💡 INTRODUCTION
We often hear people say they need to “find themselves.” To achieve this, many travel the world, change careers, or read endless self-help books. However, despite all this searching, the agonizing question remains: who are we, really?
In this profound poem, Master Woo Myung reveals that real self-discovery is not about adding new experiences or labels to your identity. It is about awakening to the true Way, which is Truth itself. For centuries, seekers and monks have agonized over this very quest. True self-discovery is simply uncovering your original foundation. When you finally discard the false illusions of the mind and find your true self, you reach a state of absolute freedom—living completely without worries, yet holding deep compassion for those still searching.

📖 EXCERPT: SELF DISCOVERY
“What is the true Way? It is Truth. It is what every Buddhist monk has agonized over—the discovery of self.
People say that we must all discover our selves, but what is real self-discovery? I see that it is none other than finding who you are.
[…] Though I am at my leisure, just humming a tune without a word or a worry, such is my concern of concerns.”
