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.

Religions make up the flower of Divinity

Learning Point No 167






The world will not be complete if there is only one country or one race or one culture. The world is complete and beautiful when there are many countries, many races and many cultures.
 
Divinity or God would not be perfect and omnipresent if there is only one religion or one sect in a religion.
 
Divinity or God is awe inspriring when there are many religions, many sects and many schools in a sect.
 
A  petal, a stalk or a calyx each on its own is no flower and no beauty but when making up the complete flower is a beauty and can fill us with awe.
 
Let the religions and sects of the world come together and complement one another to fill us with awe the beauty and magnificence which is the flower of divinity. Religions make up the flower of Divinity. 
 
God's reach to us would be more whole that way.
 
Religions though different like the parts of a flower make up the awe-inspiring flower of God's presence in the world.
 
This is the inner truth behind the religions of the world. Religions are the pillars of the house of God to house and shelter beings.
 
Lord Bo Tien refers to this as the Inner Truth or Four Pillar Doctrine with religions in all four directions as the pillars.
