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!.

Evolving free spirit through insight

No 1617 of Living Life Series 1 




Go not for what we desire but go for what we must have to be in this life of flesh and body. Go for what we must have not what is good to have. Set realistic and attainable goals. Life is short and there is more to life than goals. There is the inner calling we have to address. 

We need to address the mind and put it right. Be mindful of what goes through the heart (mind) not only of our own but of others as well. 

Do not be blunt and direct. Decide what others can accept even if they want frank replies. Just empathize and do no more. This may often be the must do and not the good to do. 

For the religious man who wishes to tell the truth, the truth may hurt and others may decide to exact pain and hurt him in return. But not to tell the truth of God and life is to perpetuate forever the wrong views and ways of men and this is also not correct. 

Thus many saints born and raised in the body of flesh and blood may bleed and be physically abused, even mocked at and be at mercy of men. Men will laugh and jeer and deride the saints in flesh as being helpless. They will say that God is not with him and the saints are no saints as such. 

What more for persons who are ordinary and no saints as such, they must tread with care. Be mindful and deliberate on every thought, words and actions. 

They should endeavour not to be victims of what they think, speak or do. Cultivate the mindfulness, have pure thoughts that promote peace more so inner peace come what may. 

Even if we are prudent, we cannot control what others think, speak or do. We can be at peace even with no peace around. We should at least not lessen the paucity of peace around. 

This is is the inner peace Bo Tien 武天 teaches all to meditate to have inner peace and to be pure at heart - pure in spirit like God and heavenly saints. 

This is the free spirit which all can only have regardless of their religion, culture and society. 

The awesome and wonderful part is that all can do so in the religion and culture they are in. They will end up better than what they are, better in the religion and culture they are in.
