LIVING LIFE SERIES 1

A BO TIEN (武天) MISSION INITIATIVE LAUNCHED ON 28TH SEPT 2010 BY INNER TRUTH NETIZEN 2. THE MISSION IS TO SHOW THE WAY TO HOPE, INNER PEACE AND ULTIMATELY SALVATION FOR ALL BEINGS. THE PURPOSE IS TO SAVE SOULS. IT IS WAY BEYOND NORMAL GOOD WORK LIKE CHARITY AND WELFARE ACTIVITIES. NO ONE SHALL BE SAVED BY GOOD WORKS ALONE BUT BY MORE THAN GOOD WORK. THERE IS NEED TO BE IMBUED WITH THE BASIC DOCTRINE COMMON TO AND BEHIND ALL RELIGIONS AND SECTS. LIVE IN DOCTRINE. DOCTRINE IN LIFE IS PARAMOUNT.

.

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!.

Mission Day is for one and all

No 681 of Living Life Series 1

Mission Day celebrates the descent of Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 in 1969 and it is celebrated every year on the 13th day of the ninth lunar month.

He descended not to add to the numerous religions or heavenly saints in this world but to let all know that all should believe and hold on to the oneness of saints and religions.

Religions and saints are not here to divide men and beings but to reach out to more and hopefully all on the need to bring all to the goodness and oneness of God and saints. All saints are one and one is for all saints.

The goodness of God and saints will ever be there even if men believe not in them. Men are not denied the wholesome goodness of God and saints even if they believe not in them. All will believe in goodness but not all associate this goodness with any saint or for that matter with God and all up there.

It is of not much value for the good lord to tell us who he is or more about himself other than the inner truth behind life and religions that he stands for and wants us to know. The doctrine is him and he is the doctrine.

There is goodness in life and this is extended to one and all through many religions and sects who will have their own separate ways of attracting men and beings to goodness so that men and beings can save their own souls and the souls of others a well. This is the basic or Inner Truth Message which is also the Four Pillar Doctrine the good lord wants to share with us.

In this Message, the sky or heaven is the roof of the Universal Temple where all religions and sects are the pillars in all four cardinal directions. Men and beings identify with any pillar of religion or to more or none but all are in this Universal Temple.

But men being men will be at odds with one another and say they are right and others not so. They end up splintering the universal household of God and saints. This should not be the case and underlines the need for the mission to save and unite men and beings in God and saints.

For this mission, the good lord is but a messenger though a divine saint in his own right. He is however not here to display his majesty or to start new religion or sect or to favor any particular one. He is here for all - God and saints as well as for all who are with religions or who are without any.

Mission Day is for one and all - in any land and time. The mission has seeded far and wide. The original flower may wilt from ants and insects coming to it for nectar but seeds from it spread far and wide to give rise to new flowers.

These take the form of new pockets of believers in the respective religions the people are in. In the mission, there is no change of religion but better grasp of spirituality through respective religions the people are in.

The mission is like the vast ocean that reaches out to many a land. New flower will arise at ground zero from seed that returns from afar. There is ever the cyclical renewal as in the nature of yin and yang.

Mission Day is for all
and not for just one or two
be it men or religions.
All should have one in heart
for God and all heavenly saints
and the goodness of beings,
not just men but all.

LORD BO TIEN 武天菩萨
speaking through medium

with Elder Ling Diung Kwong

in attendance at past mission day.

Will this happen once more or never at all?

It depends on the hearts of men

whether they are united and whole.

This did the good lord say.

MEMBERS IN YELLOW

in one voice and color at past mission day.

Where are the religious order in yellow?
They were there in the early years.

Have they made themselves scarce

from ascension and attrition?

Only God and saints will know.

Mission Day is for one and all
- in any land and time
and in any religion or sect.

Lest you forget

Do not make the mistake of idolizing any man who tells you about the Word. He is in the same boat as you even if religion refers to him as a religious leader. Mere mention of a religious leader is as good as encouraging idolising of that man. Why must there be hierarchy in religion? Hierarchy is conventional but may end up as liability rather than a necessity or asset. There should be no caste or hierarchy system in religion. No one is to be considered above another in religion. A religious leader or follower is a servant to serve you and not a leader to be idolised. Do not put him on the pedestal and make a monster out of him.

MAY ALL BE WELL AND HAPPY

May all be well and happy. May they have peace. May our departed friends and kins be well, happy and have divine peace. The main writer wishes the best for all for those near and far. Our kins may be far when they had passed on to better lives but they are near though far. He remembers and wishes his parents Mr Siow Soo Koh and Mdm Tay Hung Siang, his uncles and aunties like Mr Tay Koon Huay, his cousins like Mr Tay Chong Sim and his friends like Mr Philip Png well and have abundance of life. May they be rich in spirit for without such ancestors, there will be no posterity - no us and no you and me. They have blessed us and we must blessed them in return forever and ever.
