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 answer is in life

No 1550 of Living Life Series 1






Where have all the old timers gone even though a temple is the same temple? Why do they stop coming once there are others to run the show? These are pertinent questions in any temple or religion. 

Have the old timers lost interests or are they no longer that welcomed in a temple or religion? Have they simply lost interest and decided they should call it a day? Well no one can be wiser. 

Perhaps the answer lies in the nature of life. What is life about? 

Life is about trying to have what we want. But do we get what we want all the time? We don't and so are we to be upset by this? 

There is no perfection in life and if so, what can we do about this? We must come to terms with life. 

We must be at peace and harness what we can have out of life. Living life is to get more out of life. But more can be less if we are struggling and not at peace. Inner peace is what we need. 

This is the Inner Truth Bo Tien 武天 says that is in life. Inner peace cannot be attained by running away from life and its problems. We have to be in life and live life but has to try level best to have the peace.
