White Sun - The Beginning & Tao Lao Tzu defined Tao as follows: "Great Tao has no form nor substance, yet it creates and cultivates Heaven and Earth. Great Tao has no favors, thus it governs the law and order of the cosmos. Great Tao has no name, but it gives life to and nourishes all beings. Because it is so mystical and powerful, there really is no proper word to represent it. However, without a name, I am afraid that others White Sun - Interesting Questions; Interesting Answers There are Ten Tribunals of punishment in the Underworld. When animals, fowls, fishes and worms (all living beings except human) die, their souls are sucked back into Hades at the Third Tribunal. Their death is mainly due to slaughtering rather than by sickness. This slaughtering is generally done by human beings and because these creatures seem to know that they have no way of escape, they feel ve White Sun - Punishment in Hell There is a type of punishment in Hell which I would like to disclose here because it is a very common problem in the world. May this disclosure help to wake up those who are caught in this situation at present and the punishment is the forcing of inserting iron pins into the mouth. Let's hear the confessions of the suffering souls: White Sun - The Underworld Emperor "Wang" means Emperor in Chinese. The Ten Emperors from the First Tribunal to the Tenth Tribunal are: 1]Qin Guang Wang 2]Chujiang Wang 3]Songdi Wang 4]Wuguan Wang 5]Senluo Wang 6]Bian Cheng Wang 7]Tai Shan Wang 8]Du Shi Wang 9]Ping Deng Wang and 10]Zhuan Lun Wang. On 4th Moon 29th Day (15th June, 1977), a medium's soul "Yang Sheng" and "JiGong" visited the Fifth Tribunal and "Senluo Wang" was there White Sun - The Jade Emperor The Jade Edict was issued on the 15th day of 8th moon (8th Sept, 1976) with the express intention of helping and saving human beings. The tour of Hades commenced on 9th Sept, 1976 and ended on 30th July, 1978 in sixty-two (62) Journeys. The details and conversations of each Journey were written in Chinese characters on the planchette board and were translated into English by Mr Lee Teik Chong in 1 White Sun - The Spiritual Test The way of the Tao goes against human emotions and desires. Those who follow the way of the True Tao become Immortals while those who follow human emotions and desires become ghosts. There is a saying "To practise Tao is like climbing a tall post. It is easy to come down but very difficult to get to the top." White Sun - The Three Vehicles In the teachings of Tao of Heaven, there are many books written by the Heavenly Beings including the Holy Beings from the Underworld, confessions of the suffering souls from Hell, ghosts, devils and even souls of animals. All these took place in the Temple of Tao of Heaven and there are two ways of teachings. One in the form of olden scriptures where divine messages were delivered in poems and ver White Sun - The Soul "I Ching" states: "I" is aligned to Heaven and Earth. Thus it encompasses the Tao of Heaven and Earth. It explains not only the observable world, but also the unobservable world of spirits. It embraces the law of beginning, end and regeneration of all phenomena and matters. It knows that all matters are formed by spirits and vitality, and the soul governs the changes of the matters. White Sun - The Six Doors The Six Doors are the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind. If these doors are not guarded, one's soul will wander in and out through them upon death and fall into the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. Why? The eyes, ears, nose and tongue are doors leading to rebirth as four kinds of animals, and are also known as four paths of birth. White Sun - The Human Desire Throughout man's life, his eyes are opened by the greedy desires. Extinguish this thought and there will be no need to fight otherwise desire is the word that brings down all downfalls. My Master Jigong dictated a wonderful poem as below: White Sun - I Ching (Yin & Yang) The eight trigrams formed the foundation of the earliest holy scripture of China, "I Ching". Five thousand years ago, Emperor Fu Shi obtained the true Tao after seeking twenty-four masters. When he was bestowed upon the Decree of Heaven, a sacred diagram on the body of a dragon horse was revealed to him after appearing from the river Ho. It was called the Diagram of the River. There were fifty-fiv White Sun - The Third Eye The Third Eye is a point on the face unseen to the naked eyes. One may not see it, but it can be felt by the heart. Man will know where it lies if they search for it with sincerity. A person who is in the search begins with the first step. Cultivate in the proper progress, one will learn this point. White Sun - Lesson in Hell Goddess of Mercy known as "Kuan Yin" is known to every Chinese regardless of religion. Her compassion and love to save human beings from suffering have been depicted in one of her many forms as "Thousand Arms Goddess of Mercy" indicating extending her arms to save everyone who calls for her help and mercy. On 19th October 1976, she gave a discourse to the suffering souls in Hell and this is what s White Sun - Meditation The Great Saint Arya Bodhidarma is the greatest teacher of meditation of the past. He meditated for nine years in a cave in China before he found his successor to carry on the Lineage of Tao according to Tao of Heaven. The questions were asked by serious meditators and below the answers explained by him: White Sun - Words of Bodhidarma The Patriarch Prajnatara instructed Bodhidarma, "Tathagata bestowed Mahakasyapa with the absolute dharma-eye, and was transmitted as such until it reached me. Now I shall instruct you: Even though China of the east is vast, there is no other path. The future shall depend upon our uncle's descendants to carry on. A golden cock is holding a single grain of seed to nourish and feed all the saints and Life - Fantasies & Realities Real, what is real? Unreal, what is unreal? For many a time, man often cannot differentiate them. The air is real but no man can ever touch it or feel it. The mists and clouds look so real, yet nothing contains within them. Human life is unreal for it is not a permanent affair, yet man take it for real. Thereby, we see everything with seriousness and cannot get away from money and fame. Money in i Life - The Law To achieve an ultimate goal of universal and perpetual peace, it is the duty of every man's responsibility. Everyone has virtuous inborn spiritual characteristics, unfortunately the majority of the world's population, lacking spiritual apprehension , rather choose to lay down their lives for the price of material interests and comfort. Hence, God sent down the five great religions namely; Taoism, Life - The Root We must take the root and basis as our major or prime importance. Once the basis is set up, the truth of all things will be generated. What is Root and Basis? What does the human way contain? "Three Guides and Five Constants" and "Five Human Relationships and Eight Virtues". If we do not start with the Root and Basis, but aim for the high and far (not practical), it is not natural and cannot be ac Life - The Realization One must make sense. If we stick to things that bear shapes and forms seriously, we will become lost beings. Victory over oneself is a real victory. If man were to walk in all directions, a lot of time would be wasted. Wandering in the dark, beware of the pits. All pits are traps laid down to capture their prey. Be the hunter of the Truth and not let plenty of beauties await us at the bottom. Do n Life - The Search Everyone is searching, but for what? Most people say that they must first see or know of the unanswerable things before they begin. Unfortunately, as one waits for the answer, time is running out. Many do not realize and the search may be too late. Usually man often asks what the Universe is made of? Where is Heaven? What type of place is it? All these questions cannot be fully answered and an ans Life - The Journey The physical body of Man would be spoiled sooner or later. If one does not die now, one would die later. If one is alive now, it is not sure that he can live later. Don't take the exterior (physical things) too seriously, the most important is that he must make good use of his vitality, time and the splendour of his youth in the right manner. During this span of time, do something that you conside White Sun - Wisdom of Life To be able to realize our own ignorance is to be wise. Some people say that they know a lot and they are good at poetry, literature and art. But the wise may say, in fact they know is just a smattering of everything. I have met people in the spiritual field claiming that there is nothing to learn in Tao. The sage does not have this fault because he steers clear of such a fault and he knows he can Life - The Golden Thread In the last 5,000 years there are a total of 64 generations of patriarchs in three different periods known as the Green, Red and White periods. The first 18 generations of patriarchs was from China, then the next 28 generations of patriarchs from India and the last 18 generations of patriarchs again from China making it a total of 64 generations of patriarchs. Life - Time is Precious In life, men are controlled by time. They are always fighting against it. If time is not seen, man will not be so anxious. Think too much about it for time alone controls every action of man. By night one rests and by day one works. If men can forget about time, then they may work without even thinking of time to rest. Yet men are anxious of this movement of time. When one works, time should not b Life - Fame, Wealth and Lust Once becoming famous, one will be bound by a NAME. For this name, one must walk in restraint, fearing that the personal image may be destroyed. Hence people are often stranded by fame and harmed by fame. Life - Bitter & Sweet The worst enemy of men is their own mouth. By it one falls sick, by it one dies and by it enemies are made. Guard yourself against your own mouth and beware of speeches made. When words are spoken carelessly and without any harm, upon entering into others' ears, a curse may arise. Be on guard at all times, even a careless whisper can bring us nightmare and bitterness for a long, long time. Life - A Child is Born With the sunrise and the sunset, every minute a child is born. The first cry seems to be joyful to the parents' ears, yet a cry of suffering one knows not. With every new born, death is seen, but where he goes to is a mystery to all. Not knowing where one comes from, one will not know why one comes to this plane, neither will one know of where to return. Life - At the Workplace In life, we each play many different roles at home. At the workplace, never allow our personal emotions to carelessly come in which is inappropriate for all the reasons you may imagine. No matter how many big corporations called themselves as "big families" it is truly difficult to tolerate workers who bring their personal frustrations or opinions into the workplace. Learn to leave your troubles a Life - What is Awakening? To understand "awakening" of the inner soul, we have to know what are "the body is empty," "the heart is empty," "the soul is empty," and "the Dharma is empty?" Life - What is Fate? This is the teaching of Tao of Heaven about the deeper meaning of life and fate and how a human being can become a Saint, Sage or just ordinary among humans: Life - Is Life Predestined? "Is Life Predestined?" is a very common question that people always ask and if it is predestined then what is the point of doing this and that, why not just let it be and wait. It is said, "Broaden your mind so it can contain all the things in the world; empty your mind so it can accept all the goodness in the world; calm your mind so it can tolerate all the happenings in the world; be composed so Life - The Essence of Mind Over a period of 5,000 years, through the lineage of Tao, there are 64 Patriarchs and one of them is Hui Neng. On the Essence of Mind, he said that it is pure by nature and it is the seed of enlightenment. By making use of this mind alone we can reach Sainthood directly and one of his saying is "Sentient beings who sow the seeds of enlightenment; in the field of Causation will reap the fruit of Sa Life - The Way of Love Pure love is a willingness to give, without a thought of receiving anything in return. Love can save the world from nuclear destruction. Love your fellow human beings; make yourself fit to be called a child of God by living the way of love. Life - A Great Lady Years ago I read a book about the most wonderful lady called "Peace Pilgrim" in America. She walked 25,000 Miles on Foot for Peace. She said, "I shall remain a wanderer until mankind has learned the way of peace, walking until I am given shelter and fasting until I am given food." Likewise, thousands of years ago in China, my Heavenly Master "JiGong" when he was a man, did the same thing, without White Sun - What is Life? (Part 10 of 10) The time has come for the cloud castle to open to all. He who answers the Three Treasures correctly is a royal child. He who answers the password erroneously is not. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 9 of 10) The true self cannot be described and is like the plum flower blossoming in the snow. Without any contamination, it manifests, without any blemish, the aureole is the utmost magnificent which is as bright as the moon. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 8 of 10) To encounter this rare event in tens of thousands of years is truly mystic and wonderful. The examination of Saints and Sages begins by Heaven. The Three Buddhas meet in the "Long Hua Assembly" to select candidates to confer immortality on earthly saints and sages. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 7 of 10) The spaceless golden lock, the spaceless pagoda, the spaceless key opens this lock. The priceless true treasure shines bright after the enlightened teacher's guidance gives grace that has no equal. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 6 of 10) I am Lao Mu, True Lord of Creation, leading the guards to descend to Earth to give direction to the lost and drop the road of awakening. White Sun - What is Life? ( Part 5 of 10) Take firm and solid steps in your practice. Wake up to the secret and fate of Heaven and know the Heavenly Decree, then one is truly a sage. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 4 of 10) Practising for the True Self is the most important in life. This mortal world is the sea of suffering where waves after waves and tides are boundless. The life of human is like that of a mayfly, born in the morning and die in the same night. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 3 of 10) Tao is the most supreme. Lao Mu advised the cultivators to hurriedly attain enlightenment. Wake up to the truth and Tao; emptiness is not actually empty. Existence is nothingness; nothingness is existence. Both existence and nothingness are of the same essence. White Sun - What is Life? (Part 2 of 10) The fate of the spirit is exhausted and now is the Last Catastrophe of the Third Period. The sufferings are indescribable. The spiritual world will wither and earth will decay. Lao Mu has sent the Laughing Buddha to oversee the Heavenly Court and JiGong to be the Heavenly Teacher. Lao Mu gave full power of command to the Laughing Buddha and ordered all deities to help Tao of Heaven. All Boddhisatt White Sun - What is Life? (Part 1 of 10) The Home of the souls is the destination for a person to return to the roots; it is the origin, it is the Kingdom of Gods. The word faith means to be truthful. Faith is the origin of Tao, virtues and merits. White Sun - What is Metempsychosis? In the teachings of Taoism, after death the soul passes into another human or animal body. It is believed that there are Ten Tribunals in the Underworld or Hell. When a human being dies, his soul will have to face judgement there and if found sinful, the soul will have to go through all the Tribunals, to be punished according to the magnitude of his sins, and then to the Tenth Tribunal to await re White Sun - Vegetarianism Vegetarianism is being initiated by the Sages in China and India since time immemorial to prohibit the infliction of cruelties upon fellow animate beings. It is the very basic in the cultivation of compassion and love among all sentient beings. Today, with adequate evidential materials which involve men from all walks of life and traditions, vegetarianism is acknowledged all over the world, as ess White Sun - Who Are We? There are three natures in a human. The divine, human and animal nature. The divine nature is the essence of Tao as well as the soul of a human. It is all good and has no evil. The human nature is sometimes pure and sometimes contaminated and therefore can be good or evil. The animal nature is all of desires for materialism and all evils without any goodness. White Sun - What is Tranquillity? We usually find that in a very quiet environment where nothing much happens, we are easily distracted and readily follow the direction of desires that arise within us. On the other hand, if we have a busy timetable and are focused on a programme of activities, there are lesser opportunities to dwell on distracting thoughts and desires. Serenity of our environment then does not necessarily bring ab White Sun - What is Tomorrow The future is unknown. Whatever is going to happen, will happen. There is no need for either joyful anticipation or anxiety. Likewise, no matter how wonderful our yesterdays may have been, nothing in the world can bring them back. It is pointless to wish for the beautiful past to return. Whatever has occurred remains an unchangeable truth. White Sun - Right and Wrong Mindfulness The power of the mind is a wonder. If you know which is right and which is wrong, you can develop your mind to become a better human. You can become healthier, younger and lovable. Let's see which is right and which is wrong, then change it if you have to.
