Master Woo Myung Poetry – Emptying the Mind
The mind does not really exist.
That it does not exist means it exists.
Though this seem to mean
two completely different things,
polarities always coincide.
Emptying the mind does not mean
emptying a mind that never existed;
it means to eliminate the individual mind.
The individual does not exist.
But because he has a life, he has a mind,
which means that mind – that thought-mass – is
his self.
And that self was created –
in other words, his thought-mass became immanent –
due to his karma and habits.
Therefore emptying the mind means
becoming free of the thought-mass.
-Woo Myung-
