Master Woo Myung Question and Answer – Only When You Die Can You Know the World Beyond

When a person in Korea does not have the solution to a dilemma he will often be told, “You will know the world beyond (the afterworld) only after you die.” However no one in this world knows with certainty about the world beyond. In religion it is often said that those who do good deeds will go to heaven and those who do evil deeds will go to hell.

Man and all creations in the world have an origin, and that origin is the same for all things. To be the same is to be one; it is not something that is here, there, or somewhere else. It is from this origin that we were born and it is where we will return. It is the place from whence all creations came, and where they will go back to.
