Live life like a saint

No 10 of Living Life Series 1




We must live life the way saints live and would live on earth if they had to.

Let our mind and spirit be seated on throne of truth, love and peace like Lord Bo Tien on the dragon chair of the holy spirit.

Let us live the care free life. Let us be the breeze in life and go for wide open space of life like in the heavens. Let us be like the dove in air and display no airs but be free and be at peace in open air. The holy spirit of God and saints is like the dove to fly everywhere. It is the "leng" in Chinese and is open to all who dare and care for one and all in life and in death.

Do not be cooked up in mind-set nooks and alleys with obstacles and traps at every turn. Let us move unencumbered on heavenly highways of life on earth away from encumbrances of polar contingencies of life and mind set restrictions and constraints. This way we will be free and liberated to be unrestricted by the conditioned and the caused and yet be amongst the conditioned and caused.

Easier to have breeze, ease and space in life that way when others are in the blind and bind of worldly life woes and throes what Chinese sages of old refer to as the yin and yang. We must be atop the yin and yang and be master of yin and yang. Only then will we be free to stand still  or move freely and serenely amidst the whirlpools of yin and yang

That's the way to live life and breathe and live easy like a saint, amidst the hustle and bustle, amidst the pull and push, and amidst the ups and downs. No need to compete or concede and to live in others lives. No need to be in their shadows and be denied light and space. No need to be out and down and be made a clown of life. No need to to be raised on a pedestal only to be asked to step down again. No need to inflate or ego only to be deflated  with a mere pin prick of disappointment. No need to be filthy rich or poor but to have enough. We need only to be optimistic, be eager for more life and be at peace with health, contentment, self confidence and eventual bliss of enlightenment. Go for blessings and not be stuck by woes of disappointments.

Do live life like a saint. Then, we will not have jeers and tears but we will have cheers and peace of the Holy Spirit in life and even beyond death. Cheers again.

The image of Lord Bo Tien bids us to balance life of yin and yang and be free from tears and jeers to have life of cheers and peace. We will be seated like the lord saint on the Holy Spirit depicted by the majestic dragon chair of His image.
