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!.

The saints are with us in life

No 1038 of Living Life Series 1

Though we will surely die one day, it is silly to live as though we will never die. At the same time it is silly to worry that we will die in time to come.

What is important to know is what are we here for. What are we living for? Why are we what we are? What should we find happiness in? Ultimately the answers will beg further questions.

Nothing in this world or the next will be satisfactory and we will have to come to terms with this. We will have to have inner peace amid the dis-ease, the ups and downs around us.

We will need the support and fellowship of others more so the saints and the satisfaction that they are with us and in this together - through thick and thin. They will shelter us through storms.

No storms will be for eternity. Calm and sunshine will return. But the cycle goes on and on.

Alas, what we treasure most is that we have friends and we have God and saints to hold our hands. We are not alone. They are in life together with us. This will augment the inner peace we have. This will give us the impetus to better ourselves in spirit, to purify our spirit so as to be more at peace.

When we reach sainthood is immaterial. Our friends are there for us. The gods or saints are with us in every moment of life. We are in this together with them.

The gods are with us. It is awesome that they go the mile to be with us and to hold our hands in every moment of life. It is simply awesome and pleasant to have the saints with us.

There are even more than one religion and sect. This is so that God and saints can reach out to all beings the world over like the ocean to many a land.

The many religions and countless sects represent the commitment and reassurance that God and saints will be with us. This the good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 proclaims in 1969 when he descended in Singapore through Philip Png.

The good lord has since gone round the world and there is no stopping him in mission. He is on the go. He like the gods are in this life with us, wherever we may be.

We are never alone and lost for they are with us. Know that and we will be more at peace and will be spurred to cultivate more peace.

The saints are with us. Surely one day we will be saints with the saints. We are never alone. The saints are with us. They are in this life together with us.

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.
