Only a wise person knows he is to blame.

Adivine being is a person who is completely without self.

The foundation of this great universe is
the eternal and never-changing Truth,
which in turn is Energy and Light.

Until now, people in religions listened to the words of saints, spoke about them, and strove to behave accordingly. Religions are places where people go to listen to the words of saints because they are incomplete. Religions are also places where one must believe those words and adhere to them. But more importantly, people have been unable to become complete in these places because they lack a concrete method.

Dō refers to a path to heaven.

Possession is the birth of another false self inside one’s false mind.

Everyone living in the world is dead because people are tied to the conceptions and habits of their lives and to their shape and form.

Man was born with a mind that takes pictures of the world and everything that belongs to the world.

A house can exist because the ground exists and the ground can exist because the Earth exists.

Human sin consists of original sin and personal sin.

Ever since religions have existed in the world, there have also been never-ending religious wars.

From early times, Koreans have sought the divinities of heaven and earth, and also for God.

The Mahaparinirvana Sutra, a Buddhist holy writing, says that in the future, in the world of the future Buddha, parinirvana or perfect death can be achieved.

Living silently like nature,
living silently like the universe,
is the life of Truth.

Nimitta is existence.
Existence is want.
Want is attachment.

People usually think and say that eternal Heaven can only be entered once they die.

There is not a single human being who knows what Truth is.

There are roughly seven billion people on this planet, but no two minds are alike.

The apocalypse has always been a much discussed topic, and it is said that when it happens everyone will die.

We are afraid of ghosts and we also often tell stories about ghosts.

Our minds are formed from a young age, through our daily lives: from our experiences with our families, neighborhood, schools and society.

It is not easy to live in this world.

It is a common misconception that when the end of the world comes, the world will disappear.
It is said that when the end of the world comes, countless people will die while those who have faith in their religion will not.

Images that arise in the mind are all illusions. Furthermore, everything that one sees and hears is an illusion also, because they are seen and heard from within his mind. Many people want to do dō – pursue Truth – in order to become superior or to gain something. However dō is about discarding; simply put, it is about discarding all of one’s mind and body so that nothing remains. This is so that his mind can become the never-changing existence of Truth, from which he can then be reborn.

People think the end of the world is everything dying, but the end of the world is being reborn as Truth and living in heaven. It is the end of the world because one destroys heaven, earth and man with his mind, and because heaven, earth and man no longer exist, it is a new world.

Human desires differ from person to person but every desire is manifested from feelings of inferiority: of feeling not good enough or having less than other people. A person who lacks love seeks love and a person who lacks money chases money.

Christianity tells us Christ is the son of God and that he is God himself. This is perfectly correct. It also says that Christ is the Way, the Truth, and Life, and that no one can go to heaven without going through him. This is also correct.

I hear a man coughing in the early morning darkness. On his back he carries manure over the hill to the fields. This is an example of the life of a diligent man.

People insist their own religions are right and that other religions are cults or heretical.

People generally believe that they are truthful, honest and right. They commonly also think that they do not cheat anyone, and that they do good deeds for others. People have self-centered human minds which make them believe anything that is not theirs is wrong.

Man’s mind holds illusions, which in themselves are hungry and empty minds.

Man is born with a mind that wants to possess, so he seeks satisfaction and happiness through possession.

Worldly preconceptions teach us that Truth is something that is eternal and never-changing. I, too, teach that Truth is eternal, never-changing and living. I also teach what worldly preconceptions do not – what the existence of Truth is.

There are often more days of difficulty and suffering than there are days of happiness in life and it is in the midst of difficult times that we begin to think about certain matters.

In all the religions that have ever existed in this world, people listened to the words of past saints and they tried to adhere to those words from within their mind worlds. The saints all spoke of a complete being coming to the world one day and that at this time all men could become complete and live in a world where man is able to live forever without death. Essentially, they were all prophecies.

In Buddhism the master of the Universe is called Buddha, while it is called God in Christianity. In Korea that is originally of the Haneol-nim ideology it is called Haneol-nim.

What is Truth? Truth is the place of the everlasting, never-changing Universe before any creations came into existence. This place is the origin of Truth. In other words, the place where there is absolutely nothing in the Universe is the mother and father of all creations, and this existence is the origin of all creations. This existence is the original appearance of the everlasting and never-changing Truth.

People often speak of going to heaven or hell after death. But what are heaven and hell? What happens to people after they die? Clear answers to these questions cannot be found anywhere; nowhere can one actually be enlightened of the answers.

There is no one in the world who knows the laws of the world or the will of the world.

There are two types of creation: spiritual and material. The Creator that is the master of the world is not a material existence but a metaphysical one. It is the origin and source of the Universe; it is the Universe before the Universe. This existence is Jung and Shin (Soul and Spirit). Amidst absolute nothingness, Jung and Shin exists; Jung is the place of emptiness and Shin is God that exists in the emptiness. All physical forms in the world are representations of this existence.

The way all of the many different forms in the world came into existence was by the right set of conditions for creation coming together. This type of creation is called material creation. Material creation is possible because the celestial bodies in the sky exist, and soil, water, wind, and temperature exist on Earth. From the perspective of the Universe, the Creator, it is the Creator who created all things.

Since mankind was created in the world, people lived their lives continuously forming and destroying delusional thoughts and notions in order to possess and own more.

Man is waiting for the coming of a delusional Truth; an existence made from his own beliefs and standards. Man believes this entity of Truth will come only for him and he waits for this entity in order to gain something; he believes that a Jesus of love and benevolence will come only to save him. He believes this because he lives within his own self-made mind world.

People believe they are alive and those who are religious also believe that they will go to heaven after they die.

An innumerable number of people have come and gone in this world, but no one knows where they came from or where they went. In any case, they have all disappeared from the world. From the Universe’s point of view, man disappears after a fleeting, meaningless life;

There were people living in the world even a long time ago. The many people who lived in the world throughout the ages have all disappeared, silently and without a trace.
