The Living Life Series is dedicated to Lord (武天) Bo Tien. 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 affliliation 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. 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.

Rich in tolerance, rich in fortune 大量，大福。 da liang, da fu

Learning Point No 54





From the wise saying of the ancestors passed down to inner truth netizen by his late maternal granny, "大量，大福。 da liang, da fu. Big in heart (for tolerance), big in fortune." 

Be open hearted and open to all views and ways and a life of goodness and fortune is yours

Be open to others choices and thinking if they happen to differ from yours. Do not impose your views. Do not even think you are wrong or others are wrong. What is wrong in thinking that it is not wrong to respect others who hold other views. Let matters be and if you can, even help them to be different from you and your way. Agree to disagree and respect others if they differ in ways and are critical of your views. Then and only then will there be more space to live and to breathe even if many stand in the same spot.

A temple or church will then be not too small for the many (at times conflicting) views but will be a good kaleidoscope of sorts for the good of the many and one that allows for oneness in diversity.

Be rich in tolerance and be rich and fortunate in life in many ways
