No 1014 of Living Life Series 1
But with time instead of feeling the presence of God and saints, he feels the presence of men. As time passes by, he knows them better and of course in time, they will disappoint him and perhaps he disappoints them. Then he decides to leave to go to another temple. The same old story repeats itself.
But those left behind in a temple are those who still have not yet seen the ugly side or perhaps are those who are causing the ugly side of a temple. Why this is so is because a temple is inevitably a temple of men.
This has gone on in the past centuries and the temples have devolved to be no man's temple but just places where people go to when they need to ask God and saints for blessings.
People who run temples end up just in the background and holding festivals few times a year.
Then on big occasions with throngs of people, there is no time for nit picking. People are there just to join the crowd and to go home after that.
But are temples supposed to be like that, even if they have been like that for centuries past?
Well, according to Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨, temples are made of people and not the building. Temples must accommodate people of different interests and understanding in life, be it understanding of spiritual or otherwise.
All are welcome by God and saints. But then there will always be people in a temple who think otherwise. They think they can decide that only their clique should call the tune and others must keep off or face being told in their face they are not wanted.
Thus men at the helm become high handed and do exactly what God and saints won't do. Even God and saints don't judge but they the men do not hesitate to judge.
The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says that yin and yang must come together and be cemented like particles to form a pillar. They can stay as yin and yang but learn to work together and stay as one concrete pillar.
He did not say yin become yang. Life and the world is not like that. There will only be whole if yin and yang though different can stay as one.
The same applies at helicopter level of religions. Religions are different but they must work as one and must not operate as though other religions have no place. All religions work for the common good of men though in their respective ways. How dare we say that one way is right and others wrong?
The way of management for an issue must vary somewhat for different individuals and people. That goes without saying as the context and circumstances are different. Well many may not agree but if so they have the right to do so.
But let no one say the other cannot hold on to their belief. They must learn to live under the same roof and in the same world. In fact the good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says the whole world is the universal temple with the sky as roof and religions as pillars.
