CHE FATT |
|
|
|
Controlling the inner voice that speaks
only the Truth |
|
Holding onto a clear reception, the sound
will be loud |
|
Entrusting with the Heavenly work |
|
|
|
Future transmission depends upon you |
|
At the station that transmits to all
sectors |
|
Take on the task with a clear frequency |
|
Tendering the transmitting line with care |
|
|
|
In this present society, many worship in the wrong way. |
|
Although people go with a half-hearted spirit, they |
|
still seek to get the words of the ABOVE. Half believing |
|
and half unsure, they seek on with many questions left |
|
unanswered in their minds. The most common thing is |
|
the supernatural power that seems to possess certain |
|
people who serve the ABOVE. The questions of trance |
|
and other forms of communication with the ABOVE have |
|
been raised. They seem real yet if man were to think deeper, |
|
they do not seem reasonable in certain event. What then |
|
is trance and its actual purpose? What is the difference |
|
between a man in trance and a person who acts as a divine |
|
writer for the ABOVE? |
|
|
|
In order to know the purpose of transmitting the message |
|
to everyone, one must realize that the ABOVE is full of |
|
compassion and the love for beings is so great. At this |
|
moment man is living in a world of illusions. The ruin |
|
of fire and flood will soon diminish mankind if he does |
|
not seek a way out. There are certain people who have gained |
|
meritorious fruit and have through their previous lives, |
|
gained a clear transmission with the ABOVE. When their |
|
frequencies are right they will be able to receive and |
|
perceive the message from the ABOVE. One thing that they |
|
must possess before they can really get permission to use |
|
this frequency to receive is mere sincerity. For, perception |
|
from the ABOVE comes with a pure and sincere heart. The ABOVE, |
|
being so merciful, makes use of man's perception to pass on |
|
the message to everyone. The aim of this is to help everyone |
|
to row his own boat across the suffering sea and to be saved |
|
from the
burning land. |
|
|
|
Let us talk about people in trance and people who |
|
are in any way able to perceive the message of the |
|
ABOVE. Those who are in trance are normally in a semi |
|
unconscious state of mind. Due to their sincerity and |
|
faith, they are able to perceive the right frequency to |
|
get the message. Being a messenger chosen by the ABOVE, |
|
he must practise with diligence and always be sure that |
|
there
is no disturbance in the transmission. If he |
|
continues to work and practise for the sake of mankind, |
|
he may even reach a stage of total consciousness while |
|
in trance. This is the stage when the mind must be in |
|
total stillness in order to perceive the right message. |
|
The mind and spirit must be combined as one in order to |
|
perform deeds that are beneficial to mankind. |

CHE FATT |
|
|
|
Carrying along boxes of jewels and gold |
|
Hoping to take them all along |
|
Ending in the bridge of sigh |
|
|
|
Further jewels, you see no more |
|
A person comes and goes in one origin |
|
Taking nothing along but the merits alone |
|
Tempt not to get things that are not
yours. |
|
|
|
Claiming that wonders obtained through prayers alone |
|
Holding onto false hope created by man alone |
|
Onto the journey that gives life, work one must do |
|
Only by meritorious actions will merits be gained |
|
Never hope to get to the ABOVE by merely calling alone |
|
|
|
Failure to plant good seeds, failure of harvest too |
|
Opting for beneficial way, begin your journey Home |
|
Never call when the time arises |
|
Giving off the best with actions seen |
|
|
|
In today's trend, it seems that many call upon the |
|
name of Heavenly Beings, hoping to get protection |
|
and to gain. Many times they will recite the prayers |
|
truly and with a sincere heart. By being sincere, your |
|
heart-felt calls may be answered but if no supportive |
|
action follows your recital, then the effect will be |
|
different. I am sure that you have never heard of such |
|
a thing as calling the plants to grow and they will |
|
grow. If man wishes the plants to grow, then he must |
|
take care of them. If he puts efforts and hard work into |
|
the job, the plants may grow. |
|
|
|
Learn not to be deceived nor be a deceiver. Learn only |
|
the Truth and tell only the Truth. Cultivate the Way as |
|
one cut and chisels. All precious stones before being |
|
polished, have rough surfaces too. Having been cut, |
|
chiseled and polished with diligence, the stones will |
|
sparkle when its original form is seen. Just like working |
|
on a stone, man must work to get into his deeper self for |
|
only the inner self is true. Do not allow the imitation to |
|
fool you as your true-self. True-self is pure and it |
|
should not be stained. Stain it and one may not recover |
|
it at all. |
|
|
|
Concentrate on searching for the true-self |
|
Hurriedly as one takes on the Path |
|
Owing to the various states of mind |
|
Onto different stages, man may find |
|
Never worry about how far up when one goes |
|
|
|
Failure to arrive at the destination |
|
Only then you realize that near or far do not matter |
|
Narrowly one may escape the recycle of life |
|
Gaining the chance, permit no hurdle to stop you. |
|
|
|
Man who is cultivating the Way, sometimes worries |
|
too much. He worries about how far behind and how |
|
much longer it takes to arrive. Why must man worry |
|
too much? When one has worries, his mind is not at |
|
rest, nor will he have a, peaceful mind that will |
|
allow him to concentrate fully on the cultivation. |
|
When one is behind, do not worry about it but keep |
|
up with the pace that equals to his own realization. |
|
|
|
When one feels that he has attained certain stages, |
|
do not be too proud of the minor results. For better |
|
or worse, one will not gain unless the ultimate goal |
|
is achieved. Concentrate on the Search and let the Truth |
|
guide you. Although you allow the Truth to guide you, |
|
you must not seek a truth that has form. Truth is formless |
|
and one gains a full understanding through self-cultivation |
|
and realization of all things. One may feel that if he does |
|
not take a look at How far he has achieved, then he may |
|
never reach his aim. A person must learn to cultivate daily |
|
and to check upon his actions. Improve on what is right and |
|
slowly take off the bad roots. In this world of illusions, |
|
man is often blinded by money and fame. But when these are |
|
obtained, only the physical form is gained. Man strives daily |
|
to upkeep the needs of this so-called 'body'. He nourishes |
|
the body with food to upkeep his strength. Has it ever |
|
occurred to him that his inner self needs nourishment as well? |
|
Since the inner self may not show itself, what then is the |
|
nourishment for? In physical form, nourishment is food that |
|
can be seen. In nourishing something that is formless, then |
|
the nourishment is formless. Let the knowledge be the food to |
|
the wisdom and the spiritual knowledge be the nourishment to
the |
|
inner self. Bring out the self that is formless and all things |
|
will then appear as void. When one attains the stage of total |
|
voidness, then there will be neither you nor I and therefore, |
|
all illusions will be gone. |
|
|
|
CHE FATT |
|
|
|
Continuing to search, the wisdom must be
opened |
|
Humanity being practised, virtues will be
sighted |
|
Erect the virtuous tower, only virtues are
within |
|
|
|
Future actions must be bf virtuous deeds |
|
Attempt not to fall prey again |
|
Take note of your journey |
|
Take note of all pits. |
|
|
|
In order for one to practise, one must practise |
|
with diligence and determination to gain. Humanity |
|
is what the world lack of today. If all men practise |
|
the cultivation in the right way, then you will not |
|
see so much fighting over minor things. Life is so |
|
precious, yet people take it away as they slaughter |
|
an animal. Who has the right to take life of other beings? |
|
Life by right should be the most precious thing, for |
|
without life, what is the good of possessing all the |
|
kingdom? Do not take life as a simple thing, but live |
|
in a simple way. Lead it with virtues and build your own |
|
tower. Tower that is formless, nothing can break it. |
|
Although virtues in words look simple but to practise, |
|
a person must first cultivate an insight. Open the |
|
'third eye' to see the actual world. If the 'third eye' |
|
is not blessed, then the illusions will take over the |
|
physical eye. Only an eye that cannot be seen will see |
|
formless things in actuality. Thus, illusion though blind |
|
the eye, the 'third eye' will still see. Although this |
|
may seem like a fairy tale yet if one realizes, he will |
|
still see the meaning |
|
within. |
|
|
|
Take on the task and begin your foundation for this |
|
invisible tower to take place. As one cultivates, the |
|
journey may be hard and full of temptations. The only way |
|
to get through is to combine your mind with your spirit. |
|
When the mind and spirit are as one, you will realize |
|
the stage of emptiness. Upon this realization, nothing |
|
in form will really matter anymore. Therefore, one will |
|
go through the test of evil. Man who is cultivating the |
|
Path must remember that as the ABOVE's strength is seen |
|
in one's heart, the strength of the evil is three-fold. |
|
On meeting with such occasion, man's mind must remain calm. |
|
If one can attain the stage of total stillness, then evil |
|
will do no harm. When a heart is pure, nothing from outside |
|
can stain it. If it is stained, then it is man who allows it |
|
to be so. |
|
|
|
The teachings of all masters are the same. If man can accept |
|
Them as equal, then much will one gain. Man must learn not |
|
to be over-stubborn in certain things. Lean not to be too |
|
attached to the worldly things. |
|
|
|
When objects are gone, nothingness will take over their |
|
places. Since all are but nothing, do not let attachment |
|
take place. If one is too attached, then images will |
|
always be around. The mind must be cultivated to an |
|
extent whereby although nothing seems to exist, it exists. |
|
If one can reach this stage, emptiness will be his thought, |
|
and nothing cannot be realized. When one can observe |
|
stillness, then at this stage one will live to see. |
|
If one cannot cultivate simple calmness and stillness then |
|
how can emptiness be attained? |
|
|
|
CHE FATT |
|
|
|
Clear in vision yet formless it is |
|
Hold not to images, emptiness will take
place |
|
Erode the illusions away from the mind |
|
|
|
Future dust must not lay within |
|
Attempt to clean up daily |
|
Taking all things as a mirror |
|
Then it will not leave images behind. |
