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.

Do let God sense prevail.

Learning Point No 264







Insects come to a flower for nectar and not for the beauty of the flower. Lord Bo Tien did say this but many hear not and see not what the lord saint had said.

Men come to God for what they want from God and few come for the beauty of God and His divine doctrine.

Men want God and saints to hear what they have to say and not listen to what God and saints have to say. Men, more so in a temple of the lord saint, often make the mistake of wanting God and saints to follow their thinking instead of men following the thinking (tou-li) of God and saints.

Many do follow but only in part when they change the thinking (tou-li) of God to ensure their own personal agenda are met. This may be as bad as not following as the effect is the same - such men want their own thinking or tou-li to replace that of God. (Do refer to the preface to Historical version of the 1980 anniversary message of Lord Bo Tien)

Let us listen to God and saints and not want them to listen to us. Let the men of the mission of Lord Bo Tien on behalf of God listen to the Word in His  messages and not put the Word aside and replace His Word with their own word. 
 
For the historical versions of the messages or the Word of Lord Bo Tien, go to http://www.livinglifeseries5.blogspot.com

Men often want to hear their own word and not the Word of the lord. This is ridiculous but what to do. Men are always men after all. They can even edit and revise the Word or worse still replace the Word with their own. Thus the messages and doctrine will be diluted and even lost by men.

Isn't this sad? For goodness sake, do let God sense prevail.

But Heaven will not leave men to wallow in their habitual mistake of not letting God sense prevail. Heaven will always prevail and if heaven wants to, even the doctrine edited away and siphoned off by men will be resurfaced for the good of the many.

No wonder the lord saint at the end of 1983 anniversary message said that " Sam Chong had lost part of the Buddha's Dharma in the river and the lost parts can be recovered If Heaven wanted these to be recovered." Historical version of the 1983 message of Lord Bo Tien ...

It is Heaven's will that the lost parts of the messages of Lord Bo Tien be recovered and had it not been for Chong Sim penning his thoughts and compiling the messages he obtained from Peter Kong in his book My Interpretation of LORD BO TIEN'S MESSAGES in the painful weeks before he passed away from terminal illness, they would have been lost forever.
 
In 1984, the lord saint did say that "water from the upper source of a stream is pure and clear. When it reaches mid-way of its course , the water will be polluted by many users. If we want pure and clear water, then we have to go to the upper, then we have to go to the upper source of the stream to get it." Thus for better versions of the messages of Lord Bo Tien, we need to go to the  upper source which is the historical versions preserved by the late Senior Brother Tay Chong Sim. (For details, go to  Historical version of 1984 birthday eve message of Lord Bo Tien Chor Choo at Philip's residence...)
