To the lord saint Lord Bo Tien, His Mission is for all to understand that in whatever religion they are in, they have the same doctrine, the inner truth to God that will save souls.
The same basic universal teaching is found in all religions but the presentation differs from religion to religion.
The cultivation of peace of spirit come what may in life is present in the teachings of all religions.
There is one God or Divinity and many saints and religions to bring men to Divinity.
But men are not able to be good enough to be with God and saints. Heavenly saints of all religions are there to help.

Unlike other saints, the lord saint is not helping men through any one religion or temple but through all religions and temples.
He is not a saint of any religion or temple but is the saint to point out that the same basic inner truth is there in all religions through the saints or prophets of religions.
Thus the lord saint will fade away from dominance of a temple, such as any mission related temple in His name. In fact, in time, such a temple may not find it appropriate to have the temple bearing His name.
It was and is never his intention to start a new sect or religion or to be a new saint of any existing religion or sect. He was never meant and is not meant to grace any temple, church or website.
But He chose Chinese culture to begin with so as to show that there is the same teaching in Chinese culture as in all religions.

The lord saint would have achieved His purpose if men of a temple or church are better in their respective religion because of His mission.
A devout follower of religion X will be a more understanding follower and better at religion X than before. He will understand that all religions are the same though different. Isn't that ideal?
Then the mission would have achieved its purpose.
There is no need for any new religion, any long term temple in His name or for that matter any long term website or blog site in His name.
Living Life Series too will in time fade into oblivion as it would in time be not distinct in content and presentation from the blog sites and websites of religions and sects.
It is not meant to compete or displace the blog sites or websites of religions. It is meant to fade off once the mission is achieved.
"Botienism" as a sect, school or religion is not meant to be. The religions and sects that are already there in the world are adequate to save souls if properly harnessed.
All that need be done is for the common inner truth with the spirit and vigor of the pioneers of religions be energised, reinvigorated and revitalised.
This is so that despite being attracted by the wide choice of religions, men will still see the common tread of the inner truth as the same denominator of all religions and sects.
