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!.

Questions that are answers in themselves

No 1526 of Living Life Series 1



We believe in God. Even those who say they don't do have some inkling that there is a higher being who oversees the heavens, the world we are in and the hells. 

 Even hell is relative. To those in hell, they are not in hell but we in the world is a heaven of sorts to them. 

 To those in a heaven, they are not in heaven but we are the ones who are less fortunate and considered hell to them. 

 Even on Earth, some have better lives and some are less fortunate. We can say that there is heaven and hell on Earth. 

 But those who are hell off well off, rich and endowed may be more unhappy when what they want more they could not get and they often consider themselves in hell. 

 Those who are poor but content with their lot are more happy and they feel they are in heaven. 

 Heaven or hell is no big deal. What matters is what is in our heart. Are we at peace? Are we happy with our lot? Do we find life boring? Do we relish in having challenges in life. 

 Bo Tien 武天 says that we can learn from others and be better off than what we are? We can learn from the wrong approaches of men towards life. 

There are those who think that they just believe in the grace of God or saints and everything will drop from the sky for them. But if this is carried too far, the sky will drop on them. 

 They will find fault with others when the fault often too lies with them. Religion becomes their undoing. 

 We must learn from the alpha and omega of life and of the ways of men. Sages in old China refer to this as yin and yang. There must be balance of the two. 

 With regards to God, some think he don't exist because it is difficult to conceive that he is the creator. But in the first place did God say he is a creator? Did God claim perfection? He did not. 

 The only perfection we know is imperfection. This does not stop God or saint from helping others. Likewise, do we have to be prefect, great, almighty and creators to be able to help others? These are questions that are answers in themselves.
