Long is the night to him who is wakeful. Arduous and trying is the worldly life to him who has no heart in Divinity.
Short is the night to him who is rested and at peace with God. Challenging and value adding is worldly life to such a man. Life is full of learning.
The trials and tribulations, the ups and downs and what have you are mere chapters in the book of life. Life is the gospel so enriching to one who has the goodness of God or Divinity in his heart. Life is just too short and heaven can wait for such a man. He lives and eschews every moment till his last breath.

Life indeed is full of learning. There are always new ways to do this or that.
Even saints have new ways and that is why more sects, more temples, more churches and never only one way or religion though only one God or Divinity. This is the inner truth touched by Lord Bo Tien. Like religion, he is not the only saint but there are many saints and religions in one Divinity.

It is immaterial who the lord saint Lord Bo Tien is but what matters is why there is Divinity or God and what God and his saints hope we can make the grade to be seated with them.
They are not after adoration. Of what value is adoration other than for entering their respective mind realms in the afterlife to learn and cultivate spirituality. Why wait till then when we can do so now and be on path of Tao / Spirituality.

Procrastination is due to two woes, one of sloth and the other of torpor. They kill initiative and dull the spirit. They stifle the surfacing of the divine light in us.
But alas if we are weak but are devoted, all is not lost, for in the afterlife we can still be in the realm of the respective guiding saint of our destiny to learn and cultivate what we could not due to the twin woes.
Tao is the way to sainthood. There is need to be with the yin and yang, not to deny it but to accept. But we must not be tossed around by yin and yang, the soft and hard aspects of life. We need to be at peace by being atop yin and yang so that we are at rest and at peace. This needs cultivation of moment-to-moment mindfulness leading to equanimity and bliss.
Cultivate Tao now and not wait for afterlife but many need shelter of the saints like Lord Bo Tien, Jesus, Kuanyin, Ji Gong and Amitabha both in this life or in the afterlife. It is never too late to cultivate Tao.
Many can do so only when they are reborn in the heavenly realms of their respective saints. Why not cultivate Tao now and not wait till afterlife
