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.

The wayward is welcome to a temple but a man of God is often no saint in his life time

Learning Point No 80










Let us be mindful that an ideal man of God and saints is a peaceful, pleasant and pure person in words, thoughts and deeds. He has love for life, not only his own and those around him but radiating to others as well. He is confident of his views but is neither pushy nor a push-over. Religious people who understand and grasp the truth should be like that.

He should not hurt others in words, thoughts and deeds and he should not be hurt by the words, thoughts and deeds of others. He uses spiritual principles to handle issues and do not resort to an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. But do not expect such a man to be saint and offer the other cheek when slapped as this may be too much to expect of him.

Don't forget that saints like Lord Bo Tien welcome even criminals so that the light of spirituality can be kindled and nurtured in them. That is the beginning but others must be happy that they are on the path to goodness and not expect the sky out of them.

While the ideal men of God and saints are few, saints are not disheartened for even if there is some spark of idealism in a man that would be good start to being peaceful, pleasant and pure persons. Cheers and "Namo Bo Tien Posat"
