The Living Life Series is dedicated to Lord Bo Tien (武天菩萨). The doctrine is in His image. The image is the doctrine. He who sees, understands and effects the doctrine sees and knows Him. He who does not see, know and effect the doctrine sees not and knows not the saint even if the saint or His image is beside him. The far may be near and the near may be far. Let the doctrine and the saint be part of our life. The lord saint in your life can be any heavenly saint of any religion, sect or school. The doctrine of truth is behind all and this is the Inner Truth that leads all (regardless of their religious affiliation or even if none) to inner peace and heaven on earth here and now and not just in the after life. The ideal worship and devotion is to know and effect the doctrine of God and the saints. The best gospel is the gospel of life. We learn from our life and the lives of others. The true temple is the world we live in. The sky is the roof of the temple and religions and sects are the pillars of the temple. All under Heaven are in the temple. Needless to say that all the saints we know are in this temple. Ji Gong Posat too is no exception. The whole wide world and web is the temple and must be regarded as a sacred place --- a temple for living and learning. It is more important that everyone that counts plays a role in this universal temple if due focus is to be given to the Mission of Heaven. Men must not be distracted by the agenda of men and end up serving the mission of man. That would be a far cry from the Mission of Heaven. We worship God and saints, not man however good that man may be. There should be no hero worshiping or idolizing of man whether he is a charismatic pastor, priest, monk, medium or lay leader. We don't even idol worship the image of any saint but reflect on what the image stands for. - the doctrine in the image. Omitofo 阿弥陀佛!.

Trinity of love

No 106 of Living Life Series 1




The saints will extend their help to us if we seek their blessings earnestly. This is the love of Heaven

But we must learn to love ourselves and help ourselves. We must work the ground
with love and tend lovingly to our own life to harvest the fruits of blessings and self-love.

According to the lord saint Lord Bo Tien, there is a third axis or dimension which we often forget. We can also help one another. This is the third component of the trinity of love.

The lone candle flame of life needs to be sheltered by lord saints but the amassing of individual candle flames of life as a group too can give strength to one another.

The trinity of love comprises self endeavour (self-love and worth), divine umbrella of lord saints (heavenly or divine love), and group cohesiveness of our fellow men (group love and fellowship).

We are like sand particles which if cemented together as concrete pillar will be strong and which if sheltered from elements (bad influences and karma) by roof (the lord saints) will not be eroded and be withered away by the elements. This is the pillar parable elucidated by lord saint Lord Bo Tien.
