This document discusses contemporary Chinese art and the social transformations occurring in China. It begins by looking at artists such as Zhang Dali who documented the demolition of old neighborhoods in Beijing. It then discusses how millions of rural migrants moved to Chinese cities, changing the urban landscape. Various artists such as Liu Bolin, Chen Qiulin, and Yang Yongliang have responded to these changes through their artworks. The document examines themes of utopia, dystopia, and how artists explore the tensions between tradition and modernity in today's China.
A series of sermons will begin on September 22, 2013 at 10:45 AM at the Nortonville Gospel Chapel in Spring Lake, Michigan. The sermons will address topics from the Bible such as why to trust God, dealing with stress, addictions, eating disorders, anger, forgiveness, deception, and finances.
This document summarizes a presentation about economic research on diversity through international migration. It discusses several topics covered in the research, including measuring diversity through indexes, the impact of migration on wages and employment, productivity and innovation, and trade. It notes that research finds diversity has a small but positive impact on wages and employment, and that among firms that hire skilled immigrants, greater diversity of foreign workers enhances product innovation. Meta-analyses show an increase in the number of immigrants increases trade volumes by around 1-2%. The presentation concludes by discussing the relevance of this research for policies in New Zealand.

Economics is the study of how individuals and societies make decisions about using scarce resources to fulfill wants and needs. It can be studied at the macro level of whole economies or micro level of individual decision making. Resources are limited so choices must be made between alternatives, which involves tradeoffs. Production requires factors of land, labor, capital and entrepreneurship to transform inputs into goods and services. Firms aim to maximize profits by equating their marginal costs with marginal revenues from sales. Different economic systems approach these decisions in various ways such as traditional economies based on custom, command economies controlled by the government, and free market economies driven by supply and demand.
A great transformation has been unveiled. We will either lead in the transformation, or follow it closely, or get eliminated. There is no a fourth way for us to choose. Lifechanyuan will usher in a new era (the Lifechanyuan era) for the mankind on this earth after 2013.Lifechanyuan is the last course for human beings to learn and follow :
The new era of mankind — Lifechanyuan Era has unveiled its curtain. It is being unfolded in full swing, in terms of both theory and practice. Every member of mankind should get to know the connotation of Lifechanyuan Era as early and quickly as possible, otherwise, he or she will certainly lag far behind.
LIFE is a nonmaterial structure with spiritualism. If the nonmaterial structure of LIFE does not change, the attributes of LIFE will not change.
The quality of LIFE lies in the structure of LIFE. The better the structure, the higher the quality, and the better the space of LIFE, and the greater the freedom will be.
Lower level LIFE serves higher level LIFE, and all lives serve the Greatest Creator.
Life and death are superficial phenomena; LIFE has no life and death.
There are 12 chapter in this book:

Chanyuan-Celestial is the nurse of the Greatest Creator, is the angel coming down from the upper world to the Mortal World; and everyone bears the holy mission of initiating Lifechanyuan era.
Without the particular change, the total population of the world will reduce to about 190 million, among which Chanyuan-Celestial covers 63 million, after the year of 2013.
The definite numbers in different races are as following: the number of Chanyuan-Celestials in the white race covers about 2% of its total population; the number of Chanyuan-Celestials in the black people and Muslim people covers about 1%; the number of Chanyuan-Celestials in the yellow race covers about one in a thousand, among which Japanese covers about 5 in a thousand and the population cultivated by Chinese culture covers less than one in a thousand among the total population of the yellow race.
All Chanyuan-Celestials in the world belong to one family.
The real Christians, Buddhists, Muslims and Taoists are all Chanyuan-Celestials.
The words and deeds of all Chanyuan-Celestials are not driven by the worldly desires but by their own souls.
There are not any concepts of families, nationalities, countries, religions and political parties but only the scenes of the thousand-year world, the ten-thousand-year world and the Elysium world in the depth of Chanyuan-Celestial's soul.
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
After Buddha Sakyamuni and Jesus Christ,Xuefeng (Deiform Buddha) followed Revelation founding Lifechanyuan to give the last course for human beings to learn and follow since year 2003. This article is about his ideal.
Blinded by the dense fog of “civilization”, mankind has been straying further and further away from the great road in despite of the teaching of God and Buddha.
The people favored by God and Buddha are still miserably shackled in spirit and soul. In this bustling world overrun with desire for material acquisition, people with a purer and better heart are more prone to spiritual and psychological tortures, and cannot afford even a moment of peace and quiet.
I want to tell people that the plight of mankind does of lie in the material aspect but in the spiritual aspect.The wasteland of spirit and soul is the real source of human suffering.
Man’s worry originates partly from ignorance and partly from selfishness. Because of ignorance, we have invited demons in but shut the door against God and Buddha. Because of selfishness, we have chosen wickedness but abandoned righteousness.
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point. Lifechanyuan ,containing precious truths from the greatest Creator of universe,is the last course for human beings to learn and follow. The first course was given by Buddha. The second by Jesus Christ. This is the third, yet the last course.
Life Chanyuan will usher in a new era (the Life Chanyuan era) for the mankind on this earth, it also will harvest the “ripe crops” who 100% believes in Buddha and Jesus Christ. Life Chanyuan calls out all the people to walk on the way of the greatest Creator designed for us, for it is the only way that leads to happy lives on the Earth and everlasting happy live in the kingdom of heaven.
Life Chanyuan is for humble, teachable, mild-tempered, heart-ready-for-everlasting-life people. It is for those people who want to devote his or hers whole life to benefiting the mankind, meantime, want to have a happy life in the kingdom of heaven.
This article is about new information from Lifechanyuan!
This ppt give an general and brief introduction on Lifechanyuan,Lifechanyuan era,Chanyuan celestial and the kingdom of the greatest creator -Home without Marriage and Family!
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
After Buddha Sakyamuni and Jesus Christ,Xuefeng (Deiform Buddha) followed Revelation founding Lifechanyuan to give the last course for human beings to learn and follow since year 2003 and before 2013:
That one is inexplicably brought into the world as a result of Karma is called birth and life; that one rushes about blindly and departs the world unjustifiably is called death.
Both birth and death are inevitable.By understanding death and life, one can cast off life and death.
Death is only a surface phenomenon. Behind death is the transmigration of life. Some people will return to the human world after death, some will becomeanimals after death, some will enter the thousand-year world, and some will go to the ten-thousand-year world. Only a very limited number of people will go to the Elysium World after death.
Natural disasters do not make people despair, nor do hard material Lives. Rather, people only despair when they have mental and spiritual trauma and when they have the consciousness of seeing no better prospect.
Mankind must rise from despair:
The despair of life, the despair of mind, the despair of soul, and the despair of consciousness.
The document discusses several works of art including a bronze sculpture of Shiva as Nataraja from 1000 CE, Vincent van Gogh's Starry Night from 1889, and Juan de Valdés Leal's Vanitas painting from 1672. It explains that visual perception is subjective and influenced by factors like personal experience, culture, and knowledge. Works of art can mean different things to different people and our understanding can change over time as we learn more. The document emphasizes close observation of details in works of art to understand the artist's message.
This document discusses the concept of space from multiple perspectives. It describes space as having both positive and negative dimensions, with the positive space encompassing the material world and the negative space encompassing the non-material or "anti-world." It outlines 36 different dimensional spaces, ranging from more senior spiritual spaces to more junior spaces like the animal world. The document also discusses how space can change the forms and movement of objects within it, and how one's perception of space is limited by their level of consciousness and understanding.

Moderator: Assoc. Prof. Ph. D. Matei Georgescu, Spiru Haret University.
In this seminar, I will be exploring the mystery that visionary art reveals and how the visionary experience can change either an individual or the world. Visionary artists inspire us to look beyond the veil of cultural and linguistic limitations. At this unique time of evolving human consciousness the artificial boundaries in many areas between art and science are being erased. The brilliant Mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot has shown us how to perceive the world in a totally new way by introducing the concept of Fractal Geometry and a new way to understand consciousness similar to that of visionary and spiritual art. I will also discuss the unique visionary art of the Shipibo peoples of the Amazon. Their art unites the vibrations of light, colour, and sound into a new form. I will be presenting and discussing the works of the visionaryartists; Alex Grey, Paul Laffoley, David ‘Slocum’ Hewson, and Pablo Amaringo

Viktor Shklovsky argues that habitual perception causes us to lose sight of objects and see them only as vague outlines. We recognize things based on their basic characteristics rather than truly seeing them (paragraphs I-III). This process reduces objects to symbols and shapes our thought in an "algebraic" way. John Dewey proposes reconnecting art with everyday experience. He argues that separating art from its origins and contexts erects a wall around it. Art should restore continuity between refined works and ordinary life to be fully understood. Understanding ancient art like the Parthenon requires imaginatively connecting with the people for whom it was originally created.

We recognize things based on their basic characteristics rather than truly seeing them (paragraphs I-III). This process reduces objects to symbols and shapes our thought in an "algebraic" way. John Dewey proposes reconnecting art with everyday experience. He argues that separating art from its origins and contexts erects a wall around it. Art should restore continuity between refined works and ordinary life to be fully understood. Understanding ancient art like the Parthenon requires imaginatively connecting with the people for whom it was originally created.
As far as an individual is concerned, perfect human nature is a must for his/her LIFE to go to supreme LIFE space. As for the all human beings, it is the prerequisites to establish justice, peace and happiness of human value system.
Without perfect human nature, individual not only cannot get happiness, but also has no bright future; the mankind can never avoid the state of ups and downs in competition, confrontation and war.
The eight conditions of perfect human nature:
1.Revere the Greatest Creator, revere gods and Buddha, revere other people;
2.No mind of losing and winning, no mind of combating;
3.Revere nature;
4.Modest, trustworthy and honest;
5.Be sympathetic and compassionate;
6.Be able to adjust and stay calm in both good times and bad times;
7.Conform to the laws of nature; seek not the special and abnormal;
8.Love life, love labor.
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
Xue Feng ,Deiform Buddha,got the Revelation to build Lifechanyuan, the Noah’s ark in new era, in order to raise the rate of salvation to one or two hundredth in the catastrophe fore-and-aft 2013 and enter into Lifechanyuan era.
Lifechanyuan inherits and upholds the thinking and wisdom of Jesus Christ, Buddha, previous saints, prophet, and sagesis,and is the last course for human beings to learn and follow. (The first course was given by Buddha. The second by Jesus Christ. This is the third yet the last. ):
The Zero World, Heaven World, Elysium World, Cathode Black Hole Body, Thousand Year World and Ten Thousand-year are the senior spaces of life.
And Heaven is the general term for Thousand-year World, Ten-thousand-year World, Elysium World, and Celestial Islands Continent.
This is the brief introduction of Elysium World.
The Elysium World is the general term for earth universe (the universe inhabited by man is a small universe and is called the earth universe). The earth universe is so called in relation to other universes. The structure of the earth universe is a Taiji ellipsoid, which is called the Law Rotary Galaxy. The Law Rotary Galaxy contains 3000 Rotary River Galaxies, each of which contains 3000 Milk Way Systems. Each Milk Way System has 3000 solar systems. In another word, the Elysium World is composed of three thousand macro worlds, or nine million medium worlds, or 27 billion small worlds.
The Elysium World has ten continents, namely Lotus Continent, Borneo Continent, Kasyapa Continent, Yingwu Continent, Amita-Buddha Continent, Celestial Islands Continent, Three Worlds Two-way Continent, Moon Temple Continent, Gods Continent, and Supreme Authentic Wisdom Continent. Celestial Islands Continent is one of the continents of the Elysium World.
Celestial Islands Continent is the backyard of the Greatest Creator. It has 80 billion islands, each the size of the earth. Each island has a name. There is only one celestial being living on each island. Apart from the 30 billion islands that have been used by celestial beings as their homestead, the remaining 50 billion islands are not currently inhabited by any celestial beings. They are to be inhabited by people from the human world, Thousand-year World, and Ten-thousand-year World, who have succeeded in transforming themselves into celestial beings through cultivation.
FINAL, FINAL, FINAL copy of curator notes 2.13.14 (1)Doug Welsh
The curator introduces a gallery show titled "Journey of love, life, and return to the quiet place" presented by the Kappa Theta Phi Fraternity. The show is interpreted as representing existence on many levels through the artwork including compassion, creativity, celebration, struggle and passion. Two central orbs represent the universe and a place of spiritual rest. The show is intended to begin and end with these two orbs placed in the center. The curator provides descriptions and interpretations of each piece in the show representing various aspects of the human experience.
The meaning of Life is to pursue happiness, joyfulness, freedom and blessing. Anything meeting this standard is correct. Anything goes against this standard if confusion and pain. The value of Life lies not in what and what we can obtain and possess in the mortal world, but in sublime the quality of LIFE, improve the nonmaterial structure ultimately attain immortality.
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
After Buddha Sakyamuni and Jesus Christ,Xuefeng (Deiform Buddha) followed Revelation founding Lifechanyuan to give the last course for human beings to learn and follow since year 2003 and before 2013:
The rise of a civilization depends on the progress of science and technology, without which there would be no civilization.
Civilization needs the guidance of an eternal spirit and pursuit. Without the guidance of an eternal belief, a civilization will be formidable and may perish any time. When a nation or country has a relatively advanced productive force, it is likely to think little of everything else. Swelling in pride, it deems itself the Greatest Creator when looking around. It does what it wants and regards itself the savior of the world.
The consequence of swelling pride is that it tends to impose its will on other people, and the result is that it not only has destroyed others’ civilization but also brought about its own downfall.
Whether a civilization can develop sustainably depends on whether man has the Greatest Creator in mind.
1. The document discusses the power of stories and art to inspire humanity and influence society by touching people's hearts and souls.
2. It emphasizes following your passions and living a purposeful life, asserting that living purposefully is more important than any external measures of success or fears of risk.
3. The role of stories and art is to communicate invisible and inexpressible truths about human experience and reality in a way that provides meaning and perspective.
We are in the last days of this age. Year 2013 is the turning point.
After seven- thousand years exploration in the darkness, the mankind finally have Lifechanyuan.
Xue Feng ,Deiform Buddha,got the Revelation to build Lifechanyuan, the Noah’s ark in new era, in order to raise the rate of salvation to one or two hundredth in the catastrophe fore-and-aft 2013 and enter into Lifechanyuan era.
Lifechanyuan inherits and upholds the thinking and wisdom of Jesus Christ, Buddha, previous saints, prophet, and sagesis,and is the last course for human beings to learn and follow. (The first course was given by Buddha. The second by Jesus Christ. This is the third yet the last. )
The levels of LIFE are mainly divided into the following 16 categories according to the grades of spiritual nature of LIFE. The higher level of LIFE, the higher grade of freedom, the higher the living standard and quality of LIFE will be; and vice versa.
1st: the Greatest Creator
2nd:Gods
3rd:Celestial Beings and Buddha
4th:Devil
5th:Human being
6th:Flying Bird
7th:Flowering plants
8th:Livestock
9th:Wild LIFE on Land and Aquatic LIFE in the Sea
10th:Trees
11th:Insects
12th:Herbs and Crops
13th:Microorganism and Fungus
14th: Demons and Monsters in Hell
15th:LIFE in Frozen Layer
16th:LIFE in Inflamed Layer
Similar to Truth, goodness and beauty - the core value of human nature (20)
If human beings are not eliminated by nature, the future production and life mode of human beings will be the Second Home model. This is the only way for everyone to obtain physical and mental freedom.
The document describes 21 problems that will be solved by the "Mode of the New Oasis for Life" proposed by Lifechanyuan. These include eliminating domestic violence, religious conflicts, wealth disparities, and more. It claims this model has been developing for 10 years as evidence of Lifechanyuan's theories. It states that whether people wish it or not, humanity has entered the "Lifechanyuan Era" and everything is proceeding according to this plan.
In order to deal with these great changes and guide the rest people into the millennium, Xuefeng,who created Lifechanyuan, began to make theoretical preparations in 2002 and has been practicing them since 2009. Now,the theoretical and practical preparations are ready and are laid out in "Chanyuan Corpus" and "Xuefeng Corpus" and their essence has been condensed into the third edition of "800 Values for New Era Human Beings". The practice is the "New Oasis of Life" (the original Second Home) which was created by Lifechanyuan with the new production and life mode for humans.
When you encounter problems but have no idea how to deal with them, you should listen to the words and advice of others, but it is easy to become confused, injure yourself, or even follow the wrong path. This would result from your lack of an integrated and independent consciousness. Having your own opinion on everything will allow you to know how to deal with all affairs and your life will be left with few regrets.
As long as you want to remain a person, you will never find it or know who you really are. That is, if all your activities are centered around survival, catering to others, your society, your times, and traditional values, and if you still desire money, power, reputation, and sexual satisfaction in your mind and still want to be outstanding, to glorify and illuminate your family name, or to win glory for your homeland, as long as your mind abides “somewhere” or is tied by someone or something, and as long as you still have desire, demand, hatred, jealousy, resentment, fear, worry, and anxiety from within, then you will never find it either.
You want to be free in your heart but you must live within constraints because you are trapped within the program; put into the plot. Cattle are driven into sheds, pigs are driven into pens, and people are driven into circles of other people. Those who are supposed to dig holes, dig them; supposed to fly, fly; supposed to be herbivores, graze on grass; supposed to be carnivores, eat meat. All are hard-pressed to escape from the bonds of the Three Realms but can only be bound by the Five Elements. The script requires that ninety-nine percent of the people do not to know the truth because if it were widely known, then the play could not be performed.
Nine people out of ten are pretentious. So, most of the people we face are false, do not talk sincerely, and are hypocrites. We often face cognitive dissonance when our true selves conflict with our false ones. Our false selves tend to be pretentious, to cater to the times, the public, and others; our true selves have nothing to do with them, and that is Tathagata.
All causes of diseases lie in the nonmaterial structures of LIFE; if one’s structure goes wrong, then they will inevitable get ill or encounter some other disaster; if there is no problem with their structure, then there is no possibility of illness or disaster. The problem of structure is the problem of consciousness; if the consciousness is not pure then the structure is imperfect, but if the consciousness is orderly and pure then the structure must be perfect.
Lifechanyuan is neither a political organization, a religious group, a company, nor an enterprise. We are the home of human spirits and souls and will not establish any for-profit entity.

Harm and pain are created by people with egos. One is bound to be selfish with an ego and selfishness is bound to bring harm and pain to others, society, and nature. In return, that harm and pain will reflect back upon themselves. This will lead to vicious cycles and eventual destruction.
Our environment and climate continue to deteriorate and neither can be solved by the Kyoto Protocol or the Paris Agreement. The only way for us to save ourselves is to completely change our traditional modes of production and life.
I am the guide of Lifechanyuan from the Thousand-year world of heaven.
I have built several of them over the past decade including nine picturesque Xanadu homes in mainland China, however the Chinese government forcibly disbanded and destroyed all of them because they misinterpreted us as a religious organization. Now, I want to rebuild them in full accordance with the model of the Thousand-year world of heaven.
No matter how much or in what form you can help, please do it.
You would be giving alms formlessly and the returns would be inconceivable.
If you have been keeping up with global climate change and the dynamics of our political state, you must feel that the crisis is getting worse and worse. Tomorrow or death? It is sometimes difficult to predict which will come first as you retire for the evening.
It is too late to reverse climate change now, regardless of what efforts are made. However, mankind will not die out. Unfortunately though, not many people who are alive today will survive to that time and whether you will be one of them will depend completely upon your fortune, but even those who have fluky luck might not survive unharmed; causality is everything. We must rely on the laws and rules of nature.
This document introduces a new epoch that began on January 1, 2018, which will drastically change human society and life. It claims that all religions will unify and the world will become one family, where no one will take what isn't theirs. It says angels will present new thoughts and visions through a video channel called "The New Epoch" to help humans understand this change. It also mentions that humans will experience 10 years of suffering, but those who follow the new epoch teachings will be blessed and live in the new 1,000 year epoch. The document promotes following this new epoch for an opportunity and to avoid missing crises.
In order to protect nature’s ecological balance and in order to maintain our survival and development, we hope that governments and scientists who are involved with bioengineering will be extremely cautious. It would be better to suspend its development for a century than to act recklessly or to compete with each other for the most radical and extreme advancements.
Tao is the integration of all the rules and laws of the universe and includes the consciousness of the Greatest Creator. Therefore, the will of the Greatest Creator is reflected in the laws and rules of nature. If our thoughts, words, and deeds comply with the laws and rules of nature, then we will be rewarded by the Greatest Creator, but if they are against them, then we will be punished by It.
we must learn what LIFE is. LIFE is a non-material structure which shows its character through the consciousness, also called the soul. Actually, LIFE, soul, and spirit are the same thing. In order to talk about it more conveniently, I substitute consciousness for LIFE and when I speak of consciousness, I really mean LIFE.
LIFE’s passage is blocked right by clutter in the mind .
Why should we clean Life to keep it flowing smoothly?
The answer is obvious. When a water pipe is blocked, it is useless. When a room is stuffed, no one can occupy it. When the passage of LIFE is stopped, LIFE will lack of agileness and will slip down toward Hell, so it is necessary to clear the passage of LIFE.
If the human race as a whole fail to awaken to this last-minute danger and do not change our traditional production and life model immediately, the entire natural ecology will collapse within fifteen (15) to twenty (20) years, and the human race will all be in great danger.
During the last eight years, Lifechanyuan has been actively engaged in the exploration of and experimentation with a new production and life model, and has found a way to solve the conflict between natural resources and human consumption. Once again, I give warning to everyone today that we urgently need to live according to the production and life model created by Lifechanyuan.
If we do not act NOW, it will be too late.
First of all,the morality of which I speak here are Tao and Virtue. Tao is the consciousness of the Greatest Creator and the synthesis of all laws and rules of the universe. Virtue is the level of which LIFE is consistent with Tao, and as with love, it is only a state of Life.
Liberty is a state of mind with neither selfishness nor ego, and without worry, fear, responsibility, or obligation, but rather is acting freely and being unfettered. Without it, we can neither enjoy Life nor understand the meanings of Tao and Virtue. In other words, those who take no liberty remain confused.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

but the real truth, goodness and beauty is hidden among the dazzling art form.
There is nothing strange for a piece of two-dimensional canvas, but after the
painting of maestro, this flat canvas can display multi-dimensional space:
hovering clouds during daylight, many peaks scattering in different distance,
interspersed by the flowing water under the small bridges, people walking and
birds flying. All those infuse people with a sense of truth, goodness and beauty
which characterized with distant quiet and vast infinite. However, let’s take a
deeper look and ask whether this is the truth, goodness and beauty? Of course
not, it's just an art form, and the real truth, goodness and beauty is hidden in the
back of the picture –in the artist's heart and mind.
That is to say, the real beauty is hidden under the representation of art, and
everything outside is just the external art manifestation of the hidden truth,
goodness and beauty. Similarly, people's truth, goodness and beauty is
concealed in human nature, and the outward appearance is just the artistic
expression of the intrinsic truth, goodness and beauty.
We live in a fantasy art world; we flatter ourselves living truly; in fact, we
are just some embellishment on the canvas of artists. As the pigment is washed
off, the canvas will restore to a monotonous flat surface; after the change of
time-space, the "true" of us will restore to our original life status quo, and then
make a fresh start to another art form.
People have six perceptions as vision, hearing, olfaction, taste, touch, and
3. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
soul, and the first five perceptions perceive the world by the media of artistic
substances. What we perceive are just the external art forms of truth, goodness
and beauty, but not their essential characteristics; only the spiritual perception is
able to surpass the artistic material platform to directly perceive the world of
truth, goodness and beauty.
Ⅰ. The origin of the art form is truth
Everything perceived by vision, hearing, olfaction, taste, touch are not
truth but an art metamorphosis of it, and the real truth is implied at the origin of
this artistic representation in the big world.
Joe Smith wrote the word "human" on a blank sheet, and then erased it;
what did this process mean? This means that the word "human" on the blank
sheet is not true, but a kind of artistic expression originating from the heart of
Joe Smith; the real truth is not the word, but Joe Smith - the person; the word
"human" will not appear on the blank sheet without the person - Joe Smith; that
means as long as Joe Smith exists, even if the word "human" is erased, but there
will still be a word "human".
Is a flash in the pan true? Of course not, it is just another “human” written
on a blank sheet and then being erased; it is just an artistic expression of truth
hidden at the origin of epiphyllum and its truth implies in the LIFE structure of
this plant.
Is human true? Of course not, human is just an artistic expression form in
4. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
the life structure.
Are bacteria, insects, vegetation, birds and animals true? Of course not.
They are just different artistic expression forms in the life structure.
When we see the light of a lightning, the lightning is no longer in existence;
when we look up at the stars at night, among those emitting light stars some of
them may have disappeared; when we watch those vivid characters on the video
screen, some of the actors may have passed away; when we are complacent of
what we own, does it ever occur to you that these things will soon pass out of
existence.
We live in a virtual reality, and actually what we have seen are all false.
Those so-called illusory things, namely the things that the art world tries to
express, are true.
Visual truth is in line with the scientific and logical deduction, but it is very
absurd in the philosophical sense. Standing on a point and going straight ahead,
in the end one will unconsciously walk back to the start; its essential effect
equals to zero. Human society seems to be developing and moving to a higher
stage of civilization; in fact it is retracing its steps, and finally will return to the
starting point. Winter passes, and spring comes; until the bumper fall passes, it
will be back to winter again.
Four seasons continuously cycle one after another: fall is coming and the
weather is getting cold, a group of wild geese flying south and this occurs years
5. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
after years repeatedly. A person, from birth to death and from death to rebirth,
one world after another, is always in this way from reincarnation to
transmigration; he, walking and walking, seems to be moving forward, but
eventually he will return to the starting point.
Without the qualitative change, life can only cycle in a strange circle.
To avoid moving in circles, we have to focus on truth of life and neglect
the art forms of life; to understand truth, we have to be armed with the
unconventional thinking. Lifechanyuan begins with the "Unconventional
Thinking" in order to guide some people that they should not return to the
starting point of life, but should transit to a higher art form of life.
People seem like have found truth, but the fact is not; at least we can say
that ninety-eight percent of the people just live in the false art world and have
never touched the boundary of truth.
Suspended on a cliff with a withered vine in hands, a man would
instinctively try to climb up and return to the starting point. If I told him, "Let
go, let yourself fall". He would think I am non-benevolent. This is the gap
between Buddha and a profane man, is also a benchmark to examine the true
and false. What is the truth? The origin of art form is the truth. For everything,
as long as we strip off the surface and trace the source, we will eventually find
out truth. In fact, the Lifechanyuan has revealed truth before the people’s visual
field of spiritual perception; that truth is the Greatest Creator, and there is only
6. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
one truth in the universe; that is the Greatest Creator, and except him, all the rest
are his artistic expression forms.
What we mean by seeking truth is to seek the Greatest Creator. Human
beings have sought truth for thousands of years. Except having found the
Greatest Creator, Who dare say "I have found truth" yet?
To seek truth departing from the Greatest Creator is to make vain efforts, is
to deceive oneself and is to set bondage on human beings. Whether philosophers,
thinkers, artists, politicians, scientists, religious leaders, or any other person
who seek truth departing from the Greatest Creator, all their efforts will be in
vain and false, confusing the humanity.
Lifechanyuan expounds the Greatest Creator with hundreds of thousands of
words in order to reveal truth for human. However, when some people seeking
truth get up to “the God in the Bible is not the real Greatest Creator”, they are
confused. It is difficult for them to accept when their inherent thinking pattern is
overturned, and so they wanted to return to the starting point. It's just like a man
who hanging from a cliff with a withered vine; he desperately wants to seize the
withered vine and unwilling to let it go; as a result, he can not climb up the cliff,
nor can he get down on the ground; so he can only swing in the air.
“I get a range out of you crosswise but a summit, sidewise; Different
visages, from near or far, from low or high." The Bible, The Qur'an and Tao Te
Ching, the Buddhist Scriptures, Science, Marxism, Mao Zedong Thought as
7. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
such can only see either a ridge or a peak, either a distance view or see a close
shot; only organically integrating these fragments which are seen from different
profiles, we can see a probable panorama of truth. If we just grasp a part of it,
and then attack the rest, this is just like the blind men feel an elephant, which
can only leave us far from truth.
To seek truth and preserve truth is completely different from playing the
concept game or moralization; it involves the life trend of each person. The
water without a source is bound to dry up; a tree without root is bound to
corrupt; the heart without soul is bound to die; a man without spiritual
perception is bound to transmigrate in a fixed circle again and again.
Truth is the key elements in the core value of human nature. Without truth,
the person will be short of human nature. A man can not have a perfect human
nature if he does not have the Greatest Creator in his mind because his brutish
nature may break out at any time to harm others and nature. Is it possible to
have a good future if a man is without human nature? It is just a day dream!
Someone will inevitably argue: "The ideas of Xuefeng are all rubbish,
nonsense and fart because some senior officials and millionaires never worship
the Greatest Creator but live a more elegant and pleasant life than those who
worship the Greatest Creator". That is right. There are a lot things in this world
that can be easily mixed the false with the genuine, but we have to understand:
the smaller the specific gravity, the easier of floating and fluttering; for a plant,
8. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
the faster of growing, the shorter of life span; the smaller of energy, the easier of
taking shape; the more of the gain, the greater of the loss, the more enjoyment
in this life, the more miserable in afterlife.
We often praise that the masterwork of art is very life-like, but we never
say that the masterwork of art is truth, because art is just a metamorphosis of
truth. We praise all the scientific achievements are very close to truth, but we
never dare to say that scientists have found truth, because science is just one
way to seek truth. We praise some people are immortals, saints, but we
definitely dare not say that they are the embodiment of truth, because the
component part of maintaining truth and safeguarding truth in their humanity is
just a little more than that in the common people’s.
Is everything we can see real? For an instant the discrepancy has been
more than one hundred thousand miles; everything has changed in a blink; is it
true? Truth is invariable, and the variant is not truth. It’s better for us to put
more component part of truth in our human nature.
II. To maintain the orderly and harmonious mechanism of the art form is
goodness
The entire material world is the artistic expression form of the recessive
truth, goodness and beauty, while the mechanism that safeguards these art forms
to be orderly and harmonious is goodness. Without goodness, everything would
be unordered, inordinate, ugly, unharmonious and unbearable. The Greatest
9. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Creator designs the order of the universe in accordance with the law of supreme
goodness, If we observe the world around us carefully, it is not difficult to find
the orderliness and concordance of the big world: voluminous celestial bodies
run harmoniously without hindering others; atmosphere and atmospheric
composition of the different gases coexist together and form a harmonious
whole; oceans, rivers, lakes and streams locate in their own position and coexist
harmoniously on the earth; mountains, valleys, plains and hills and
harmoniously constitute a beautiful landscape painting; the underground
microorganisms , the insects and animals on the ground, fish in rivers and lakes
and birds flying in the sky all coexist harmoniously in a total vertical crossing
living space for LIFE, which is a masterpiece of the great goodness, is the ideal
and state of the goodness. For the individual of human members, the desire and
behavior of trying to keep the harmonious mechanism of the big world and
maintain the orderliness and concordance between oneself with the surrounding
LIFE and the ecological environment where LIFE depends on are goodness.
Specifically speaking, all the mentality that is full of the reverence to the
Greatest Creator, the reverence for life and the reverence to nature is goodness;
all the conducts that try to safeguard the Greatest Creator, to maintain order, to
love life and protect nature are goodness.
To examine Human (Chinese Ethic People as an example) according to the
law of goodness (order and harmony), we can find some unkindness in our
desires and behaviors.

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Looking back the history, we will find those emperors who did not awe
God or Heaven were unkind, and there would be the frequent disasters, social
unrest, the rampant robbers, the ubiquitous complaints and the unable surviving
masses when those emperors governed kingdoms; on the contrary, if emperors
awed God and Heaven, there would be good weather, all things prosperous,
honesty prevailing throughout society, people living happily, social harmony
and peace. This indicates that good pratyaya grows good fruit and bad pratyaya
results in evil consequence.
Comparing the leaders of the two countries(China and the United States),
we find a phenomenon of a good and evil retribution:U.S. presidents, in the
oath of office, always place himself humbly under the Greatest Creator, and the
result is that the U.S. economy develops rapidly with social prosperity, the
people affluence and everyone feeling happy; in view of China, the previous
leaders, in their minds, arrogantly placed themselves in the position of being a
savior and never believed in the Greatest Creator, and the result is the
suppression of human nature, the suppressed human rights, freedom giving way
to power, terror haunting around. In view of the recent facts, the suppression on
the personages of democracy and freedom, the rights deprivation on the religion
believers, the flagrant violations on the national people's property, the
indifference and control on the petitioners highlighted non-goodness of the
Chinese leaders and the unkindness of the government conduct.
Economic development and material wealth can not conceal the essence of
11. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
unkindness; there are always some people who think it is big goodness to solve
the subsistence problem; in fact, the problem of food belongs to the property of
animals, and there are the elements of free-speaking and free-pouring in the
property human; if people have lost the right of freely expression their ideals,
beliefs, thoughts, lost the right to move freely, and then the whole implication of
goodness is just regarded as the food problem; then, what is the difference
between human beings with the animal in a cage? I raised two dogs, and I fed
them enough meat, food and pure clean water pumped from the well everyday; I
also allowed them to run and chase unscrupulous on the evergreen lawn
surrounded by trees; could it be said that my two big dogs have shared human
rights? No, it is just the dog rights at most.
Misgovernment makes the people rebel, because the people have to rebel;
but the revolt is definitely not goodness; all the actions such as revolt, rebellion,
robbery, deprivation, massacre, fighting to overthrow the dictatorship and
eradication as such have destroyed the order and all these actions are not
goodness.
All the mentality and actions such as launch a vengeful counterattack,
scores settlement, awaiting the revenge, malicious attack, wantonly slandering,
spreading rumors, stirring up trouble, encouraging hatred, provoking dissension,
splitting nation, personal attacks and fame slandering are not goodness.
All the large-scale movements combining culture with politics are not
12. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
goodness; all those movements such as the May Fourth Movement, the June
Fourth, and the Great Cultural Revolution destroyed goodness of human nature
and natural mind, in which countless good people were treated unjustly, through
which people became more and more cunning, selfish.
Actions of destructing the natural environment, regardless of what
high-sounding name that bannered, are not goodness because their essence is a
prodigal son’s behavior, which aims at destructing the homeland and foundation
of descendants.
All the mentality and actions such as jealousy, hatred, manufacturing fake
to reap huge profits, counterfeiting brand-name, stealing others achievements,
oppression, exploitation, fraud, extortion, blackmail, theft, murder, arson, abuse,
loan sharking, adding insult to injury are not goodness.
All the plots invented or created on the battlefield, officialdom, market,
casinos, situation related with love aim at entrapping, blowing, weakening and
destroying the others are not goodness.
Goodness is a scale to measure of a person’s human nature. To find out if a
person is goodness or not depends on whether he can keep harmonious
relationship with the world around him; once the disharmony appears, at least
one part, and even two or more parties are non-goodness.
Goodness can be classified to greater goodness and common goodness.
The greater goodness is the property of the Greatest Creator, Gods and Buddha,
13. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
and the common goodness is the property of saints, sages and wise men. The
big benevolence seems heartless; the big goodness seems evil; keeping Satan,
predators and designedly destroying part of the human are conducts of the high
goodness, which is difficult to be understood according to the common sense; to
maintain the orderliness and harmony of human and nature is just to conduct the
low goodness; human can only preserve the low goodness and should not
conspire the high one, otherwise human will certainly take the road of demons.
If politicians are unkind, it will inevitably lead to the popular discontent; if
thinkers are unkind this is bound to misguide human; if scientists are unkind,
they are bound to become the accomplices fighting against human; if
religionists are unkind, they are bound to terrify human with terror; if writer are
unkind, the noveletish works are bound to pollute the human’s soul; if artists are
unkind, this is bound to make the antics distort humanity.
Goodness is also a state; the nice ideal comes from the wish of goodness; I
wish everyone has goodness, and everyone has a nice ideal.
Ⅲ. The harmony, proportion, collocation and symmetry of art forms are beauty
The art form of nature (including human) is designed by the Greatest
Creator in light of the law of beauty. The law of beauty is the harmony,
proportion, collocation and symmetry, and everything from the configuration of
the celestial bodies to the outward appearances of plants, from the crystal
structure to the different shapes of animals, from thick and thin of color to the
14. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
light and shade of light embodies the harmony, proportion, collocation and
symmetry, gives an infinite beauty for visual sense.
What the sense of beauty brings people are comfort, safety, happiness, joy,
delight , tranquility and peace, but the forms being unsuitable to the sense of
beauty bring people with nausea, anabole, dizziness, anxiety, anxiousness,
depressing, worry and terror. The towering cliffs, tilted building, disabled body,
grotesque objects, farfetched environmental layout, drawings and sculptures
composed by unmatched proportion, strange sounds and music without any
melody, the dyed yin and yang head of young people and clothing with
asymmetric patterns on left and right sides, etc. make people fretful and
uncomfortable.
Graceful art form and environment endows LIFE with longevity, but the
ungraceful art form and environment makes LIFE short and even leads to
suicide.
In view of human society, a charitable king, the high efficient government
agencies with few but good staff, the management mechanism with a pyramid
model will impress a sense of beauty on people; however, a management
mechanism with tripartite balance of forces, overstaffed organization, inefficient
work, no one in charge and interference of many other departments can only
give people a sense of chaos, disorder, blindness, depression and sense of
foreboding.
15. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
In view of families - the cell of society, showing respect for the aged and
love for the young, the harmonious couples, elders and juniors each in their
places, female co-ordination, friendly neighborhood and self-effacing for
siblings will bring people with the beautiful sense of tranquility and peace;
however, the families characterizing with the insatiable senior, irreverent junior,
weak male, strong female, hostile neighborhood, suspicious and vengeful
brothers and sisters bring people with a sense of foul atmosphere,
incomprehension, reversion of yin and yang and disarrangement.
In view of the human individual, a man with proud temper, rash character,
bad fortune and poor wisdom prefers seeking quick success and instant benefits,
but he always conspires a great cause; a man speaks rudely, stirs up enmity and
is not good at his own job, but he always makes random comments on others; a
man ignores his proper occupation, but he always wants to incite and abets
others so as to start a campaign; a man always gives up halfway, sticks to his
guns, worships nothing, changes by day after day and seldom reflects on
himself, but he always blames that others’ life proportion is inharmonious,
asymmetric and short of beauty.
The advanced state of people’s ideological level is the state of supreme
goodness and supreme beauty. What they called saints refer to the people whose
the ideological level have reached the ultimate state of goodness and beauty. We
can always tell the dignity and humbleness of a man’s soul depending on the
16. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
proportion of the goodness and beauty that his whole human nature occupied.
The appreciation and pursuit of beauty is the eternal and maximum driving
force to promote human to move on towards the civilization. In order to seek
the sense of beauty, some scientists, artists, philosophers, thinkers, writers and
religionists begin their active learning, exploring and progressing. It is
absolutely not simply to gain the powers and material benefits that they are
engaged in their careers.
The beauty of all is added by the Greatest Creator. To safeguard the beauty
is the bounden duty for the Gods and the Buddha, the ideal and pursuit for the
saint, the sage and the wise men, wishes for the ordinary people.
Beauty is one of the core values of human nature; only when beauty is in
human nature, can the LIVES bloom brilliant flowers and bear rich fruit; if a
person abandons the beauty, his life would wither, and his life journey would be
calamitous.
Wish everyone has beautiful human nature.
Ⅳ. Endurance
A blade on heart forms the Chinese character of forbearance, which is a
way of humiliatingly seeking the existence in a desperation state. The Greatest
Creator does not require us to live disgracefully. If we regard forbearance as an
excellent quality of human nature, we would have completely departed from the
principle that of well- being which is to say we have given up the freedom and
17. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
human rights and we just serve as the role of cattle, horses, pigs and dogs.
Simply asking people to endure is the smoke ball released by the autocratic
power and robbers in order to maintain their own vested interests and is the
poison alluring people to commit suicide. If we break down the forbearance into
suffering, tolerance and enduring humiliation in order to carry out an important
task, which appear in the humility and reconciliation, in the pursuit of truth and
in the devotion of cause, that is the symbol of goodness and beauty; but if we
submit to humiliation, bear our shame and ignore it pitilessly in order to survive,
we will indeed become a symbol of cattle, pigs and dogs.
I often queue up at oversea. If someone wants to cut in line, others would
scold and stop him immediately; in this way everyone stands in line with a good
order. But in China, if someone (especially a big guy with a frightening face)
cuts in the line, few people would stand out to stop him. Why does this happen?
For people have learnt to forbear and learnt to survive disgracefully.
In order to survive disgracefully, and many Chinese people have played the
forbearance to its extreme: they are indifferent to hooligans molesting women
on the street, the evil hand of the thief reaching into the pockets of others, those
evil factory owner discharging toxic water into the river, watching the selfish
lazy person to brazenly dump the rubbish in public places, seeing the people’s
asset entering the private pockets in disguised form, seeing a bully under the
protection of a powerful person insulting the weak, seeing the merchants who
18. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
are obsessed with money manufacturing the toxic food, seeing the marketing
fake products, seeing……People do not feel ashamed about all those things.
They endure the sufferings and have self-improved and owned some profound
forbearing intension. So human nature has forfeited, and everyone has become
the dignified monks who seem to be otherworldly.
Comrades, my fellow citizens and church members: Please, forbear it! To
forbear it forever; to forbear it until the ground and the sky are reversed; to
forbear it until the right and wrong are confounded; to forbear it until the ghosts
and monsters are rampant; to forbear it until the Goblins in the Pantry; to
forbear it until the sun and the moon are dimmed; to forbear it until the seas run
dry and the rocks crumble; to forbear it until one is put in a coffin and sent to
crematorium, until all our free and nice life being buried by ourselves.
The famous dictum of the universe is truth, goodness and beauty, in which
I do not find the forbearance. Tao is running strictly according to the law of
LIFE. Going against the Tao, one is certain to be punished severely, whereas,
following the Tao, one is bound to be rewarded. The Greatest Creator will
definitely not prefer forbearance; neither will the Gods nor the Buddha.
Forbearance is the violation and desecration of LIFE, is the rebellion and
destruction of human nature.
Shall we continue to forbear?
Ⅴ. Conclusion
19. Xuefeng Corpus - Garden of Soul
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Truth, goodness and beauty are the origin of the art forms in the world, the
attributes of the Greatest Creator and the core values of human nature. Truth is
the origin of the art form; goodness is an orderly and harmonious mechanism to
safeguard the art form; beauty is the harmony, proportion, collocation and
symmetry of the art form. The combination of the universe is the combination
of truth, goodness and beauty without which there will be no the universe.
Human is a kind of art form as well as a kind of art metamorphosis of truth,
goodness and beauty. Truth, goodness and beauty are have the features of
immutability, but all the rest are just works of art which will change along with
the changes of time and space.
The lofty ideal is a kind of ideological level in seeking and safeguarding
truth, goodness and beauty. This ideological level can make a man’s LIFE a
continuing transit to the eternal truth, goodness and beauty, and will eventually
win the eternity of LIFE.
The essential difference of the Ignorant person, the Laity, the Mortal, the
Sage and the Saint lies in the different remaining proportion of the ingredient in
its own human nature; the fewer the ingredients, the more likely to locate in the
state of animal world; the more the ingredients, the more likely to move towards
the Sage, the Celestial, to become the Celestial Being, the God and the Buddha.
This is not the far-fetched false talk, as long as there is the relatively perfect
quality of truth, goodness and beauty in our human nature. Isn’t it difficult to
20. Seek Truth from Facts, and Tell Truth
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
become a Celestial Being?
The thousand-year world, the ten-thousand-year world and Elysium world
are the perfect world of truth, goodness and beauty. If we can reach the perfect
standard of truth, goodness and beauty, it is not difficult for us to enter the
high-level LIFE space.
Little strokes fell great oaks; constant effort brings success; the pursuers of
truth, goodness and beauty need continuous gnosis and exploration, continuous
insight into a profound theory.
Things will be easily settled when conditions are ripe; whether we can
reach the perfect world of truth, goodness and beauty completely depends on
the secret of nature.
