Master Woo Myung Poem of Truth – The Master

Master Woo Myung Poem of Truth – The Master

Though I exist in the clouds, no one has seen me,
though I exist in the wind, no one has seen me,
though I exist in the celestial bodies, no one has seen me,
though I exist in the world, no one has seen me,
though I exist within people, no one has seen me.
No one has seen me because they do not have the universe.

Master Woo Myung Writing – The Mind

Master Woo Myung Writing – The Mind

Man is born into the world as the child, the offspring, of incomplete humans and as such, is not a “clean slate” but has human minds from birth. Such inherited human minds are called “original sin” in Christianity. What is referred to as “actual sin” is the world that one has made himself by taking pictures of the world and storing them in his mind. It is also the preconceptions and habits, which are emotions from the picture world that have become one’s mind.

Santa Clara Meditation Living – How can I get rid of overthinking?

Overthinking was one of my old bad habits. To make it worse, my overthinking routine kept evolving to another; even worse one, to daydream. I would daydream about my loved ones or worries and couldn’t control it. Even though I knew it was a bad habit, I couldn’t stop. One day, I daydreamed about my son getting injured at home. It was so vivid in my head, and I couldn’t let it go. Then, one day, it happened in real life.

My oldest son had a lot of inferiority and was negative about everything. He wasn’t confident and did not get along well with his friends.

In middle school his homeroom teacher told me that he needed someone to talk to, that he seemed to be very anxious and frustrated. After that I tried to have a conversation with him, but he didn’t open up to me.

The only thing that was able to relieve my mind and allow me to escape from my crushing battle with claustrophobia as an aerospace scholar was meditation.

The attachments one has in his mind are
the root of his thoughts.
Thoughts can also be called a ‘thought-mass,’
which is the body of images one has in his mind
due to the existence of his individual self.
Those images are what confuse man uselessly;
they begin in the thoughts that man has in his mind
and then are directly manifested in his deeds
without even thinking.

There was always this feeling inside me that there was something completely off about these strong, societal beliefs.
