Teacher Woo Myung Message – Eternal Heaven
Heaven is the Land where only an eternally-living being lives.
In order for man to live forever,
he must be born into the Land of the Creator.
For unless he becomes the Creator,
there will be no eternal Heaven for him.
People often wonder what happens when one dies.
But the answer to this question cannot be attained until
they themselves become enlightened of it.
Enlightenment is something that can only be reached
when man is headed towards Truth –
the highest, widest, and biggest Universe
that is before and beyond the universe –
because in man’s mind there is no Truth whatsoever.
In other words, enlightenment is the state in which
one is able to know in proportion to how big his mind becomes
as his narrow mind heads to that perfection called Truth.
People use the word ‘enlightenment’ often in their lives,
but there is no one who has truly been able
to enlighten his mind.
The whole of this world is already enlightened
and was made to be perfect,
but man has confined himself to his grave due to his sins.
Man has no wisdom because
he has a mind that is only as big as his body
and knows only as much as he was taught.
To know God and to become Him is to gain wisdom.
Wisdom is God.
One can only see and know God
when he has contained in his consciousness – his mind –
the whole of the infinite Universe
that is before and beyond the universe.
God alone is the Truth
and the eternal and never-dying existence;
only God is the living existence.
And because God is alive,
a person who has become God will not die.
Life and death will be one for this person,
and he will have transmuted into
the eternal and never-dying Energy and Light –
or in other words Truth.
Unless one repents his sins and becomes this Truth,
there can be no eternal life for him.
The Land of God is Heaven.
The Land of God is already complete.
But man is trapped in his grave due to his sins. Therefore, every person must repent his sins
and enter into the Land of God.
This Heaven is the Land where
only the Creator, who is Truth, lives.
So unless one becomes this Creator,
there can be no such things as eternal life or Heaven
for him.
