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!.

Can one be religious, yet not have a religion?

No 1364 of Living Life Series 1



Can a man of religion be not religious? Can a man without religion be more religious than many who profess a religion? 

The far may be near and the near far. Didn't Bo Tien 武天 mention this? 

Other saints too do not draw the line and insist that only those with a religion can be religious. They never insist that we belong to one before we can adore the saints. People of course may do so but not saints. 

But mind you, usually it is those of religion who are more likely to be religious. 

Can one be religious, yet not have a religion? Well, it is not the norm. But what matters is that he aligns with purity and goodness that is of God and saints. It is better to be pure and good than to worship God and saints. 

The Word is in life. The Word is God and saints. He who knows life knows the Word. He is near to God and saints though he may appear far. 

Bo Tien 武天 adds that like God and any saint, he is the Word and the Word is him. The Doctrine is the saint and the saint is the doctrine. 

He who knows the Word knows God (or saint). God (or saint) is the Word. The Word is in all religions in some way and is also in life outside religions.
