INTRODUCTION ✨
In this profound teaching, Master Woo Myung explains that heaven is not a place we go after death, but a state of being that we can enter while living. The method to attain eternal life is to discard the false self and be reborn as Truth, the Energy and Consciousness of the Universe. This rebirth connects us with the Soul and Spirit that existed before creation and is the essence of God. By cleansing the mind and body, we can enter the kingdom of Truth, where life is eternal and death no longer exists. 🌱

The Way to Become a Person in Heaven While Living – The Way to Heaven While Living
People commonly believe that they will go to heaven after they die and that bad people will go to hell after they die. People living in this world do not know this world is hell; they also do not know heaven. This is because people who live in heaven know both heaven and hell, but people who live in hell know neither.
People nourish their bodies with the energy from food, but they can live forever even after the body passes away by being reborn as Truth, which is the Energy and Consciousness of the Universe. This existence is the universe before the universe, which does not have a beginning or end; this existence does not have death; this existence is living, and it is the Soul and Spirit itself. One who is reborn as this existence has no death because he is reborn as Truth. When he becomes the forever-living, never-dying God, he lives in the kingdom of Truth, heaven. Humans cannot live forever without becoming this existence while alive.
The method for humans to go to eternal heaven while living is to discard the self-centered body and mind from this great universe and even discard humans’ false conceptions of the universe. Then the pure universe remains. This is the existence that is Truth. When you are reborn as the body and mind of this existence, you are born in the kingdom which is the everlasting land and heaven. This existence existed before the beginning and exists after the beginning; it is self-existing and exists as is. God exists in the emptiness of Truth. This existence is alive; it never disappears, and it exists no matter what. People do not know this living existence because they do not have it in their minds. They cannot see or hear the everlasting, never-dying Truth because they cannot see or hear what they do not have in their minds. So, they cannot become this existence. Only when people become Truth will this world be heaven. Only then can people live forever.
The method to go to heaven is to cleanse the body and mind, which is your exact shape and size, as well as all the shapes of all creations in the universe. The Great Soul and Spirit is the place of origin of all creations. This Great Soul and Spirit is Energy and Consciousness itself, which are one. When this Great Soul and Spirit becomes you and is within you, you and Truth are one.
This is the kingdom where an individual and the whole are one and the individual will live because it is Truth, which is the whole. In that kingdom, existence and non-existence are one. Even though the body passes away, a person who is reborn there can live with true mind, which is the body and mind of Truth. The mind is the shape itself. True mind is Truth. One who has this Truth can live because he is Truth.
The kingdom of Truth is a place where only Truth can live and only what is Truth exists. This is the kingdom where humans cannot live unless they become Truth while living. This is the kingdom where humans cannot live unless they become the Soul and Spirit of the everlasting, never-changing Energy and Consciousness.
