Woo Myung persistently emphasizes how NOW is the time to become complete through throwing away our false mind. This man has only one goal, one vision – to see the world, discard their self-centered worlds and live together as one mind and body. The Way To Become A Person In Heaven While Living is a diamond in the rough. Woo Myung gets straight to the point. The what?: Become the mind of nature’s flow and live eternally as the soul and spirit of the universe, of Truth. The How? Throw away the false mind, the dead mind. The where? “Ma Eum Soo Ryun is a place that focuses only on cleansing oneself (p. 73).” That drove everything home for me. The what, where, why, how’s. Finally, a clean-cut book on how to obtain Truth, authored by a man who solely focuses on teaching Truth. I’m extremely happy with this book and I highly recommend those who are willing to give Truth a chance, to read this book with an open heart and an open mind.

I have been always interested in philosophy and human mind. So, when I saw the book and that the author was supposedly ‘enlightened’, it immediately caught my attention and got me curious about what he would say. Basically he explains that humans are living in his own mind world, which somewhat I agree, and that world is false picture world. I have never heard the human mind being compared as pictures and human body being compared as a camera. This is new to me and a very intriguing idea. He also explains one can become completed by discarding the pictures. Now I am curious about how we can actually throw away the pictures in the mind.

Last March, when thousands of Japanese people died suddenly due to tsunami, I felt the futility of life with the feelings of loss and regrets. The book’s content was rather different from my usual thinking about life and it felt unfamiliar and somewhat shocking, but it helped me to self-reflect on my busy life filled with greed. This book pleadingly and earnestly states that the life I live currently is false and a dream; while living, I should wake up from the dream and live in the true world, instead of the dream world. I don’t understand the contents of the book completely, but I keep reading this book because I feel the genuineness of the author’s message that one must wake up from a dream and must not live in a dream world.

I was initially attracted by the title. The author explains human mind and Universe mind according to each themes. Also the author repeatedly states that the world we live in is the human mind through simple sentences with illustrations. I would really like to know if there is a way to escape the world I tiredly live in every day.

This book changed my way of living and thinking about life. I always have lived thinking I have to be busily learning, remembering and developing, even with raising children, I thought I always had to teach and have them learn. But this book explains that people are living in picture world and are continuing to add to that mind world, which is false. I think we seem to be continuing to add endlessly in our contemporary society. So, we are too exhausted to add anymore… As this author states, empty and throw away the added false; I think one must become the original Universe mind to have happiness. I really agree to the statement that now is the time for human completion.

I was a superwoman who liked to hear that I was a great teacher, warm mother, affectionate and loving wife, daughter-in-law who does everything well. After 10 years of such life, I felt this was not what I wanted. I wanted to be free, and be able to study more.… I felt I was getting more and more lonely. There were limits to what I could do, but people felt that I could do it all and this started to burden me. Then, The Way To Become A Person In Heaven While Living was in my hand. There is a method for harmony and also for way of living for all humankind. Living the life would be easier if one knows and follows the logic of the world; but because people live within their frame of minds, which do not match the world, there is a hardship while living. Finally, I understood that my life was difficult due to my own stubbornness and frame of mind; and I found that I have to recover my original true self to be one with the world. I understood that if everyone transformed to the mind of the world by throwing away thoughts and mentality which are concepts and habits of self, then there will be correct solution. A lot of time is spent being educated, but now is the time when one should be educated on finding the true mind and living correctly.

So many people have lived but disappeared without traces in this world. I have lived in my futile life without knowing the reason or the meaning of living; I felt as though I was being healed though this one book which I picked up rather carelessly. It was great to find out that I did not exist in the real world, that I was only a picture that took pictures of the world. If I eliminated all of the false, then I could escape the futile human world and meet the original true world.

During summer vacations, I usually get light, easy to read books at home, but this time I decided to choose a book that allowed me to reflect. I felt the author’s attempt to appeal to readers. A page by page, I read while self-reflecting, the book seemed easy but difficult, and yet, difficult but easy. The book seemed very peculiar. The words were simple with concise paragraphs as in a poem and it seemed to quietly address the meaning of life. It felt like walking along a calm sunset beach!!
