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!.

The influence and role of saints in life of men

No 149 of Living Life Series 1




Do not at any time strike a bargain with a heavenly saint. This would be tentamout to interacting with saints with the way we interact with fellow men.

Ask only for blessings to ease you into solving an issue nut you have to take on the isue yourself. Your life is yours and you have to learn from the gospel of life as it unfurls.

With blessings from saints, big issue become small and small issue become no issue. Some issues never will be resolved but we do gain insight and be wiser from doing our best and coming to terms with them. We need to cross the mountains, seas, scorching sun and drought of life.

By immersing and effecting spiritual principles and seeking solace in blessings of saints, our learning will progress. Our learning curve will be steep.  What learnt sticks with us and becomes part of us, to be exact part of our life force or soul.

This fortified soul allows us to launch forays into higher echelons of learning. We are then able to have inner peace amidst greater odds. That will be a blessing indeed to pave way to sainthood and a haloed life.

The first premise to such life is to want to learn and seek divine grace but not bargain like many often do so with fellow men. But God and saints are not men. This is a divine truth to behold.

When doing good, try not to set conditions, to barter or to bargain or even to expect praise and a 'thank you' even from fellow men, let alone from heavenly saints. This did warriors of Lord Bo Tien say.
