INTRODUCTION
🌿 In this powerful teaching, Master Woo Myung explains that a life spent chasing personal gain in the dream-like human world is ultimately futile. True wealth is not what we accumulate for ourselves, but the blessings we amass in the land of Truth.
This writing reveals that when we are reborn into the new world of light, our eyes open to the real ways of heaven and earth. Only then can we work for the true world and build a rich, meaningful life that goes beyond time, struggle, and burden. ✨
ORIGINAL WRITING BY MASTER WOO MYUNG
Let’s Work in the New World and Amass Blessings
Regardless of how far one walks and walks, and walks,
there is no end.
There is good and bad in the futile stories of life,
therefore there is nothing truly good in the world.
One might be busy, but he is busy in vain –
no matter what he does, he does not achieve anything,
and no matter how far he walks, he does not get anywhere.
Struggling along with the years that silently pass,
thinking only of the futile events of life,
all that he achieves, all that man’s achievements amount to,
is his own protection, and the tending of his fame and security.
After struggling for my own benefit in a dream world,
I have been born in the land of light –
and I know the ways of heaven and earth,
because my eyes can now see clearly.
There is not one thing to have or take in life,
but a person who amasses treasures, blessings, in the land of Truth,
is truly wealthy.
What man needs to do while he is living,
is to be born in the world of light and Truth,
and amass many blessings by working for the true world.
Such a person is truly wise.
Time passes silently, and he who does not do so,
will struggle and bear a heavy burden.
Many people live in the latter way,
but no one realizes that they do.
The only way to know how to escape from human suffering,
is to completely die.
Just as it is only possible to see from another point of view,
when you let go of yourself and see from a third person’s viewpoint,
when you die and become the standpoint of the Universe that is the world,
it is possible to see and know the world properly.
One is born in the world in order to live,
and in order to amass fortune in the true world.
Do not live a life that is futile,
but be born in the land where there is light,
where all people work for the new world;
where they work to build a rich, new world.
– Woo Myung
