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.

Take it off-line and move on

Learning Point No 141







Often we have problem that upsets us and holds our peace and happiness to ransom. We keep thinking about and be preoccupied by the problem, be it an illness or a grudge.

We keep wanting to solve it but what if it could not be solved or take a long time to solve?  It may be better to revisit it latter.

The tendency however is to think that all else can wait and say, "What the hell? This problem must be solved or resolved." Often this would gravitate us into more anguish if the problem cannot be wished away just like that.

Why not keep it at back burner and move on in life. There are many other things in life waiting for us and these too cannot wait.

In short, take the problem off-line and move on. Come back to it and contemplate on options.

Perhaps and best that you do so, take your problem to God and saint. Pray for the calmness, resilience, resourcefulness and insight. Have your heart and trust in God and saints.

God and his saints will know and with whole hearted devotion to Divinity, God and his saints like Ji Gong will heed your call and be with you.

Ji Gong Posat said that issues big or small will be no issue to those who are enlightened. Big issue if cannot be solved will at least be small issue, and issue if small will be no issue. Lord Bo Tien too said this in one of his few landmark messages in the first 13 years of the Mission of Heaven. This too has been echoed over the centuries by many other saints.

But alas, often the problems and issues of men are many and plentiful. Lord Bo Tien reflected to us on this aspect of life. There will be no end of issues and problems but to the enlightened they will be no issue if we have the correct perspective of life. Problems are, after all, characteristic of life in mundane world.

However, don't be stuck in an issue. Do not let your life be derailed just by one problem or issue. Move on with life. There are many things in life waiting for us and these too cannot wait. Any issue that seems insurmountable or upsetting, it is sometimes wiser to take it off-line. Take it off-line and move on.

Don't wish the thought of the problem to go away but let it be in your mind. Leave it in back burner. Move on with the many other things and events in life. Life cannot wait but problem can. Take it off-line and move on. Then you will find life more acceptable and have more of the peace and ease sages talked about. This is so and so be it. Amen.
