💡 INTRODUCTION
What is the real world, and what does it mean that this world is already enlightened?
In this profound writing, Master Woo Myung explains that the Padma Garbha Loka Dhatu, the Tathagata-Garbha World, and the Real World are different names for Buddha’s realm—a complete and perfect existence that already is. 🌺
However, man lives trapped in his delusions, interpreting the enlightened world through a clouded mind. This is why he remains in samsāra, bound to illusion, even after death. To escape, one must cleanse the mind, discard karma and habits, and be reborn as Buddha.
🌿 From the viewpoint of Buddha, everyone is already enlightened. But without purification, one remains spiritually dead. When the false mind is discarded, one becomes the Most Infinite Buddha, never dying, finally able to enter and perceive the living world of Buddha.

📝 ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
The Padma Garbha Loka Dhatu, the Tathagata-Garbha World, and the Real World
The padma garbha loka dhatu,
the tathagata-garbha world,
and the real world –
all of these are the names of Buddha’s realm.
This world is already enlightened,
and all creations are already Buddha.
But instead of seeing or hearing this Land of Buddha
for what it is
man does so with his own delusions,
which is why he is unable to enter into that Land.
Thus he will not have entered into it even after death
and will live as a delusion in his own delusional world –
his hell and his samsāra.
That this world is already enlightened means
it is already complete and perfect.
But in order to know this world and enter into it,
man must discard his karma and habits completely
as well as be born again as Buddha.
When seen from Buddha’s point of view,
one is already enlightened and is thus Buddha.
But because his mind is unclean,
he does not know he is enlightened and is thus dead.
Once he cleanses this mind,
he will become complete.
Once he cleanses this mind and becomes Buddha,
who is the Most Infinite,
he will never die
and he will be able to understand the living realm of Buddha.
– Woo Myung
