusionary world,
only to end up dying.
Man, who has nowhere to go, does not know anything.
He does not prepare for where he must go,
and he continues to live in the world of ghosts.
All of the countless stories of past events
are about the futile affairs of life,
which do not remain in the world.
There is nothing that remains in the human world,
everything is a false dream after they have passed,
and because they all disappear, the human world is utterly futile.
Man, who has nowhere to go, walks to and fro
because he does not know where he should go,
and the path he does end up traveling is a false one;
on it, he does and achieves nothing.
The wisest person is he who makes sure he remains in the world;
he can remain forever if he is reborn as the body and mind of Truth.
One can live only when his false body and mind – his very self – disappears,
and when he returns to Truth itself, and is reborn in that land.
Returning to the origin is Truth.
Cleansing the human body and mind,
in other words, getting rid of one’s body and mind
which exists in his mind so that only the origin remains,
and being reborn from that origin
is the way man can live forever.
– Woo Myung
