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!.

Mission to connect religions to upper source purity

No  1138 of Living Life Series 1



There is always the small but definite risk of a non-religious organisation hijacking religion to serve its agenda of exerting dominance over societies beyond its shores so as to champion its brand of  very liberal civil rights. 

In so doing, nations which are not ready for liberal civil rights will lose its stability as their people become more vocal and demanding but yet the nations are not mature enough to be constructive. 

It is at times unavoidable that religion may be used that way and this is never the intention of the founding fathers of any religion. 

There is the pollution of religion when this occurs. The good lord Lord Bo Tien 武天菩萨 pointed to us that the downstream of a religion is never pure but polluted. 

For clear water, people must go upstream to the upper source. Societies will invariably alter religion to fit not so religious agenda. The mission of the good lord is to put this right and this is for all religions. 

Religions can be better than what they have become with the passing of time. The mission is to make sure that religions be better than what they have become and not to start a new religion or sect. 

Religions should bring out the inner or basic truth that kicked start the religions. There is need to bring religions back to the upper source for purity of teachings and directions. 

We must be ever mindful and vigilant though this can be uphill and against the downstream current. 

But alas let us admit that without being in the downstreams of religions to begin with, how could men go to the upper source? 

Popular religions have to be what they are even if in downstream form. Mission to motivate individuals who are ready to go to upper source purity will have to be effected to bring about clarity of the teachings in religions.
