INTRODUCTION

✨ In this profound teaching, Master Woo Myung shows the incredible power contained within a single word. Words are the direct expression of the mind—they can save, they can kill, they can awaken, and they can mislead.

Only words that come from Truth guide people to the eternal world, while words born from the false mind create illusion. Enlightenment can happen in an instant—sometimes through deep cleansing, and sometimes through one true word that pierces the false self. 🌿

ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG

Words

One word spoken,
one word,
can save a person.
One word spoken,
one word,
can kill a person.
Words are expressions of the mind,
and they can save or kill people.
In the world, great words are those
that teach people of Truth.
Through such words, one can go to the eternal world,
the world of God.

All people speak words while living in the world,
but words that are not Truth are all lies.
People do not know even the false words
of a true person are Truth.
Enlightenment can happen in an instant.
Some gain enlightenment through words,
and some gain enlightenment through
cleansing their minds.

There are those who had doubts
despite how much they cleansed and cleansed,
but were then enlightened by a single word;
so enlightenment is the knowing, or not knowing,
of a moment.
Truth is always in its place,
but because of man’s karma
the road he must travel to find it
can be millions of miles long.
Karma is none other than your ego,
and the conceptions and habits of a lifetime
that you are currently making and tearing down.
This is what karma is.

Karma forms one’s self.
Karma is the reason one is ignorant of Truth
so it must be shed, again and again
in order to reach Truth.
Truth does not have even the smallest amount of greed
so in order to be able to reach it
one must not expect to have
even a shred of personal gain.
Karma must be cleansed away
because Truth cannot be seen through it –
this is the path to see Truth.

– Woo Myung
