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!.

Bo Tien 武天 on logical approach to religion

No 1666 of Living Life Series 1 




Life has unexpected twists and turns. This is what life is all about. We cannot know when is the next turn we are forced to take. 

That is why religions are there to help us to be able to cope. We turn to God to help us and as said by Bo Tien 武天 small issues will be no issues and big issues even if they cannot be no issues will be less issues. 

Bo Tien 武天 says we can turn to one another for assistance and that is an easier way. 

But there is element of fate which God cannot intervene. We are what we were and we will be what we are and had been. We have to know that. 

We live our own life. God cannot take over and live life for us. We must be at peace with life. We need to cultivate the Inner Peace in our hearts so that we can better face life. 

This logical approach is what Bo Tien 武天 refers to as the Inner Truth. Religions must have this common sense approach. Religions have to fall back on logic.
