Correcting the Way
The cultivation systems that are taught in this present day and age are all deficient and incomplete. The old masters realized early on that they were incapable of teaching their disciples long-term and thus decided to adjust their systems to protect themselves and their economic, political, and spiritual interests. To not disclose the system of cultivation in its entirety means robbing people of the opportunity to realize themselves and realize enlightenment. Our cultivation system is different in its honest approach to an individual. We disregard the evil factors that are behind every thought of an unenlightened mind. Every being has the potential to realize himself or herself in this lifetime.
Many beings wish for a worldly anchor in the form of following ordinary society's norms in establishing an entity. Today's platforms for disseminating information and the perception of human experience of the world and reality have changed a lot since the beginning of the new millennium. Some things did not change, of course, because the nature of life is unchanging in realizing the primordial emptiness.
The cosmic wheel is without form and boundless; it encompasses all matter, organic or inorganic, all forms of energy, and all forms of information. The matrix of all perceptions, experiences, and phenomena is enlightenment. Forms of the past may or may not be carried into the future, and these choices are not to be carried out by present-day humans.
The ordeal of a being lies in its inevitability to achieve immortality in the physical body. Realizing the emptiness of all phenomena and the essence of emptiness—radiance—is to take a step outside of the three realms towards non-existence. All matter is transparent to a being that has let go of the self, attachments, and ego. A bodhisattva, who has achieved spiritual perfection, thinks only about enlightenment and other sentient beings. The determination to achieve spiritual perfection, to realize enlightenment in the first half of life, and to offer a chance of salvation to all beings is to accumulate the greatest merit.
Many opposing forces are trying to block the path of the Enlightened One, the Messiah of all of humankind, the perfected one, whose correct path, indomitable will, and piercing insight set an example for all enlightened beings of the future. Reincarnated into all beings past, present, and future, connected with cosmic bodies from beyond this time and space, and forever connected to the Source of Creation, the perfected one offers salvation to those wishing to let go of the chains that tie them to ignorance in this lowly human place.
Slav associations proved the futility of these institutions by taking sides with the evils and manipulating public opinion against your master, his disciples, and our sacred teachings. Subsequent degeneration of the teachings of established religions and the irreparable changes and gaps in human minds and hearts created by hate, destruction, and injustice perpetrated on heavenly beings, angels, and gods will surely lead these people to ruins.
To think of yourself as a God and not follow God's Law [Shen Fa], one will surely go astray and lead all around him to ruin. This is the reason I am reluctant to meet with certain individuals who have proven their evil intentions in the past. Not willing to correct their thinking and understanding for a long time, they are bound to be demons and forces that act against the Divine Way.
These individuals created insurmountable obstacles in our way of purifying the cosmos. The perfection of thought and character needed for humankind to progress to the next level is unreachable under the strain of these individuals set on creating obstacles and chaos.
Incapable of ever changing their sinful nature, they even rejected the Savior and His Messiah in favor of lowly pleasures and went with the demons. Angels in heaven can wait a long time, yet when the time is up, Divine Law will manifest in natural or man-made disasters for humankind.
Persecution of an individual stems from the inability to gain insight into the nature of reality, thus finding a way that can be followed. In expounding on this doctrine, we are giving the common folk means to survive in completion and entirety, to progress to the next highest possible stage, and to set a correct path of understanding for the people of the future.
We are doing this carefully and deliberately so as to avoid any misconceptions or possible dangers inevitably tied to an endeavor of this magnitude. The time of contempt is now ripe to step up its game of allowing even more people to gain salvation and to cleanse the corruption from the hearts of the world's people.
