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!.

We still need empty vessels to make the most noise

No 733 of Living Life Series 1






Be mindful that the one who speaks and who enthralls you may make sense and be appealing more so when he talks for God and saints. Be grateful though that there are such men at the houses of God and saints. 

But be wary as well. Empty vessels make the most noise, more so those who seem to come out only recently and out of the blue and more so when they start a new lineage only recently known to men. 

People are always wanting to fill their void which they have even in the midst of plenty. This is ever the problem of men. Thus this will present fertile grounds for those with little substance and essentially empty spiritually to speak out loud and make the most noise. 

Thus the good lord Lord Bo Tien (武天菩萨) descended quietly in a remote dot of the world in 1969 and made known not who he is or what is his own life story but what men must know that is common to and behind all religions and sects. 

He did this quietly for a few years and then he no longer descended to speak through spirit medium. The little that he seemed to have done, the little he spoke is good enough for a saint like him. Why is this so? 

It is in the nature of society that there will be many who are essentially empty vessels who will come by and resonate what he said and even write numerous articles based on what he said. 

But this though impressive has little to do with the solidness of life and spiritually of such men. This would be more so if such men come into the open and proclaim who they are and how much they can speak for God and saints. 

Though they do some good and are still assets or boon to society, they are the bane of society. They preach even more than what saints like the good lord Lord Bo Tien (武天菩萨) preach. 

The gospel that springs forth from them are even more appealing to the many than those spoken by the saints. That is the problem but men just continue to be swept away by them. 

Give this issue some thought but whatever conclusion you end up with, do know that we still need empty vessels to make noise so as to attract the crowd. 

After that hopefully, some will be jolted up to their senses and reality and thereby know what to look out for in life and how to be at peace. Ironically, they need all the noise from empty vessels to arrive and go for quiet and peace of God and saints. 

Let us continue with substantial talk that is yet empty. Om they say is God but the noise of Om is there even in the void that we know in life. We go for quiet and peace but in such quiet and peace, we hear and are surrounded by the noise of quiet and peace - Om. 

This duality is yet another expression and understanding of yin and yang that all saints touched on - not forgetting that the good lord Lord Bo Tien (武天菩萨) is one of them.
