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!.

The solution for all regardless of religion

No 1523 of Living Life Series 1 

Medicine Buddha at Bright Hill Temple Singapore is a sight to behold. 

The image easily lightens the heart heavy with ills and addictions mental and physical. Provides the solution to those in pain and suffering, from whatever cause. 

The essence of Medicine Buddha is in life and in all religions. 

It matters not the name. Just know the cure to life woes and be better at what we are, in whatever religion we are in. 

 We need not to be his follower or even his friend. Just seek his help and he will provide the way. 

 No such precondition that we must believe before he provides the solution. The cure in life is in the eightfold path as depicted by the pagoda on his palms. 
This is as opposed to the lotus on the palms of Amitabha of the Pure Land. The lotus depicts faith and belief and all will be in Pure Land even in this life to have inner peace and then to have more when they learn the way.
The image of Medicine Buddha embodies the solution to the lessening of strife and rife of life. He provides the initial ease to lighten the heavy heart laden with ills and woes. Thereafter he wakens in us the solution or way to rid ourselves of more.

Meditate on Medicine Buddha to lighten the heart.

Just have inner peace and peace is what we need. 

Image depicts tranquility and radiance described as soothing and calming like where Medicine Buddha is - where lapis lazuli abound in plenty.

Bo Tien 武天 says that the image is the doctrine, and the doctrine is the image.
