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!.

What to do when the sun sets on your life

No 1625 of Living Life Series 1 



In life, there is sunrise and sunset. The one who is wise will never let the sun set on his life. 

He has a spiritual light of his own, an optimism to shine up his life even with sun setting on his life. He will scan life for the many things that can spark up his life and which often others ignore. 

Even with the sun setting on his life, he is up and about. He will rise and shine. He has the calm and peace at heart -  the inner peace that enables him to find his way around in other otherwise gloom when the sun sets on his life. 

He harnesses the blessings that are there which others in gloom due to the sun setting on their lives will never see, let alone value. 

There is more to life than the gloom that may come down like a curtain from time to time. 

Surely this is the way. Never give up. There is still life and time is a limited resource. Time is itself a gift and blessing. 

Scan the world around for the many other blessings which we have taken for granted and be energised. This is the way to handle life. 

But the basic essential is to start with inner peace come what may and not be ruffled. 

Bo Tien 武天 says that this attitude or call it the inner truth is basic to all religions and cultures. This is how not to be affected when the sun sets on your life.
