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.

Men can wait but Heaven cannot. Men can serve but not lead

Learning Point No 45


Lord Bo Tien on why
men cannot lead the mission
and why spiritual leadership should serve
and not manage a temple.
Also why the management should
not direct spiritual matters.
Balance of yin and yang
even in running a temple
is the way of Tao
and the way to go
in running a temple



Thus have I heard and understood from Lord Bo Tien and His emissaries in relation to the Mission to save souls. Men can wait but Heaven cannot. Men are always mired by issues. The issues of men are many and plentiful. That is why mission cannot be piloted by temple committees for when men meet and manage issues, they create problems when trying to solve problems. The spiritual leadership should not be in the hands of the management and the spiritual leadership should serve the men of a temple and not manage issues. 

Men can wait but Heaven cannot. Men can serve and not lead .
