If the past was the age of adding to your mind, now is the age of subtracting from it. This teaching from Teacher Woo Myung explains why greed, regret, and bitterness can never be satisfied through possession, and how subtracting the human mind — rather than accumulating more — is the path to wisdom, completion, and a life where everyone lives for one another.

Stop living in this land go to the everlasting world of happiness live there forever by teacher let’s turn to page 79 this passage is the time of subtraction when man can fulfill human completion has begun man is born with a mind that wants to possess so he seeks satisfaction.
Happiness through possession however there is no end to such means ultimately he cannot be satisfied or happy all greed arises from his minds of inferiority and when he is not able to have or achieve what he wants this turns into feelings of regret and bitterness only when he discards his greed will those feelings of regret and bitterness truly disappear until now.
Man has lived trying to what he can because of his mind that wants to make everything his at present this is the way all people live the world is in a state of instability people have lost their trust in each other and they live struggling to appease their feelings of inferiority rather than learning how to possess more in this age learning how not to possess is.
Way to become complete and live a better life this is because instead of just thinking that we must discard money in our minds we will be able to take and carry it into action a mindful of greed is always anguished and a life lived following one’s anguish is without action it is a life with thoughts leading only to more thoughts if the past was the age.
