Wisdom - The Mind is one






Wisdom





The Mind is one.
The Mind is everything.

Everything exists in the Mind,
and everything is the Mind.

The mind that has always been absent of attachments
is the one Mind.

When that Mind stirs
countless different minds arise therein.

Such are manifestations of the Mind.

And it is from within man's mind
that those manifestations arise and disappear;
man's thoughts are what become his numerous minds
with which he creates numerous things.

But when seen from the perspective of 
the non-existent Mind
nothing in the world exists.



Man is lost and knows not where he goes, 
for he is bound to the life he lives.

Man's mind is one,
but the reason he does not know this is because
his eyes have their limits 
and because he has his self.

If he were without his self, there would be nothing: 
if his self were to exist, everything would exist. 

Man does not know the reason for why 
having one's self is unrighteous.

What he knows is nothing more than his attachments. 
Thus he does not understand the logic of Truth 
nor its will.



No one can teach you how to understand 
the will of Truth,
not even a saint.

They cannot teach you how to become a saint, 
for they have no wisdom.

To have wisdom means to have no attachments, 
and in order to have no attachments
you must eliminate the memory of your thoughts, 
which are the entirety of the mind you have.



Man lives believing that he is his self, 
but this idea that he has of himself 
is nothing more than the memory he has of living; 
he has created a thought-mass of himself 
and with it, he lives his life.

It has become his self- 
his karma and his habits - 
whereby the life he lives has become his self. 

The life one lives is his karma, 
and this karma is what continues to shape his life.



What is life?
It is the outcome of the mind one has.

In other words
it is the whole of what one remembers.

All the things that are in his memory are 
the attachments of his life, 
which in turn are his karma and habits 
as well as his human mind.



This human mind is made up of 
all the things he remembers and the life he has lived. 

If you were to live without thoughts - 
if you were to live completely absent of them - 
you would live without any hindrances, 
nor would you get caught up in anything.



Listen and etch it deeply in your hearts when I say 
that your human mind is none other than 
the things you have come to store in your memory.

Who can teach Truth?







Who can teach Truth? 




We can only offer as much as we are capable of offering, 
just as we can only teach as much as 
we are capable of teaching.

 
The Sorim Buddhist Temple in China 
teaches the Sorim's martial art. 

There was a person who could breathe fire from 
his mouth, one could go to him and learn his skill. 

Likewise, if there was a person who could fly, 
one could go to him and learn to fly. 


If there was an all-knowing wise man, 
one could go to him in order to learn his wisdom. 


When a person comes to this meditation, 
he can become the Truth 
by learning how to cleanse his mind. 


This meditation can offer the Truth
because it has the Truth;
it can teach the Truth because it has the Truth. 


Therefore, it is natural that only a person who 
is the Truth himself can teach the way to the Truth. 


Saints who have come and gone from 
this world leave behind their teachings. 

Jesus left his words of Truth through the Bible 
while Buddha left his in the Sutras. 

Just as an English teacher teaches English, 
a Korean teacher teaches Korean, 
and a teacher of Truth teaches the Truth, 
everyone can teach only as much as he is capable of. 


If till now, there had been people who were Truth, 
then there should be a method on how to become Truth. 


It is likely that the reason why there has not been 
a method to become Truth until now, 
is because there was no one who had become Truth. 


There are so many people in this world who 
consider themselves an enlightened person. 


People assumed that there were many 
who had become Truth in the past. 


However, the question is 
"How much they had been enlightened?"
and "What had they realized through enlightenment?"


A true enlightened person is one whose state is that 
of the universe before the universe, the eternal Truth. 


An enlightened person can help man 
to get there by a way which he had done so. 


Those who study this meditation find the true mind, 
because this meditation has the true mind.

The end of the world








The end of the world 



People often think that during the end times, 
"The end of the world" will occur through infectious
diseases, starvation, earthquakes, and wars.


However, these have always existed 
since humankind started living on the earth. 


These things will not cause the end of the world. 


The end of the world is a new age 
when those whose minds, whose consciousness, 
have become one with the infinite universe will live, 
while those who have not, will die. 


Those whose minds have changed 
to the mind of the Universe will live forever 
in the land of Truth, 
but those who are trapped inside
their delusions are dead 
because their delusions are false; 
like a dream, 
they do not exist though they may seem to exist.


A person with a pure mind will know that the true way 
is to cleanse his mind and become Truth. 


However, a person with a dark mind 
will not know that at this time of the world's end,
cleansing his mind will decide whether he lives or dies. 


He will not know because such a person 
is self-oriented and greedy, 
concerned only with his current life
such as acquiring more possessions 
or bettering his circumstances. 


If one lives with a mind full of attachments, 
he dies within those attachments.


A person who is free from the mind of attachments 
and becomes the Energy and Light of the great Universe 
Truth itself does not die 
because he is Energy and Light. 


The end of the world exists for all those 
whose consciousness have not been born as Truth. 


When there is a dawning of a new consciousness 
when one's consciousness has "opened" 
when one's consciousness becomes complete 
that is when one has transformed as Truth, he will live. 


The true meaning of the end of the world 
is the end of man living in the false world.


Unless falseness becomes Truth, 
the world and one's false self will disappear. 


This is the end of the world that people speak of.

 
Meditation is throwing away the false mind, 
so please do not hesitate to contact us.

The true mind





The true mind 


Man lives thinking that his body is the master, 
when actually, the movements and behaviors 
of the body are controlled by the mind. 

So though people may witness the same event, 
the thoughts that arise in each person's mind 
are different for everyone. 

One's mind is made according to the life he lives. 

One's image is one's mind. 

To cleanse the mind is to eliminate the delusional mind 
of attachments that one calls one's self.
 
To return to the place that is before and beyond 
the presence of one's own thoughts 
means to return to the source. 

And in order to do so, 
a person must eliminate all memories 
of the life he has lived, 
which are the attachments formed 
due to his environment. 


He must eliminate his body, 
which lived housing the delusions within.
 
His mind, which is his consciousness, 
must no longer have his self. 

But become the existence for which 
there is nothing higher, wider, or bigger 


So that he may become one with the Universe. 


The Universe is the eternal and imperishable Energy, itself. 

Those of you who have the true mind are rich in heart 
and therefore you lack nothing. 

He who has become Energy 
he who has become Truth is holy Energy and Truth 
and so he would not have questions, 
doubts, or suspicions. 

He would live with a mind of pure emptiness 
that is cut off from everything. 

Such a mind that has become Truth 
would not debate the rights or wrongs of what is or what is not. 

Nor would it have confrontations 
since it accepts everything. 

It would just live and exist as it is. 

From the perspective of the infinite mind, 
living your life selflessly for others 
is the same as living for yourself. 

In fact, it is such a life that is truly one's own. 

One does not live within oneself 
but lives for the whole, for others. 


Which is why this is the last hope for mankind 
to become united as one. 

May every person know that all faults are one's own. 

May everyone practice this meditation 
so that one may throw away and eliminate themselves 
and live as one. 


The mind is one. 
The mind is everything.
Find the true mind within.

Asking the way while standing on the path







Asking the way while standing on the path. 




A person in South America became very angry 
when I told people they can become Truth 
if they repent all of their sins. 

He asked how a mere human 
could possibly dare to think of becoming Truth. 



The existence of Truth, the creator of the universe, 
has existed since the beginning.

This existence is the origin of all creations and ourselves.
 
When one returns to this origin, only Truth remains. 

When one returns to Truth and is reborn, 
he himself is Truth. 



How many people in the past died while searching and striving for Truth? 

Even now, countless people are meditating and practicing asceticism 
in mountains and other places all over the world. 

Many others have isolated themselves 
from people and the world in order to find Truth.


This is like asking the way while standing on the path, 
and looking for Truth within Truth, 
because there is nowhere Truth is not present 
and there is nothing that is not Truth. 


When one denies his self by repenting, 
or rather, when he offers up his existence to Truth 
and only the existence of Truth remains, 
he can be reborn as the existence of Truth itself. 

This is true grace. 

All material things in the world eventually disappear 
but the existence that never disappears, 
the Universe before the Universe, is Truth. 

When one discards everything in the world, 
this existence remains. 

When he is reborn as the Spirit and Soul of this existence, 
he lives forever and heaven is the place where he is. 

If a place where one can become Truth by repenting exists, 
it is, without a doubt, a signal that the era of Truth has begun.
 
We must be awake at this time.

The healthy mindset for facing difficulties






The healthy mindset for facing difficulties. 




Some flowers endure harsh winds 
while others are bent and broken by them. 


Is it the fault of the wind or the vulnerability of the flower?
Should the wind not blow at all? 
Why must the wind blow in the first place? 


What determines whether someone shows strength in the face of difficulties, or easily breaks down is their ability to accept things as they are.


Everything follows its natural order, so rather than wishing for the world to adjust to the narrow mold of your mind, it's wiser to adapt yourself to the world. 


Remember, a place where only the sun shines becomes a desert - a place where life cannot thrive.

Those Who Follow Do - Man shows the "price" of his form






Those Who Follow Do.


The reasons people follow or do 'do' (a Korean word meaning Truth or The Way) is in order to succeed, to become superior to other people in some way, or to appease their feelings of inferiority. However, 'do' is the opposite of these things because the existence of 'do' is the existence of Truth. In order to achieve true 'do', one must discard his very self and shed all of his own preconceptions and habits. Only then is it possible to get to the place of 'do'. However many people fail because they try to achieve 'do' whilst holding onto their selves. 


'Do' is falseness becoming real. One's false self needs only to be discarded but if one tries to gain 'do' within himself he ultimately fails because 'do' cannot be contained within something that is false. The "evil spirits" or "demons" spoken of in the Bible refer to one's false self.


In Buddhism, achieving 'do' is spoken of as being more difficult than scratching one's way out of a silver-iron mountain. It is a metaphor highlighting how strongly man has made his own mind world and how difficult it is to detach his false self.


When one completely discards his self, then in fact he achieves what he originally desired - he becomes a truly superior person and triumphs over his feelings of inferiority. However, he who seeks to gain something in his own world is ultimately unable to gain what he seeks and only adds to his karma. It is important to know the principle that nothing can be gained for free in the world - such is the way of the world. 

There are many who try to achieve Truth without putting in the effort. They are showing the habit with which they have always lived. Man behaves and lives in the way dictated by the form of his mind. Thus, it can be said that man shows the "price" of his form. Whether or not one is able to achieve Truth also shows the price of his mind's form. One's form always pays its price.
