(Divine energy incarnating into human life)
Preface There is divine energy in the universe. This divine energy, at times, incarnates into human life. The example of such a person can uplift others from their spiritual difficulties and bring about clearer spiritual vision for all people. This person’s life describes the supernatural spiritual reality.
Although people are physically mortal, universal divine energy is immortal. It can take a human shape, but it does not die with the human shape.
But due to the effect of worldly life, most people live with the pressure of time and the demand of circumstances. Thus, they are separated from their divine nature and the wholeness of their life being is split. Divine people are known by their life expression and behavior.
Spiritual centeredness, tolerance, dutifulness and all other good virtues are the hallmark of people of univer¬sal divine nature.
Memory From My Heart of My Father, Grandmaster Yo San Ni
(A master’s daily discipline and example)
My father’s day began earlier and ended later than that of the rest of us. He got up extremely early.
He made sweeping the falling leaves and other physical labor part of his spiritual disciplines. My father did not charge people for spiritual and health consultation.
(Walking the middle path between extremes)
Spiritual growth means to be open to and accept the interwoven picture of contradiction. People see only the benefit of what appears to be a fortune or blessing without seeing that it could turn out to be the real poison of their life.
Practically, it means, learn to walk the middle path of balance between the many extremes. It is easy for some people to misinterpret the middle path as doing things only half way.
He said that a person can never make an excuse for not having thorough spiritual learning and achievement.
life. It is also how you accept the blessings and contradictions as defined by your spirit. Do you present them
in your life as a natural pattern of beautifully designed brocade or embroidery? You might ask me, when can we do that?
But there are a few things I would like to point out for those who prepare to leave the land and fly up spiritually.
(Preparing the soul to leave the body)
- Do not build your physical being to be too strong. A body which is too strong and has excess nutrition will cage your soul to the extent that it cannot leave the body. It will require a long disease, some kind of physical trouble, hospitalization and all kinds of treatments until the excess nutrition is exhausted.
So in your old age, eat a light diet and giving up body-building through exercise. Return to the basic necessities of life: take only a small quantity of food and limit your activity mentally, emotionally and physically so as not to cause scatteredness. This is the way for the soul to prepare to take off from the land.
In a difficult time, you cannot fight or argue with an evil force. In a situation of disagreement, you also just keep quiet and watch. You will see that whatever is proceeding in any way other than the proper one will find its own destruction.
- People who choose to do things against the long-living truth for selfish benefit will find that they defeat themselves.
(The two extremes to be avoided)
- All people need to avoid these two extremes: The first extreme is to be overcome by your own desire and ambition or to live a life under the slavery of physical
purpose. This means a need for luxury and vanity and a need to scheme or plot to have all for yourself. The other extreme is to be meticulously picky of yourself which leads to ascetic living. This means to deny yourself any pleasure in life out of a sense of self-punishment. One who abides with the long-living truth leaves all types of extremes.
