Saint or anti-saint is a learning for men

No 1024 of Living Life Series 1



Tell us who is the real saint
When he was rejected in his time
by the very ones he learnt from
and grew up with in the land

He stood in the temples so long
and said that they were wrong 
in what they believed and briefed
He created heresy and disbelief

Such persons there were in history
They see things with a new story
and were strong in their views
The rife they stir others did feel

But they are the likes of Jesus
and the Gautama of the Indus
yet one is Christ the savior lord
and the other Buddha of the gods

They were not fully accepted by men 
in the land they grew up then
Good and divine they might be
for their word others could not agree

But beyond the very land 
and shores they came from
they were acclaimed by the many
as Christ and Buddha with prompt

Aren't they the very anti-saints
to where on earth they came from
Yet the world today is prompt
to proclaim anti-saints in their men

Their men do think on their own
with twists to teachings they gained
but labelled the anti-saints in the end
and they face risk of being disowned

Who is anti-saint and who is saint
The saint is no saint some say
and their men as well no saint
Let this not be they pray

Men know not the saint in men
Men do not know where they stand
what will happen there and then
with the second coming in the land

The good lord Lord Bo Tien did say
with such doubts of the past and day
These are good for men to gain
The learning that will not be in vain
Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 says that
he is no saint of any religion
yet is the saintly one.

He starts no religion 

and he favors none
but had to start in one.

He shows the oneness 
of religions and saints
and wants us to be more good


More good in our religions
We be better in what we are
through knowing the same Word

Word that is behind religions
The Word that is in him
He is also the Word

The Word is the all
The Word is God
God is the Word
