Difference Between Freedom And No Freedom
Look at a bird trapped in a cage.
The caged bird does not have freedom.
Look at a bird flying in the sky.
The bird flying in the sky has freedom.
Human mind is like a bird cage.
Human lives in the cage of his mind that he himself has made.
Therefore, he does not have freedom.
Like birds flying in the sky,
if human eliminates the bird cage of the mind that entraps his self
and becomes the mind of the blue sky,
his mind can become infinitely free and happy
because there are no confinements and restrictions.
From teacher Woo Myung’s book,
<The Way To Become A Person In Heaven While Living>.
Nature
The crystal clear river flows silently
Water flows from high to low without fail
The water has fish according to its environment
One must exist for the other
Everything comes forth on its own according to condition
Everything disappears on its own according to condition
Even though millions of things come and go
Everything is the origin of the universe itself
People do not know that
Great nature, which never disappears, is the master
People do not know that
The sky, which is great nature and emptiness, is the master
They do not know this
Because they do not have the sky in their minds
This sky is omnipotence and omniscience, itself
Everything is the embodiment of the sky
Because the sky is living
It brings forth all creations
Thus, it is omnipotent
There is nothing one cannot know
With the wisdom of the sky, God
Thus, it is omniscient
It is not about knowing the tales of human beings
But about knowing
The laws of the origin of great nature, the origin of the universe
Knowing and becoming the sky is the foundation of wisdom
Great nature is life as the embodiment of the sky
