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.

All saints and religions are one and yet different

Learning Point No 213





Ji Gong the Living Buddha


Ji Gong advised us to go direct to the inner truth and not the ways of men in name of conventional religious institutions, practices and traditions. He said that what matters is what goes through the heart and not what goes through the guts. Do not pander to the many whims and fancies of the problem prone folks, He said. Let God be in our heart. Be God-centric and not Man-centric. You will have more peace that way. Go for the inner truth behind religions. Worship God and saints but not men. Man is man and God is God. Let your heart be in God more than in men if you want peace.This too did Lord Bo Tien say. (Excerpt from What Ji Gong wants us to know)
 

 

Lord Bo Tien


Lord Bo Tien and Ji Gong the Living Buddha are different saints but yet one in truth and in God. If you know the truth of life, you know God and the essence of truth that is the basis of all religions.

You know that all saints are one and yet different. You know that all religions are one and yet different in the way they broach on the truth of life that brings us peace in God and saints above. 

Ji Gong and Bo Tien are saints in their own right but if you understand what each is trying to tell you, you understand the other when you go into depth of what they say.

The same applies to religions. All religions appear to be different and that is because there is need to appeal to different needs of society at different times and places.

But if you truly understand any one religion in depth, you will understand what the other religions are trying to tell you and why they approach from different perspectives. 

All saints and religions are one and yet different.
