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.

Lord Bo Tien in God's grand plan

Learning Point No 336





It is very clear that the lord saint Lord Bo Tien did not want to start a new religion or sect. He didn't even want to have shrine dedicated to him. 

That his organisation to spearhead the mission to save souls through existing religions and sects is named after him is just incidental. If he had his way there is no need to use his honorific name for any temple. He wants us to know that there is the same God and same way to Heaven and sainthood in all religions and sects. 

Small wonder that his name is just an honorific that of martial from heaven. His image in general's attire reflect the sense of purpose as in military mission. 

The many colors reflect the diverse races and cultures that God must reach out to not via one religion or sect but through many. His scepter in right hand depicts the divine instrument of mission entrusted by God the Jade Emperor. His left hand in salutation bids all to be steady and to move ahead in unwavering way. 

That he said he would not come down to speak to those at any mission related temple at Singapore after the first 13 years demonstrated his resolve not to be the purpose of the mission but to be the initiator and facilitator of mission. He did promise that he may come down once more but if all are in harmony and the mission is entrenched. 

Adoring him will be to no avail for he is not meant to be a saint of a temple or to be a saint of an existing or new sect or religion. He just wants to be in background and perhaps to fade into history. 

What he wants is for the reawakening of the inner truth of God and the Tao or Tou-li, the logic of reasoning for all to be saints in Heaven. This reawakening must take place not through a new saint or sect, not through a new religion or temple but through the existing churches, temples and religions. 

This invokes sense of both joy and sadness in the writer - inner truth netizen 2. But the lord saint will never waver and betray the mission to save souls through the reawakening of the same inner truth behind religions. 

He would rather that people like the writer forget him and he is kind to the writer by blessing him with the support and guidance of saints of existing religions. Ji Gong the living Buddha is God sent or rather sent by Lord Bo Tien but the writer will still miss the lord saint. 

This is despite his saying that those who know the doctrine knows him. Those who know him not but practise the same one basic doctrine in any religion or sect are near to him though they know him not, for he Lord Bo Tien is the embodiment of the inner truth behind all religions and sects. 

Lord Bo Tien, we miss you but the in your absence, the doctrine is what we have to treasure and our religion can be any or none. This is as per your wish and the mission is above all else.
