Part 2 of 10 of "What is Life" is the Admonition Two written by Lao Mu as follows:
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 Boddhisattvas and Immortals have descended to the mortal world to convert human and receive Tao so that they can go back home.
Heaven is great, Earth is great but the greatest is the Heavenly Decree of Lao Mu. Those who follow the Heavenly Decree will be prosperous, those who disobey will suffer and the difference is like Heaven and the Underworld.
Tao of Heaven is made available to everyone the first time since the beginning of this cycle of Heaven and Earth. To encounter this rare event in thousands of years is truly a mystic blessing. Tao of Heaven brings salvation to the kind and the good in this world, to the deities above and the souls of the deceased below. It transmits the mystic and marvelous secret of Heaven at this last moment. By initiation of Tao, one unlocks the golden lock and the indestructibility of the True Self emerges.
First, the ancient Hand Seal, bestowed as the original proof at the soul mountain is transmitted.
Second, the Right Portal, the essence of the White Yang Dharma is pointed.
Third, the Wordless Sutra, the mystical spell that reaches Heaven is transmitted.
This is known as the Heavenly Three Treasures.
When the wordless sutra is repeated silently, all Immortals, Buddhas and the Saints will come to protect the children.
Those who received Tao of Heaven have their names registered on the roll in Heaven and have their names removed from the roll in the underworld, transceding the cycle of birth, death and rebirth.
By transcending in one step, this is the Supreme Greater Vehicle, the simplest and the most direct way. Discard this mortal flesh and let your immortal soul live eternally in the Kingdom of Bliss. These are not empty talks but supported by real evidences. Even the body which is a false image can serve as a proof. The corpse does not stiffen in winter nor decay in foul smell in summer and appears alive.
Everything Lao Mu said is true. Everywhere miracles are shown to wake up the lost and Heaven relies on humans to propagate the truth. Heaven and human unite and work with flexibility and it is difficult to select true candidates who can shoulder great missions among the faithful. For this reason Lao Mu descend the Ten Admonitions now to urge the righteous souls to comprehend the message.
Extend your merciful hearts and well intentional words to patiently teach others. You must take the great vow to reach Heaven. The most important is to practise diligently, establish yourself and then help others. Those who are hypocrites will fail into the sea of suffering.
The highest peerage with the seat of thousand lotus leaves is built in the mortal world. Without real merits and true good deeds you cannot return to the Heavenly Palace even if you are the reincarnation of immortal. Do not delay in practising as the responsibilties are tremendous. The wise can clearly exhort the volunteer workers, keepers of Altars and leaders to have strong determination to work extra hard.
Think about the ways to ferry the lost and aboard the shore. Think about ways to urge others to bring forth their true hearts. The more merits you accumulate, the more dangerous you situate, so always be cautious.
By following Lao Mu's Admonition, you can ascend to Heaven and enjoy eternal bliss.
