Maum Meditation - Possession
"A person who tries to posses things is foolish for he will not be able to possess anything
and he who seeks is foolish for he will not be able to find what he is seeking."
Maum Meditation - Person
"When the mind is
Limited to what he has learned
Limited to his shape
He is the slave of that mind
That is false"
If the Past Was the Time of Adding
"A person who subtracts his minds in this time will recover his original nature."
"One will then be able to live well for he will have wisdom and his mind that is the Soul and Spirit will live eternally."
Let's Go to the Living World
"Man thinks that someone will save him even if he has not become Truth. But this idea is wrong... It is nonsense to think that one can live eternally when his mind has not become the eternal world and he has not been born in that land"
"Truth is revealed only when one discards his false self"

Maum Meditation - Love, Compassion and Virtue
What is true love? What is human love?
Discard discard discard...
To The People Who Hate Me
"To the people who hate me,
I thank you for teaching me
That I have hatred in my mind."
What are you looking for and what are you trying to know and gain?
If you die completely, you do not gain anything or know anything. Your mind becomes the mind of the emptiness itself, where everything has ceased - the mind that has become one with the world. Then the world exists within you, you exist within the world, and the world exists in all creations. The reason a speck of dust and the Earth weigh the same is the world exists inside the speck of dust.

One only knows, speaks, and lives
This is an excerpt from the poem The Difference Between the Living and the Dead is the Same as the Difference Between Heaven and Earth by Woo Myung in his book The Way To Become A Person In Heaven While Living (page 29)
According to what he has within
One who has the universe within him
Knows the true meaning of the universe
Living as the will of the universe by becoming the universe
Is true life
It exists before the wind
It exists before the clouds
It exists before all creations
This itself is Truth and is alive
People do not know it is living
Because they do not have it within their minds
Only this itself is Truth
Only this itself lives
Forever, and ever
The superior, the foolish
The living, the dead
The wise, the unwise
One with Truth, one with false
Such are as different as life and death
As different as heaven and earth

What is Pride?
Pride is protection of one's self
Which is a false existence
True pride is to have Truth
One's mind consists of the accumulation of false images
One lives with that mind
And so the narrower his mind, the stronger his pride
When there is no mind of one's self
He lives as it is, even when he faces confrontations
He lives as it is, even when he must face the wind
He lives like the wind, like water
He lives just as he is, just as he is shaped
Everything is one; everything is Truth itself
However, in the narrow, selfish minds of humans
There is no Truth
One cannot live like wind and water
Because his mind cannot become the wind and water
Because it cannot become great nature
When one is rid of all conditions
And throws away all of his desires
He sees all as it is and lives as it is
He is the highest one
Even though he may suffer loss in the world
He lives silently
For he is the highest one
Only one whose mind becomes the mind of nature
Has no enemies
A person with the mind of nature hates no one
When there are no images of the shadows of one's memories
And only Truth remains in his mind
Then he is one who has been reborn as the mind of nature
Because he is great nature itself
He is one who is one with nature
by Woo Myung

It Exists Because It Exists In The Mind
Should one blame others?
Should one blame the world?
Should one blame his ancestors, his parents, or his family?
All just exist as they are and live as they are
But one's mind has not become the world
Thus many things remain as bitter feelings
Exist as bitter feelings
Because his mind exists
Because the world does not fit his mind
Bitter feelings exist because they exist in one's mind
Because things do not fit his mind
If one no longer has bitter feelings in his mind
Then he no longer has any bitter feelings altogether
Only a person who has become
The mind of Truth, the original nature
Has no false mind at all
He lives the life of true nature, he lives like nature
Everything exists in one's mind
by Woo Myung
