Hello today I’m gonna read you a passage from the book where you become true is the place of truth by teacher wooyoung this is called the human mind christianity tells us we have original and actual sin and Buddhism tells us everything is in our minds and then what we hold in our minds is karma all religions tell us to cleanse and empty our minds.

This is often misunderstood people commonly think that what is meant by this is to abandon or give up what they intended to do the human mind is the way one is living at present in Korea there is a saying that you live according to what you have in your mind according to the minds you have eaten when we eat the nutrients we need remains in our bodies.

And what is not needed is excreted the mind is what one has been born into and in much the same way as food the collective learning and experiences one takes in from birth these things become oneself and dictate how he lives which is why it is said that you live according to the minds you have eaten the experiences of your life become the foundation on which your.

Individual mind is formed the human mind is like a video this means man lives his wife in an illusion from birth it is comparable to a video because with his eyes ears nose mouth and body his five senses he takes pictures of all that he experiences as he lives and stores them inside him these become his self and they dictate how he lives.

Behaves as man lives out his life within this mind this film he takes pictures of his hometown his elementary middle and high schools college military service marriage career and religious life not only has he taken pictures in his mind of his entire past but he will continue to do so even in the future of all that he sees hears speaks smells.

Feels for example anyone who has been to miami beach will have an image of miami in his mind man’s mind is exactly the same as a camera the image is on film and the camera are not real they are false the actual miami beach is what is real what is inside the mind is false they’re like images on a reel of film it is because man is.

Living inside a video that all religions tell us to cleanse and empty our minds it is why we are told that the blessed are the poor in spirit for the kingdom of heaven is theirs man has always lived inside his mind this film.

He has never once seen or lived in the complete world this is what sin is what karma is your whole life including everything that happened today was simultaneously taken as a picture the moment you saw it moreover you are inside that film the picture when you think carefully about your day today wasn’t it all inside your mind we can live as one with the complete world when.

We destroy this picture world and come out from within it we can become complete when we are resurrected after becoming one with the world created by the creator who is complete thus the mind that we must cleanse and is the world of pictures the real world is already complete.

It is already enlightened only man is dead for you lives in a picture world man’s mind is a mind world that is like a self-made video a false world and an illusion when seen from the real world it is non-existent and when a person who is within this mind world dies he disappears forever however man believes he is living in the actual world because his mind world.

Overlaps the real world man is not complete because he lives in a human mind world of the life he has lived a mind world constructed from pictures that were taken of the real world this is the reason people seek religions and spiritual places the reason they practice this meditation man and his mind world are false.
