the FUTURE IS IN OUR HANDSIfwe enter the new enlightening age or not, it's up to you to decide.It's not up to me or anyone to say. If we all enlighten or manyof us enlighten, we will enter a new enlightening age. Otherwise,it doesn't matter who predicts what and who decides what age weare in, what is the use? We are still living in darkness.
..... Manyof the so-called clairvoyants and prophets anticipated that manygrave disasters would simultaneously happen in the world. In differentcountries and at different periods of time, different people havehad the same vision. Those people could really see into the future,they were not just remarking casually. However, perhaps we arepracticing well. Our practitioners are in many countries, settingup big group meditation centers. Grouped together, our power isvery strong. So I think the world can stillbe saved. If we sincerely pray for something together, or practicetogether, we can generate an enormous atmosphere of peace, andit will have a great effect.
..... We can change, change our world. We can save our world,instead of killing others for our own survival. We should rebuildour way of life - live a moral life, be a vegetarian, cultivateourselves mentally and physically and there will be immediateresults. Our world will be changed at once! If everybody is plantingtrees instead of cutting them down, then we would be saved verysoon. Within ten years, the world would never be the same, withoutany problem. Truly there is hope, but only with the cooperationof everyone.
..... Q. How do you see peace being established on this planet?
M.When everyone turns to their God-like nature again: do all good,think all good, and speak all good. Then it will be peaceful.Otherwise, there is no solution. No other being can give peaceto you. We have to tune into peace, and live a peaceful life,and become an example of peace. When we become a living peaceon earth, then there is no more need to talk about how to establishpeace.
..... Inthis age of many troubles and disasters we also have great hope,because God has ordained many saints to come into our world andtheir messages are almost identical. They say that we should seekthe Kingdom of God first and then everything else will fall intoplace. Normally, we try to take care of worldly problems first,we take things into our hands, we try to run the universe, butwe always feel very disappointed. The best political leader canonly satisfy people temporarily and bring them some kind of materialcomfort. But we cannot take care of the whole world just withour political skills, or any other abilities. That is the problem.No matter how good our intentions may be, we have to first seekthe Kingdom of God, the supreme power within us, and we are connectedto it. That is why it is said, "God made man in His own image."Image doesn't mean our profile, body or way of life. It is theimage of the invisible power that we are made of.
Even though we are enlightened, we cannot changethe world. We can only reason and bring people into changing themselves.Therefore, we have to begin with ourselves. We cannot sit andwait for miracles. No one can change the world, not even thousandsof Buddhas or millions of Jesus: They would have done it if theycould. Miracles do not happen in this way, where karma is concerned.We have to clean ourselves. We have to bathe ourselves. The bestdoctor can only give us medicine, but cannot take it for us.
We can save our world, instead of killing othersfor our own survival. We should rebuild our way of life, livea moral life, be a vegetarian, cultivate ourselves mentally andphysically, and there will be immediate results. Our world willbe changed at once! If everybody is planting trees instead ofcutting them down, then we would be saved soon. Within ten years,the world would never be the same, without any problem. Trulythere is hope, but only with the cooperation of everyone.
Therefore, I hope the people of the world willwake up quickly. I wish you would spread the message to everybody,telling them to save this earth together. Otherwise, what shouldwe do! Heaven only accommodates the virtuous people. If the earthdoesn't exist anymore, where will all the not-so-good people go?Therefore, we must spend some effort for the less desirable people.This planet earth is very precious. Should God wish to punishit, destroy it, there is nothing we can do but to comply withHis will. However, if it still can be saved, then we should saveit. It is because this world is a very good school, where manysouls can come to learn and grow.
We are the co-workers of God. We have not yetachieved the wisdom of God, so we should respect His plan andHis design because He is the 'Supreme Boss'. He knows what toretain, what to take away, what to repair, and what to destroy.Even if He destroys something, He makes it again; but when wedestroy anything, we cannot make it again. That is the problem.It is because we are not wise enough and not powerful enough.Should we one day reach God-realisation, then maybe we can talkabout destroying and creating with our own hands.
God truly only gives comfort. If at this momentHe gives us some sorrow, it is to remind us of the ephemeral natureof this world, and to remind us that we have to get back intothe safety of the fortress, of the Kingdom of God. Anytime weforget God again, He will remind us. He will remind us in a gentleway first, and then if we do not listen to this gentle advice,He may push a little harder until He pushes very hard. So if youare now not pushed so hard by God, please don't wait until Hepushes hard; and if He has already pushed you hard, please comeback quickly to the Kingdom of God and enjoy all the comfortsHe offers inside.
..... Humans are powerful. They could be the Buddha or theycould be a demon. As a Buddha, they could save the whole world.As a demon, they could destroythe whole world. Until now, we have been afflicted with many problems.Some mentally unbalanced people have created wars, or inventedsome bombs, much of which destroythe wealth of the world and people's lives. Sometimes we thinka bomb is nothing, to destroy a city is nothing, etc. So muchmoney and effort is required to build a city. If the city is destroyed,the economy of the nation is affected, and pressured. Rebuildingthe city entails great pressure. It is a tremendous burden tothe economy of the nation. So, there are natural disasters, earthquakes,typhoons, bombs, and strange diseases. Don't say the whole worldis destroyed. It is extremely disastrous if only one third ora part of the globe is affected. The situation will deterioratewith a chain reaction.
Therefore, I hope the peopleof the world will wake up quickly. I wish you would spread themessage to everybody, telling them to save this Earth together.Otherwise, what should we do? Heaven only accommodates the virtuouspeople. If the Earth does not exist anymore, where do all thenot-so-good people go? Therefore, we must spend some effort forthe less desirable people.
This planet earth is very precious.Should God wish to punish it, destroy it, there is nothing wecan do but to comply with His will. However, if it still can besaved, then we should save it. It's because this world is a verygood school, where many souls can come to learn and grow.
