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 three beliefs

Learning Point No 191
 
 



 
 
Lord Bo Tien would often remind us that those with heart to pray to the saints, the saints do know. Those who seek the helping hand of the saints, the saints will respond and be with them. Big issues will be small issues and small issues be no issue.
 
There is nevertheless the element of fate which if realised and accepted earlier is best for all. This was stressed by Lord Bo Tien
 
Confidence in self will be better off if there is confidence in heaven.
 
Self effort is worthwhile, wholesome and will be even more fruitful with divine blessing.
 
While fate may be harsh and direct, it can still be harnessed for learning for the betterment of the individual.
 
Fate is due to the past, can be painful and has to take its course but it can be moderated, ameliorated and harnessed to one's long term advantage.
 
Heaven can make the path easier by taking care of many other matters that may cloud the person's life at that point. Then the individual can focus and better handle his fate and how to make the best out of it and be better off and wiser in the process.
 
Heaven do intervene directly in event of fate when this is most apt, meaningful and sustainable. Heaven helps those who help themselves. Heaven cannot take over person's life and live his life. Heaven can at times hold man's hand for him to walk down life with the many twists and turns of fate.
 
Do believe in self. Do believe in Heaven and do believe in triumph of good over bad. These are the three beliefs in life.
