- Master JiGong said,
- "Life is not the cutting-off
- And the ending-up of something
- It is actually the flowing and turning
- Of a series of interrelated
causes-within-consequences
- And consequences-within-causes
- The past has already passed
- Yet the future can be pursued
- Cultivation of Truth can make people
detach
- From the past and create the future
- Cultivation of Truth can make people
change their views of life
- And stop blaming Heaven and resenting
people
- Then, one will seek only to overcome the
ego one day
- And realize that all things are
essentially empty."
- He further said,
- "Within the universe, Heaven is great
- Yet the Self-Nature (inner being) is even
greater
- Do utilize fully your Inner Being
- To accomplish the Three Immortals
- Build Virtues ( to correct oneself and be
a perfect person )
- Build Words ( pass on the right teaching
in writing )
- Build Merits ( make contributions )"
- By building virtues, words and merits
- The flowing and turning of life will be positive
- The three immortals will then make us immortal beings
- The nobility of Heaven is more honorable than nobility of man
- Nobility of man is fame attained by accomplishing meritorious
deeds
- Nobility of Heaven is fame followed naturally with the
cultivation of TAO
- Cultivation of TAO is also unconditional contribution to all
living beings
- This is also called the ‘real ideals and ambitions’
- It is a heart to help the world
- It is a heart to take away the pains of the world
- It is a heart to give joy to the world
- It is a heart to set free all the burdens and fears
- It is a heart to end all causes-within-consequences
- It is a heart to end all consequences-within-causes
- Flowing and Turning will then stop
- What we called
- Attainment of TAO.
