LIVING LIFE SERIES 1

A BO TIEN (武天) MISSION INITIATIVE LAUNCHED ON 28TH SEPT 2010 BY INNER TRUTH NETIZEN 2. THE MISSION IS TO SHOW THE WAY TO HOPE, INNER PEACE AND ULTIMATELY SALVATION FOR ALL BEINGS. THE PURPOSE IS TO SAVE SOULS. IT IS WAY BEYOND NORMAL GOOD WORK LIKE CHARITY AND WELFARE ACTIVITIES. NO ONE SHALL BE SAVED BY GOOD WORKS ALONE BUT BY MORE THAN GOOD WORK. THERE IS NEED TO BE IMBUED WITH THE BASIC DOCTRINE COMMON TO AND BEHIND ALL RELIGIONS AND SECTS. LIVE IN DOCTRINE. DOCTRINE IN LIFE IS PARAMOUNT.

.

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!.

Life by knowing mother nature - the God essence

No 1481 of Living Life Series 1

We may look for happiness and peace in life through friends. But true friends we can hardly have. Even our kins and close ones are in world of their own.

Where can we have true friends? We can have associates or fair weather friends in life, be they at work, at home or in religion.

We will never truly have peace in life if we depend on others. We have to remember that self confidence is the greatest friend.

If we cannot depend on ourselves, we have no peace and fulfilment in life.

Let us be our own greatest friend. Then, we will radiate smiles, confidence and charisma which like a flower will attract others to us just like a flower which attracts insects to it - (quote from Bo Tien 武天)

But be wary of fair weather friends. They are good for socialisation but will not give us peace and happiness.

For peace and happiness, none can give us except ourselves.

Even worldly items are means to this end but not the end. These will need to serve our needs to add life and peace to us.

These should not be our masters to burden us down to more and more. We must be on top and in control and not let the worldly items dictate and be on top of us and sink us with more and more of such items. We can however make use of these to get more peace and meaning out of life.

We are of the world and need to be in the world. We need to work, live and socialise. But let not what are outside us dictate our life happiness and peace.

To run away from world and its worldly items will never be possible. Wherever we go, we are still in the world. But we have to depend on self to create a better world for ourselves and we start with peace in us and not expect peace around us before we can have peace.

This is the way of the wise. The wise follow the yin and the yang, the polarity nature of the world, working half the day and resting for the other half. The world and us constitute the yin and yang and these two must work in synchrony, harmony and in tandem.

The wise find themselves their own greatest friends and by doing that they have more friends but are aware that friends cannot give what we ourselves need. We have to seek what we want in the world within us.

Even we cannot find God out there but we can have more of God in us. Inner peace is the manifestation of God in us. Go for inner peace in us and no way we can have peace out there for if we seek without, peace will be elusive like the rainbow. Let the rainbow be in us. Let God be in us. Cheers

This is the way to handle life. This is mother nature. This is the nature of God essence. This sums up the correct way of life based on insight of mother nature in us and around us. Let us live life by knowing mother nature - the God essence.

We need to live the way of life based on insight of mother nature, the God essence. This is the truth behind and driving all religions. Bo Tien 武天 refers to this as the inner truth in life and in all religions. All religions are one in this inner truth.

Lest you forget

Do not make the mistake of idolizing any man who tells you about the Word. He is in the same boat as you even if religion refers to him as a religious leader. Mere mention of a religious leader is as good as encouraging idolising of that man. Why must there be hierarchy in religion? Hierarchy is conventional but may end up as liability rather than a necessity or asset. There should be no caste or hierarchy system in religion. No one is to be considered above another in religion. A religious leader or follower is a servant to serve you and not a leader to be idolised. Do not put him on the pedestal and make a monster out of him.

MAY ALL BE WELL AND HAPPY

May all be well and happy. May they have peace. May our departed friends and kins be well, happy and have divine peace. The main writer wishes the best for all for those near and far. Our kins may be far when they had passed on to better lives but they are near though far. He remembers and wishes his parents Mr Siow Soo Koh and Mdm Tay Hung Siang, his uncles and aunties like Mr Tay Koon Huay, his cousins like Mr Tay Chong Sim and his friends like Mr Philip Png well and have abundance of life. May they be rich in spirit for without such ancestors, there will be no posterity - no us and no you and me. They have blessed us and we must blessed them in return forever and ever.
